Star Control 2 port to win/linux/mac

[TheShiz]

I just heard that the guys that made Star Control 2 are porting the 3do version (the best one) to modern operating systems. It will also let you choose to play the original pc version. They may also include online melee play. This is awesome. I'm hoping they are doing this to build up interest for a new star control game (part 3 was not made by the original creators). for more info on the port check out the best Star Control site on the net:

any Star Control fans here? For me the best thing about star control 2 is the humor and the story/plot. The ur-quan are just fvcking cool.

I rocked the Ur-Quan ships using just the Arilou. *moron*

*idiot*The Chmmr ships were nice, though...*stupid*

I have the game setup on my old-games computer.

This game doesn't even need a sound card! It plays all the music and stuff through PC speaker too~

I played (and loved) StarFlight but never got into the others as much. I liked the exploration and mining aspect of StarFlight.

heh, my favorite aliens other than the ur-quan would have to be the shofixti:

"Don't attack -- we're not the Ur-Quan! We're your allies!"

A typical Ur-Quan gambit... which has failed.
And now I howl the scream of death -- Kyaiee!


here's a good ur-quan quote when you are describing the talking pet:


"Kind of like a cross between a turd and a toad."
These references are obscure. Respecify.
