I was thinking about how I remember Maxis fondly, and I got to wondering what other people’s experiences were like!

Is your favorite still around? Are they still the same, or did they “change directions under new management?”

Dynamix’ Earthsiege was such a magical thing back then. So were Bullfrog’s Syndicate, Theme Hospital and Dungeon Keeper. Many, many years ago when Peter Molyneux was not a dumbass but gave us gems like Populous and Black&White.

The list of games that EA has destroyed is long.

I loved Earthsiege! IIRC I got the game with an expansion card (STI Lightning 128?), and it really was fun playing with my first flight stick, a CH Products flight stick.
