I think of two things: asphalt, and trouble.

Man, I love this game.

I tried this after seeing Action Retro use it a few times to see if he could make it work on older machines he was tinkering with. Love the old school/simpler FPS feel of it, and the lack of nonsense. Boot it up, play

I've been playing a single ship only save this time around and it's been a ton of fun. I allow myself to use fighters if a ship has a fighter bay, but no escorts (except mission NPCs of course).

I don't know why but I absolutely love asteroid mining. It's not like it's deep or complex, but it just feels so satisfying somehow.

Man Uniracers is so good, my friends and I would have huge tournaments. Too bad Pixar got all uppity and claimed they had a trademark on unicycles. Good grief

This is one of my favorite parts of sitting out playing music by my "resist fascism" sign.
