We've finished a long-awaited addition to the WCPedia: a complete collection of screenshots showing all 233 Privateer 2: The Darkening News Bulletins! We've also included game-extracted text, scans from the official guide and new info and nav boxes to make exploring them much easier. Privateer 2...

In late 1994, PC Games magazine commissioned famed UK comic artist Simon Bisley to create six covers for their magazine. The February 1995 issue featured Wing Commander III in honor of the magazine's review of the game. We've taken a look at the issue itself to get a closer look! Wing...

No surprise this week: everyone in the club still loves Contact (and greatly misses a world that would've allowed such a story to be believable). This time around we decided to choose another war movie. We watched a LOT of war movies early on because they were things Chris Roberts or others...

HANDSOME!

This is the hippo/Behemoth discourse I needed!

There's no denying that Casablanca is an all time classic film! It's timeless, snappy and clever with some of the greatest performances ever put to film. It's also unfortunately more timely than ever today in a world that's once again figuring out how to fight fascists. The Wing Commander...

That's one I've never read, but I guess I pretty much have to now! Thank you!

Wonderful! Could you share the extracted subtitles so we can get them added to future enhancement packs?

There was indeed a Wing Commander trading card game! It was released in 1995 after Wing Commander III was a huge hit and games like Magic were really popular. Sadly it never got an expansion, but it's pretty fun and there's lots of great material in the cards...

Here's a fun discovery: a game preservation group has posted a prototype copy of Wing Commander Prophecy on the Internet Archive! It includes all three discs complete with high resolution scans. They have a great writeup of what's included in the readme with details which you can find below...

Eddie Rickenharp is mini-mono artist who has attained megastar status and is best known for repopularizing his genre of music. In 2669, Rickenharp agreed to perform for Confederation forces on Bistango X in a spectacular concert amidst the planet's ancient art treasures. The Kilrathi launched a...

We recently posted a guide to where to find all of the 'named' Kilrathi aces across the first three Wing Commander games. Once it was published I was immediately inspired to expand the guide to include all of the 'Drakhai' pilots that appear in the first two games. Drakhai are the Kilrathi...

It looks like No Man Sky's free capital ship designing expansion is a hit! Last month we shared some shots of corvettes created by Shaggy and now he has another shot that shows off the interior of his Venture: Meanwhile, a BlueSky user named Redalgo has been recreating an entire fleet of...

This is the first in a series of irregular updates covering the musical artists of the 27th and 28th centuries. Wing Commander has surprisingly detailed backstories for several different groups despite the fact that we never actually got to hear any of their music! In each update we'll first...

The research for one of our recent posts required that we determine what starbases appeared in Wing Commander Prophecy's simulator. Just one problem: there's no guide to the simulator missions online! We decided to create our own and have added a super detailed page for all ten missions to the...

Ah that's rad, I'll check it out!

I thought it would be fun to take a look at Wing Commander III's magnificent Warbirds 2669 poster with some 'behind the screens' notes where they came to me. Do you have fond memories of Warbirds, or anything else fun to note with the pages? Let us known on the forums! Warbirds is Wing...

The Wing Commander movie club has nothing to fear but Sphere itself! The general consensus is that while there's some material of interest in Sphere it doesn't really come together in the end… and it spends a lot of time not quite getting there! In the week before the screening, a lot of people...

Excellent find! And you end up getting your wish quicker than you expected.

We have terrible news to share today: veteran actor Tchéky Karyo passed away on Friday from cancer at age 72. Karyo was an extremely talented veteran Turkish and French actor who was known for crossing between roles in French cinema and Hollywood. Americans will know him in La Femme Nikita...
