That's because I have hit the skill cap for Lurking. Don't usually like taking part in average day-to-day threads, but this magazine article brought back a whole lot of nostalgia for me.
CGR was the acronym for Computer Game Review, aka Computer Game Review and 16-bit Entertainment. It was a fairly popular magazine that was bought out by Ziff Davis and became Computer Gaming World around 1996.
Here's another interesting piece of Fallout 3 trivia:
The character of President John Henry Eden, as voiced by Malcolm McDowell, runs a radio propaganda show where he often spouts various 'inspirational' quotes - one of which is "The price of freedom is eternal vigilance."

If you folks need a composer to write music in the style of Wing Commander, or just a simple reorchestration of themes found in the original games, let me know.

Yes, I play the guitar and more recently, keyboards as well.
I hardly ever browse the forum. Came to this thread because it was listed on the CIC's front page. ;)
I just got some new chords from The Fatman himself, and will be updating the tab a bit later today.
Hope some of you guys have tried it out and enjoyed it. :)
Many thanks, LOAF. :)
I'd love to complete the rest of the song myself, but I'm much too lazy, plus I'm having hell trying to figure out what chords the second guitar is playing in the background.

Any help or contributions would be greatly appreciated.
