Description
You may be the hottest pilot in the fleet, but this will cool your jets! In Wing Commander you blast your way through the Vega Campaign. You’d better be as good as your reputation because the stakes are too high to play it safe. Just when you think that the action can’t get any more intense, or the opposition any stiffer, you’ll plunge into Wing Commander II. Disgraced and unjustly court-martialed, you have to prove yourself once again and earn the respect of the Confederation High Command. Of course, there is also the little matter of preventing the destruction of the Terran home-worlds.

The game that started it all

This game is the one fore me. I was to young fore the first 1 and started withe game nr2. This game was ground breaking and changed my world back then. The story line is realy good fore the time period. Its one of only a handful of games i stil play. In my opinion nr 4 was the best of the series but if you havent playde this game before do it. But keep in mind that the game is 24 years old and this game is closer in age to pong than the modern games.

Memories . . .

I remeber going to the 1990 Computer Expo with my father and uncle. Wing Commander 1 was announced game of the year. The following year Wing Commander 2 claimed it. To this day no other game has had such success without close contenders. This is definitely one for the collection.

Best in its class

I remember playing WC2 back when I was about 6 think. I didnt play WC1 until my teenage years . But for the longest time I never knew how to eject. I tried "E" i tried typing "Eject". When I found out how I was ejecting all the time just to ram my ship into another. This is a must buy for any gamer.

Genre-Defining

From the dialogue to the gameplay, this game started more trends than you might imagine. It's probably been decades since I played it last, but it still holds the same appeal. They did more than create a space simulator here; they created an entire world to give meaning to your missions. Each game is better than the last, but they all stay true to the original. Games have changed a lot over the years, so if you're in the mood for something sexy and intense, then stick with the newest games. But if you want to play a truly entertaining game and want to remember what the early days of computer gaming were like, then look no further. DEATH TO THE KILRATHI!
