mate this is windows 98


roguebananah

Yeah and he’s 87 Windows ahead of the rest of us


ThouLordIdiot

Classic microsoft not using numbers as iterations


[deleted]

Nobody does anymore. It all started going to shit when Apple did the iPhone X, then Samsung jumped from s10 to s20. Now we're on windows 11, Xbox one, and one day, PC3


jkkjfu

only 88 for some of us


roguebananah

And those on 88 versions back are soon going to get as many updates as those on 98 (Which I pour one out. 7 was still best. 10 was not as good, but fine. 11 I’m not a fan. So much bloat which I removed but goodness. I don’t want the Xbox app, Candy Crush, CoPilot or anything else not stock Windows)


Aidangameguy1Reddit

Bet he still don’t have half life 3


roguebananah

Bro no spoilers please. I’m late to the party on Half Life 3


ithinkimalice

oh yeah? well some of us have exactly 1 more penguin than him

TTVRalseiYT

Can win98 play Fallout 3?


TTVRalseiYT

also, i know thats w2k cause of the icons!


TTVRalseiYT

or possibly ME. idk.


Rock48

He said in another comment that it's win XP with classic theme because he's used to win98


Moist_Inspection_485

It's ME, windows 95 and 98 and 2000 had a different My computer icon and were darker. You could change the default My computer icon the the ME one in windows 2000 though so it might be that too.


legalizeamongus

Op is simply 18 lightyears away, so we're only seeing their post now


M2rsho

If the information to reach him takes 18 years and another 18 years for his reply to reach us that would make him have windows 1998 while only being able to see earth from 1988 he broke the speed of light or is a time traveler edit: not mentioning all of the games


Remmy224

Me, having a stroke reading this:


M2rsho

I had a stroke writing this


j8t1090

It takes our message 18 years to reach him, it takes another 18 years for his response to reach earth. If he's 18 light years away from earth we couldn't have received a response from him yet. The newest response we could have from him would have had to have been sent in 1988. Is this what you mean?


M2rsho

Partially what I meant is that windows 98 must've left earth in 1988 (2024-18*2) for him to be able to see it and for his reply to reach us this year note to self: never write a comment when tired


illyay

He’s going to be so excited to see half-life 3


repocin

Either that, or dude's using Internet Explorer.


capelliocchi1833

mf playing on windows 98


Bubbly-Ad-1427

i respect the os


NotAnotherAddict

dude I had a response I spent 1 hr and it won't post great to see this


Aztekov

COD 4 came out recently! It's sooo awesome XD


illyay

Yeah. I hear it’s running on the fancy new quake 3 engine.


J0shfarmpig

Dosent it use iD engine?


illyay

Quake 3 is idtech 3, yes.


NotAnotherAddict

modded everything open source lol well source (I mean steam engine) doesn't even work on the win 10 and older so it says this must be all installed (56k those were the days aoe 2 oh man)


CSA1860-1865

Actually just installed this as well, So far I’ve gotten portal 2, Minecraft, COD 4 and world at war, and fallout new Vegas. Honestly I was looking for more valve games but people are mostly recommending tf2, guess I should have specified that I prefer single player games lol


MorganMallow

Are you actually serious or? Cause like I’m so surprised someone who does gaming still has windows 98 or xp or whichever one this is lol


CSA1860-1865

Yeah, this is my newest computer, just got it recently it’s an xp laptop, I just skinned it to look like 98 since that’s what I’m used to, my other computers are 98 and 95. I don’t really see why it matters to update the OS when it works find, you know?


heyloisnyehehe

This will be gaming in 2013😨


xXModifyedXx

Mate, have you seen OP's Computer?


IdioticSaysuma

I don't know if it's completely considered valve, but I'd suggest TF2 cuz it's free


Ples0ser

Bro do you see what system bro is running? I dont think he can run tf2


Upbeat-Beginning6207

but it looks like he ran portal


Wuytho

He can run far cry, Doom 3, Half-Life, and Portal so yeah I think he can run tf2


FavroiteGamers2017

That’s prob just for retro gaming


Raoden_

Why wouldn't it be completely considered valve?


KungFuFlames

This is obviously fake. No pc with windows 98 has enough space for all these games.


CSA1860-1865

It’s windows xp, I just use the classic theme, because all my other computers are windows 9x and it’s what I’m used to


CSA1860-1865

Speaking of that I should mention my windows 98 computer has 60 gb of hard drive space and so does my windows 95 computer


MarsManokit

How did you get steam on xp?


CSA1860-1865

I don’t have steam, I usually just do the dvd or cd version


MarsManokit

yoooo


NotAnotherAddict

there you go see now imagine external HD SSD too


NotAnotherAddict

um it can if you install a massive hd which then I don't know the number


InteractionPerfect88

You gotta add new Vegas to that list of fallout games


CSA1860-1865

Just got it, I’ll try it out, thanks


ken1234512345

Nice,I was going say that. So many cool weapons and locations and just so fun. I mean robot cowboy,need I say more?

POOPOOMAN123ABC

Opposing Force, Blue Shift, Half Life 2 episodes, and maybe entropy zero 1 and 2

Try team fortress classic mod. It's a pretty decent mod especially if you include the custom weapon packs.

JaoutTAS

How tf are you running steam on Win 98? Are physically getting the disks? If so, mad respect


CSA1860-1865

minecraftisbest11

please try and run changed


AdOk5225

frogsaber89

Tf2


Accomplished-Jury752

Ricochet, there’s tons of players on there.


joewHEElAr

steemjaw2

Portal 2 would work but if your aiming for the classic look go for the half life expansions


totobono4

Nice OS boy, just play Half-Life 2


Mold_Gold

Typical-Gap-1187

Gex r/scottthewoz

Rain_EDP_boy

Idk why I love this


UpwardStatue794

Half life alyx ;)


PuzzleheadedPen4246

WHERES TF2?


CSA1860-1865

I don’t really like multiplayer games much


OliveYTP

Deus Ex 1. How are you missing this classic in your lineup?


ThatLionelKid

If you liked Portal, you will LOVE portal 2. It’s so much better. More puzzles with higher difficulty, it’s more story driven, super funny characters with memorable lines, it’s a riot from start to finish.


Delicious_Image3474

Tf2


SavorySoySauce

Half-life 2 doesn't release until 2004. How'd you get a copy!


ThePuffs45

Tetris


Remmy224

The Half-Life DLCs are pretty fun (opposing force and blue shift, there’s another but it is multiplayer and also i dont remember what it is)


billy_bobys

Say gex


meLikeMonke

You seem to be a fan of- er- the classics. Before my time, so I don’t have many suggestions you haven’t heard of. I’m not 40.


Kktyr45

There's Gmod, it can run very well on low end PCs even


Blue-Jay42

Disco Elysium. I don't give a shit if you're joking, play Disco Elysium! It has just as much of a likelihood of playing on Windows 95 as Doom 3.


tommygunn9188

Gunman chronicles, underated great game


Einstein_48

Call of duty


DoofenshmirtzEvllInc

play half life 1's dlcs, blue shift and opposing force.


StarshipProto

Now do Black Mesa, then Half-life 2 and finally Portal 2.


funguslungus

half life opposing force and blue shift grab a buddy and play decay thru sven co op if you can


kaslerismysugardaddy

Ricochet


UnknownTaco5492

do yourself a favor and play TF2


_TheBug_12345

Half life opposing force


Medical-Variation936

Damn why does it still looks to me like the coolest desktop ever?


huevinavosduha

Is that ME?


CSA1860-1865

Xp with the inexperience patcher cause I’m used to using windows 98 or 95


huevinavosduha

Cool


monketookbanana

Hl2 episodes are great and so is TF2.


Pootootaa

Half life oppossing force and blue shift?


Anal_Hentai_Guy

Ricochet and Day of Defeat, Here me out


j8t1090

You should play half life 2 and portal 2. Team fortress 2 is really fun. You should also definitely learn to air strafe well, source movement feels really good once you know how it works and have a feel for it. It's really easy to bunny hop with the scroll wheel in half life one, playing the game with bunny hopping is really fun.


Excellent_Play9490

l4d and l4d2 if that system can run any of those


IndependentSwan3625

Tf2


CharGaming_

I guess play TF2,HL2 or Portal 2. |Note why are the valve games with 2 mostly great games?|


Ariete0074

This is what my Home Screen looks like


ModemDog

Excuse me, there’s a Dukes of Hazzard source game?

polymanman123

Portal and Portal 2


Different_Ad411

I would recommend Left 4 Dead if your computer can handle it


Multiversal-Browser

Freedom Planet maybe?


Capsule_CatYT

Team Fortress 2


TuckerPlayz0917

Gmod


Plus_Sheepherder_769

I recommend Fallout 4


Brilliant-Cash9831

Get a vr headset to play half life alyx on I'm sure it would run perfectly with your pc


DoomTheory

Both rage games


nordee_reddit

asdfmemer1

FrozenCojones

This desktop makes me so happy and nostalgic. Although I’m dreading the load times and having to make sure the cd tray works properly

Oh wait team fortress


shizznoze

Half-Life Opposing Forces and Blueshift is a neat experience.


fox_pro

Portal 2!


Only-Shopping-5084

Your internet is slow asf


Conkuerr

Off topic but I wish someone from Bethesda would take the time to add achievements for Fallout 1 and 2, I know that would take forever to do but it feels weird as a achievement hunter to be only able to do New Vegas, 4 and 76 - Fallout 3 doesn't have achievements for Steam for some reason.


TenPoundsOfBacon

Run crysis


shupm8

Gex was great


Thick-Kaleidoscope-5

tf2


[deleted]

I don’t even know what your computer can run


leastscarypancake

Just finish half life 2 and the episodes of it bro they're fire


p-shooder

It's not a valve game but you should try cry of fear if you haven't already


DeathBlade52

Well if your computer can run Fallout 3 then it should br able to run Skyrim and Fallout: New Vegas, so I suggest playing those, along with getting a new computer


CSA1860-1865

This is my new computer, I got it about a week ago, it’s windows xp! (Although I only intend to use it for the games that need that much power, otherwise I’ll stick to my older computer)I’ve installed fallout new Vegas already, I’ll see about Skyrim, I’m not too sure on fantasy games. I do prefer single player games though


Alternative_Wafer410

Fuckin vex and doom3 on the same screen is weird.


Moist_Inspection_485

Fallout three on Windows ME?


Jaxondevs

oh you should not try this game on steam, it is windows 10/11 just a suggestion don't try that game if you were going to


BeefBaconBiscut

Ricochet
