Aren't we all so great.

Mingan on 8/9/2008 at 17:31

I love you too.

Who the heck are 'MicroPose', that's what I want to know.

Ah, it's (http://www.mobygames.com/browse/games/microprose-software-inc/) Microprose.

EDIT: Seriously, they were a huge publisher back in the day.

Matthew on 8/9/2008 at 18:39

Yeah, they pushed out some great, great stuff.

F117A! MoO! My bro and I pretty much stole my dad's computer away to play this stuff. It pretty much defined half my childhood...

...though most of it was spent just watching him play, because he was such an ass and refused to give up the keyboard. It still makes me ever so slightly mad, to this day. :mad:

But yeah, those were some seriously good times. Why am I routinely inflicted with nostalgia whenever I post around here?

My friend, have a thorough read of this (http://steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=sub&SubId=964&cc=NZ) page.

Was I supposed to know about a typo on a page that had not been previously linked to in this thread?

Don't think anybody has mentioned this yet...

(http://ufoai.sourceforge.net/)

Very true to the original, built with the Quake 2 engine, well worth a look...

I'm gonna have to give these games a try; Terror from the Deep looks especially interesting.
