Mazel Tov! See, Who says video game nerds can't get (wait, what? Inappropriate comment? Oh, ok).

First time my computer speakers have been cranked to max in a long time. I may be the only person who thinks Wing Commander deserved an Oscar nomination. For the music.

I don't do consoles, but I did spot a copy of Wing Commander IV- The Price of Freedom for Sony Playstation in a local used videogame store. Anyone looking for it for their collection? I could grab it for you...

After seeing the news on Reddit, this was the first place I came to offer my well-wishes. And I see BanditLOAF has been browsing here! Get some rest, Ben!

LOAF probably has the only boss that will let an employee take off to buy Wing Commander art!

I always knew Pliers was a miracle worker! Ho-ho-hose 'em down with hot photons!

My nickname for the TCS Midway has always been "Old IronPants". I wonder if Mr Murphy realized the Midway looked like a pair of pants when he designed it.

I'll have to give this patch a shot. The last Windows patch wouldn't show spaceflight (a big part of the game) on my XP machine.

Rumor has it that Eric"Wingman" Peterson voiced the pirate in the opening montage... Unfortunately, Mr. Peterson is not mentioned in the credits by Admiral Terrel.

Lesnick: "Yes, we had actually hoped to do a CitizenCon in October of this year for the anniversary of the game announcement, but it didn't quite work out. We had our livestream and we saw how rabid our fans were and how many of them there were, so we needed a little more time to plan." <--...
