I still have my original discs from X-Wing Alliance. Good game, but the whole family plot thing was just tedious and I hated the characters. Being an anonymous pilot like in TIE Fighter was the best.

Is X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter worth getting? As I understand it, it was mostly multiplayer, and if there aren't any servers around anymore....

Origin released them awhile ago, guess ea's trying to bleed every title it has dry.

I know EA has been contracted to create new content, but I'm not sure any re-release has anything to do with EA, save possible distribution through Origin. I doubt EA has anything to do with the titles released on GoG, either. Anything's possible, I suppose. I doubt the IP is owned by anyone other than Lucasfilm. All I know is someone posted about the update to Alliance a while back and, at that time, I couldn't find a copy that wasn't priced higher than I was willing to pay or wasn't from questionable sources on Ebay. |

If you download the digital copy from GoG, at this time, the graphics update won't work. |

I don't know who owns them but these titles along with some of the old wing commander games showed up a few months ago on origin.

I've been rocking Tie Fighter 1998 for a Month or so now.
Amazing how I retained 95% of the key commands from when I was a kid. 
I downloaded the rest yesterday - Can't wait to play Dark Forces again. Quoted:
+1 on the bandwagon. Just finished playing TIE fitgher Seriously one of my favorite games of all time. I love the where Harkov's guys break bad. What a great storyline. |

I downloaded Rebellion a few days ago. If you haven't played it you should.

Yes, do pick up Rebellion. I find I need to use mods to pick up the pace a bit and encourage the AI to build more ships for me to smash but I loved that game.
Rebed I get a better game if I make ships travel faster by decreasing their hyperspace rating. Whichever side I pick I modify the other so their ships cost less resources to build and maintain. |

The XWing Alliance upgrade came out with their large pack installer the other day, but had to take it down to fix a bug. Be looking for it any day now.
This game is truly top notch after that upgrade. Just the star field backgrounds make it a modern game. |
