    Isn't it obvious? It's Flight Simulator! It went to 10 games now. Fligh Simulator X is the latest. That was the 2 or 3rd version I think... Who knows. :S

    hi, polygon can you tell me the name of the game that appears at 0:11 ? I am looking for an old DOS game, it is a helicopter game, it´s a shooting game, very primitive, so it is hard to find without knowing the game. DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NAME OF THAT CHOPPER GAME ?

    Dota started that whole sub genre/genre/whatever you want to call that kind of game, which was started by Warcraft.

    Omg, I just saw that game for like a split second I remember playing it in first grade but I can't remember the name of it. All I remember what it is about was it was this robot, girl, and boy on a journy to...uhh. I don't remember it was a really long time ago. I can't explain much of it.
