Who's we? All that I've seen is some guy say "numbers are better, I like being able to tell how much health I have left," and you saying "Color's are right. Numbers are bland, and *Chris Roberts* says so." I'm not saying that Chris doesen't have a point. Actually showing the damage is...

The Shivans, and you have it backwards. The Nephilim's stupidly weak ships immediately deflates their belevibility as a threatening, powerfull race. The fact that they are giant bugs makes them cliche, and they give absolutely no reason for trying to destroy humanity. On the other hand, when you...

Meh, whether you like to have colored damage or percentage damage is really a matter of personal taste. I can see the merits of both ways.

Just a sidenote, OpenGLHQ is not in 0.65, there is a scaler option called OpenGL, but it is not the same. Try the advinterp2x or 3x scaler, I think you'll be surprised :)

The layout is the same, but the graphical style has been altered. And whatever else you might say about FS2, don't insult the HUD. The FS/FS2 HUD is the best in the space sim genre. Period. No other game comes close to displaying the same volume of information in the intuitive manner that Free...

Old games can look great even on a 30" LCD, as long as you have access to the right scaling options.

Well, there's the problem right there. Run DOSbox at a higher res, perhaps at your monintor's native 1440x900? (old DOS games actually don't look bad stretched to 16:10, and most of the time you'll never tell the difference) If you don't know how to do that, then use a front-end like D-fend...

Well, some guys from Toys for Bob have started an E-mail petition to activision to get them back the rights for Star Control. They want to make a new Star Control 3, disregarding the original poorley received sequel. Also, a team already has permission to make Starflight 3, as long as it is...

It's hardly 'common' sense that a reporter knows that WC:SO pioneered episodic gaming, but it sure is encouraging!

Wrong topic :)

What?

Heh no, It's 'l' 'o' 'l' that is censored... aka "laughing out loud" ...thats funny though.

Heh. Sarcasm can be hard to convey over internet forums. A '~~~' or /jk might help though :) *edit* Why the heck is l-o-l censored?

The ironic thing is that the much more enjoyable PC version made its debut at only $29.99

Wow, and we will eventually be able to use these in the actual games? With these and the multiplayer pack it seems like you guys are in the process of doing to WC:P what the SCP did to FS2!

Who said that Confed didn't keep the Dragon? We saw the Excalibur fighter in SO (although it's non-flyable, and none of these seem to be on the Midway) perhaps there just weren't any dragons on the Midway, although they are still in use in some parts of the fleet? Another possibility might be...

Wow... this is awfull. I can't begin to imagine what you (Chris, LOAF, Quarto) are going through.

Well, the entire concept of waiting for a 360 emulator is pretty funny, given how little headway we have of even creating a functional Xbox1 emulator. However, that's not to say that if a theoretical 360 emulator did exist that you wouldn't be able to benefit from improved controls. For example...

Agreed. The PC version is a completely different game.

I think what he means is that RTS games generally are better with a mouse.
