skipping around to various local BBS' downloading new shareware and trying it out into the wee hours of the night.

I recall there was this old DOS vector graphics looking helicopter game that was fucking impossible because it was realistic i guess and oh the joy we had taking turns and mocking each other as we crashed over and over over and over

edit: may have been Gunship certainly looks similar. Actually i don't think it was this because this looks playable and fun

I remember letting my brother’s friend use my computer and he reprogrammed my DOS boot sequence to play a (very simple) bleepy version of the teenage mutant ninja turtles theme song & then type out “TURTLE POWER” on the DOS prompt.
