X-Wing/TIE Fighter re-release!

[Random]

As noted on Facebook, GOG.com is re-releasing XWing and TIE Fighter today, $10 each, no DRM.

Am excite.

They are including the special editions and expansion packs, as well, so you'll get B-Wing, etc.

TIE Fighter SE

I hope my i3 runs them ok.

I saw this, and I have some concerns. I'm sure these run in an emulator like DOSBOX, and some other rereleases like this have ended up not running very well. I have some concerns.

Also, where does one buy a Flightstick Pro these days?

But, holy shit. I just realized I could be playing this on a the TV. RAD.

Nigel shared a link to some controller-mouse emulator software on Facebook.

Does anyone know of it works in conjunction with the Motion In Joy program, which emulates a PS3 controller as an Xbox controller?

$84! I used to sell these for $40 in the '90s, and that was a very expensive joystick then! WTF?

Mostly inflation. $54 in 1995 = $84 in 2014.

That shit is bananas.

I've bought X-Wing and it works natively in Windows with my USB Logitech Attack 3 Joystick. Only I can't remember any of the keyboard commands!! It comes with manual and strategy guide in PDF format too. Of course it doesn't look great now but still has the playability. Will give it a proper go in the next few days. It was my first PC game, actually bought while my PC was being built!

Huh, wonder if these would work with my Saitek X45...
