Wing Commander to be Represented at CGE2K3 Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

If you're nowhere near Atlanta this summer to attend the Wing Commander gathering at DragonCon, Wing Commander fans also have the option of visiting the Classic Gaming Expo. Billed as "the world's largest gathering of classic video game alumni ever held with the the most comprehensive collection of classic videogame hardware and software ever assembled," (whew, what a mouthful) this year The Fat Man & Team Fat will be performing live on the second day of the convention. I'm not sure if anyone on our staff will be able to attend, but if there's anyone in the Las Vegas area who can get us some pictures and impressions that'd be great! The CGE will take place on August 9th and 10th at Jackie Gaughan's Plaza Hotel & Casino in LV. You can find more information here.

The Fat Man and Team Fat have been doing videogame soundtracks since the early 1980's when it all began with the original score they composed for Intellivision Thin Ice. The music for titles such as 7th Guest, Loom, and Wing Commander can also be accredited to them. They will be performing LIVE on Sunday at CGE 2002!

Sims Still Sells Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Wing Commander owner EA announced this week that The Sims continues to break sales records. Total franchise sales have now topped 24 million units, 8 million of which are attributed to the original Sims product. They also announced its sixth expansion pack, Superstar, today. For those keeping count, the Command & Conquer franchise originally started by Westwood has more than 20 million units in print and our own Wing Commander more than 10 million. Strike Commander? At half a million, it was EA's all time best selling PC game until Wing Commander 3 hit in 1994.
