Wing Commander™ 1+2

Great games. The peak of Chris Roberts. It's such a shame he wound up being nothing but a scam artist in Star Citizen. A decade and half a BILLION DOLLARS wasted for a tech demo... But Wing Commander games are still good fun.

Revisiting the first space game of my childhood that I played on a 386. But I found Gog's DosBox WC1 nearly unplayable due to input issues - mouse input in particular can get "stuck" e.g. always moving pointer to the top. Someone did manage to play it through on YouTube and I fast forwarded through that to get the gist of the storyline. On to revisiting WC2...

This is one of the most entertaining titles I ever played back then. I remembered when I had it long time ago. It came together in a package with Sound Blaster 16. Naturaly the game had very good music and sfx of its time. Great to see this game here. I'm sure GOG has made the installation so much easier. It was really difficult to get it going back then, the game kept crashing without memory optimizer on my 486 DX2 machine. Good job GOG!

Wing Commander is one of the best series of all time. I've waited so long for GOG to get this. Along with Ultima, Wing Commander represents the golden age of Origin, Richard Garriot and Chris Roberts and one of the finest periods in gaming history.

One of the most overrated franchises out there Terrible controls and no in game explanation of the controls Do yourselves a favour and just get a copy of Freelancer and install the HD mod.
