Two Weeks Until Party Time! Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Time flies when you're going crazy trying to get ready. We're now just fourteen days from the CIC's Fifth Birthday. This time I'm happy to report that a number of the community's fan projects and groups will be joining us in the celebration. The type of participation varies from group to group, but a handful of organizations are working now to put together something special to also release on August 10 with us. Once again, the event details.

Sunday evening, August 10, 2003 or Monday morning, August 11, 2003 depending on your time zone. At around 7:00 pm US Eastern (4:00 pm US Pacific, 11:00 pm GMT or 7:00 to 9:00 am Australian) we will all be formally getting together online at our new IRC server (irc.wcnews.com) online in #Wingnut.
Coming to the party has never been easier! Simply download mirc or click on our Java Client here. Feel free to stop by any time beforehand to get used to the environment. If you've never been to a CIC online Birthday Party before, we have the logs up for a few past events at the bottom of this page. We will be putting the finishing touches on some special CIC projects and giving away cool prizes throughout the night.

One Step Closer to Canadian Prophecy Advance Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

K1nG Gr4H4m has noticed that the Canadian Future Shop has begun listing Prophecy Advance here. This is one of the first listings of the game at a Canadian retailers, so perhaps there's hope for them yet. They list it as out of stock, but that was what was happening at American retailers prior to its launch when release dates were missed. At $34.99 Canadian it's a bit pricier than most places in the US, but it'll be great for the game if it finally hits store shelves. cff reports that the game has landed in Austria finally. You can discuss these developments at Crius here. If you look closely, there's a dolby surround and 3dfx logo on there that's not present on the American or European boxes. The original PC version had those logos off the front flap on the side.

New Poll, Old Results Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Many of you have already noticed we've switched the polls. We've got a fun one this time that asks which unconventional weapon is your favorite. This is a broad category that picks out a few of the more exotic weapons in the Wing Commander universe. I vote Nuke'em. You've gotta love a bomb that transports you to the future to avoid the massive destruction it creates in real time. Our old polls are available here. I believe our previously determined lack of GBAs affected these results quite a bit. Still haven't played Prophecy Advance? Stop by the Birthday Party.
