If you're not going to be on original hardware then you should play Star Control II through the Ur-Quan Masters port.

i will second this. ur-quan masters is almost a perfect port, and i believe gets updayes hear and their. only difference is how it looks and voice-acting is gone. but that should make no difference.

Actually, you can still get the voice acting with UQM. It takes the 3DO source and adds back in all the features removed from the PC version, and lets you toggle between 3DO vs. PC. So you can have voices or not, have alien text or not, and have the various displays be in text or as icons. The only thing missing is the opening and ending cinematics, as those were not released.

It's an optional addon pack. On the downloads page scroll down and you'll see the voices (and also the music remix packs).

I assume Battlesport is two-players? Looks promising, but it seems like the type of game that would benefit a lot more from four players than two.
