Star Trek: Elite Force (PC) (Which manages a more realistic take on Voyager than the TV series did.)

Star Trek: The Fallen (PC) (Like being inside a DS9 episode. Pity there was no multiplayer.)

X-Wing Alliance (PC) (Still the standard by which I judge space sims.)

Jedi Academy (PC) (Easily the best "Jedi Simulator" ever made [Yes, that includes "The Gary-Stu Unleashed"]. The only thing it lacks is good JK-style auto-aim --it's clearly not made for non-Jedi players.)

Wouldn't mind checking out Republic Commando if my system could play it without exploding. A non-Jedi-centric Star Wars game; we haven't had one of those since the 90s. The fact that it's tied to my favourite Prequel-Era novels is just bonus.

Star Trek: Elite Force(PC)
done that, very good, done ST-EF2 also, was a bit peeved you could not choose which gender you wanted to play, probably because it should, end with main characther ending up with either: Telsia, or the other(quite scantilly clad, blonde with strikingly blue eyes)humanoid archeology-female

Oh, oh... I've recently discovered that you can play all the old Sinclair Spectrum Games from the 80's online!

I'd forgotten just how playable those old games were and the best of which were the wonderful Isometric games:

Knight Lore
Batman
Head Over Heels
and
Alien 8

Absolutely enjoyable.

OMG! I remember that game! Games, plural, actually. I played them with my brother when I was, like, eight. May have been the first games I played obsessively all the way through.
Oh man, I want to play some Streets of Rage, now. Too bad my Genesis broke down ten years ago.


Ritual is what happens when we run out of rational.

No problem, PR, grab thyself a copy of Fusion.
(Excellent Sega Emulator)
http://emulator-zone.com/doc.php/genesis/fusion.html

And if you owned/purchased the game, which you obviously did, then you have a legal right, IMHO, to the ROM data of the cartridge in any form, electronic or otherwise - if ya can't find it anywhere else, lemme know, cause I sure as hell have it.
