WC4 Reloaded in the Netherlands

Here's one for Wing Commander fans from The Netherlands. Dutch gaming magazine Gamer.NL posted a review of the Good Old Games re-release of Wing Commander IV a while back. While the author is clearly nostalgic, having played the game when it first came out in 1996, the generally positive review also has some trouble overcoming dated aspects of the game such as 4:3 aspect ratio or the ground mission (not to mention older games in the series). WC games traditionally exit with the ALT+X key combination, not ALT+F4, by the way. Check out the full review here (translation).

The highlight of the series, however, Wing Commander IV, a game that at the time just as much of a PC Crysis early as today. And even with an uber powerful Pentium 100 with 8 Megabytes of RAM (yes you read that right: Megabytes), the loading of each mission lasted a few minutes.
