    Everybody? That thing with coloured bubbles? The network thing with all the OSs? The thing where you had to guess the position of things with lasers in a grid, all the breakout clones, innumerable tetris, doom (or was that in Irix?). Also there were lots of games if you installed the games packages. Like Mille Bornes (or whatever it was called in English) or hangman, or many other crowd pleasers.

      Some of those games sound like Simon Tatham’s Portable Puzzle Collection

      Available for Linux, Windows, web browser (javascript or java applet), Android, IOS, and… uh, Palm OS apparently.

      The thing with coloured bubbles could be several things here. The network thing is probably net or netslide. The thing with the lasers and the grid is probably blackbox

      Take me back to the Irix days, remind me what the 3D racing game was called, the cars were all round and there were five? rails you could hop between. The background was space, maybe?

      There was another game, a first-person shooter where TVs with hair screamed at you.

        TVs with hair screamed at you.

        I can’t decide whether those were my teenage years or just bad dreams. Or maybe both.
