As some of you may know, wing commander: The price of freedom has 'issues' with modern 64 bit systems. Mostly because it's "Win95" patch adds a 16bit installer, and current computers don't support any programs which are lower than 32bit.
And if you are some one like myself who has a large interest in early 90's games. But is a total noob at DosBox. More problems will arise.
Any chance of GoG Picking up the rights to Wing Commander 4 and providing us with a compatible 'Win95' patch?
Wing Commander Prophecy still works wonders on modern systems
(Even if windows 7 likes to minimise the game, maximise a cutscene and then minimise said cutscene and restore the game every time one of the videos is played. But that could simply be because I am using the Prophecy DVD fan-Patch)
But It would be great to see it on GoG.
I own second hand copies of Wing Commander 3-5 and I frequently play Prophecy in my spare time.
But if GoG would finish off the 'main' wing commander sega I would gladly purchase all five games.
So does anyone have any news?
