You can now run Doom entirely within a motherboard BIOS

PC boot. PC play Doom. Reset. Repeat.

Idk how many other games you can do this with but I thought it was interesting.

    I think you’re right in inferring that OP is confusing DOS with BIOS but technically, plenty of old computers and early video game consoles like the Atari 2600 didn’t have a BIOS and would immediately execute the code on the tape, disk, or cartridge. Some old computers had bootstrapping but that’s not really BIOS in the IBM sense.

      that extended into the early nintendos as well!
