It twas the time of our lives the year 2004. The release of unreal tournament 2004. Where were you what were you doing?

Never played Halo 2 but CS:S and HL2 + UT made this a memorable time for me.

That's such a long time ago.  Trying to remember when I got broadband, 2004 or 5 I think.  It was after that I discovered UT.  Might have been playing Age of Mythology, that came out about then.  I remember more about what computer hardware I had then (P4C o/c to 3.2, Geforce 4200Ti, customised low noise case that I still own) then what I played on it.  I was one of the early members of the Titan UT2004 community :)

Ah yes remember the ATI vs Nvidia battles. Going from 9x series to, x series to x1, or nvidia 4-6x, remember the P4's being popular and everyone talking about the craze that was the AMD Athlon 64. Then there was the move to HDR and bloom lighting providing more movie like graphics.

I enjoyed CS a lot while playing with my friends in LAN when I was a student

Remember GTA III and VC on PS2, I played heavily in 04 too.

If everything is a dream, don't wake me up.
You quoting Final Fantasy VII
Also the year I was introduced to the Final Fantasy series, playing FFX for the first time on PS2. Been playing VII remake currently amazing remake. It also utilises the Unreal Engine.

It is the best total conversion mod for Unreal Tournament ever made!

I was playing demos of Age of Empires 2, Homeworld and Mechwarrior 4 from those PC Gamer demo discs, because I was old enough to be able to but too young to actually buy games and stuff.

I did actually have UT99 GOTY, because my dad bought it but never played it. I only played against bots, though.

I didn't even play UT204 until around grade  or so. My highschool had a laptop program so I had y own computer for once, and I was curious to see what the sequel to UT99 looked like.
Previously known as: xS0NARx, Njordr, Latte, or whatever the "name of the week" was.

Haha I got AOE for free with Kellogs Cornflake Cereal in a promotion they were doing for Age of Mythology in Australia. Was one of my first online games pre-UT 2004.

After leaving when MSN gaming zone shutdown, these days I play AOE II on steam a lot still. UT2004 was the first UT I bought. I enjoyed playing the UT2003 demo and was waiting with anticipation for the next UT to buy it for my birthday.
