    Gamestop interview: Chris Roberts: Why I've Come Back to Gaming

    On the Radar screen with the Kilrathi emblem, if you pause it at the right time, the text seems to say... WARNING Hostile Signal FF SIG ID KILRATHI_V

    Gamestop interview: Chris Roberts: Why I've Come Back to Gaming

    Where did that come from? Leakage???? With that and CR saying he wants to meld the Wing Commander experience with the privateer/freelancer experience in one game... I may just explode now.

    Windows7 and Sidewinder joystick (USB)

    I own a Forcefeedback 2. I love the stick, but it's getting so bloody hard to get it to work correctly. Getting the button mapping software to even install work is even more difficult. I'd end up not playing games, because I knew I'd have to wrestle with getting it to work first. In the end I...

    Dr Who

    I don't see the Alt Doctor being human as a particular problem, after all John Smith was human in Family of Blood. As for the dimensions being closed, we all know that those walls are closed only as long as long as it is convenient for the writers. :) I'd like to see more of Jenny though!

    Dr Who

    I dunno LOAF, the modern Doctor Who is pretty careful about not stamping on previous Who lore. I would actually be very surprised if they just dismissed the whole thing so easily. As for the foreshadowing, they could have been doing it all along (like the 4 rhythmic beats and the Master). They...

    It's not Wing Commander

    If it's a prequel, how amazingly fantastic would it be if the campaign's finale missions were custers carnival, on board the 'Claw? I mean from reading the little history of that event, it would certainly be a challenging endgame!

    Dr Who

    There is an easy way for them to overcome the 13 regenerations... For the Season 3 two parter 'Human nature'/'Family of blood', the Doctor puts his consciousness into the fob watch to hide. When he does this, his body becomes human. In the season 4 finale - 'Journeys end', the meta-crisis...

    WC1 Kilrathi Saga Random Colour Invertion

    KS is getting harder and harder to run. The problem with win7 64, is that compatibility mode can only go back to 32 bit emulation (and 16 bit emulation in win7 32). With all that trouble, you could try running a virtual machine, installing XP (or earlier) on it and off you go.

    It's not Wing Commander

    I believe Chris Roberts said that if he went back to Wing Commander, he'd like to do a reboot. I'll agree that with the date of today's article (2610) and the date of the Vega campaign from WC1 (2654) so close, with 11 days to go, it looks less likely. However if it is a reboot it doesn't have...

    Prepare for Magnum Launch! (September 27, 2012)

    With the latest Time Capsule dated as 2610, it's looking less likely to fit the Wing Commander timeline :(

    WC Arena Play Dates

    I'd buy Arena if I was assured of people to play with. I only got an Xbox last year, so I never bought the thing.

    Repetition Stresses Image Details - RSI Concept Breakdown (September 10, 2012)

    A couple of things have occurred to me... Why does it have to be a Privateer OR a Wing Commander game? With the resources available with todays tech, why could a game not incorporate both? Go fight for humanity on the frontier, or go trade and explore. Or.... with the Wing Commander IP...

    Privateer Playtester's Guide - Ebay

    Saw this and thought it was worth pointing out... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Wing-Commander-Privateer-w-PlayTesters-Guide-PC-game-/250853273475?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3a68052f83 I dunno if it is common/useless or anything like that, but I have never seen it before myself. It's way too...

    WC: The Secret Missions for the Amiga?

    I'll try my best to answer you both here... I always have been the creative type. That means from a young age I wrote, drew, programmed and edited games all of the time. Because of this, today I do an awful lot of creative things and I haven't the time I once had. Currently on my list of...

    WC: The Secret Missions for the Amiga?

    No news at the moment. I have an amiga 1200, but my hard disk is not working. Without that I don't have access to my programming utilities, which is what I'd use to look at the files on the amiga. I also don't have the means to transport the files onto a PC readable disk. If anyone knows where I...

    WC1 Colour Ribbons image

    Speaking of ribbons and medals in WC1, I'd always use a failed Ralari mission as a good opportunity to get a golden sun.

    Doing that YouTube review thing

    The video was pretty good. Nicely cut, no scene lagged and got boring like a lot of these reviews can. Good stuff. The audio... That lets you down. First, the recording itself is very muddy (that's an av tech term :) ). I guess what I mean is that there is a lot of noise that makes it hard to...

    WC: The Secret Missions for the Amiga?

    Cheers :) I', guessing the chances of him remembering are slim, but it's worth a shot before I go bother Mario

    Poll - Still With Us? (August 11, 2012)

    Hi! Great to see a member of the original WC team, though the reasons for it happening are sad. I wondered if you know the answer to something I've been tying to puzzle out for a while. I've got a wing commander campaign editor I've been working on for some time. I've had to mine data from...
