Although I've played all of the Wing Commander games, from WC1 through Prophecy, I've been missing my copies of WC 2: Deluxe Edition and WC 3 for several years now. I'm still not sure what happened to them, although I suspect they were either A) misplaced during a move, or B) "borrowed" without my knowledge by a High School friend who I (now) think had sticky fingers.
Although not being able to find them when I first realized they were missing back in 2001 was annoying, it didn't matter much since, by that time, it was becoming increasingly difficult to run older games on modern operating systems. Now that I can run my older games on DosBox, however, I decided to bite the bullet and order new copies from Starvector.com.
I just received my shipment the other day. I'm extremely happy to have the Deluxe Edition of WC II again, and I'm planning on installing it this evening. However, my shipment didn't include the copy of WC III that I ordered, I think because it was back ordered.
Is anyone familiar with Starvector? If so, does this mean they'll ship a copy of WC III to me if one becomes available? Or should I give up and search somewhere else?
