''Battlecruiser 3000AD'' (aka {Link without Title} in Usenet ) is seen to be one of the most-hyped, most-panned, and at the time, the longest-developed games in Computer Game history. It was under development for seven years (see Vaporware ), generating one of the longest and largest Flame War s in the history of Usenet , before publisher Take Two Interactive Software released it in November of 1996 . It was even then released against the wishes of its primary developer Derek Smart , as it was still incomplete and buggy – although even in this state it was able to collect some positive reviews and revenue. Smart sued Take Two (who also released the game in the UK through a sub-license deal with '' GameTek UK ''). Through an out of court settlement, he regained the rights to his game and released it for free on the internet. He continued to develop a new version through his personal company, '' 3000AD '' and in late 1998 he released v2.0 of the game through '' Interplay ''. GAMES IN THE SERIES
