We've got a fun video to share today! LOAF participated in a special stream to celebrating the upcoming 30th anniversary of Wing Commander 3. He joined MaruMalandra's Twitch channel to play through The Heart of the Tiger. LOAF was broadcasting live on the camera, but I also really like the...

AD spotted this new Instagram Reel posted by Microsoft. It features a Sidewinder joystick and a trackball mouse under the caption, "Taking a trip to the '90s." The interviewee explains, "Back in the '90s, everyone wanted to be playing space games like Wing Commander..." and goes on about how...

About a decade ago, there was a push to modernize Strike Commander and implement a fan remake that could be playable on the then-emerging field of VR/AR headsets. The thought was that it would be similar to the WC4 Remake and be an up-cycling that built on the game's original assets...

There's an incredible new update to Origin composer George Oldziey's project to make a new live orchestra Wing Commander album! Mr. Oldziey is traveling to Salt Lake next week to record the choral elements of his new album. He would then transition into the mixing and editing phase. On that...

Zyxophoj continues to pull back the curtain and reveal more of what's going on in the Privateer Alpha! He's put together a new video to explain how to work through the last several systems of the game. As this build was mainly intended as a preview for reviewers and testing, it starts to burst...

The recent Hellcat sketch commission seemed to have kicked off a wonderful snowball effect. Countvonschnaps now has three more Wing Commander designs on deck. His Arrow is wonderfully detailed and I really like that red canopy glass. The Rapier is also really rugged and seems to have some...

WC3 does that here and there. You can skip the kissing scenes in the bar entirely and neither Rachel nor Flint gets mad at you, and then you get the no-girlfriend ending to boot.

It's been almost 30 years since actor Chris Mulkey filmed his role in Wing Commander 4, but he continues to maintain a very busy working schedule. His resume includes hundreds of roles, many of which are secondary characters or in short films. He seems to gravitate towards this type of...

We've got an amazing week on tap if you are someone who is fascinated with the ground textures of Wing Commander 4! Yesterday LOAF showed off the different landscapes featured in both WC3/4, including how WC4 differentiates itself by no longer just being a collection of monochrome planes...

Yeah, you can't privately crowdfund a Wing Commander game without Electronic Arts. That's why "Star Citizen" exists.

We've got a couple different types of items to share from Wing Leader this weekend. First up, Howard Day has finished the Lumbari transport, which is an awesome derivative of his recent Dorkir model. He's also in the process of implementing advanced lighting effects within the various fighter...

Former Origin composer George Oldziey is back home after his work in Europe last month to record the new Wing Commander album. There's still a lot more work yet to do, including the choral recording next month, but he's put together two samples of WC3 and Prophecy tracks to give fans an idea...

Starfleet Design recently posted this wonderful Star Trek logo on Twitter. He's done a fantastic job marrying the text with little Starfleet deltas as a tribute to the classic Wing Commander logo. It also makes me think of the way that Wing Commander Arena repurposes the afterburning craft...

Noel Shourai stopped in to show off the fun John Rhys-Davies autograph that he picked up last weekend at Fan Expo Canada. LOAF originally recommended he print and use one of the sharp black and white set photos, and the results turned out great: It's also not the first time someone has...

Howard Day has upsized from his recent string of Kilrathi fighters and put together an absolutely gorgeous Kilrathi Dorkir tanker/transport. It's beautifully rendered here in his retro pixel style while also departing a bit from his sprite-oriented design as a full 3D model. He's posted videos...
