To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Here is something that I came across that I tough was great since I remember playing the original on my Atari 2600 🙂

Star Rangers puts you in the cockpit of a one-man XB-185-class Starfighter. Your mission? To clear the galaxy of the merciless Lans-trinzini alien fighters and cruisers! As you warp from sector to sector in pursuit of the enemy, they are also on the move to attack and destroy your starbases and fuelbases.

Checkout the website for more info: http://www.analogretro.com/StarRangers/

Added the game to the cellphone and mobile device game list.

Check it out in action

I know I have been looking at them for a while. But I am thinking about the Android powered devices since that OS is open source and there will be a lot less limitations and restrictions put on the apps that are available unlike Apple.

I guess it will depend on what the android os is running on if it as good as the i-pod

and if it was cheaper then the i-pod,at the moment Apple looks to have the market to itself.
