There are still people playing this game, and more are coming every day.
Please check out this website for more info, patches and fixes.

The new Reverb Gaming lobby (www.reverbgaming.com) looks a lot like the old msn gaming zone.

Hope to see you soon, and fly you later :)

This is GREAT NEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!1
BUT if the make it they must expand only on the pc version of the game.The original crimson skies a pc game was and is among my most beloved games of all time…

It had it all: A great 30′s atmosphere taken from actuall 30′s usa zeppelins and aircrafts, with some dose of error flyn movies for the characters and maybe even some tailspin as far as some mission went…

A remake of that game with larger levels,more details everywhere and a more open approach with many secondary mission objectives all rounded with the option of the original physics and a little more realistic model would be awesome…

I sincerely hope they don’t make it like the xbox sequal to crimson skies with totaly arcade physics(you didnt need a joystic to fly and it was completely fake) ,stupid arcade flying power ups…( i am not kidding you…yap there were flying powerups and stupid magic…powers…) …

Stunt Island was quite simply the greatest game ever made for the PC platform.

That’s how you write about Stunt Island.

Hey does anyone remember an old game called “Sand Warriors”? Kind of an Egyptian themed sci fi flight sim… I always wondered if it was any good…

The tarot thing ties in to Nathan Zachary’s Gypsy heritage, and it’s simply the logo of the fortune hunters. Take a look for it on the side of the pandora in both incarnations.

I loved everything about Crimson Skies. The art direction, the voice acting, the cheese, the MUSIC (the menu music is happily burned in my memory forever and is playing now in my head).

Sadly, I was shit at it, as with any flight simulator. I’d launch the game, get all excited in the menu, set up my plane to the finest detail, then start flying and crashing into the ground or trying vainly to keep any target in my crosshairs. “Aw, shucks…” I would go.

@DarkNoghri

As far as I can tell, HRTR was really more of a re-imagining than a direct sequel. It did change a few characters and story elements around – tho I can’t remember specifics.

@Dante

It didn’t feel right calling it that, but if HRTR was technically a ‘sequel’ (which it may not have been), I would think the first would be a ‘prequel,’ at least retroactively. I mean, what would you call it?

While I usually hate arcade-style flight games, and prefer to spend a half hour flipping switches to get my bird into the sky, Crimson Skies just had too much style for me not to appreciate it. While I wish the flight model were a little less absurd, it was great fun and I’d love to see more of it on the PC.
