1996. One year after the launch of Tiberian Dawn - or simply "Command and Conquer" as it was known to me back then.
I came across TD while over at a friends house. As the time approached that I had to go home, I noticed the box for TD lying on a windowsill. I asked what it was, and he said that it was "Command and conquer". After a few minutes of playing it, I was addicted to it. I only had about 10 minutes of playing it when I first played it, but after that I decide that I would play it more often, which I id. So, I played TD with my friend for a while after that. Unfourtunatley, my friend moved away, and took TD away with him (NOOOO!). That was all the C&C I had then until 1999.
1999. A few months after the launch of Tiberian Sun, a year or two after the launch of RA1 and the varous expansions for it and TD.
I came across TS while out shopping - The memories of TD filled me, and I wanted it so very much. Unfourtunatley, I still did not have a PC of my own at this point, so playing was out of the question....
2001. Launch of Windows XP.
At this point I got a PC, all new and shiny with Windows XP. With it I bought Half-Life, which kinda kept me busy for a good long while. But eventually, later in the year, I got round to buying Tiberian Sun. I played it almost as much as HL.
2002-2003. From there, I bought the rest oif the C&C games, but TS remained my favourite. I started playing TS online, and, while being owned owning, I heared about "Mods". Egarly, I downloaded some, and discovered the potential of modding. The first mod I got was the "Ultima" mod, and that had the ini files readily available to edit myself. So I started to mod another mod, teaching myself as I went along. After that, I decided to find out how to make my own mod, from scratch, and I ended up in the Tiberiumsun forums (the really old ones, when the url was still www.tiberiumsun.com/forum). And as that moved to revora, and finally here, I followed. And here I am right noiw, still at it.
