Got hooked on Wing Commander in '96 after buying WC3. After I completed that WC4 came out and I bought it. When Prophecy came I wanted to buy that, but my computer was too slow... so I bought better one, and now I spend at least two hours in day blowing up bugs.

I got hooked on the WC series back when a friend lent me a copy of Privateer. Since then, I was hooked. To me, this entire universe was like discovering a whole new space war world (like Star Trek or Star Wars). I'm also an avid roleplaying fan (both paper/dice and video games like Final Fantasy), enjoy computing in almost any form, and also relish Japanese animation. My callsign came from my fav anime series, 3x3 Eyes (see my page for more info).

I've read the books except for the (relatively) new ones and haven't gotten my hands on the Confed Handbook yet. I enjoy hockey, skiing, movies and anything to do with the WC series. I like the CIC because, "I usually
just play the game, the CIC offers so much more in-depth information.
The message board is especially great."

I am an ex-Originite. I was one of the QA playtesters for WCP. After it was released I transferred over to Customer Service where I
answered support e-mail for WCP. Unfortunately, in April of 1998, Origin
had to let go of their entire CS department. I now work for Dell Computer Corp.
I first fell in love with Wing Commander when a sales person at a Walden
Software in Corpus Christi, TX was playing the original Wing Commander on
one of the systems there in the store. I knew this was a great game by just
watching it. I went back the next day and bought it. It was a great joy
for me to actually be involved in the creation of one of these masterpieces
of computer gaming. Someday I should go see if that sales person still
works there and thank him.
If you ever get to meet one of the members of Origin's Quality Assurance
team, they might have an interesting story or two to tell about me. But I
won't back them up on it. ;) |

It all started a few months ago when I grew up in Houthulst (don't even bother to look it up). Since the sunny day I was born (actually, it rained a bit), I did what every normal guy does: throw books at the teacher (sci-fi books), seducing women (their knee is still printed in my underbelly) and walk around a bit. To make a long story short: I'm now a wing commander, alive and well.

Looks like I'm the old timer on the block. I started with WC1 when it first came out and I've been playin' WC games since then. WC is probably the only series that has hooked me so intensely. GOD, I LOVE THIS GAME!

I've been a big WC fan since the first game. It's because of WC that I bought my first PC! It's a great game and saga, and I hope it will be for a long time. I like WC, RPG with friends, and computers. I await WC6,7,8,9,10 and more.

WC1 was the reason he got a PC. No soundcard, no nothing, but it was fun. Actually killed a Dralthi with a porcupine in his favorite craft, the Raptor. Prefers earlier WCs to new laser'n'slay WC parts. Other than that he is trying to get his degree now and enjoying life as much as he can.

I'm a guy who, besides a Wing Commander fan, is also a Star Wars fan. My favorite game it WC III, I think on the 3DO because the movies are of really good quality. But CD #1 is broken into half, so it won't be able to be played it again (played it out more then 20 times).

At one time I owned a couple of PC Gamer’s that had Wing Commander reviews in them… but I gave those to Chris. I thought I owned a demo for a Wing Commander game but I guess I threw it away. Once I found this WC game on DVD at a computer show, but I gave that to Chris also.
|
|
My experience with Wing Commander (WC for short) can be summed up in one word… nonexistent. The only time I have ever seen WC running is when Chris put in a copy of WC4 into the PS2 at work and I had the pleasure of watching the opening movie. I found it very entertaining. I have also seen the WC movie. I also found it to be entertaining, I even started to cry when that black chick crashed and they were sweeping her off the ship while the white guy was trying to run out there are stop them, but Shaggy was holding him back so he couldn’t go outside because it was space and everyone knows that if you walk out into space without a space suit you will explode.

I got started with Wing commander some time after the release of Wing Commander IV. I downloaded the demo, (the 14 MB one) and loved it. However, I still was using a computer without a CD-ROM. I played the WC3 demo, and liked it too. Then, I got a new Pentium II, and got the full WCP demo right after it was released. The next time I went to the mall I got WCP and I have been hooked ever since.

Six years of training in the Royal Danish Air Force as a electronic engineer, three more years as radar technician, extra training into computers and Novell-networks. Worked as an instructor and now as a system administrator at a buisness college. I've tried too much to write it here. Best thing was learning how to load an F16 Fighting Falcon. :-)

I have played Wing Commander since '91. I was 5 years old. I wanted to learn to read because I wanted to know what they said at the bar (true story!). I have played all but Prophecy and Privateer 2, because I will only play WC games by Roberts. Unfortunatly, I lost my WC games in '95 when my dad moved out. Only now (finally having a computer again) am I trying to get back into it. I will buy Saga hopefully in the year. I like Jedi Knight and Star Wars sims. But I will always remain a huge Wing Commander fan. My worst memory of the games was when you find out (close your eyes if you haven't finsihed WC3) Hobbes is a traitor. That pissed me off. Anyways send me a mail if you want.
