Elite and Wing Commander new versions coming soon.

[Dogzero1]

When I were a lad, well in my early 20's actually, PC gaming was in its infancy and just starting.  Back then gaming was a new thing.  It was original and different and whole new world was opening up.  My two favourite non A/C sim games at the time were the Wing Commander series and the Elite series.  Well now David Braben and Chris Roberts are back.  Have a look.  I for one can't wait and I feel like a kid again waiting for christmas.

I had a thread I posted in the pub when Star Citizen first came out but I guess I never got it moved over to the Sci-Fi simulations forum.

I will admit I am a space sim fan as Elite was the first game I played on back in 1982/3 and I am signed up for Elite Dangerous Beta for when it is released... as to Star Citizen I will wait and see...
