Reads like an infomercial for Epic to me

EpicMegaGames was legit back in the 90's, regardless of what a slimy, backwards, CEO Tim is today.

Epic used to make good games, it's true. Even EA used to be good long ago. Shit happens.

Penny arcade has some commentary on Tim at the moment.

Brings back memories of Pitfall on the C64, what a game it was!

By Activision, not Epic though.
