Where Were You When You First Played The Final Xen Levels?

I think the title is fairly self-explanatory.

I was at work. We had a publication deadline for a paper on December 10th (which later got extended to December 15th… after we busted our humps trying to meet the original one) and had none of our results ready, so my colleague Orhan and I trucked over to the concrete basement that serves as our lab around 6 PM and spent about two hours coding a simulation that would test our vision software. Then we had it run a bunch of different scenarios automatically, log the results, and then dumped them into a spreadsheet and stuck the resulting graph in our paper. We were there until 4 AM, and while the simulation was running I played through all the way from the “Soon™” map in Interloper up to the end of the game.

I was sat at home drinking brain fluid when fred ring
