Is there a release date for this? This was always one of my favorite games of all-time!

I spent hours upon hours playing that game on my old 256K. Oh, the wonders of sacking Panama!

A good remake of this would be truly great news. Now they just need to remake Starflight and Autoduel and I would be a happy gamer. :)

oh man autoduel!

I'd settle for a remake of Mail order monsters!

Mail Order Monsters is one of my favorite games. There definatly needs to be a remake of that gem.

Starflight fans, You may or may not be aware of this:

It's being created by a good portion of the original SF dev team.

I heard about that a couple years ago, had given up hope that it would ever be completed. It actually sounds like they have progressed alot since I last looked tat the site.

It appears they are aiming for a Holiday 2004 release.
