Ghost Guide Still for Sale Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Scott Gould found another online store selling the nonexistent Privateer 3 Strategy Guide. These have haunted us every since 1998 when Privateer 3 was tossed around by Origin. Anyhow, we received word quite a while ago from Prima that the book had long since been canceled. You can find the latest ghost here, the Prima notice on June 4, 1999 and the first mention of this guide way back on August 10, 1998 (our very first update!).

Three Reviews, Three Games, Three WC References Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

We've got a number of various reviews for different games that credit Wing Commander. A couple are from ATFW and one is from Shadowlight. I'm going to hit them in one update here.

  • GA-Source has a review of last year's Freespace 2. It's rather late, but nevertheless, you can find it here. This one admits that FS2 borrows from the Wing Commander line.
  • The Game Revolution preview of Starlancer begins with another review of Wing Commander history. You can find it here.
  • CNN did a review of X: Beyond the Frontier. Like Wing Commander and Starlancer, Privateer always gets the nod in XBTF reviews. You can find this one here.

Rain, rain, go away! Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

An on-the-spot report by Simon Freak. I'm standing atop a hill on Bex, witnessing the most ferocious storms in the planet's history. It's been raining here for over two weeks now, and many of the planet's lower areas are completely flooded. Thousands have been made homeless, and prices for real estate on hills and mountains have tripled. Fresh water is, unsurprisingly, in abundance, and any trader willing to try and diminish the huge stockpile by shipping some off-planet would be made more than welcome.
