PS: Regarding Dark Forces: Another problem with the game is that it doesn't support mouse aiming for up and down (remember - that game is between Doom and Duke Nukem 3D, technology-wise). Vertical aiming is most of the time done automatically (feels strange nowadays). However the later levels sometimes have ceiling-mounted turrets, and those are not covered by auto-aim. I don't know if it's because they are different objects (enemies are sprites, while the turrets are polygons). So you have to hit them really spot-on to do damage. Kind of annoying.
Still, back it the day, it was a really good game. Like "Star Wars Doom" with an actual story.
