Title: Mantis CD
Post by: starlord on February 04, 2008, 07:00:37 am
Hi there, in my endless quest for rare delectables guess what I found?

XF5700 Mantis experimental fighter (CD version).

This beauty was one of the leading space sims by then (1992). If you like oldies, be sure to check that one.
Be warned, however, that this game is possibly THE MOST difficult space sim you will experience as newton physics apply (no drag, thrust in space, etc...)

However, the storyline is easily as immersive as a WC or FS game: one of the reasons to try it.

Marvel at the pinnacle of computer graphics in 1992, then play freespace (1 or 2) and come give me your impressions.
