Description
Professionally scripted and filmed in Hollywood, ORIGIN's multi-million dollar production combines the entertainment of film-making with the interactivity of computer gaming. The result is far more than an action packed and spectacular spaceflight experience. Become immersed in a futuristic adventure that combines Hollywood's movie making expertise with the adrenaline-pumping game play of a space combat simulation. You are the star, your actions will determine the eventual outcome of the Terran Confederation. Adrenaline, romance, humor, danger - Wing Commander III has all this and more. This sequel completes the turbulent chronicles of the Terran-Kilrathi war. The final showdown is near and only you can write the ending.

  • Cinematic atmosphere - over 3 hours of live-action video, brilliant orchestral score, plus dozens of hours of absorbing gameplay
  • Non-linear story with over fifty intense and challenging scenarios
  • Pilot five distinct fighters, armed with fully configurable weaponry that lets you adapt to best fulfill the mission objectives

A great experience for its time

This game doesn't feel like something from 1994, this was definitely ahead of its time. The graphics are stellar and the controls feel right. The plot will keep you entertained, and it needs quite a bit of manual reading to get used to the controls and gameplay. Although the missions get a bit repetitive after a while, the combat is always fun and rewarding. You'll like this if you're a fan of spaceships and science fiction drama.

Buggy game, couldn't complete

I love this game and it was fun playing around 10 first missions, however some of the later (escort) missions are bugged and do not allow you to complete properly, i've tried ejecting but that leads to the losing story line.

milestone of gaming history

Wing Commander III was certainly not the most innovative game, nor a revolution in terms of gameplay. It was however a graphical as well as atmospheric milestone which contributed undeniably to the importance of sci-fi-games in game history. There is one thing about WC3 that I remember passionately: it was one of the first big games that required 8 MB Ram - which was not quite common to have in 1995. So for myself as well as a lot of other players that I knew in the very beginning it remained kind of "dream" to play this game: "Man, I need 8 MB of Ram to finally being able to play WC3". Some time later I finally had to computer to play it accordingly - and I certainly must have played it about 3 times or so. My favorite actor was John-Rhys Davies who gave the game and the atmosphere a very specific and unmistakable note. Noteworthy is furthermore George Oldziey who composed the great theme to this masterpiece. And finally, when mentioning WC3 and WC4 I like to remember Jason Bernard alias Captain Eisen. Unfortunately he died in 1996, a short time after WC4. His memory lives on with these games.
