This is how you celebrate and maintain a legacy but well loved game. I still remember booting the game up for the first time on release day (after hours and hours of downloading haha, boy did Steam suck but look at where it is now).

It was the reason I downloaded Steam, and back in those days I was pissed that I had the CD and the box and the manual AND they wanted me to go online and download more than a gig of data on my crappy dial up.

I got the game in the morning and I only got to play it later that afternoon… and I swore I’d never use Steam for anything else again.

Fast forward 20 years and probably a few thousand bucks later 🤦🏻‍♂️
