tough call. :D I do wish that Super Wing Commander (the 3DO game) had come to PC. I love that remake.

cool. will check it out. thanks!

I've played 1-3, 5. Skipped 4 because it seemed too much like 3 to me at the time... I can't say that I am fiercly loyal to any particular installment honestly. The film taught me that Chris Roberts may have been somewhat unstable all along and that was perhaps why there are inconsistencies...

Super Wing Commander is quite an interesting version of the game, for sure. The only issue I have with it is that it's tough to hit things with the 3DO gamepad. You can get a 3DO edition of the CH Flightstick Pro, but they are costly. SWC has realtime and pre-rendered graphics that will remind...

Yeah I agree with that. The was a lot more Star Wars buzz back then, and I'm positive that is what made WC a success. It also probably helped that science fiction was almost dominating TV at the time with TNG. It just doesn't happen anymore commercially. X3 is probably the biggest such title...

Most of my friends who were into such games, like I still am, are...

Been playing WC since I got WC1 back in 1991 or 1992 I believe. I think I read about it in an issue of CGW (my fav mag!) and asked a friend, and he said it rocked. So I bought it, beat it a few times. Then I got WC2, WC3, skipped WC4 for whatever reason, got WCP. I also played X-Wing, TIE, XvT...

I'd love to get my hands on one of the dual sided DVD versions. Anyone willing to borrow one out? They are so hard to find and expensive. It's also nearly impossible to tell if the few out there are dual sided. I'll pay for your shipping! I was playing some WC4 on my TV today (playing WC3 and 4...

Look up Nexus. http://www.nexusthegame.com/

Well I use a notebook for the game and I've found that the built-in Realtek codec works fine with the game while my Audigy Notebook PC Card does the video skipping. So, all I do is pop out the Audigy PCMCIA card and run it with the crap onboard audio :) Biggest difference between the two is...
