    MSN On Joystick Significance (March 3, 2008)

    Have any of you guys heard anything about them making an MMORPG based off of Wing Commander? I know it's not exactly what many of us would want, but with the current "MMO Boom" they seem to be making them left and right. I know EA's current big MMO in the making is Warhammer Online (made by...

    MSN On Joystick Significance (March 3, 2008)

    Good find, Chris. I agree that the downfall of the device certainly hurt Wing Commander. Personally, I usually just played on the keyboard but I know I was a minority (way back in the day, at least). Hopefully things can rebound though, who knows. :)

    The Losing Path is Better

    I agree with you that the losing paths are typically more challenging. Personally, I always wished some of the easier missions on the winning lines would have been made a bit more challenging.

    Problem with Installing WC KS

    Hey All, I am trying to Reinstall my very old WC Kilrathi Saga set. It's the old Win95 version (I think) and I was hoping to get it up and running. I read the KS compatability guide stickied here but am running into a problem even before that.... When I attempt to put in the first CD to...

    Best Music

    The WC1 and WC2 themes mentioned are great choices; but some of the Privateer scores certainly come to mind. I remember several of those not merely "being good" but being THE number one mood setter for several parts of the game.

    reasonable predictions for a new WC game

    I suppose I'm an odd ball in that I always have preferred to play Space Combat Sims with my keyboard... I had a joystick back in the day, but I always preferred the keyboard. Personally, I wouldn't care what the control method was just as long as we could actually get a new PC based Wing...

    CIC Radio

    How about a new release? "CIC Staff singing all your opera favorites" Sounds like a winner to me. ;)

    Greetings, Old Friends

    I remember all of those names, great to see they are still around. One name that comes to mind is Methostopholeses (sp?). Didn't I get him in contact with you guys regarding hosting? If you recall, he was the very talented gentleman who did all the 3d renderings of the various WC fighters/ships...

    Greetings, Old Friends

    I forget the exact year, but sometime in the mid to late 90s a large number of us formed a "squad" in hopes of playing WC/Privateer Online together. Since neither of those games were ever made, we eventually disbanded, but we had a great group while it lasted. :) Myself and another fellow...

    Greetings, Old Friends

    Heya Loaf, good to see you guys are hanging strong. The past 8 years or so have consisted of college/masters/marriage/children/work/etc. so busy indeed to say the least! Hopefully as things settle down I can get more active in the community again. Just curious if you or anyone else knows...

    Greetings, Old Friends

    Greetings, If you were active in the community from oh, let's say the mid 90s to 2000 or so, you may remember me (I was heavily involved with the old Killer Bees group, if you recall). Anyways, I just thought I would say hi to any old time friends who may still be around. Things have been...

    Eve Online - What do you think of it?

    Thanks everyone for your thoughts. After your comments and reading up some more on it, the whole "space-sim RPG" concept is probably not for me right now. :)

    Eve Online - What do you think of it?

    Greetings, Please forgive this old Wing Commander fan for possibly bringing up a topic that has been beaten to death. However, I'm curious as to what you WC fans think of Eve Online? Have any of you played it? It sounds essentially like what Privateer Online was suppose to be like. Is the...

    Infoburst Leaves Internet Stone Age (December 29, 2004)

    I really enjoyed infoburst way back when. While I know there aren't any current game makers, producers, executives, etc. to interview, I think it would be worthwhile to start it back up and do interviews of old WC game makers or even just community members. /shrug Just my opinion. :)
