I remember watching The Last Star Fighter and waiting for the game to accidentally show up in my home town. It should be no surprise it never did. I slowly came to the sad realization I would never get to play the game that could decide the fate of the universe.

Luckily, the crushed dreams of a child can be reversed thanks to technology. The site Rogue Synapse has a download of The Last Star Fighter and I may have my chance at piloting one of the fantastic ships.  They also have some great pictures. Unfortunatly I am running my Mac and I will have to do a bit of tweaking to get the .exe to work, so I am a bit SOL for now.

With a little faith, and maybe a partitioned hard drive, I might still have a chance. I really hope they included the “special button”. For those of you who have no idea what I am talking about, you probably shouldn’t be reading this. Go out and rent The Last Star Fighter and prepare to have your life changed for ever.
