Now that it seems there's a good chance Tex will be back... it had me thinking the other franchise at whose passing I weep openly is Wing Commander.
Then I see this on slickdeals- Fan made WC game "WC Saga" is done and available for download.
Have I died and gone to heaven?
I haven't tried it yet, but the 3.x GB download should have finished last night sometime.
But seriously- Can Half Life 2 Episode 3 be far off? Or a game that finally reveals the Secret of Monkey Island?
