BREAKING NEWS: Wing Commander for the PSP! Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Think you don't need a PSP? Well, think again! GameSpot is reporting that Electronic Arts will release a new compilation of games for the Sony PSP gaming system. "EA Replay" will include fourteen Origin-developed games, including Ultima VII, Wing Commander and The Secret Missions! The pack is scheduled for an October 3rd release, priced at $29.99. In all likelihood, these are ports of the SNES versions of these games -- so get ready to take on some Green Salthi!

GameStop has a listing for the product here, and it includes a very detailed description:

Step back to the dawn of console gaming's golden age with this collection of classics. Play hits from Road Rash, Strike and other legendary series in the first EA compilation of classic handheld games. Go head-to-head with friends in multiplayer mode on select titles. You can even unlock original game art, play in widescreen or normal mode, and save any game at any point. Take fun with you - anytime, anywhere!

  • Ultima: The Black Gate: Solve the mystery that has befallen Britannia before its manifestation is complete!
  • Wing Commander: Lead your elite Tiger's Claw squadron against the forces of the Kilrathi Empire.
  • Wing Commander: Secret Missions: Come face to face with the ultimate threat to mankind, a weapon capable of destroying entire planets!

If you're like me, you'll be shopping for a new game system tomorrow. The core version currently retails for $199 (Amazon) and the standard bundle sells for $250 (Amazon). The fact that Electronic Arts is again interested in making these games available at retail is amazing news for fans... news which is almost more exciting than the fact that we'll be able to play these classics in a whole new way!

New Flight Commander Mod Mixes Universes Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

There's a new Flight Commander campaign in the works. Perfect Plan already has an intro chapter with about five functional missions to build from. These missions and a speech pack are available in testing form now. Parts of the game also build on elements developed for Ranger's Glory, and the RG Christmas Pack is necessary to play. There will be an option later on to play as the opposing side, effectively doubling the size of the game. The story seems to be a bit of a crossover with Sonic Underground from what I can tell. Maybe Kyran's premise below will make more sense to some of you than it did to me.

The Perfect Plan (for Flight Commander) opens with Stephen returning to the Sonic Underground after the receiving a distress call. Upon arriving a wing of Alliance fighters lead by Spite (voiced by Ian) began their attack. After intense fighting Stephen's wing and the Sonic Underground are severely damaged and are forced to Network HQ to rearm. Once there they are informed that their beloved carrier is be handed over for special assignment.
