This poll started from Stuwy's thread (see link). I realized that no one has heard of this great game. If anyone has comments to share, feel free to post them. (By the way, this game was included free on the Windows 95 Companion CD, for all you win95 fans)

Is there any site you can get Hover from? I don't think the-underdogs.org has it

It's been a long time since I played Hover, but if I'm not completely wrong here it's somewhat similar to BZFlag, isn't it ? Except BZFlag is online multiplayer, of course.

Sorry Gamer, but I deleted your message because I don't want you to use the forum to hook up with people for private trading. I appreciate that you took some pains here to follow the forum rules.

The thing to do is to first find out if the game is legally distributable and then if it is, you can post a link to it or offer to send a copy to somebody. If the copyright holders haven't explicitly made it freely distributable, then for DROD.net posting purposes, you should assume it isn't.

Carry on, good sir!

[Edited by ErikH2000 on 04-20-2004 at 12:28 AM GMT: Also, since I deleted your post, I don't want you to look like a bad guy out to distribute warez. No, no, you said that you were only interested in sending people a copy if it were legal, which is pretty reasonable.]

No problem...I checked and, knowing Microsoft, I probably could've gotton me and DROD in a lot of something deep.........

FYI - If it was legal, I wouldn't have actually posted it on the forum, and I probably would have gotton sick of people asking me for it too, but all's fair I guess...


P.S. - Check out the website Trick linked...Its a very interesting alternative to Hover! And if you really want the origional...buy the Windows 95 companion CD...its worth it.
