Ah is the only game that i have stuck to longer then 1 month (5 years now).  They certainly know how to keep the excitement up after the years i have been playing.

Understood.  smoked for probably 20 years total.  Been off the stick (again) for just over a year now.  Recently just had a rough spot and nearly started up again.  I sure miss it but my lungs (a genetic weakness on my moms side of family) are feeling much better.

Dont mind me, I always  inject my little pennies worth when I get a good excuse.


It's not falling on deaf ears, thanks for the encouragement. One day!

Well, I ain't doing it!

I'm not going to give in to peer pressure and post in a thread just to show that I think Aces High and HTC are great.

I....ummm....

....there....already poured water on the coming fanboi flame with the title.

I was just thinking this afternoon as soon as i got back from work helping out at the local gymnastics center for 3-7 year olds (which was so much fun, happy kids are so pure. They might not be nice all the time but they are free of deception.) So anyway i was sitting here with a coffee and a smoke and I got thinking.

What HTC have done with this game is quite amazing. They have created perhaps the most popular air combat sim on the net and they have done it by themselves. You look at the other area of gaming, like FPS for instance. The most popular game for FPS are mass marketed, sponsored, hyped up and shipped out in the typical modern day comercial fashion.

Our Devs here have done so much more hard work to get where they are today than any of those marketed mega companies. I just think it's time we stood up and aknowledge the fact that Hitech and crew have created something special out of nothing, without any help, and they stayed true to this product for a decade. I'm sure there have been times when they could have sold out and made a bundle, but they have not.

Anyone who has gripes with the game today just stop for one second and appreciate what a difficult task they are nailing on a day to day basis praticaly without fail. It's quite amazing, and I wouldnt have the smarts or the nerve to have done it myself.

thanks hitech and gang, bloody good job.

Nice post, but you're still a punk, and can't fly an F4u sideways ;)
