I'd just love to see some of the old pcs stuff get ported. It'd make Phil more money if anything if he solled the pack of all the 20 what ever games for $5. Since the iPhone is popular amung blind users, and the games are simple enough.

I'd like to see this app ported to the pc, maby with sapi or espeak audio and maybe a few sfx.

Re: [Audyssey] what other old dos games would people like to see ported to the iPhone
Hi, That's a good question. There is one Dos game I use to play a lot called 688 where you were a submarine commander in command of a 688 Los Angelis-class attack submarine. Another game I played a lot was Elite which was discussed already on list. More recently I've gotten into the Dos wrestling sims like Piledriver and Wrestling League Manager. I'm sure there are plenty of other Dos games I could think of given enough time, but copyrights and things like that would be a big issue. Cheers!

Hi all. This will not be helpful on the iphone list however I'd also like to see some more games done for the Android platform. We have Stemstumper on there but that's pretty much it so far as I know. There are probably some interpreters for some of the text games out there but I have not really looked into this, I've not really been into text games much these days. Game on.

Re: [Audyssey] what other old dos games would people like to see ported to the iPhone
Don't know if this would fall in to this category, but I used to play two games on Bulletin Board systems. They were Trade Wars and another one which slips my mind. These were multi-player games and you were allowed 60 minutes per day to play. You could go to other galaxies and destroy or plunder planets or develop your own planets moving items from place to place to develop planets and your fleet of fighters. They were much fun. I miss them very much. If anyone remembers these games and can suggest an alternative I would be very happy. Thanks in advance.
