It's coming down to the wire - have you finished your Christmas shopping? If not, GOG is giving Wingnuts one more opportunity to download Wing Commander at a discount, and this one's a killer deal! Virtually the entire series: ten games and six expansion packs plus numerous bonus features are just $11.92. That's 75% off for a few more hours. If you miss the sale, there's still a bit more time at the 50% off rate, but this is the best offer we've ever seen. Who would've ever thought we could legitimately get so much Wing Commander for so cheap?! This deal was the result of a community poll over at the GOG forums, so it's not just us who are still in love with the series. Finally, it should come as no surprise, but Wing Commander is currently killing the sales charts!
To celebrate the addition of Erin Roberts' team, Foundry 42, to the Cloud Imperium Games fold, Roberts Space Industries is running a contest for some amazing Wing Commander merchandise! The top prize is Chris Roberts' original leather crew jacket from the development of Wing Commander 3. There's also an incredible 3.5 foot long Heretic model made for Privateer 2. In addition a variety of other sci-fi merchandise, there's some film from the Wing Commander Movie and some additional P2 concept art. Some really incredible stuff! Head over and enter the contest here. You'll need to answer a trivia question that asks which actor spoke a particular line in one of the Wing Commander series' interactive movies. The correct answer shouldn't be too tough for dedicated Wingnuts. And do it NOW - the contest ends very, very soon!
