Sadly, I'm old enough to remember when this would have been a real arcade game....
Maturity is knowing that I've been an idiot in the past.
Wisdom is realizing I will be an idiot in the future.
Common sense is trying to not be an idiot right now

I had a subscription to that when I was 12.  Hours upon hours of entering machine language, hoping you got it in right!  Then I upgraded to where the magazine came with the 5.25" floppy with all the software from the magazine on the disk.  Yyaaaay

You had a C64? I was always jealous of the kids with C64's. All my olds would get me was an Acorn Electron. Adjusting the tape recorder's volume to load games about drove me insane.

I agree. IMHO is someone actually tries to kamakazi someone it should be programmed that he wanted to give up his virtual life and should die doing it. The pilot that was trying to maneuver and got hit should sustain whatever damage that occured and should have the chance to RTB if possible. If it's a mutual accident of position and unintentional then damage shoul dreflect what occured.

Until it's programmed to do that then it's an arcade game.
