Well we had some delays getting this kicked off, but our Tetris tournament is now on. Each of our entrants gets three attempts to get the highest score against another entrant, and the highest scorer in each pair moves on to the next round. Round 1 looks like this: KrisV vs Worf ChrisReid vs...

Sure, you've played Prophecy... but did you ever play the demo? If not, you're missing out on a special little chunk of the game. Unlike most game previews, the Prophecy demo contains regular plot missions not available in the retail game. There are four missions that fit nicely in to the game's...

New movie Lord of War has just survived it's first weekend in the US, and it seems that it hasn't done too badly at all. The movie is just one of eight this year to list Chris Roberts as a producer. It managed to take $9,390,144 over the course of the weekend earning the movie the number 3 spot...

Now that our arcade has been open for business for a month, it's time we kicked off a tournament. Since Tetris is the most popular game right now, that's what we're going to start off with. Entry is by a sign-up process and we can accept eight players per tournament so if there are more than...

Bad news for any WC fans hoping to get Aaron Allston to sign copies of Claw Marks at Dragon*Con - he has had to cancel due to a knee injury. Aaron Allston is a famous Star Wars author, but we know him as the author of Wing Commander 1's Claw Marks guide. He also wrote the Privateer TV bible for...

German developers Ascaron Entertainment GmbH have announced that they are producing a new space sim, Darkstar One. There aren't many details at this point, but GBase has managed to grab a first look at the game. The developers hope the game will follow in the footsteps of Wing Commander...

Screw you, that test is great. I have fond memories of playing it. Comparing and competing with the scores.. mocking those unlucky enough not to have a card. It even has Thrakhath sort of.. better days.

By "worked" do you mean it started? Or that it ran quite happily for several missions without crashing? Because the problem with the 3dfx test is that it runs for a little while but later crashes.

I bet the cheapo one doesn't run original xbox games what with most of them needing a hard drive. I guess the ability to run all the games I've already spent loads of money on is worth the extra $100 and then I can use my old xbox at work. I still wonder what the hell they're thinking with...

The Warrior King saga is something that we have touched on before, but a few people recently mentioned that they never heard the story. Since it's such a fun story and people seem to have missed in in the madness of our last birthday, it's worth covering again. LOAF previously wrote a beautiful...

Sorry about the down time earlier today, but we were upgrading to the fancy new version of the forum software. I call it fancy but it doesn't actually look much different from the old stuff. That said, it is still beta software so if you come across any errors or things that don't look quite...

It has been a little while since the last release, but PiArmada has just had a big update. The biggest change is integration with the Vega Strike engine which will allow players to fight battles like in the original Armada. ZOmegaZ has more details. You can download the new release from...

Hush, you. You're not going.

Yay! This year we need to get Halman drunk and have him go around interviewing random people. He can be our new Frosty.

The HTL team have been battling forum problems lately, but they've released a new chapter to cheer everyone up. Here's Raptor with the update: -- Original update published on July 11, 2005

Hey eddie, out of interest which projects are you involved in at NASA?

You can't link directly to files on your hard drive.

The word over at GameSpot is that Wing Commander actors Matthew Lillard (Maniac, WC movie) and John Rhys-Davies (Paladin, WC3 & WC4) have been cast in the Dungeon Siege movie. Dungeon Siege will be directed by Uwe Boll, a man with a long history of making terrible video game movie adaptations...

Yeah, we didn't know the Captain Amelia one or the anime catgirl.

Hehehe, that guy in the wheelchair was great. He spent ages sat in front of a huge truck yelling at the driver for blocking the dropped kerb. I think if a fight kicked off the truck would have won though.
