I think the original was probably one of the best games ever created - and it fitted on a couple of floppy discs! :)

These days it takes millions of dollars and a huge production team to produce games that have only a fraction of the brilliance of that game, which was a one-man production.

I am still looking for a great WWI or WWII naval combat game.  Even with all of its flaws I really enjoyed Fighting Steel

From the FAQ:

"Question:  What's the cost of the game?Answer:  For the beta test, every authorized tester can download the client and take part in the beta test for free excluding the cost of your own internet connection.
After the beta test, everyone can download the client for free and test the game for a while. Then after some time you have to pay montly for access to the game server, but more exact information is not available at this time."
