Yea thats a strange one right enough SpacegamerAnyways Frontier (done by Frontier before they existed) was always my favorite, specifically the early Amiga version with the wormhole bug
Totally agree with you. First Amiga version of original Frontier: Elite II is my all time favourite "Frontier" (at that time the game was owned by Game Tek) game.
Didnt I create a poll about the Elite games a while back? Anyways I think the op wants our views about Frontier's whole range of games as Spacegamer correctly pointed out. Appart from version 1.01 of miggy Frontier, I quite liked Infestation, shame I cant get it to work these days on modern kit
Mmmmmmmmmm, I wonder if Frontier would be willing to let GOG have a try at updating it? Would GOG want to try? :S

Would GOG want to try? :SApart from the two Frontier games the only other Frontier game that I have played is V2000.
Would not mind having a go at Infestation and there is a PlayStation version as well as the PC one, will have to keep an eye out for that one if the PC one is now incompatible.

Infestation was not well received on the playstation due to lots of slowdown, if my memory serves, mind you that was the PS1. Perhaps the game would fair better on the more powerful, PS2 or even PS3 if it could run it? Virus 2000 was another game I tried to run on modern kit. That crashed too. I think the problem with them is to do with the on disk copy protection. At least this is what David Braben himself said long ago on this forum. Incidentally, why doesn't he post on here anymore I wonder? :S

Elite 2 all the way. A game that was made over 16 years ago that still has great replayability now over modern games with super graphics has to account for something. I just hope they do get their butts into gear and make Elite 4 without Braben keep popping his head out every few years to show he is alive to say "yeah its still on the cards." Well stop making kinnect games and get on with it.
Download WinUAE, get a hold of an adf of Virus and fire it up! Also while your at it, try an adf of Zeewolf 1 & 2. If you liked Virus, you will love Zeewolf

Ah yeah I did play the first Zeewolf, good times
WinUAE here I come!
I have to say though releasing a game before your formed is quick development time. Match that Atari.
My favourite Frontier game would probably be RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 especially now it has quite a lot of downloadable custom content available for it.
