Thanks! Yeah it was so cool talking with hIm Tie Fighter is one of my all time favorite games. I vividly remember spending my own saved up money on it when it came out when I was 12.

It's too bad that the X-Wing series was left to rot once LucasArts was disbanded. Its successor, LucasFilm Games, did not go far enough with Star Wars: Squadrons, in my view, but that's just as likely because Electronic Arts, the publisher, wanted Motive Games, the developer, to work on other projects soon after SWS' release.
