WING COMMANDER 1 + 2 ON GOG.COM

Talk about anything related to the games in the WC Series (WC1, WC2, WC3, WC4, WC5, WCSO, Privateer, Privateer 2, Armada, etc..). Personally if you haven't played any of these games you are truly missing something special, add these to your 'bucket list'.

I think it's bundled with dosbox, so CTRL+F11 slows down the game.

I will respectfully disagree. If you configure DosBox right, it plays better than the real thing (IMHO). Besides I recompiling the games for a new enviroment (Dos ---> Windows) will introduce new bugs, and would need a LOT of testing.

Personally though if anyone is re-releasing any games to work on Win7 and above OS (when it comes out) it should work or they should provide all of the configuration steps or config files to get it to run on the latest OS. It should never be up to the customer to get the game running on DOSBox. I have used this successfully in the past but it took some tinkering on my part to game games to run right on Win7.I'm sure a developer (EA) could code something in a day or so to make it happen and add it to the package.
