From PCGamingWiki, the wiki about fixing PC games

I started PC gaming in 1993 with X-Wing and the original Doom shareware.

I use HowLongToBeat.com to track my gaming history.

I live in the Denver, CO area. I'm originally from the Seattle, WA area.

I support PCGamingWiki.com via Patreon (and then run an ad-blocker when viewing the site).

Notes to self

"More, Purge Cache" at top-right of page usually fixes corrupted formatting after seemingly innocuous edits. Especially true for pages that use #cargo_query. I first encountered this on the page "List of games that support controller remapping" Thanks for the tip from Dandelion_Sprout (t c f) , via Discord
