Pushing the Limits

It’s nice to see that people are still pushing the limits with interesting technology. I had grown a bit worried in recent years, with the demo scene looking a bit worn down by 2000.

(Checking out some of the usual places gives me some new hope that the demo scene might not be entirely dead afterall, although this doesn’t bode well for one of the awesome groups from the height of the scene.)

Just for nostalgia’s sake, here are two of the awesome demos from back in the day:

Crazy memories! Of course, you’ll have to find a working version of DOS (preferably a version prior to 6) to run them, but that’s half the fun. Bonus points for anyone that can run Second Reality on the computer it was designed on - a 386 with a Gravis Ultrasound.
