I recently had the urge to play a game of Magic Realm, and I've also been visiting http://www.boardgamegeek.com to see what others have said about the games I'm playing. That is where I discovered that there is a Java applet called RealmSpeak which just released v0.34 three days ago. I haven't tried the applet, but BoardGameGeek also has a PDF of the unofficial Third Edition rules (v3.1), which I have downloaded.

EFS remake, YES!
Car Wars on a computer, YES!
Ogre/GEV on the PC, YES YES YES!
The problem with the latter two is that Steve Jackson has thus far refused to license his work for development of a computer game.
I really, really admire SJ, but he's got a major stick up his butt on this point  |

Once bitten, twice shy. He's been burned by computer companies before. Fallout is the one I remember, but ISTR there were others.

Pffft, that's like saying, "A girl broke my heart once, so now I'm going to become a priest."

Re: What Kind Of Games Would You Like To See Made?
Oh, and I still play EFS occasionally.
Then again, I still bust out Lords of Magic from time to time, as well  |
