The minimum requirements one is a bit of a weird one, as those were definitely a thing back then. Gaming pushed computer technology a lot and personally many of my computer upgrades were motivated to play the latest games.

I remember upgrading my PC for Duke3D from 4MB to 8MB, it cost me my entire paycheck.

I remember very specifically not being able to play a game I was gifted because it needed at least 256mb of ram and the family computer only had 128mb.

I was extremely sad, then after months tried to push my parents to her a new computer. They say that the computer is supposed to have 256mb of ram.

After a while we realized that one of the ram sticks was not properly plugged in.
