I still play it, although I don't know how to get it to play games online over XP.

I do too, but the lag gets out of hand for some reason.

The engines were open sourced some time ago, if I remember correctly a couple of them supported network play.

Man I miss those old games.

Yhea old games are cool I really don't bother to play newer games with a few exceptions. one game I miss is Hexen (also from ID) I liked Doom 3 but I hope they do a better job if they decide to do a Doom 4. Oh and I forgot to dad I am playing a original doom with a windows 98 launcher and it has a option to play it on-line if anyone has the same set up and fancies a game please let me know.
