Choosing the Game

I've been playing the original X-Wing on my desktop for a week or so, but there's better options available.

I've always enjoyed XvT more than the other games, but it's the last game in the series, X-Wing Alliance, that has the strongest Modding Community, support, and even today it has people playing online. Add in the better graphics and device support, and it puts Alliance head and shoulders above the other games.

The first thing to consider was bringing the game up to date. If we compare the original SSD model against the updated model available in X-Wing Alliance Upgrade:

It's worth noting that the Upgrade rescales the SSD to it's proper size (17km!)

That thing is 9km away!
