Now we all have "PCs" where video cards have larger memory then did our HDD's, and our keyboards have a quicker response time then did our processor's FSB.

Atari800...with MULE (where the computer characters always cheated). Whenever we played MULE, it was understood that human players would 'Collude' against PC characters wherever possible just to make the game close to being fair. And don't forget Jumpman and Boulderdash. And the unbeatable 'Gemstone Warrior'.
*In GW, you had to fight your way through a maze to get to a relic in a cave. You are almost out of bombs & super arrows when you find it. You're all set to retrace your steps when the cave door closes and Indestructable monsters start chasing you into the back of the cave. If you made one wrong move (and it took 20 game hours to get you there before this) or turned into one wrong room, they'd swarm you and kill you. I think the monsters were Adamantium-skinned Beholders who shot rays of 'Saturn V thruster force'. If I had a nickle then for every curse I called down on the programmers I'd be independantly wealthy today.
