I believe it was officially released on March 5, 1999.

So 3 days ago would be the one year anny!

Happy Birthday SDOE!

Quick! Somebody make a giant b-day cake in OpenPlane!!

What exactly would the flight model for a b-day cake be anyways??

Seriously though, I can't believe its been a year already! I remember chomping at the bit to get off work and go get my reserved copy from the store like it was yesterday... and a year later (2 processors, a hard drive, a vid card and a monitor later) I still fire it up almost everyday! No game since the original Zork series (on my Atari 800 no less) has held my interest as well!

To Parsoft/Inertia/whatever your name is this week - Thank-you! I've gotten more enjoyment out of your work than I would ever have imagined possible. I've got to say it is one of the best $50 I've ever spent!

Long live SDOE, 1 year old and growing up fast!

It is a great achievement.

Hi All,

I recall picking up on the first day it was released at about 11 AM. I'm almost sure it was a Friday. The oldest file I have is dated for SDOE is 3/4/99, but 3/5/99 was the Friday.

LOL, I went to CompUSA the day it was released and made the clerk go get it from the backroom because they had not even put it on the shelf yet.

Best game I have ever played. It has saved me a ton of money. I don't have time to play/buy other games.

Thanks MH and crew and all of you that have added to this and made this a great year.

Actually FS went "gold" on 3/8/99 and probably hit the streets three or four days later.

My plan from that date is still available http://lynx.inertiagames.com/~michael/fingerArchive2.html
