I loved everything about the TIE fighter: the whine of the twin ion engines and the BLAT BLAT BLAT of its weaponry, the cool pilot’s uniform and the very design aesthetic of the craft itself – not a thought toward air resistance (obviously useless in space) or even a perfunctory nod toward resembling anything organic. While piloting the fighters was a blast, TIE Fighter was no mere simulation: –Matt Staggs
Sadly, we never had a chance to play TIE Fighter. X-Wing was our game of choice. It was also the only game our college friends had on their personal computing device.
Read SUVUDU for Staggs‘ full memory lane.
And besides, the Empire are the bad guys. The Big Bad. The Black Hats. Who would ever want to play the villains in a game?
