Weird question

[gemfyre]

Is there any way I can play original Quake on a modern computer?

And where can I get it?

(And are there also versions of original Doom and Heretic like this too?)

the real question you should be asking is
do you want it legal
or illegal?

I've got some weird version of Doom I downloaded from the net, but I'm not sure...i dunno I never played the original so I don't know how complete it is or what. All I know is I got stuck on the second level and couldn't figure out where to go.

I just googled something like 'Doom ROM XP' or something like that.
Never heard of Heretic so that's going to be a stomper.

Isn't everything online illegal these days?

Technically yeah.
Idk, some people really worry about it, I'm not sure why :/

3 quakes for the price of one (:

quake 1 should run with no probs on any machine really - doom and heretic, not sure - i think they'd run about as well as most DOS games do under XP.
