Id pay good money for a up to date version of Gunship made by MicroproseBack in the day there were a couple of games publishers that I always associated with good games. If I saw they were publishing a game I would buy it and know its likely to be good.
For me Microprose was that company. From my days on the C64, then to the Amiga and then on to the PC I always knew their games would be quality.
I looked on the wikipages about the games they published and these are a selection of the most memorable ones from back then;
Airborne Ranger
Covert Action
F-19 Stealth Fighter
Falcon 4.0
Midwinter II
Gunship
Microprose Soccer
Sid Meier's Civilization
Sid Meier's Covert Action
Sid Meier's Pirates!
Sid Meier's Railroad Tycoon
Silent Service
Did any of you guys have a favourite publisher back in the day? Or even a favourite game series you liked?
FTL only really made one dcecent game but what a game it was Dungeon Master on ST and Amiga
Also X-Com from MicroProse
Yeah i forgot about Oids, was like that game that Archer Maclean brought out, was it Dropzone?They also made Oids on the Atari ST, which was a pretty damn good game, fondly remembered by me. Based on rescuing people from a planet surface with a ship in a inertia/gravity system, in an asteroids type vibe.
Funnily enough ive just installed that with Xcomutil to have the odd game alongside other games, Takes up no space at all and its great to play even today with Xcom UtilAlso X-Com from MicroProse
