I totally just ripped all three of those old Bungie game discs.

You can download ports of all three games, plus a ton of new levels, which will run on modern machines. Straight from Bungie:

Yeah, I wasted a few hours some weeks ago when I found those.

Cool. I never actually finished Infinity. (Or even got particularly far into it.) Maybe I'll screw around with it some later...

Which one had the room where, right after you used the save console, the entire place inundated with lava? I think that's where I gave up...

There's a part in Durandal where (IIRC) laval suddenly starts welling up and you have to race up a shaft to stay ahead of it. It's hard not to get hurt by it a little but it's not unsurvivable. And the Durandal apologizes to you.

I dunno if that's what you're remembering tho.

I got stuck in one of the games where there's a constant, fast rising and falling of water levels.
