Chris Roberts returns to Wing Commander roots

This is incredible. I would have done a trailer like that, and the game looks awesome.

This is a game I want to buy. Please, please don’t let Microsoft be the publisher (where it becomes Windows 8 exclusive).

Just watched it again and became more excited. THIS IS A WING COMMANDER REMAKE. The ‘Red Alert’ sequence of red flashing lights showing only the boots, the view of your cockpit as you rush out of the ship, the piloting around the giant white asteroids, even the enemy ships have the iconic Kilirathi design. And he showed you can walk around the battlecruiser… just like in Wing Commander.

Consider this game bought on day 1. And I never say that for video games.

PC exclusive? That means flightstick baby.

The way how PC gaming is meant to be played. None of this Xbox 360 controller crap. Get that filth back to your console you spoony gamer! No touch screen controls because that is for tablet junk. This is a man’s controller. And only a complicated flightstick will work with the PC.

Already, Chris Roberts is brilliantly (or inadvertently) creating a Blue Ocean space. There is NO COMPETITION here.
