What Would They Compare a WC Game to? Share on Bluesky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

Jumpstart brought to our attention the new Avault preview of Freespace 2. Just like last week's Gamespot preview, it mentions Wing Commander heavily. You can find the Avault preview here.
I'll always remember the first time I played the original Wing Commander as my own little gaming Renaissance. After cutting my teeth on early adventure games by Infocom and Sierra, I had gone through a period in which I kind of lost interest in PC games. When I booted up Wing Commander, however, I was hooked once again.
And another thing.. what's with all the upcoming space sims looking exactly like Privateer 2 from 1996? Below is the Freespace 2 ship at the top of the Avault preview and the Kindred Blade from Privateer 2.
