Ya know... I been thinking long and hard about this. I can't for the life of me understand why with today's technology Wing Commander 1-Prophecy have not been reformatted and upgraded for modern PCs and counsels? I'm talking PS3 & XBOX360. Let me explain Wing Commander III-Wing Commander Prophecy where all shot on film like movies. With Blu Ray specifically a Wing Commander Legacy Collection could easily be released with updated HD graphics for the inflight game sequences for all titles. Not to mention the video for Wing Commander III, IV and Prophecy would look absolutely stunning remastered for Blu Ray. I thought about how Wing Commander I & II could also get the HD treatment without really altering either of the games much. Maybe have voice actors come in and record if the voice acting tracks were not available anymore? Considering Wing Commander had voice acting done for both the Sega CD release & Super Wing Commander, porting the classic games over to modern video game counsels could probably be completed rather easily and within a limited budget. I love that GOG is currently releasing the classics for play on modern PCs. However, EA is really missing out on the Wing Commander cash cow. Updating the games for modern systems would seem like a no brainer! Especially if a new game is indeed in the works. I've always been baffled with at least from my perspective the 3D0 version of Wing Commander III is the best way to enjoy the title. 3D0 did not have the benefit of DVD technology. Yet the game still holds up very well and when I feel like playing Wing Commander III even considering what a pain it is to have to reconnect 3D0 that is the option I always go for. Once again I am brought back to how Wing Commander III set the standard for interactive movie titles and and shattered sales records. If the marketing team over at EA really stopped and thought this through HD versions of the games could most definitely make them a fortune. The DVD version of Wing Commander IV really needs to see the light of day again. A PS3 release could be simply beautiful finally doing justice to the game. As a fan I look at the $5.99 GOG releases and smile but I just feel like Wing Commander is a better franchise that deserves to be respected in the modern day. Thoughts?
