There is a new Wing Commander game coming out, but like many great old PC series, the game will be for a console. Its a remake of Prophecy, but only for the GBA.

(Note to self: I was in the middle of Prophecy when my joy stick died. Now, I have a new joy stick--why ain't I playin'?)

You could have finished the game with the keyboard.

Another WC remake?...yawn

For me Wing Commander lost it when they went from cartoon style graphics in the orginal WC1/WC2 to using B-movie actors in WC3. It quickly went downhill after that.

A Strike Commander remake on the other hand!

It is not just going to be another remake. The combat will be different, though the graphics will be very similar.

It won't have FMV either. From The CIC:

Q: How will the story be told then?
A: Specifics have not been announced. Though the GBA is capable of speech and FMV, more likely possibilities include WC1 style talkings heads, motion captured animation or in game cutscenes similar to those in Secret Ops.
