I know the entries unlock as you go along :p But when I used to play the game years ago (about a decade ago actually) I don't think every character I met got a bio entry (like Hassan, Rhinehart and IIRC maybe Vonx and Uncle Kashumai) How did Wing Commander CIC "extract this info by force"?

I'm revisiting Privateer 2. In the articles section of this site, there's a full listing of all the database entries including some I've never seen in the actual game such as Hassan, CIS and the Kindred. Does my copy have a glitch?

The mechanics were all non-commissoned officers in the Confederation Navy. The manual for Prophecy says that Rachel is a Master Chief Petty Officer, Pliers would most likely have been that rank as well (given his age) and Sparks was a Chief Petty Officer (it said so in the dialogue). Chief...

Are there any games nowadays that use a large amount of live action footage with actors? I don't really keep with games today, all I know that animated cutscenes like the GTA franchise uses seem to be popular.

I disagree, I found the chatter from the Prophecy wingmen annoying. Personally I dislike it when games (or films, TV shows whatever) decide to stop taking themselves seriously and go the opposite route and just play everything for cheap, dumb laughs. Best example - the Command & Conquer/Red...

"I can take you with one gun tied behind" in a thick country accent or when responding to a call for assistance, the happily yelled "This sounds like a job for....ME!" I found most of the voices of these characters rather daft and irritating, especially the one who talked like Gomer Pyle...

Well if you put it that way, then there's no way I could change it for the better. But yes, as you mention one of the problems with the film is the bad editing/structuring. I would definetely change the final scene, which was a very weak way to end a film (they all shake hands and Angel is...

Also does anyone know where I can see an actual list of who voiced who in that game? I want to know so I can update its IMDB page.

Thank you all for your very helpful answers. I wanted to know because I was going to submit this information to a site called Cinemorgue (a site that lists the screen-deaths of actors and actresses), but since it's not explicit that Suchet dies in this film (and deleted scenes don't quite count...

Quick question, maybe a stupid one, does Captain Sansky (David Suchet) die or does he just go to the sick bay? Haven't seen the film for a long time, and I always felt his exit from the film was a bit ambiguous, we just see him unconscious with a bump on the head. Also did it happen during a...

I am impressed at how quickly this thread has grown. Glen Robbins as Hunter? The mother's dopey fiance from Australian sitcom Kath & Kim? Hilarious!! Although he actually does look a lot like Hunter in WC1 if a bit too old (Hunter is only 27). I first time I ever saw Malcolm McDowell was...

Well, I'm going to stop slagging off the movie now. I like some of Maj. Striker's choices. I have to admit now John Rhys-Davies would be a more likely choice since he's closer in age to Paladin, it's just that Paladin in WC2 in a dead ringer for Connery, and if I had Anthony Hopkins as Tolwyn...

Well Malcolm McDowell can still do Tolwyn, but a lot of the other actors would have to go if we're talking about a complete revision of the WC story. And I refuse to acknowledge the 1999 film, Tcheky Karyo as Paladin gave the only half-decent performance and he wasn't even Scottish, Jurgen...

Lets pretend that there is to be a proper, no expense spared Hollywood film adaptation of the Wing Commander series where any film star could be cast, unlike the 1999 Wing Commander flop (I can't believe this website considers it part of the official WC Universe). Who would you have to play the...

I've just downloaded the vid from the CIC files page, but in real player there is only sound, no picture. What program should it be played with?
