Tribes (esp. the original for me) is the one of those games that you can go back to time and time again and have a really enjoyable experience, so I am happy.
By far my most favorite game of all time. I think I sank more hours into this particular game than I have any other even to this date. It just have "it," that elusive something that makes a game great. Even now, I think the cooperative multiplayer and strategic aspects have yet to be met.
The idea that you could coordinate an attack via a troop carrier on the main base just as a three man stealth contingent attacks the power generator sub station three clicks to the west, taking down their defenses JUST in time for a smack down of epic proportions from your hidden fusion mortar just on the other side of the hill to take out their gun and sensor emplacements and allow the main invasion team to sweep in the side door and go straight for the main console.... OH YEAH BABY!
Whelp, off to grab one of the greatest games ever (remade and in beta) before the Sierra legal dogs shut this down.
It saddens me why all these great ideas always get the kaibosh when done for non profit. Nobody runs out to shut down the millions of Square fanfics out there. But a Chrono Trigger fan remake? BAD.

Ahem... Yeah... The game was just that good.

Tribes 2 + Paintball mod. Best fun ever.
I only played vanilla Tribes, like, twice. Then I discovered the amazing paintball mods, and never looked back.

Activision might, if their legal units put two and two together though.

Damn, I had completely forgotten about Sierra being absorbed into the Activision borg hive mind.
Well, unless Acti is planning on continuing the Tribes name, maybe this'll stay up then?

There's no worse crime.
As soon as we take these guys down, we go for the guys making that Half-Life mod.
Because,remember, any product, whatsoever, given away for free, would have otherwise have been bought at the retail price, no questions asked.
Just as the RIAA.
