Wait, the story gets even better! You see, after I wiped Cairo off the map, he got real mad and launched all of his nukes at random targets within the huge cluster of big cities around western Russia. My anti-air towers shot down every single freakin' one of 'em.

ME FTW!!!

There's a server up right now called Protovision Internal Services Machine. It's a locked server, but I'm gonna take a wild guess and say the password is "Joshua".

That's a double reference, too. In Wargames, Matthew Broderick (tries to) hacks a server of the same name. The server is also in Uplink, Introversion's first game.

This isn't directly related to Defcon, but I found this:

I love 80's soundtracks, and this one has never been released before.

I just tried the demo, I really like the graphics, has the Tron 2.0 glow look. Looks like vector graphics too, I likey. Only watched someone play a round, I'll have to try maybe this weekend.

I laughed at how the interceptor missiles would fly circles around the ICBMs coming in, I don't think the real ones do that...

[TRON.dll]

I saw Defcon subs and heard some Defcon music in Multiwinia, which is also by Introversion Software.

Btw, what's up with no posts recently? Seriously!

Schools in session?

I just picked up the full game at a local bookstore for five bucks! I also found out that I can, in fact, host games. If you ever see a locked server called "Tron-Sector.com", that's likely me hosting (in-game name is Major Havoc), and the password will be "PBIT". If I'm not hosting a locked game, it'll usually called "InsanitiyMayhem".

See you in the War Room!

Yea, I played that Multiwinia demo too. Very fun game, liked the nuclear subs.

Here's a pretty general strategy guide for Defcon. It's not going to let you win every single time, but it does give some good tips in strategy and basic gameplay.

I've got a pretty good strategy myself, however, counterattacks are something I need to get used to. I usually play Genocide mode, where it's one point per kill. Here's proof that I phail at counterattacks:
------------------------------
Score (Midgame - I just nuked the other player)

Major Havoc = 78
Other Player = -20

Score (End of game - I just got pwnd by a counterattack)

Major Havoc = -10
Other Player = 98
------------------------------
Epic fail on my part, lol.

I fixed the link, and it works now.

Bump this again because I said so.
