Re-Release of x-wing & tie fighter games.

[Volron]

Now, imagine if they remade them using the FreeSpace 2 Engine...  *drools*

[GScholz]

Or perhaps a new engine like the CryEngine...

[Volron]

I'd like to be able to run it at full graphics without having to build a new machine, thank you.   Admittedly the CryEngine is awesome, but I feel the FreeSpace 2 Engine would fit better in my opinion.

Um... Freespace 2 was released in 1999; the year after the updated Windows version of X-Wing and TIE Fighter. I don't think there would be much of an improvement.

That may be but it is the correct platform to be used if it update is to be made.

Reference the FS Source Code Project. And this video that I made years ago is not even the latest iteration

Do they make you buy an expansion pack in order to hear the dialogue in the cut scenes?

[Wolfala]

Nope. All there

   I have to dig up my old x-wing CD. I had a companion disk : "Balance of Power" I don't see that one in the update.

Because it's not XW vs Tie fighter which was 1998. This is XW 1994 and Tie Fighter 1995 and Tie CD collectors edition 1997/1998.
