Wing Commander Arena - Relation To Previous Wing Commander Games

Relation To Previous Wing Commander Games

Arena's gameplay differs from previous Wing Commander installments. Rather than using a first-person perspective cockpit used throughout the series, Arena is played from a top-down perspective on a 2D plane with the third axis reserved for special maneuvers, using a control scheme that resembles a first-person shooter.

The producer, Sean Penney, is a longtime fan of the franchise. Early in development, Electronic Arts sought input from members of the original Wing Commander development team, such as Chris Roberts, and from the Wing Commander online community.

    Whoever has a keen eye for profits, is blind in relation to his craft.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)

    I believe that there was a great age, a great epoch when man did not make war: previous to 2000 B.C. Then the self had not really become aware of itself, it had not separated itself off, the spirit was not yet born, so there was no internal conflict, and hence no permanent external conflict.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    The rules of drinking games are taken more serious than the rules of war.
