Apparently the below is the unique box art for the Wing Commander SNES in Japan... anyone have any more information on this one?

Ladder of Years

A GameCenter article tiled Top 10 Game Predictions for 2001 included this look back at last year's "winner", FreeLancer.

Last year we were chomping at the bit to get our hands on this puppy--Chris Roberts of Wing Commander fame was given free rein to make the space game of his dreams, with Microsoft giving his Digital Anvil development studio tons of cash to do the job right. Well, we've seen the game at a couple of E3s, and what we're seeing isn't a whole different from what we saw when the game was first unveiled. Add in the fact that Digital Anvil's Conquest was dropped by Microsoft, it's anyone's guess as to what's going on over there.

Final Conflict Help

I've got some little problems with the movie "Final Conflict". I've rendered the scenes again in MPEG1 (Radius Cinepak Codec) and some pictures of the scenes have very low detailed graphics. The problem is, that I need to use this codec for the movie (because I want to show it on TV) !!! I even tried to convert good MPEG4-movies to MPEG1 (using Adobe Premiere, cause VirutalDub creates Graphic errors). But this converted MPEG1 movie was even worse !!!

I sent you two pictures of the movie showing the detail. Both pictures show the same movie (both MPEG1), but they show different frames. As you can see the one frame is looking very bad and poor detailed :-( !!! The other frame is looking very good... it seems like a mixture of some bad and a lot of good frames. I hope this detail will be accepted by the people, because I have no better MPEG1 Codec I could use...

Is there anybody out there, who could send me Codecs as Install-packets?? I need some codecs, but I want them as file-packets, which are easy to install. If there's anybody out there, who has some experience with Codecs, then please mail me at: finalconflict@gmx.de !!!

Thanks !!!
