I missed it, what was his avatar and why was it offensive? I'm curious now 'cause it caused so much controversy. That's how Salman Rushdie sells his books, you know. :P

Thank you for changing it. It was highly offiensive to me to see that kind of ingnorat and certianly lame attempt at being funny posted someones avatar. The advents that hilter caused are certainly one of histories darkest moments not to be taken lightly or even joked about the way your avatar did. I am glad you changed it and hope maybe someday you will see why jokes about that are not funny in the least. Would you want somebody joking about that if was your hertiage and your relatives that slain abused for the pourpose of insane man. The big deal is that millions of people die for the cause of one insane man and others who very souls are tarnished by the envents that took place in the camps that they where forced to stay.Basically what your post did was advocate for their cause even if it was meant in a joking matter it isn't funny. Thank You again.

Hello there i believe the game you are thinking of is Escape Velocity Override, you can download a free trial of it from the companys website Here . Note that EVO is only compatible with Pre Mac OSX computers no Windows. You can however buy a copy of the sequel Escape Velocity Nova: Here and then get a plug-in for it that makes it EVO.

Escape Velocity Nova is availible for both Mac OSX Windows and older macs and is one of the best games i have ever played and it is definately worth the money. I understand your emotions in wanting to find this game as i too spent many years of my childhood playing EVO and the original EV

Way - but just a brief historical note on the whole Hitler issue - he was not insane, in fact if you read "Mein Kampf" you would learn that Hitler was in fact an astonishingly (and perhaps this is the most worrying thing of all) sane and intelligent man. The book, written before his days of leadership within the Nazi party, actually proclaims his respect for the Jewish people as hard working honest citizens. The reason he led the Germans against Jews is because the Germans back then resented the prosperous Jewish communities in Germany. Hitler played on that to gain votes and thus, come to power and go down in history (or so he thought) as the man who led Germany to glory. Another interesting fact - if you dissect national socialism, and remove the elements of ethnic cleansing and white supremacy, what you are left with is in fact an amazingly well designed form of communism that could really work. If Hitler's political policies, minus the anti-racial element, had been implemented in, for example, Russia, it's most likely Russia would be a very prosperous and powerful country now. Lecture ends here. :P

PS : I do not condone Hitler's actions.

Whatever. The request has been answered, and Nazi ideology is not a proper subject for discussion in this forum.

You want to talk about it, take that to 3x Blah.

Any time of socialism looks good on paper but you know what ruins the "perfect" system? PEOPLE! If it wasn't for people things would run right. But people's corruption and greed always destroys perfect theories. As the old saying goes power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely. A deemocracy may not be the best but it is better than any dictatorship from the left or right. And this is a game forum not a politidal forum. So lets stick to thesubject this forum has in hand.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(MrBackAlleySka @ Mar 9 2006, 12:21 AM) [snapback]212787[/snapback]</div>Escape Velocity (1996) Developed & Published by Ambrosia Software
On Ambrosia main site you can download the game, but it seems shareware.
