Xwing and Tie-fighter. Before that, Dune2.

And Doom, obviously (It's pre 95, isn't it?). Arrghh!! Too many games, I have played. Blurred, my memory is.

Mine was Final Fantasy III for the SNES. Wasted many hours on that game while I was in college. Second favorite was the original Wing Commander for PC.

Ooh yeah, too bad the series went downhill after Wing Commander 2.
The ships no longer had that "feel" of them like the Rapier or the Sabre.
