Amazing WC Prophecy Video Archive Now Online! (November 5, 2023)

[ChrisReid]

The phenomenal expansion of the CIC Holovid video archive continues! Having recently vastly expanded what was available for Privateer 2, LOAF and AD have moved on to Wing Commander Prophecy. Their complete catalog of the game's cutscenes includes every clip in high quality, complete with transcripts, storyboards, alternate languages, variations and branching choices depicted. The game's ICIS mission briefings have also been digitized and transcribed, and THOUSANDS of in-flight audio communication clips have been added. This even applies to the 3Dfx Test and playable demo. Plus, a fun variety of behind-the-scenes and bonus videos are available as well. You don't want to miss it!





Here's LOAF with more detail:

• A page for every cutscene in Wing Commander Prophecy! Each page embeds the cutscene in question and collects all sorts of bonus materials:
  • The alternate, higher quality DVD footage
    • The German dub
    • A game-accurate transcript
    • The shooting schedule and set list for each scene
    • Two different versions of the script (the initial draft from December 1996 and the shooting script)
    • Storyboards where available along with other media (script segments from the EPK, the GBA intro, etc.)
• Every ICIS briefing's audio embedded and available for download.
• Every single communications message, over 4,000 in total! Organized by series and character. These include both the unique 96x96 in-flight flicks (ie, Anderson debriefing you or Dekker boarding a space station) and the 'loops' which are presented as audio files alongside their silent videos. Every comm is embedded or can be downloaded!
• The Privateer 2 comms have been brought up to parity; they will now load properly on your phone and each has a download link. Find them here.
• A new, comprehensive collection of Behind the Scenes material that includes everything from German TV specials to Polish video reviews to the Cobalt 60 Wing Commander Prophecy music video! Prophecy didn't get as much attention in the media as WC3 or WC4 but we're dedicated to adding anything we can find.
• ALL of the above for BOTH the 3Dfx Test and the longer unique demo! Who could forget the original Prophecy redshirts, Unicorn and Limbo?!
