Hehe... I still own it! Smile
http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3134179

It's the original RTS game. A lot less complicated than the ones you see now. You built and picked up one unit at a time.

You play as either Red or Blue. You controlled this "transformer" like jet that carry units or transform to ground mode to destroy units.

The idea was to destroy the opponent's base. There were mini bases you could take over and the more you had control of the more cash you made.

You build units then you could pick them up when they were ready and transport them anywhere on the map. It was really freakin cool!

Very very underrated game and I really wanted to see a new version... but alas... doesn't seem like that will happen.

Yeah mine's without emulators as well. The only think that brought that up for me is that I had Star Wars for the PC. Not sure if it was actually a release though. The only emulation I really have is the stuff on my PSP and none of that is even on this list.

I got an 80. My biggest blanks were not playing Zelda: OOT, MGS, and Ultima Online. What can I say? They're not my types of games.

And for (Geek) bonus points, Herzog Zwei is probounced "Hoser Phi", Just thought someone would want to know since I'm betting nobody knew that.

Not sure about that one bud.

Herzog Zwei is actually German for "Two Dukes."

Zwei is pronounced "zvi" with a long i.

Herzog is pronounced more like "Hertsog" or something like that.

http://www.ex.ac.uk/german/abinitio/pronounce/

This...
http://www.ex.ac.uk/german/abinitio/pronounce/audio/zwoelf.wav
is actually a .wav file that pronounces "Zwei" and "Herz" which is heart, but is also the beginning of the word "Herzog."

However if you have heard differently.. I'd like to see that info too. Smile

Interesting. I have a book called Herzog that is kind of boring. I'm glad the two aren't related XD

For the record, the majority of mine were without emulations--I was raised by gamers, and I had a brother and 3 stepbrothers to boot that were gamers as well. So we had a lot of games/systems in our household, including multiples of the same systems. X)!

Well I had originally heard it way back in some discussion with a Sega exec so I took it as being correct but knowing how much suits actually know about games, you're more than likely right.
