Huhu,

just wondered if any body here ever heard of the great Colony Wars series for PlayStation One? The first game got at least 2 sequels, CW: Vengeance & CW: RedSun. The first zwo games offer A LOT of different end movies, depending on which acts you were able to solve in success and which not. After the game end you are able to switch to a played act to change the story line, which gives you much motivation to play the game again.

In Colony Wars: RedSun is a fixed story line (AFAIR), but you can do side quests at every base to which the story line drives you too, and unlike the 2 games before you are allowed to buy and change equipment (and ships?) as you want. If you have a PS 1, please try out those games, they are worth are try !

Never got to experience these games since I never owned a PS1. Will have to do some searching and see if a remake or a port was ever done.

Damn. I forgot my first console. 😀 And the CD32 version, was better than the Amiga 500/1200 version.

Darxide was also released for PDAs.

I have Star Raiders 1&2, for the Atari 130 XE, in catridge format. (I bought the machine just for these two games, some months back. But I still haven't played them 😀 )

Quote:
Starfight and Star Control on the Megadrive

Do you mean Starflight? I believe that the Amiga versions were better.

Quote:
Star Control 2 on the 3DO

Well, it's more of an arcade/adventure game. But a great one too. And "Ur-Quan Masters", the unofficial/official remake is based on that version.

Yes. It was the cancelled Last star Fighter game. Good work Pinback.

Quote:

And I think it was first released in the Arcades. (More of a rail shooter).

Quote:
Star Voyager on the Nes

Now. Here's a new one.

Quote:
It was Star Crusader on the CD32.

And there was also "Subwar 2050".

Quote:
Rogue Squadron on N64/Game Cube

A whole trilogy of them. 😀 And don't forget the two Starfox games on Gamecube.
