I'm not really much of an online gamer for several reasons (getting involved with communities make me feel obligated to play, I'm not competitive at all so PvP stuff makes me cringe) so all I'm really hoping for is a deep and fully fleshed out single player experience. Given what we've heard so...

I'm probably remembering wrong but I thought his original concept was called "Squadron" then it became "Wingleader" and finally "Wing Commander."

I'm really going to need a new computer, haha.

It may not be an official part of the Wing Commander universe but it's designed to be damn near close enough. I'm probably one of the only people more excited about Squadron 42 than the online stuff.

I just finished the Fort Crockett mission yesterday and I have to respectfully disagree. I thought the fact that you could control your ship, that you had to just sit there and watch, that there was nothing you could do, was much more powerful than if it were presented in a cut-scene. I felt...

Ahh yeah. Space Quest is my favorite adventure game series, and also my first, so color me excited. The genre has really been making a comeback lately.

Yeah, there are loads of "but thou must" moments in Wing Commander 2. I used to think Kurosawa 2 was scripted in my younger days until I finally got past it. I admit before I knew it was impossible I fought my ass off trying to save the Behemoth.

Well worth the wait. Amazing. Incredible. I don't know how many adjectives I could use to describe what a phenomenal job you guys have done. This is better than most professional work out there. Thank you for keeping my favorite video game franchise alive. Between this and Standoff, the Wing...

Hah, I remember this. I also feel your pain Doug. I remember drawing little Kilrathi fighters all over my tablets in elementary school when I should have been paying attention.

I played the crap out of the Sega Genesis version back in the day (highly recommended due to updated graphics). It's a fantastic game. It let me live out my Star Trek captain fantasies. I never played it on PC and I might look into this. It's about time I bought something on GOG that wasn't Wing...

I always wanted to join the US Navy but a battle with severe Ulcerative Colitis but a stop to that.

A thousand times this. I'd love some kind of adventure game elements while you're on the carrier or wherever, taking the player choices seen in III and IV a step further and giving them a real impact on the game. This way we can still have branching missions/story without forcing the player to...

The Escapist is, and always will be, amateur hour in the video game journalism scene. They're gamer hipsters who usually have no idea what they're talking about because they're more concerned about looking cool by dropping references to forgotten titles like Hyperspeed. Who the hell made that...

I hover around 5000 for WC1 and adjust it as I need to. I don't trust AUTO either.

As much as I've never been a fan of Apple products, Steve Jobs has been a visionary and a driving force in the tech industry for a decade before I was even born. His loss is really tragic.

I liked the new Battlestar through the first two seasons then things just started getting outrageous. I watched it the whole way through anyway mostly to make fun of it with my girlfriend. The ending was one of the stupidest and least satisfying things I've ever seen but I guess in their defense...

I remember being pretty amazed by the extra video included in the Playstation version especially because I had no idea it was there at the time. I bought it during a period long before dosbox when I just couldn't get WC3 running anymore. I get a kick out of the TCN stuff. I have to agree I...

Yeah, I very much agree that there are a lot of shades of Gundam in the movie. The entire Pilgrim war summary we got was basically the same as Gundam's One Year War and Blair's abilities are far more similar to Newtypes than to a Jedi (though they're still a lot different and not as...

Awesome, I can't wait to see it completed.

I liked the beaten up look of everything too. It was a carrier on the frontlines with little to no support. Everything was half-fixed and jury rigged as you'd expect. I didn't really like the design of the fighters themselves which seems to be a pretty common complaint but they didn't bother me...
