Have you heard about/played Tyrian?
Hmmmm? Have you heard about that awesome game? Or, even better, have you played it?


If you want to know more about it, just ask.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I played with it much. Even multiplayer with one keyboard with my bro. That was a long time ago, in a house far far away from all of you. :)

Now, we can't allow this to happen. Tyrian goodness for everyone!:D

Here, few links that may help you.

Fairly active Tyrian fan site

A forum of above site

AFAIK, the official site. It is kind of dead right now.

I should note that it seems that Tyrian can not be bought legally now, so quick search in Google for Tyrian 2000 and downloading it may be the only way to get the game. Shame [note: I am not advocating piracy here. It is just that the game, AFAIK, can not be bought normally].
