RPG week continues today with the Battle for Enigma RPG. The game is one of the more established RPGs having first started in December 2001. The story is based around the 380th Fighter Squadron, also known as the Black Eagles, and takes place between 2667 and 2669. Their role playing forum...

Like the scoreboard index page says, the stats are updated every five minutes. You probably didn't wait long enough before checking. If it's not there now, it's possible that your internet connection stalled as the game tried to submit the score.

A key part of any Wing Commander mod is to get the designs right, and the way players interact outside the cockpit is just as important as how fighter craft handle in space. A WC mod with a Freespace scheme would detract from the atmosphere, but Tolwyn has addressed this by redesigning...

If you've ever wanted a WC4 style Christopher Blair action figure, AD may have stumbled across the answer. In a move reminiscent of Sid from Toy Story, a guy called Dedcat has ripped the head off of a Luke Skywalker figure and stuck it on the body of an AT-ST driver figure. After adding some...

That game has by far the best graphics I've ever seen in a space sim, but it seriously needs a tutorial. I only played it for 10 minutes.

I've had an LCD TV for about three weeks now. The picture quality from high definition sources (I've tried my xbox 360 and my PC) is amazing. But the trouble with low definition sources is that the resolution is scaled up to fit the panel which makes impurities more obvious. Projection based...

For the past month or so the Wing Commander Universe mod team has been piecing together a new Hellcat model for their game. Of course no ship is complete without a cockpit, and a complete 3D reconstruction of WC3's Hellcat cockpit is in the works. It is still considered a work in progress, but...

Readers who've been following the HTL fiction arc have had to wait for the latest chapter, but there's been a good reason. Lead writer Raptor has been extra busy at work, supplying drugs to the sick and dying. Fear not, chapter 207 has arrived. So, now you know who to contact for all your...

People magazine has announced their list of the sexiest men of 2005, and Privateer 2 star Clive Owen makes the list as one of their "hottest picks." Their write-up describes him as a "6'2" green-eyed stunner" and quotes Angelina Jolie, who once called him "one of the best kissers." It has been a...

Gemini Gold has received its first upgrade since the project's initial release back in July. After a month of beta testing, the team has deemed the highly anticipated update ready for public consumption. Gemini Gold is a project that takes the fan made Privateer Remake game and makes it more...

Every year we miss out on thousands of hours of the other events going on at Dragon*Con. Fortunately many of the other 20,000+ attendees capture the action and post their galleries for all to enjoy. Many of you have already seen our galleries from this year, and now you can look at the other fan...

A new update to the WC Saga site has added pictures of the latest visual effect in the mod: advanced shock waves. The newest member of the game's development team, DaBrain, has been able to implement realistic three dimensional shock waves in the Freespace 2 engine. It looks like they brighten...

It's time to dig out your telescopes. Tomorrow will bring Mars much closer to Earth than usual - only 43.1 million miles. That might sound like a lot, but Mars usually sits about 140 million miles away. The planet made a similar pass in 2003, but its position on the horizon should make it more...

The patch that will bring Privateer Gemini Gold to version 1.01 is nearly ready for release. It just needs the final pass for bugs. Project coordinator John Cordell sent us a note and a couple of screenshots inviting anyone who would like to participate in the testing to apply. If you'd...

When Kris looks at it. And fixes it.

This probably can't be considered a fighter, but like I said to Kris earlier this is the greatest ship from any sci-fi series ever. Anyone recognise it?

With the downloadable Playguide in hand, the commands for Super Wing Commander have been updated in the Game Controls section. We often get requests for a list of controls on the forums, so now you know where to look! Even the more obscure ports such as Wing Commander CD32 is there in case your...

The last part of our gallery is online and features a sort of good vs. evil theme. Random costumed women vs Halman anyway. There was a point to it all though as we were attempting to recreate a scene from a sketch we had drawn. The sketch features a catgirl casting an angry glance at Halman...

We've previously mentioned some other CIC locations, but CIC Paris seems to be in the best financial shape. They've got some pretty nice offices and ATMs. If you ever encounter a cash deposit box with our name on it, feel free to insert large amounts of money. If there isn't one near you, you...
