Well, Playstation features the Gran Turismo series - so I can't completely bash it. I'm a sucker for that franchise. Plus, none of my Playstations has ever broken or failed.

In single player, I completely agree with you - although I understand why it was thought to be necessary in the game you mention. Flying a TIE Fighter with no shields would certainly have the potential of being frustrating for a player, especially when combatting well protected Alliance craft...

That's true - do we think they can co-exist? The tan uniforms in WC1 seem to be more in the traditions of 'duty' uniforms, while the dress uniforms in WC2 are certainly a step up. This makes sense, also, considering that even during medal ceremonies in WC1, you're still on the ship surrounded...

Perhaps incorrectly, I just assumed that everyone still had those dress uniforms from WC1 and WC2 - it's just that as the war continued dragging on, I could see less emphasis being placed on them. It's not unlike what's happened in the army today. There's far less emphasis on drill and...

Especially since, I imagine, had you chosen to train on the Tomcat, when the aircraft was retired you probably would have been reclassed to operate the Super Hornet - you would have gotten the chance to be around both! Ahh well. It's not like there's anything special about mach 2.4+, right...

Really? Why is this even necessary? A careful read reveals that my suggestions are subtly different than yours. :)

This is one of the elements that will make or break the next WC game. I think it is fair to say that a good, well written multi player co-op will be essential. In my mind, you incorporate the traditional elements of WC that made it so great - story, gameplay, interactive engagement - and combine...

I think this is correct and, really, the big flaw in the scene. Please don't remind me. It makes me feel...old. When the Tomcat was retired, I felt like I was losing a hero or something. It wasn't a great day. I felt similar when the AiM-54 was pulled from service many years before...

Goose died because he was a dumbass A flat spin is a special circumstance which can, in some cases, increase the risk of impacting the canopy. In a flat spin in the Tomcat, the pilot does, as Maverick is depicted, end up pinned forward. As a result, it is up to the RIO to ensure the canopy is...

Wing Commander settings notwithstanding, what's your current overall impression of the game as it stands from 'the factory', as we say? :)

Spoilers...haha Goose dies!

That avatar is...awesome.

heh - I don't actually think they did. I was just playing off the title and being an idiot for the fun of it. I have pretty crappy humor, especially when it's experienced in 5.1 Digital Forum.

You've obviously never watched "Space: Above and Beyond." The chigs absolutely always approach exactly from... you guessed it! Above and beyond! :rolleyes:

That's our Frosty, folks! :)

One thing's for certain - this here beautiful Kilrathi deserve more than some old Pancake!

Probably not the right place to ask, but I'd be interested in seeing b4 and after shots of the house, Chris! Looking at moving in the next few months and always open for inspiration...

Heh, I think about that every time I see a question on the forum. I could open my mouth, but really, what could I add that the LOAF could not? :D

I like the sound of that setup, Frosty. Looks really attractive as well. In the end, I'm kind of a snob when it comes to appearence - I don't care how fast it makes you, if it 'don't look right, it ain't.' Good choice! As for the 24 Hours, it was definitely a good race this year. Not as good...

Really?
