Old, outdated, but fun!

I got this game when it first came out. At the time, it was amazing. Now, the graphics are terrible by today's standards, the engine isn't as srong as in Chessmaster or Fritz, and it's sometimes difficult getting it to run on XP. But regardless, it was and still is a great game. It brings back a lot of memories, and I still enjoy playing it. Some of the execution animations are funny too. My only two wishes are that they would make a modern version of this game, and that they would bring back chinese chess, which I enjoy playing more than regular chess. Now I have CM10th ed and Fritz 9, but I still come back to this classic every now and then.
