Wing Commander Privateer..... awesome.  Anyone else share my love of spaceships and giant angry cats?  This game led me to the short lived, and also awesome, Earth and Beyond.  An MMORPG that I actually paid a monthly fee to play.

The Wing Commander series is outstanding and really set the bar for these kind of space shooters. Can't say I ever played Earth and Beyond but I totally wanna play it! BloodJunky, have your played Broken Star One Dark Alliance on either PC or the Xbox 360? Freaking awesome game!

Never heard of Broken Star.  I'll have to check it out on my up coming break.

Cool man. It is very in-depth the gameplay, if you end up playing it, I look forward to hearing your thoughts! Here is some gameplay footage I recorded from the game: http://www.videogamesaga.com/apps/videos/videos/show/9769537-broken-star-one-dark-alliance-xbox-360-gameplay-footage-

My sister had a 486 PC with Windows 3.1.  I played a ton of Wing Commander 3 back in the day.  I admit though, I was never that good, but it blew me away how cinematic a video game could be--it was the first PC game that won me over by the story alone.

Looks like Bioware/EA might be testing the waters to see if there is still an audience for the Wing Commander series.
