I have never ran across the P.C. version but I did have an Colecovision Wargames that was based on the movie, hokey but fun back in the day. You may give it a try through an emulator and you should be fairly safe that way.

Was it an RTS game?

Also, what emulators do you use? I can't find any PS1 emulators

the game was top notch, i had its beta somewhere on a golden disc (EA used to send them for testing and pre-publis advertising to people including my uncle) but ive now lost it. it was 3d, a good campaign, a great arsenal to battle with, and while this topic has aged, the request lives- where to get Wargames?

If you are talking about the RTS Wargames, then beware, the game came with a virus in it.
I am not touching it with a 50ft toothpick.

Yeah, but a virus that was then cured instantly by a patch and will also be annihilated by any decent antivirus program, I reckon...

yeah, i don't think there would be much trouble getting rid of the virus, hell, i doubt the virus would be of alot danger anyway- it is so old that any half-good antivirus could block it...

Oh and i don't think the computer version was called Defcon One, it was just "Wargames" for PC and "Wargames: Defcon One" for PSX and as far as ive read, PSX one has a very different gameplay (you could drive vehicles etc.).

Ive played and had the computer version, it is the only other strategy game next to C&C that i played nonstop during my earlier youth.

If this site does not plan on getting this game, then could someone please forward me to the virus infected rip/iso...

Hmm this is a dilemma indeed...

Does anyone know of ANYWHERE to get the full game, other than eBay?

I bought my 'Wargames for PC' CD off Amazon - $12.00 ( +P&P) in 2006. No virus. I still use it. We play multiplayer mode regularly ( group of 4). The graphics are, er , unbelievable - but its a great strategy game - one of the best of its kind.
