Well, seeing as how you are looking for a Wash to your Zoe, I don't see how that's a problem! ;p

Yeah, I found that site about a year ago and also snagged Wing Commander 1 from there. Good stuff. I played the original Starflight in '86 and the Sega Genesis version when it came out and I loved both. I really wish there were a modern version of it, but the classic game still holds up pretty well.

Well, some fans (and a couple of the original programmers) are working on a sequel, but it's a ways off. You can check it out here.

I remember really enjoying that game. Wasn't there an alien race that communicated in binary? I remember my friend and I in high school tried to convert it into ASCII and came up with a phone number to some restraunt in San Francisco...

Yes, I believe they were called the Mechanoids or some such. My favorite were the Veloxi, hense the handle. They cracked me up with their delusions of grandeur. :)
