My kingdom for a...

Out of all the games I have seen ported over to the PPC one of the one's I would kill for was a old DOS based Star Trek game I used to play when I first got into computers in High School. I don't remember the name of it bit is was based on a grid and you input your coordinates to move around.

I thought it was cool at the time (still do in some ways). So if anyone knows of a version of this game for the PPC let me know.. :!:

Once you find the game, just get PocketDOS, and you should be able to play it without any problems.

I'm doing that with an old game called Snipes that I loved as a kid.
Good Luck!

I was just posting the same thing on my own forum only yesterday -but I played Main Frame Star Trek (http://www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/startrek/) on the DEC PDP 1170 -if you know what that is then you're old like me! :)

If someone would port the DOS version to the Pocket PC with some spruced up graphics it would definitely sell!!! 8)
