I paid about $1000 for a new computer just to play Ultima Online (plus the cost of the game and monthly subscription). I had tried it out at a friend's house, and the whole experience just blew me away. To give context, not only was this the first real MMO, but at the time I and most other people had very little experience with the Internet in general.
On top of that I mostly played the game at night, because my roommates were getting mad whenever my internet use would tie up the phone line during the day.
curl-6 bet me that PS5 + X|S sales would reach 56m before year end 2023 and he was right.
