SC1 and 2 were both excellent games. Having said that, the only reason to buy this pack is for SC1... SC2 has been released in an improved format as freeware (look up "Ur Quan Masters project") SC1's campaign mode is pretty decent, as it plays on a randomly generated map every time, so it will always be different. This is really the only reason to pay for this. The super melee mode is offered in SC2, so if thats all that interests you, just go download SC2. SC2's combat plays identical to the combat in SC1, featuring more ships (with the loss of three of the original ships in the story mode, still present in the melee mode) and features a much more vast exploration map and an interactive feature with each race. again... only buy it if you really want Star Control 1. SC2 is by far the superior entry in the series and you can get it for free.
