Friday Timewaster

After two decades, I've pretty much given up on ever seeing a quality reboot of the legendary LucasArts PC game TIE Fighter. Apparently Disney is content to squander their dearly-purchased IP on sappy knock-off films targeted at transgendered Millenial race-whiners who need safe spaces in which to watch their adventure movies. Fortunately for we geezer gamers, there's Dark Side. It's a pretty good knock-off of the old TIE Fighter game, made for the Android OS. It lacks the energy management complexities and storyline missions of the original, but it's got the bright green pew-pew and it's shiny and the tilt control actually works (with a little tweaking to your preferences). Oh, and you get to blow up Rebel Scum! How can you resist that?

Of course, if you happen to be Rebel Scum (boo-HSSS) you can fly from the other side of the fight with X-Wing Flight.

Sorry, Fruity people... no Apple versions of this one. THE MACHINE TAKEOVER HAS BEGUN. BOW TO YOUR ANDRO--zzzxt

Sorry about that. Glitch in the Matrix.
