SGJ Podcast #329 – MicroProse Then and Now




Space Game Junkie Podcast show

Summary: <br> Ah Memories…<br> <br> <br> <br> Welcome to this week’s podcast y’all! This week, <a href="https://www.alienpickle.com/">Jim</a>, <a href="https://www.cosmictrio.com/">Spaz</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/The_Tablefortwo">Hunter</a> and I talk about the classic gaming company, MicroProse. After dominating PC gaming for nearly two decades, MicroProse became defunct in the early 2000s. Their time with us, however, brought us many games we’re still playing to this day, such as Civilization, XCOM, Master of Orion and many more. Recently the name has been resurrected, as you can see on their <a href="https://microprose.com/">website</a>, so we talk about the company’s legacy, its new games, and also have a lot of tangents. <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> Next week on the show, we’ll be talking to the developer of the amazing <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/551620/Approaching_Infinity/">Approaching Infinity</a>!
