Torrent file.

For mac, win, and linux.

Haven't downloaded it.
Might be super cool, I loved Wing Commander, never got to play privateer.

I wonder if this is legal?

After a quick educational sample of Privateer I have to say that it's pretty amazing stuff, gotta love what these abandonware kids are capable of. A little complicated for my tastes.

I remember doing everything in my power to get Super Wing Commander to work on my old performa, playing the game in a little 320x240 window.

I really wish this series would come back, especially with the current status of graphics and whatnot.

Dude I want to play Wing Commander 3 again. That game was awesome...

Unfortunately it requires DOS (yeah its that old). I mean, people brought back Star Control 2 but that's b/c they ported it off the 3DO port (a port of a port if you will).
