Wing Commander 3 in 3CDs?!

Hmmm... all of my versions DOS, KS, and PSx have 4. They must be lying. Fifty lashes with a wet noodle for them. :D
 
Perhaps there was a DVD edition? But even 3 is alot for a DVD.
My Kilrathi Saga copy has only 4 cds also.

Given that WC3 came out when CD-ROM was starting out as a PC format, and DVDs wouldn't be out for like 3-4 years as a movie format, much less a PC one.... nope. :D

I know it sounds crazy, but there are people who admit there have only 3CDs instead of 4. Can anyone confirm this?

Once in a while people sell WC3 on ebay missing a disc. There is no real 3 disc version. Mac, Kilrathi Saga, Playstation.. they're all four discs for WC3.
 
Hey there Karthik, would you like to buy a bridge?

Forget the bridge, Karthik. I've got this planet, if you want it, orbiting a large yellow star... I'll sell it cheap - it's been the nexus point for a few alien invasions, but it's otherwise in mostly good shape. Bit of a fixer-upper though.
 
Aww, drop it, guys -- it's entirely *possible* that a port of WC3 would be done on 3 CDs (especially with larger 72 & 80 minute CDs these days)... it didn't *actually* happen, but it's not a stupid question at all.

(Especially considering that they did WCIV on 4 CDs for the Playstation -- who'd have believed that?)
 
That reminds me of that Kilrathi Saga I bought used, which only had disk 1.

Well, for four bucks...

Even more annoying was the fact that WC3 was installed, but I needed the other disks that I didn't have...
 
Lots of people have seen that... it's the crappy version of WC4 DVD with the movies from the CD version

Is it still possible to aquire the (good quality) dvd version of WC4?

I got lucky a year ago and got a copy of the double sided. However the place I bought it from doesn't seem to sell it anymore. As with everything else, try EBay.
 
Well, nothing at this moment. My computer doesn't have a dvd rom, and it's too crummy to make use of one anyway. But, if I get a better computer, I'll make you an offer you can't refuse. . . unless you just really want to.

I'll buy you a bottle of vodka if you give me the double sided DVD version and the DVD-card that comes along with it!
