We're gamers, so here is a good place to discuss other games you are playing or are curious about.

The GOOD old days of Gaming.... I love this stuff.

Post by Michael Slaunwhite »

Well here is a video I just created for a game I enjoyed so much back in the 1990's. It is called Terminator Future Shock, and Skynet has to pay the piper.

Truth be told, today's games just can't compare to some great oldies out there. Today it's all about flash, and no substance....back through the late 80's, and 90's was a time of some real greats which most take for granted.

Anyway, here is the video, and a link to the DOS Front end program I use which is bar none the best dos game front end on the market (free by the way).

You are quite right, there were many great games back then. SOW is a throw back to those days, where quality was actually prized. That's why it will never be a financial bonanza in today's market.
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

Absolutely MTG SOW is quality (very hard to come by these days), no doubt about it. Back in the dream days of PC-Gaming you had a long list of great games to choose from, and became proud to own each one. With today's gaming industry with their disposable releases (just to satisfy a gamers fix), we have ended up with very few good games, and because of companies greed we all have been hurt by it.... Very sad.

Thank God for Norb, and you guys, at least there are people like you still out there that love games, and really put their hearts into bringing the best to us (please don't ever give up guys, it would be a very sad day if you stopped doing what you guys do best).

Your right MTG this game may not fill bank accounts, at least SOWgb will be one of those games that players will remember, and talk about.

BUT, you never know, all it takes is one person to mention this incredible command simulator to the right person, and you suddenly find out you have more orders than you can keep up with. :)
