    Happy 25th Birthday Wing Commander! (September 26, 2015)

    I've still got that somewhere, with Super Mario and Tetris! its probably up in the attic which is my next challenge. I didn't really keep an list of what I took into the NVA, and I notice my ample frame is blocking the shot on the photo, but a few of the things I took in, Wing Commander I +...

    Best Joystick for $40 or less?

    I like the timber of that thrustmaster, I have ordered one for my laptop so I don't have to keep moving the cyborg evo about :)

    Best Joystick for $40 or less?

    Logitech are a decent make. I have (or had) a couple of Cyborg Evos (which they don't make anymore) you won't go far wrong with the Extreme 3D Pro for the price

    Happy 25th Birthday Wing Commander! (September 26, 2015)

    I celebrated....by giving it all away! I feel a strange sense of Melancholy, I am pleased others get the chance to play it and see it, but the gap in the shelf reminds me of what I've done.

    RSI Reaches Whopping $85M Milestone (July 18, 2015)

    I do like that central Gatling cannon, that's a great piece of design! It sounds really meaty as well. I was waiting for the Military Hornet to come on-sale again, but I am severely tempted by that! I love all the little touches, like the helmet faceplate with the little RSI in the bottom...

    RSI Reaches Whopping $85M Milestone (July 18, 2015)

    :/ I actually spent some time reading into this; Derek Smart comes off as sour grapes. Chris has a reputation for excellence in his video games, Derek has a less than stellar reputation for mediocrity, big on concept but failing to deliver, the old green eyed monster rears its head. What would...

    Elite: Dangerous

    I wanted to get it, I played the heck out of Frontier, but the problem is time, time, time. I just don't have enough of it anymore. So I paused with my credit card half way to the buy button and then put it away :( when did I get old?? I am hanging on for Star Citizen, if I've only time for...

    It doesn't actually have a date on it, it is "Load 134" (issue 134). I picked it up the day I posted (27th Oct), so presumably its the November Issue.

    Greetings Pilots, There is a feature on Origin in this Months Retro Gamer UK magazine. I could scan it in here at the office, but I don't want to get me, or the site or the guys in trouble.

    FTL: Faster than light

    You used to be able to farm the Rebel fleet chasing you if you had a sufficiently strong ship, the Rebel Elite ship would drop a single unit of fuel so you could farm indefinitely. The Advanced Edition addressed this by making it so the Rebel cruisers in the background would start to fire at you...

    hobbes and his character arch

    To be honest, on the first playthrough of WCIII on the PC, I'd assumed that Hobbes couldn't face the destruction of Kilrah and had gone rogue to prevent that; he'd allied himself with humanity and they were going to destroy his homeworld! he had to do something! It was only later I found out...
