Wow... I havent seen a game like that since "Bombs" back in like 92. How do you play Midway? I couldn't grasp the thing just by looking at the UI.

Midway was 1942 Just one byte off. That's pretty damn accurate.

AAsh, if you don't like this game, WHY are you still posting in this thread? You're not going to convince anyone here that it's rubbish just by acting like a self-centered self-righteous troll. Some people like it; you don't. That's the way it is. Get over it and find another thread to post in. Period.

This all reminds me of when the Internet was young, before most people realized that you should not talk to people on the Internet differently than you talk to them in real live person.

actually, it reminds me of the REST of the internet. I sure hope this kind of behavior does not catch on, round here.

even in the BBS days, things were divided between civil communities and the unkempt barbarians at the gate. everythings bigger now, and the twits are more numerous.

im happy that the player base is expanding, but a bit upset to see the bottom falling out on our least common denominator.

You don't like appeasing? Fine.

[censored] off. Hows that for a lack of appeasement? People like you seem to only understand things when people descend to your level. It's just too bad certain words are censored.

Can we please stop feeding the troll and let this thread return to its purpose? Any response is what he wants... Thanks.
