I'm old enough that some of the PC games I grew up playing came on a CD.
In fact, I'm old enough to remember before when CD became a tag for cross dressing on Pornhub!
"You youngins think you're pro gamers‽ I've forgotten more PC games than y'all have put your hands on!"
As someone who remembers installing games with ten 5 1/4" floppy disks - ouch.
Game code came in a magazine, written in BASIC, and you had to transcribe onto the computer... Sometimes multiple pages of it.
I found that surprisingly fun considering how young I was. The issue was I didn't have the room for more than 1 game most of the time, so I had to redo that every time.
There are some things I don't really miss though, as fun as they were at the time.
Pfft I have 50 plus 5-1/4" disks for an Atari computer from 86... It still works, I fired it up a couple years ago!
