Say... I'd say Priv and RF's intro are pretty cool.. althought the battle sequence of one Tarsus equipped only with a single laser could take out three Talons that easily.

Wc4's intro would be branched after a few minutes...

hmm... Priv2 rather sucks... especially without subtitles.

Wing Commander IV best intro Film

Certainly WC4. I loved the filmmaking style. It almost seemed like you were watching a movie. I know that it was the first game to be done in that fasion and it showed! :) I thought it was very well done. I have seen the movie over thirty times and really enjoy it every time I watch it. Well done Roberts!

Oh...I thought it was the Tigers Claw...sheesh (do they mention the name of it during that sequence in the WC3 movie?)
hmm I never played Wing Commander 2: Vengence of the Kilrathy so I must got confused.

Yes... ("the wreckage of the Concordia's been located") and they also specifically say that it's *not* the Tiger's Claw. :) ("First the Tiger's Claw and *now this*." :)

Either that, or he's popular enough to be recognizable, and REALLY needs the work. Oddly enough, he wasn't in Emperor: Battle for Dune.
The only steady jobs that I can remember him in were in the Indiana Jones movies (and its been a while since the last of those was released - keep them fingers crossed for 4!) and Sliders.
And for those who somehow didn't know, he's also in The Lord of the Rings.

Now don't forget, he was also in THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING. Cross your fingers, but I am pretty sure he'll be in the next two. :)

But I don't feel like spending almost $200 for a copy. Maybe I can find a cheaper copy elsewhere. I'm in no hurry to get KS other than to add it to my collection.

The best way to get a cheap copy of KS is to look long and hard for it, esp on the internet. Don't expect one to just drop in your lap.
