I bought WIng commander blind and loved it, I was irrationally unhappy I didn’t have a hand to control the joystick (if you know, you know. 2 was another level again and my computer struggled, the spirit cutscene slowed to a slideshow unfortunately which killed the impact a bit.
It was a while later when I walked into a store to see the opening cutscene for 3. I amazed and bought it straight away. I was unhappy with the spy reveal though, I loved that character and felt it wasted the them. The cutscenes were amazing for the time, I lost just to see the alternate cut scenes. If only they could’ve realised that vision in the movie.
This is in reference to a blooper, right? I tried to find it on youtube, to no avail. If you have it somewhere, could you please share the link? Thanks!
Nice! I only played one of them. Whichever one has him say the line “The price of peace freedom is eternal vigilance.” It’s been a loooong time but I remember that very cool quote.

Always wanted to kill that dude, but then I’d get stranded. I think I usually got stuck at some point later but can’t remember where

That's from IV, and you're almost correct, it's "the price of freedom" instead of "peace". But very memorable indeed!

Yes! Damn I knew it sounded weird. Thanks.
