Today I'm... amped up!

Cannot Find Server posted:

Star Control 2

I bought a 3DO for this game

This. A thousand times this.

I wasn't really of any sort of age to buy a 3DO when this was released (nor was my family ever wealthy enough to afford the machine). I was also too young when the game was first released to ever appreciate it, either (we also didn't have a PC at the time).

In some bygone era, PC Gamer Magazine actually had the entire Star Control 2 game on one of the free CDs that came with the magazine. At the time, my mom's boyfriend had managed to procure salvage some old PCs that had 75 mHz processors. I had to learn DOS in order to use the program properly, but it was quite simply the best game I had ever played at that time. I still would probably consider it the best game I've ever played, now that I think about it.
