Blast From the Past, Part 4 Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Continuing the Wing Commander 4 trend, today we have the old PC Gamer article from May 1996. The pictures printed in the magazine itself are rather dark, so the scan didn't come out too clearly for that. Otherwise, WC4 is about the highest rated game in the magazine and won the Editor's Choice Award for the month.

Wing Commander IV is an excellent game wrapped in an impressive package, no matter how you approach it. If you liked WCIII, you'll flip for the sequel. - 90%
If you approach Wing Commander 4 from the top or bottom, you can tell it's got a nice sleeve cover around the actual packaging.

So.. when I said, "Boy, it'd be funny if someone photoshopped a Game Boy playing Prophecy into his hands here.." it wasn't actually a request. But Heart of the Tiger decided to meet the challenge.

Not exactly what I pictured in my head. Just so people know, it's not actually that large relative to a human being. Cradling it like a baby is optional.

DragonCon Airfare & Hotel Discounts Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

DragonCon is only five months away now, and many of the official functions of the DC website are coming together. Of particular note are airfare and hotel rates for DC attendees. Detailed travel information can be found here. Delta's main hub is in Atlanta so it is the official carrier. DC guests receive 10% off fares, plus an additional 5% if you book early. Hotel information in available here. Send us an email if you're coordinating hotel rooms with us.
For those of you planning on spending some time in Atlanta sight-seeing, we strongly encourage you to get a map of the city prior to arriving. Atlanta is well-known for its confusing layout, and its fondness for naming streets either "Peachtree" or "Piedmont." :)
Yeah, I can personally vouch for that. Every other street, building and lamp post was named Peachtree Something-or-other when we were there.
