Airwarrior.....
« on: July 24, 1999, 03:16:00 PM »
I've been flyin AW since the days of GEnie and dos and I'm can't believe how far behind they've fallen. I've been spoiled by the all you can eat pricing and haven't move to WB because I still have memories of $250+ bills on GEnie.  Alot of people are sick of AW but not willing to pay by the hour so I think that there may be a mass exodus from there as long as the cost is flat-rate or reasonable. Can't wait to see it!!

Play Air Warrior Dos emulator here:

After it takes a couple of seconds to download put mouse cursor on game screen and right click and look up to open various menus to play the game.
