Wing commander 4 will feture 16bit color in the movie sequences that makes it look like a movie in picture quality. The sound is MUCH better than wing 3 and eany other game for that matter.I know wing 3 also had 16 bit sound but the sound and music quality is so much better now. On a sound blaster 16 at least. The game supports all known popular sound cards. One very crutial improvement is the mission load times. No, at least in the demo version a mission loads within 10 seconds! Not the 30 second or more wait in wing 3, plus no pauses in combat. Don't play this game with less than 16mb of ram. It's difficult. origin now lists a Dx4 100 as the minimum reccomended system, andthats for vga. For svga a pentium is highly reccomended. Something like a 90 or 100!
