- 64k Windows We Were ! by Razor 1911 [web]
- Scali: Games are mainly made to make money. Every few month you'll need a faster machine with better gfx card just to be able to play the next generation of the game. Games are surely not optimized to run as best as possible on slower hardware. This hype is only nice for the $$$ game industry and the hardware industry. And next time don't compare atleast nice looking oldskool stuff with some lame game.

- demo MS-Dos Back in the kitchen (ITK '97) by Rednex
- This is the slightly modified PC version of a kickass Amiga oldskool demo from 1992 and contains anything that you can expect from a real oldskool demo. So, it's time to grab your old DOS machine or just to reactivate your DOS partition (hey gloom) :)

- Yes: Exact! :-)
Scali: Pushing the machine to the limits was for a long time a main goal of the demoscene but nowadays it's imo not the most important point when talking about oldskool. At no time all demos and intros were trying to push the machine to its limits but quite much DOS demos are oldskool nowadays because they a have a specific spirit. And for me this spirit is more important than seeing that a demo is reaching the limits (which is quite impossible with todays mega fast PC's). - isokadded on the 2002-12-04 01:18:18
- demo Windows Future Colors by Contract
- This one won the powerdemo compo!
Colorful demo with nice scenes and very good synching. The sound quality could be sometimes better (probably player problem). - isokadded on the 2002-12-03 06:24:21
- demo Commodore 64 Soiled Legacy by Resource [web]
- Really amazing demo, imo one of the best for the C64!

- 64k Windows We Were ! by Razor 1911 [web]
- All this thumb downs are imo not understandable. From todays view oldskool means looking back to the good old past and that's what this intro precisely makes. You can expect innovation and stunning effects from a 'normal' 2002 demo/intro, but not from an intro which wants to be oldskool. When watching oldskool stuff then I *want* to be kicked back in time.
Some stuff can probably look more perfect, but the intro is very nice anyway. The requirements are maybe bit high for oldskool stuff, but on the other hand it's Windows and usually we use quite powerful and fast machines when running Windows with it. You could blame Razor more when they made it in DOS coz the typical DOS machine is probably much slower. But so every non DOS owner can easily watch what oldskool means. - isokadded on the 2002-12-03 01:32:20

- Kickin' oldskool with many nice realized effects and a good chiptune. Especially the end screen with vectorballs, colorful scroller etc. - for sure a worthy winner!
