Fond memories indeed!! I've never since had that amazing feeling of exploring space that Star Control 2 gave me... brilliant game, and the wacky music was brilliant. Add to that the original Prince of Persia and Another World, and all of the LucasArts adventure games... *sigh* where have games with that kind of content gone?

Dungeon Siege 1, LOA and 2 were excellent. Amazingly I have never played Diablo 2, loaded it up recently and it looks and feels so gumby... I guess I *might* see past that.

Anyway.. I've been having the 'unable to submit score' problem with Lunar Lander, also it just seems to go around a loop of the first 3 screens (i.e. goes back to the beginning when you land on the final glowing landing pad), is that what's supposed to happen??
