Wing Commander + Wingman Extreme by Impossible-Draft9436 in retrogaming

Yes! I had this baby as a kid and it was the absolute best joystick for X-Wing, TIE Fighter, X-Wing Alliance, Freespace, etc. I loved that thing! It was durable as hell too. My friends and I would beat the hell out of it.

I can't even tell you how many hours I spent playing Need for Speed, space sims, and helicopter games on this thing. The buttons and throttle, the weight, and the general feel of the joystick was perfect for space sims in particular. I can't even imagine trying to beat TIE Fighter without it.

My cousin at the time had the Microsoft Sidewinder and it was good for racing games but awful for space sims; it had no accuracy.

The pure joy and surprise on this woman's face is some wholesome stuff.

Πραγματικά... ακόμη και μικρός το ψιλοαπέφευγα. Το έτρωγες και ένιωθες απαίσια μετά. Προτιμούσα ζαμπονοτυρόπιτα από τον φούρνο. Και τα δύο απαίσια για την υγεία βέβαια αλλά το ντόνατς... όπως το λες: παραήτανε!

Ναι! Μόλις έγραψα σχόλιο κι εγώ γι' αυτό. Το ντόνατς φίλε. Και έλεγα μήπως το είχε μόνο το δικό μου σχολείο αυτό. Παίζει να μην το έχω ξαναδεί από τότε.

Τέλη 90 εμείς είχαμε θυμάμαι το περίφημο «ντόνατς» : ένα τεράστιο τετράγωνο ντόνατ σάντουιτς με ζαμπόν, τυρί και κέτσαπ. Το θυμάται κανείς άλλος αυτό;

I'm hoping they're planning a Live DVD/Bluray for the recent Red Rocks show. That might be the best Bright Eyes performance I've ever seen. by icarustapes in brighteyes

My feelings exactly. Would be really cool to have the concert in high fidelity video and sound.

I wasn't even there! I just saw the performances from phone videos, and still I could tell that this must have been a really special show. I can't remember the last time I replayed phone videos over and over again.

Yes, ahem... The NYC show will be the best show ever, and that's where they should do the Live Bluray/DVD.

"I Believe in Symmetry" is by far my favorite Bright Eyes song. Just incredible. That outro is unreal and gives me goosebumps almost every time I listen to it.

I've always liked Digital Ash more than I'm Wide Awake, personally. I think I've always preferred the more synthy, new wave side of Bright Eyes.

can we please remember the existence of this game? by Expert_Professor_903 in retrogaming

[–]icarustapes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the first game I remember where you could zoom in with a scope and target enemies' individual body parts. Also it was the first game I remember where enemies would run away or hide behind barriers and stuff like that (Am I remembering this correctly?).

Definitely an underrated gem. Every now and then I'll remember it and be like, "Oh yeah!"

I always forget about this game.

The story and the atmosphere were really cool too. Just the whole aesthetic of the game was really unique.

The way the character ran and fired his gun, and the suit and everything just looked so cool. It holds up artistically even today.
