This is what I played (and enjoyed) way back when. I actually thought I was accomplishing something:

When Richard Branson released Space Shuttle By Virgin I thought that was the end all, Be all.. My favorite mission was to release the surveillance satellite, The ISS was still in development, So I dont remember any rendezvous or docking operations.  I just saw some screenshots of it and it looked totally un-playable now. How times have changed.

So everytime I read a complaint post about SSM2007 I just laugh. I'm from the stone age as far as gaming goes. I thank the stars and shade that EXCITING SIMULATIONS took the gamble and brought shuttle simulations into the 21st century.

I totally agree to your words. I am also form the "stone-age"  ;D in term of PC games. I have enjoyed 1992 Space Shuttle and btw the original box is still mine. However SSM2007 brings the world of simulation an extraordinary piece of software. I am really happy to see that this kind of "games" can still survive.

GREAT works Exciting Simulations  :D

Cheers,

No - Thank YOU. Without our customers' support and confidence we wouldn't have gotten so far.

Hi from another Virgin ( ;D) fan

Actually, I've just recently kicked out the box but I did pull out the poster showing all the panels and buttons. Of course, the shuttle have had more than one upgrade since then, but you can still use the general layout.

However, I am giving serious considerations to buying the new poster :)
