[37]***You're a starfighter pilot, the best of the best, but nothing in your training prepared you for action this hot. Deepspace dogfights against Kilrathi aces are deadly, and the future of humanity is on the line each time you fly! Wing Commander puts you in the middle of the most intense starship action you've ever experienced outside of a movie theatre. But in Wing Commander, you're the star!

- Thrill to the dynamic soundtrack that senses the action on-screen and alters the pacing, tempo and mood of the music to match!
- Advance in rank while piloting one of four unique Terran spacefighters against a deadly array of enemy ships.
- See the action from all angles using Wing Commander's player-controlled camera.
- Count on your wingman, a skilled pilot, thanks to the advanced Wing Commander artificial intelligence system, but don't get cocky: the enemy flies intelligently too!

Wings of Fury Brøderbund (Unlimited Software)1990 MS-DOSlabelimageminimize
Wings of Thunder author1994Something a bit different for a Flight Sim Toolkit game; it's Sci-Fi in a future setting. The author insists the game only runs 640x480 VESA mode but it seems to have all the same hardware compatibility as any other Flight Sim Toolkit game. However, a faster CPU is helpful for this specific game. MS-DOSlabelminimizeminimize
Winzer Starbyte1991 MS-DOSlabelimageminimize
Wizardry VII: Crusaders of the Dark Savant  Sir-Tech;Night Dive Studios (Sir-Tech)1992A RPG game that has aged very bad.

Pros:
-Variety in character making.
-Interesting mix between sci-fi and medieval-LOTR fantasy.
-Harsh and unforgiving enemies.
-Nice pixel art.

Cons:
-Randomness is too high, making it kind of a game of dice (sometimes you achieve more by failing and repeting than with a well-tought strategic approach)

Wolfpack  Brøderbund;Mirrorsoft (NovaLogic)1990In 1994 they released a CD-ROM version of this game. The only enhancement is the new intro.***1994 CD-ROM version.

[52]***1994 CD-ROM version
[37]***Original floppy disk version
[37]***The time is Autumn 1942. Allied shipping losses mount as the German wolfpacks stalk the convoy routes and sink an unprecedented amount of Allied tonnage. However, the Allied forces have discovered SONAR and RADAR, the technology for waging the most devastating kind of anti-submarine warfare.

The odds are even, the Convoy Escort Commander in a destroyer matching wits against the Wolfpack Commander in a U-Boat, only one will enjoy a hero's welcome the other will rest forever in an icy grave.

Wolfpack is a precise simulation of a confrontation between a German submarine wolfpack and an Allied shipping convoy, with attention to detail and interactivity exceeding that of current implementations, the simulation allows the player to take the part of either a Wolfpack Commander or that of the Convoy Escort Commander. Wolfpack offers the realism of a full scale, real time, strategic encounter.

Features include:
- Unique construction set
- Several different scenarios
- Accurate armaments and instruments
- Superb graphics
- One or two player option
- Day/Night missions

X-COM: UFO Defense  Microprose (Mythos Games)1994Un clásico de acción por turnos, que sigue manteniendo su inmensa dificultad (donde los enemigos muchas veces son más listos que tú y retirarse es una opción muy viable)
Visto desde hoy, peca de una interfaz complejísima e impracticable, en lo cual le supera el reciente XCOM: Enemy Unknown (a pesar de no tener las opciones de varias bases y su construcción en detalle)
Interesante desde el punto de vista histórico, pero a excepción del reto que supone no tiene nada que no se sienta anticuado y obsoleto.

- Command deadly close-combat battles:
Shooting down UFOs is just the beginning; you must the lead a squad of heavily-armed soldiers across different terrains as they investigate the UFO crash site. Tackle the aliens with automatic rifles, rocket launchers and even tanks in the struggle to retrieve useful technology, weapons or life forms.

- Research and manufacture alien technologies:
Successful ground assault missions will allow X-Com scientists to analyse alien items. Each new breakthrough brings you a little closer to understanding the technology and culture of the alien races. When your engineers have amassed sufficient research data on their superior weapons and craft, they'll be available for your troops to use.

- Develop a strategy to save the Earth:
You must make every crucial decision as you combat the powerful alien forces. But you'll also need to watch the world political situation; governments may be forced into secret pacts with the aliens and then begin to reduce X-Com funding.
