Hard To Pick Just One (March 3, 2007)

[ChrisReid]

Old our poll was getting a little old, so Delance suggested a new one. This time we ask which new feature in Wing Commander Arena has you the most excited. The game will the be the very first on XBox Live Arcade to allow sixteen players to battle it out together online, and Wing Commander fans will be doing so in classic ships like the Arrow, Rapier, Broadsword, Darket, Dralthi and Paktahn. Hands-on previews and advance impressions so far have been very positive about all the different modes, and the massive capship versus capship battle has generated considerable buzz. Everything about Arena has been coated in extensive and well-researched Wing Commander lore, and fans will even be able to win medals and awards as achievements. No price has been announced, but the typical Live Arcade game goes for $5-15. There's a lot to be excited about, but you can only pick one thing today!

The last poll asked which Wing Commander simulator was the best. The TCS Midway's egg-shaped pod took the top spot with almost a third of the vote. The Tiger's Claw's TrainSim came in second. I'm surprised more people didn't vote for the TrainSim, but that's how it goes.

Just the fact that the damn thing is being made is more than enough to get me excited, but I'm after the battlecruiser combat. That's one thing that I was hoping would have been included for the space battles for Star Wars Battlefront II, but that's just limited to starfighters.

Seriously, if I could pull off stuff like in the battles from the movie (mainly the broadside attack), I would be the happiest man alive.
