I like it! 60 seconds of great advertizing. The whole damn thing 
makes the game look like a movie! (And a movie better than 
anything I have ever seen). The only thing I object to is at the 
end.
    A kid is playing the game at his desk. As you all my know by 
now. You don't PLAY Wing Commander games, you LIVE them! This 
game is going to be amazing!

The place I found the TV commercial for WCIV is at Origin's homepage on the Web. To get there, go 
to
http://www.ea.com/
This is, of course, the Electronic Arts homepage. From there, just start clicking on the obvious 
stuff. You'll get there in three clicks, I think: one to the Origin homepage, the next to the 
WCIV stuff, and the last on the sneak preview for the TV commercial. Then you'll be on the 
download page.

I've been trying to download the movie using Netscape 2.0, but the
Origin server doesn't seem to want to send it to me...

I agree with you here....  
    
           WING COMMANDER'S NOT A GAME.. IT'S A STATE OF MIND!!!
