I remember having three or four games that you had to boot the computer into directly. As in, insert floppy and ctrl-alt-delete to launch the game.

At least in Doom they had sense enough to do it on Mars

Not to spoil the party, but this would have worked with a gas car and an inverter right? Although for sure it’s much more convenient to have the feature built-in and not need to get any extra kit
