So: Command and Conquer, Dune II, and Red Alert are the obvious choices.

Staying on music, the lyrics from One Winged Angel light up the stereos of many a Final Fantasy fan, but who actually wrote those lyrics?
Nobuo Uematsu?

Carl Orff. Most of the lyrics are from various songs in Carmina Burana.
Except the Sephiroth bit.

Well, if we want to be really picky about it, Carmina Burana comes from a medieval manuscript written by monks around the 13th century. Carl Orff took the poems and based his opera off of them.

So, who asks the next question now?

what did the first joystick that didn´t have a base to place on a table but was held in the air and, btw, controlled with only one hand use to recognize the players input instead of mechanical contacts?

also: what was the name of this joystick?

Ah, my turn. In which game(s) does the country Eritrea exist in your campaign threatre?

Side question: does the country really exists or just a fictitious one?

Answering the side question: yes it does. It's in Africa on the coast of the Red Sea, bordered by Ethiopia (the two have been warring for quite some time, despite both being extremely poor third world countries) which it used to be a part of.

I ended a sentence with a preposition. :(
