I remember buying Close Combat a Bridge too far at Virgin Records many many years ago. All those bright red and blue tracer lines suppressing my units and launching fog. I remember how underwhelming the tanks felt sometimes
- lutorm 10y agoIt's been a couple of years now, but I still load up A Bridge Too Far every now and then! It's the only 20-year old game I know that's still fun. It's getting hard to run on current machines, though, with its hard-coded screen sizes and a scroll speed that's unusably fast.
- mikeash 10y agoIt's one of my favorites as well. I haven't run it in several years, but last I tried it you could get custom screen sizes by manually editing the configuration file. The tanks definitely felt underwhelming sometimes, but overwhelming other times. It depended a lot on the environment, the type of tank, and the enemy units, which seems pretty realistic. It was interesting and terrifying how invulnerable some of the better German tanks could be.
