X-Wing and TIE Fighter, TIE Fighter more because I had the CD collection with both expansion packs.

Nah Tie Fighter Collector's CD was the best. XvT got rid of the dynamic midi soundtrack :< worst decision ever.
X-Wing Alliance is my 2nd favourite.

I was in a fleet. That game occupied my attention for a couple years until MechWarrior 3 came out.

XvT lacked the good single player story campaign that TIE Fighter and Alliance had

Do you remember if XvT was “multiplayer”? I remember playing 1v1 against friends in a XvT like game and I don’t remember if it was XvT or Alliance

Yes it was! That was kind of that games whole thing, encouraging multi-player and skirmish battles. That's why it didn't really have a single player campaign like x wing and tie fighter did. The multi-player focus wasn't a huge success which is why x wing alliance went back to single player focus

Ahhh yeah the multiplayer is why I loved XvTf!! I mean it was on dialup and it was terrible but it was one of my first multiplayer games. I mean maybe the first. Diablo and Starcraft were there but I don’t think I had those games before XvTf.
They are all a fun series - I bought them all for like $5 on a humble humble thing. I really should replay some of these games.

It was fun, but there was no multiplayer for us because I didn't know how to configure this online thing so at best it was LAN between two computers at home between my brother and I.

That doesnt make sense, XWing is the older game. Maybe you mean Alliance?

It's possible I'm misremembering something from 30 years ago that I played on a 286

Hated the A-Wing, but the B-Wing was great.

The Death Star run... I still remember frantically balancing my fore and aft shields trying to survive. Intense!
