My brother and I got this game for our birthday when we were kids. We had tons of fun creating creating our own custom creatures and watching the ecosystem play out, plus we learned a lot about how health ecosystems work. I was never very good at it, so I couldn't get the city to grow much, and I'd love to take another crack at it now. There aren't many games like this, and it would be great for it to reach a wider audience.
I played this game so much as a kid. The endless hours carefully picking the right combination of plants, herbivores and carnivores to bring into balance the perfect ecosystem. The constant chasing of 'bubble spore' to capture and release further upwind - why didn't the darn wind ever change direction? The carnage of dropping just a few too many Rancor into an overcrowded area. Terraforming swamp into rock or vice versa to create ecological partitions. Setting the harvest limit to maintain a population of 17 Green Glie just because I knew the high reproduction rate could handle it. Randomly causing earthquakes because I was amused by Jar Jar's freakout. The simple joy of this ecosystem builder was never replaced for me in any other game I've perused, and there could be so much potential if this one got a little love with updated graphics and creature catalogue.
My brother in law used to have a HUGE collection of games burned in CDs, complete with their cover art and everything. This was one of the games he had and I remember playing it even before i watched the movie. I spent so many hours playing around with this game, getting lost in (what I remember) the very complex interactions different life forms have with one another.
I tried playing it again recently, but it's very annoying to set up on modern computers, and even after a lot of fiddling it still has tons of bugs that make it unplayable for me. I'd love to see such an unique game being brought back to life.

Metal Gear Solid HD CollectionFrom the critically acclaimed director, Hideo Kojima, Metal Gear Solid HD Collection offers a handful of the most popular Metal Gear Solid titles from the past in true HD for the first time ever. Featuring three complete games, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, the HD Collection offers old and new fans a chance to experience the epic game play, design and storytelling of the MGS franchise. The "Metal Gear Solid (MGS)" series is the seminal work of Hideo Kojima, Japan's master game creator, and the progenitor of the stealth action game genre. The series has become a global phenomenon, with over 27 million copies sold worldwide. The player controls a secret agent from an elite special forces unit who is sent on solo sneaking missions through enemy installations, vast jungles, and sometimes even the thick of battle. Alone and surrounded by the enemy, even a special forces agent will find it tough to come out alive. But that is the secret behind the series' popularity-the cerebral challenge of figuring out how to avoid combat, and the thrill of sneaking through enemy territory undetected.The MGS series is also known for its storyline, which blends seamlessly with the gameplay. The scenarios are based on extensive research and incorporate the drama of actual developments in society. These elements have made MGS what it is today: a mature work of entertainment that transcends national borders and the confines of video games, and one of the leading products of the Japanese content business.Action Stealth
