    Privateer nostalgia...

    Hm, that's odd...I'd always figured that Priv2 was Win9x-native. I got the "Deluxe" edition (with the fold-out poster and Chirichan Pirate patch), which apparently is already patched to run in Win95. And you've gotta run it on an old system (think P120-P166), or else it has the same...

    I thought that the WCATV series was more elemental (think The Iron Giant) than Japanimation.

    Question about final Prophecy Mission

    Starlancer's not a horrible game, but it definitely plays different than the Wing Commander games; after all, it *is* called Starlancer, not Wing Commander 6 (regardless of the fact the the Roberts-es worked on it).

It just seemed that sometimes...

    Privateer nostalgia...

    Yeah, sometimes the accents were pretty heavy, or the audio was too muddy to properly understand some of the conversations. The whole game did seem a bit easy, though, once you learned the AI patterns (not nearly as bad as Armada, but still pretty predictable). I really liked the game, and...

    Privateer 2 Talon

    If I remember correctly, there was a Privateer-Wing Commander-Privateer2 tie-in fan fiction written several years ago; it concerned a cryo-frozen Blair returning to the late 28th century to battle a massive Steltek invasion force in the Tri-System. Of course, depending on who you ask, the...

    Dragon*Con: The "down and dirty"

    If one were to come, and wanted to make one's own flight suit (like the bitchin' ones from the photos last year), how would one go about it?
