I still have my Kilrathi Saga CD collection. If Wing Commander 2 is abandonware, than there shouldn't be any trouble getting it up.

I have the Kilrathi Saga as well. It will be up but there is no saying how long it is going to take.

Wing Commander 2 I believe is abw, and it's not that big, even with the speach. (Got CDs somewhere...)

I've already uploaded Wing Commander 2 about a week ago, I think it's about 14 Megs or so.

Wing Commander 1-4 are abandoned until someone proves otherwise (I have not been able to find copies of these). Sadly four and five are far too big to place online.

I got them all and can tell that Privater 2 is the best in WC series. :)

Privateer is not part of the Wing Commander line (Privateer is). P2 takes place in a different universe then WC does. I like P2 but it has some repetativeness issues. The lead character makes it all very cool. Yet another game that is far too large to place on the site.

Actually EA used to offer Prophecy as a free download, so it probably is.

first of all im new to this site, and i love it! thanks for everyone who put work into making these old classics run again.

i saw wing commander 1 on the DL page and immediately grabbed it. i agree with the reviewer completely: graphics, storyline, everything was revolutionary.

then Wing Commander 2 came along and had even better graphics, a more in depth story...its a close second with WC3 for my favorite game of all time.

would WC2 be able to be ported? i'd bow before anyone who could do that

also, what about the secret missions expansions to WC1? some tough missons in those, and new ships to boot!

thanks guys, look forward to replies!

I second the request for WC2. The version I had back in the day had a glitch where it would crash every time I torpedoed the Kilrathi listening post in the asteroid belt with Angel as my wingman (wingwoman?).

Does anybody know where to find the Secret Missions or Wing Commander II to download? Sadly, the old 5.25" disks just don't fit in my dang computer anymore. Thanks for any help.

Wait a minute... that doesn't sound right. How could they possibly still have these around? I remember I saw another post on the improbability of cdaccess being a legitimate company. Allow me to ask you: IF even Amazon.com doesn't have a large stock of these, and there are no new DOS versions on Ebay, how could Cdaccess still have all of these in stock. AND with only a ziplock bag? That sounds completely unreasonable!

:huh:
That it does... but what I find a bit more important than how they got all those copies is that CDAccess is selling them packaged in Ziploc bags (where all releases of the game were in box).

? I don't quite understand what you mean by "I smell a rat". If a rat is someone who "gives in" and tells someone unwanted information, then are you pointing at me?Then would it be an offense?
Oh and I had thought that important information, I just didn't see it until after I had found all the other information.

He only wants to say that there is something obviously wrong with CDAccess.com.

Thank you. AND there is something definitely fishy about cdaccess. Here is the original thread:http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15101&hl=
