Starflight

yeah the genesis version is a lot more action-oriented too, i was kinda surprised

it's almost an entirely different game

from the genesis manual.

I should've hired a more experienced crew. I should've known that testing a prototype like the Intrepid would require a better crew than my roomies at the academy.

I like how the game is huge. It really is but it does get repetitive. You can pretty much make up your own story but there is an objective. The difficulty is decent for this type of game. I've played a 15 hour (or so) continue with barely getting anywhere story-wise.

Rargh did I ever love Starflight for the Genesis... When I was a kid I didn't care about the story or the objective, it was just really cool to check out new worlds, aliens, and mine for stuff. I recently tried out the PC versions, which to my surprise sucked terribly in comparison... Starflight for the Genesis was released by EA wasn't it? Thats back when EA made/distributed decent games... before all the madden love.

Has anyone beat this genesis classic? I did once, but it was only because of a internet walkthrough.. I don't think any of us as young kids could have accomplished the mission at hand.

I'd have to say though, if there was a supreme "underrated game" of all time, it'd have to be this one. Starflight forever.
