Product Description
"Heart-pounding space action." - Computer Gaming World. From the back of the box: "The Kilrathi war may be over, but back home nothing is the same. There's trouble in the Border Worlds. Civil War seems imminent. You have to decide how to save the Confederation - or if it should be saved at all! The latest epic of the Wing Commander saga applies improved cinematic techniques and photo-realistic graphics to a story of intrigue, betrayal and death. Never before has Hollywood been so completely under your control."

 Alas poor Origin we knew them well. July 29, 2006

Some of you kids may not be old enough to remember this but there used to be this little company named Origin who made the best space combat games ever produced. Seriously kids you need to understand how big a 500 MB game was in 1995.
This game has three things that are lacking in most modern PC games
1. A plot that makes some kind of sense
2. Challenging missions. While I like modern day incarnations like X-2, Freelancer and Tacheyon there is just no challenge anymore. You play these missions 10 or 11 times and still not beat them.
3. Good actors there are none of the secound tier day time soap rejects that you find in most games. Even today if you can get this game to work you will recognize these people.
Overall-just a wonderful game which I have happy to play agian.

T. Gunderson: If you don't know how to run this game, don't rate it one star. Check out [...] if you have no clue on how to run it. Don't rate a gem one star.
This game is marvelous, has a great cast and a good plot. Unlike many games this game has a storyline that changes upon the influences of your decisions in-game. I played it for hours and hours straight when I was younger, and re-ordered it since I lost it. Maybe it's for the memories that I have towards this saga of games, but I seriously can't rate lower than 5 stars.

on this particular game, the game was given to me in windows 95. HE DID offer very easy instructions on how to manuver around this problem(i run xp), but when i asked for help once those didnt work, i have not received word back yet. other than that, the game came very quickly, and safely packaged.
