Couldn't agree more, pal. :)

But looking through my game collection, the list would definitely have Starlancer, Starfox and X2 there. Of course, the Complete X-Wing series factors in as well.

I would have to say Tie Fighter.  That game rocked.

What's your favorite Space-Sim game?
WC1. Still remember swaping the disks by hand to play one mission.

Everything else followed.

(Notice in my sig that I love Freespace, too!)
If you want to be ready for Wing Commander Saga: The Darkest Dawn, then download and play the prologue first.

Here,

Then, while waiting for the Darkest dawn, Download Starshatter 4.02

You 'll understand why once you have.

Hellbender.
I played the demo that came on the windows 95 or was it 98 CD. I had it down to a science. Though I never could find the game. :(

I'd have to say Hardwar.
I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

I keep pimping it cause it's brilliant :D The only problem is the hassle involved in setting up an Amiga or Atari ST emulator to play it.

I've been know to unpack my old A500 just to play it :)

Someone should try to build an up to date engine that can handle that. :D

" Personally I wish that docking was automatic as it is possible to screw
up after a successful mission and smash into solbase at 1000mph. However
it does give you a lot of training in flying the ship."

now that reminds me of something...

"Instead of firing off flares or
chaff you have to frantically target the enemy missile, wait until it
closes to under 2km and fire your MDC at it. This adds a lot to the game
especially when dealing with pseudostellar missiles which can destroy
anything within 5km."
what's wrong in that sentence? :p

Anyway, I gotta admit it does sound cool ( and the physic engine doesn't sound too complicated to set up, it's like a 3D Asteroid :p.
SCREW CANON!
