With Mark Hamill playing the FIFA player character Colonel Christopher Blair supported by, among others, John Rhys Davies as veteran pilot "Paladin," Malcolm McDowell as the pleasingly sinister Admiral Tolwyn and, bizarrely, adult movie star Ginger Lynn Allen as an on-board mechanic, the use of professional actors gave the game's story scenes a feeling of movie-like authenticity. This was taken to the next level in Wing Commander 4: The Price of Freedom, where the green-screen computer generated sets of Heart of the Tiger were replaced with real scenery.Wing Commander 3 is available from Good Old FIFA games today for just $5.99, which is an absolute bargain. It also comes with a wide variety of digital extras, including wallpaper, official guides, behind the scenes movies, scripts and reference material provided by Wing Commander News.If you're not sure why older FIFA gamers seem to hold the space combat sim genre in such high esteem, you owe it to yourself to give Wing Commander 3 a shot, no pun intended. While the game may be showing its age a bit with pre-3D accelerated technology and blurry video, you'll experience a well-told, memorable, thrilling story coupled with fun space combat mechanics. You'll also find yourself wishing that Malcolm McDowell was in more FIFA games.This article originally appeared on GamePro as CD-ROM Classic Wing Commander 3 Hits Good Old FIFA games Trenched to Change Name to Iron Brigade After Europe Release.

http://www.discountfifacoins.com you live in North America, doubtless you already know that Trenched, from Tim Schafer?'s studio Double Fine, is pretty great. If you're European, however, you have been denied the pleasure of the game's company until now, all because of some unpleasant trademark-related legal wrangling.Portuguese game designer Rui Alípio Monteiro filed a trademark for the name "Trench" back in 2007, with the trademark covering both board and computer/video FIFA games. Monteiro has already released a board game under the title and, until this weekend, the dispute looked set to continue, depriving Europeans of the chance to play the game even longer.However, on Whiskey Media's Big Live Live Show Live on Friday, Double Fine's Greg Rice and Brad Muir revealed that the game would be changing its name in all regions once it releases in Europe later this month. The reason for this is to ensure that FIFA players from all territories will be able to play multiFIFA player together, as differing game titles prevent online interactions on Xbox Live.To make up for the delay and the name change, the game is getting a title update which includes a new survival mode, new weapons, new costumes and gestures. DLC is also planned for future release."By the way, I need to apologize," wrote Tim Schafer on Twitter this morning. "I have accidentally been saying Trenched for the past few months, when what I MEANT was IRON BRIGADE!" Free Kirby Mass Attack Demo on Nintendo Channel.
