    Announcing a Wonderful Wingnut Wedding (August 4, 2013)

    Huzzah and Mazel Tov! I hope to not hear from Bandit LOAF for a week. Must be tough to find time to get married working for a software company. Did anyone from Ben's work attend the wedding?

    New crowdfunding record incoming?

    To raise $32 million, they will have to! As great as the concept and technology look, $775 is more than my budget for my Star Citizen computer. It's a great idea for a portable computer, though. Under DosBox for Linux, it should be able to run all the Wing Commander games except Prophecy.

    CORRECTION: LOAF to speak at synDCon AND Dragon*Con!

    POSSIBLE CORRECTION TO THE NEWS FLASH TO THE CORRECTION TO THE CORRECTION: Except at Gamescon, where he may or may not speak in German. Alright, I admit I am getting a bit silly, but the good news is that LOAF will be making appearances at 4 different gaming venues (Dragon*Con, synDCon...

    CORRECTION: LOAF to speak at synDCon AND Dragon*Con!

    Well THAT explains why I couldn't find any information about you on the Dragon*Con website. I can see that SynDCon is held in Washington D.C., but their website is down at the moment. Is any further information available (and can a moderator PLEASE change the thread title)?

    CORRECTION: LOAF to speak at synDCon AND Dragon*Con!

    According to Sandi Gardner, VP of Marketing for Cloud Imperium Games, our very own Bandit LOAF (Ben Lesnick) has been invited to speak at Dragon*Con next month. I can't make it (24/7 stand-by at work makes it hard to take trips) but I was wondering if anyone else planned on going?

    Four Weeks Until the Birthday Party! (July 13, 2013)

    7 character URL. Because 10 characters was too long? :rolleyes: I might be in Texas that weekend (not Austin, unfortunately) but I'll bring my tablet to join in the festivities. I'm looking forward to it, last years was great!

    Star Citizen computer question

    I'm the guy you are talking about. I've been using the same PC for 9 years. Since the last Wing Commander game was Prophecy in 1998, I've never needed more. But I will have to build a new system specifically to run Star Citizen, and will have to do it for around $700 US.

    How Warm's Your Cockpit Seat? (June 16, 2013)

    After over 19 years of playing Privateer, I realized I had never flown the Orion! After amassing about 400,000 credits trading, I did a speed run through the original campaign. I'm currently going through Righteous Fire with the Orion. That thing is a tank! I might have to retry the original...

    Less Than Two Months Until the Big Birthday Bash (June 15, 2013)

    Alright! Who 'shopped Roman Lynch into a Pleasure planet bar? Looking forward to the birthday party! With most of the attention being taken up with The Roberts' new game, it should be a more "intimate" affair this year. I hope LOAF can break away from his new job to make it! If he can't...

    Goodbye, Tony Stockton (May 8, 2013)

    Sad. The PAD and booth system were my favorite part of the game. When tablets first came out I was all "Holy crud, it's the PADs from Privateer2!"

    Gearbox buys Homeworld IP

    This is wonderful news! Gearbox has a great reputation of reviving old franchises from the brink of developer bankruptcy. Look at what they managed to do with Duke Nukem Forev... Never mind. Bad example. Anyway, I hope great spacey things come from the franchise returning to the hands of an...

    Old Callsigns with a modern touch

    Not to hijack this thread, but I was 22 when Wing Commander came out. Spent $1000 upgrading my computer to a 486-33. Egads. Who IS the oldest guy on this board? I now return you to your regular thread topic...

    LucasArts is no more

    I have to agree with you there, LOAF: X-Wing had lots of missions, but you had to beat them in order to progress through the game. Wing Commander had STORY! that actually changed depending on how you did and what choices you made. Branching storyline for the win!

    RIP Roger Ebert (1942-2013) (April 4, 2013)

    I just figured you or Chris would ban me if I cut loose too harshly. I miss Gene Siskel.
