I just remembered how much fun I had with Task Force 1942. 

I'd like to see another Task Force 1942.

Somebody finish or remake Guardians Agents of Justice the never finished Microprose superhero game based on xcom.

I'm willing to accept the Freedom Force duology in that exchange.  :peace:

Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe.

Pickup IL1946, it's got all the secret weapons and then some. The newest mod BAT and VP have hundreds of new planes and dozens of new maps. Go to SAS for all your needs.
One of the greatest "what ifs" in history. Alternate History novel - World War Three 1946 - Stalin Strikes First - available on Amazon.com

Hofstadter

Swat 4

Literally the only thing it needs to make it modern and popular is iron sights,  server browser, UI updates and some other kittl bits and bobs.

Great game!

Battlefield 2
The new battlefields don't count. Lol!

M1 Tank Platoon 2
Steel Beasts Pro doesn't have fun dynamic campaigns.

A real oldie, Project Space Station. I loved hiring astronauts, scheduling/launching shuttles, budgeting and building space stations! Just thinking about it makes me want to see if I can find it and play it again somehow.  :smitten:

Totally agree.

Reading through this list it's obvious we need MicroProse back.

Did you just reference The Reverend Horton Heat? I love you.

A bit late, but yes. Yes I did.  Loves me some Reverend and I cannot get enough of rockabilly pin-up girls.

And SSG, Avalon Hill, as well as a number of others.
Regardless of how good a PC game may be it will always have its detractors and no matter how bad a PC game may be it will always have its fans.
