Seven Years And Several Sequels Later... Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Wingnuts should remember Chris Anderson from a story last month reviewing the original Privateer. It seems he was PC Zone's inhouse Wingnut. All the better for us given the rest of the British gaming press of the time. His review of Wing Commander Prophecy in the January 1998 issue is positive, at times almost glowing, in its remarks. He does take Prophecy down a few pegs when talking about the actors and their performances, besides Mark Hamill of course, noting they all seem "too cheesy and forced." He won't get much of an argument from here. His major sticking point is that he thinks Privateer 2 was the best Wing Commander game because of its open-world nature. So, he admits, this jaded his impression of Prophecy just a tad. Still, he knows wingnuts will love what they get when the pop in Prophecy and see what that several hundred dollar 3Dfx card can do!

The Kilrathi prophecy warned the Confeds that evil plans were afoot, and it looks as if they were right because here come lots of alien scum to kick your head in.
