Why some game maker has not dusted off the old Wing Commander series and updated it with modern graphics is beyond me.
It was the best series during its day.

Space games died in the nineties. No one plays them anymore. Nowadays it's all about zombies. |

I'm inclined to agree with this, despite having been a WC fan from #1. Still recall "fondly" how my 20mb HDD could not fit WC2 + boot files. I need to boot off a 5.25 inch to run the game.
But even if they re-did it now with updated graphics, I can't see it being popular beyond those of us who has a nostalgic attachment to the title.
Much as I'd like it
Edit: Of course there are similar titles. Sol Exodus is in development now ... |

Thanks for the throwback. I'd love if Eve had more than the standard MMO Target, hit with some module approach that most MMO's take with just a few complications added on. I absolutely loved the wing commander series as a kid, being a small child and fighting the kilrathi.
I've been asking for some form of more involved controls like throttle and such, I hate click and point or click and approach, personally. Such is life. |

Hell, given the logic-áthinking-ádrugged cat tripping over a keyboard-álet's-smash-our-heads-in-with-frying-pans-and-see-what-comes-out of that film, you could consider EVE the next ultra-realistic part of the WC saga, what with its submarines in WD40 space physics and all.
You know, when first writing the description in that post, I was thinking if I should go on making some less than subtle reference implying that the creators of the film would use those crackhead children in some kind of paedo slave ring, but chose to go for something more understated insteadGǪ Now that I think of what's actually in it, I'm beginning to regret that decision. **** that movie.

The Wing Commander movie was the absolute worst movie I've ever seen. Horrible. When I'm talking to friends about bad movies, I always mention Wing Commander as the worst movie. Worse than those suicide-inducing Dungeons and Dragons movies. Worse than even Breakin' 2 - Electric Boogaloo. |

the claim "space games are dead" is bunk, the studios told themselves they were dead, so they stopped investing in good titles, so people lost interest.
then there is the entire Chris Robert's Little Brother Kills Colonel Blair.... Bored in 0.0?-á reset all standings.
