Hello All,
I'd first like to say it's really awesome to see Wing Commander alive and well and loved still by so many. It almost brings a tear to the ole eye
Now I need opinions and info from all who are willing to give input. I currently do have the Kirathi Saga version of WC on the CDs and can play a little but the minor changes they made are a bit of a turnoff. I'm looking for as close to the original '90's versions as possible. I do still have my Wing Commander Special promotional Release I played on my old 386 years ago but none of the Secret Missions expansions. Also my Wing 2 was 5.25 floppies and I tossed them, I was so stupid. Now my system's 3.5 drive is possibly dying, if not dead already, and may be chewing disks so...
I'd like to know is if those EA CD Classics versions of WC 1 & 2 are also changed in the sound and possibly graphic department like KS is? Should I try to acquire those versions or keep searching for the extremely rare expansions in their original DOS floppy versions? I am very willing to DOSBox run them if they can survive my floppy drive.
Thank you all and keep up this great work.
