Original SC1 and SC2 manuals found!

Just wanted to say that I've found the PDFs of the original manuals for SC1 and SC2 - that is, the manuals that came with the original floppy releases of the games. The manual PDFs that widely circulate on the net came from the Star Control Collection CD re-release in 1995. As far as I know, those P...

Re: Sequels strife

I've just seen the video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E95izB4i0G4). Lior Leser criticizes F&P for sending the DMCA notice against SCO, saying that they've had their way now, but that will only antagonize Stardock and their fans (which is already happening). Leser says that if and when F&...

Re: Stardock CEO threatens to "eliminate" this community

Stardock has purchased the entire Accolade's share of the Star Control IP. That includes the trademark, the copyright to SC3, and apparently the copyright to things like the box art to the games and the printed starmap for SC2.
