I remember when I was 14 and was playing Air Warrior on AOL and it was summer. Most of my friends were gone on vacation, my mom was gone with my aunts for a trip and I had the house to myself. I prepared myself a bunch of snacks, moved the TV into the game room and took a fresh shower at 7am. I sat down at the computer, turned on my Packard Bell (with a mega-sized hard drive of 600mb and whopping fast processor of 386) and started up Air Warrior.
I think it was about 36 hours later I finally stopped playing the game. This was with intermittent breaks of using the bathroom, eating, showering, etc. I remember going to bed and sleeping for about 12 hours. Was it worth it? Looking back now, probably not but at the time I had a huge blast doing it!
