eMTe: Of course you've played it! :D But it's not Wing Commander either.

Maz: You win! The Awesomeness of Alien Legacy it is!

I'd say legacy was average game.. After you finished it once, replay walue was quite low :|

However, next one is one of my favourites.. And I know it's easy one, but I'll go with it anyways :)

EDIT: And those of you who liked Wesnoth, perhaps you wish to try this one too :) This could be thought as Wesnoth's ancestor.

Hey, I've played Alien Legacy more times than Fantasy General, and would do so any day. :D There are multiple endings too, you know. ;)

I still prefer Fantacy General ;) But that's just me :D And I assume it's your turn again then ^_^;

I liked the original General, Panzer General, best. Fantasy was too linear, and the random maps did nothing for me. But I completed it, of course.

And let me just recommend Alien legacy to everybody who hasn't played it yet. It takes some exploring to learn to play, but I think it's worth it. One of my all time favorite games.

This next one is not, but it's a game I've always wanted to return to at some point aftyer first playing it back in '94 or so.

Played it, liked it, dont remember the name.

I'll edit this post as soon as my memory refreshes. :)

Dang! It's Legacy! :)

Must return to it some day too, but it works terribly on my xp. :roll:

This is one helluva game.

Kept me glued to the screen for longer than Civilization (and I usually played Civ til dawn).

Not a clue... I know I've never seen this before. :( But if I had to guess, I'd say "Space Odyssey." :p

No, it's not Space Odyssey, but Space Odyssey is also a great game. :D

...

Hey, there's no such game as Space Odyssey! :Wallbang: :mrgreen:

Clues clues... Game's name starts with S, publisher's name too, it was ported to PC (you can even download it from Underdogs), is huge, has great reviews, is a mix of rpg and strategy and is one of my favourite of all times.

Ok, I'll wait til tomorrow's evening, then reveal the name and let all know this amazing game (but still obscure as I see :( ).

I'd look, but Underdogs is giving me the evil commercials at the moment. You know, those that hijack your browser and pretty much crash everything... What's the point of those anyway?
