- demo MS-Dos Second Reality by Future Crew
- It was the year 1993. I remember a high school friend of mine handing me a couple of disks with the words "Second Reality" on the label and thinking, "What the heck is this?"
I did not quite know what to make of the title, but when my as the blue landscape scrolled with the opening credits, my AdlibFM accustomed ears experienced the greatest of shocks. A digital string section blasted through my 8-bit Sound Blaster card.
I soon realized that it wasn't a game, but a demonstration of computer graphics, and remember thinking to myself, "Why couldn't my PC games look and sound this good?"
Second Reality is one of the finest pieces of 486 nostalgia I know of. It's appeal is based on its balance between imagery and music, and timing. It is like a journey, it conveys emotion.
There may never be another 2nd Reality for me.
However, that doesn't mean that one of you may not be creating a 2nd Reality for someone else. - rulezadded on the 2002-02-17 11:00:08
