    Wing Commander Standoff: Episode Five Released (August 11, 2009)

    Standoff team deserves happy cush retirement in my opinion, once they add the finishing touches to ep 5. They've spent 5 years on Standoff and before that it was Unknown Enemy. That's a lot of work for the WC community for which they'll always be remembered as long as there exists a community of...

    WAHHH this crash bug is killing me :-(. Keeps crashing the game after the base assault mission in episode 1. I've played it three times hoping I could get through without it crashing but it always does it after the mission is over. But good news is I'm getting closer. 1st time crashed as...

    BREAKING NEWS: EA Files for New Wing Commander Trademark (August 11, 2009)

    That's interesting that they didn't wait until 2012. Most suspicious!

    I feel the pain. I spent four years with a lousy Intel 915GM Chipset. Oh it was painful. PAINFUL I TELL YOU. oh you don't know the pain. For a gamer it was utterly wretched. Wretched I say! And it was a laptop so.... no upgrading! Then in June I got a shiny 9600M GT card. Oh it does wonders...

    Last Words: A New Birth of Fandom (August 11, 2009)

    I've been a part of the WC community since '97 and I also remember when the CIC was founded. Hell I used to post on Chris Reid's AOL newsgroup before there existed a CIC. Wing Commander is my favorite game of all time, I enjoy stopping by here and seeing what's new with it. I don't post on...

    I can also confirm that the memory bug doesn't have to happen at all if you play two missions consecutively. Was just playing mission 2 of episode 1, after having loaded it up fresh today, and it crashed at the end just as I was about to land. Cry! :-). I'm sure you all will get it...

    Wing Commander Standoff: Episode Five Released (August 11, 2009)

    Updating drivers worked. WOW the game looks -spectacular- now. I especially love the new explosion effects. And all these additional cutscenes inserted into the prologue are quite a treat! I lost all my old Standoff saves and so need to replay eps 1 - 4 to play ep 5, but with all these new...

    Wing Commander Standoff: Episode Five Released (August 11, 2009)

    I'm getting a black screen too. Only when I use HDR though. I have a 9600M GT card and the FAQ says I should be able to run HDR... unsure what's up.

    Wing Commander MUSH revival?

    Haha I remember that. 'Unification War'. Confees wiped out my beloved TGE but at least the Union stopped them cold in the Sirius debris field ;-).

    WC SNES

    Pffffffft. You weren't 9 years old and playing it. WC SNES IS the reason why I'm here on this website today.

    Star Wars: Empire at War

    I've played it. It's okay. Nothing special, really, the Star Wars theme is good but it doesn't make a game. Honestly, Sins of a Solar Empire is the best thing going in that particular genre right now, I'd look at that instead if I were you.

    Left 4 Dead?

    I love Left 4 Dead. I think it's the best co-op game I've ever played. If you play on public matches, you should play on advanced and expert difficulties. Not just for the added challenge though. Players on those difficulties tend to just play the game more how it's supposed to be played, they...

    Wing Commander MUSH revival?

    You can do both though. On Red Horizon for instance, we had a lot of people living the independent life. Trading, RPing, hanging out, doing their own thing. It was optional to join the game's militaries. Among the Space Force branch of the militaries learning the (basic) math and acquiring the...

    Wing Commander MUSH revival?

    Ol' Josh Fowler! I remember you man, you were my CO on the TCS Churchill for a while ;-). Beyond the Fire's Hspace code was quite excellent and I would love to see it live on as well and applied to another Wing Commander mush in the future.

    My Xbox got the Red Ring of Death...

    Reading the posts that've been made here since I last was on this thread in August... just going to note that when I got my 360 back a few months ago it WAS indeed a brand new one. Quite happy with it still too.

    Xbox 360 unable to read game disk

    Yea I agree with that. Call up the manager. They're usually more reasonable and your-business-desiring than the ground floor guys.

    Xbox 360 unable to read game disk

    That is a bummer about your disc drive. I don't really know much about how the warranty works for non-RRoD issues. I just got a replacement 360 from Microsoft yesterday after my old one of about 18 months RRoD'd. It had a lot of disc read errors over the course of its lifetime but they were...
