I remember playing Hover on the New Win95 machines at Costco years ago. Didn't that game come with win95? Those were the days. Also, anyone remember a game called Terminal Velocity and Fury3? They were out around the same time and I loved playing those too.

I always wanted to find the full version of Terminal Velocity, but I lived an hour from the nearest best buy, I was broke, and I didn't even know the internet existed at that point.
Back in the day, when I was a PC repair tech, I used to use Hover as a quick and dirty way to test computers - run it from the Win95 CD, you test the CDROM drive, audio, video, etc. That, and I would play the Weezer video of Buddy Holly that was also on the Win95 CD
Man, I don't even know how many hours I sank into Hover as a kid. Really fun game. I have the folder for it that I copied off our old Win95 CD lying around here somewhere. I always thought that the MIDI music sounded remarkably like something straight out of Descent.

that was my first round of music cd's i bought as a kid in 1994, when weezer was kinda cool. along with Pavement, Better Then Ezra, Gin Blossoms Band, and a bunch of other generic indy bands i liked.
I played Hover so much as a little kid (it was very mesmerizing ). The MIDI music really impressed me... I've still got the songs in my head to this day.
