'Today LucasArts reentered an agreement to resume its former relationship with Totally Games, a developer which brought gamers best-selling titles X-Wing Alliance, TIE Fighter, and Bridge Commander. Headed up by Lawrence Holland, Totally Games will draw fuel from its past efforts on Luftwaffe Commander and Their Finest Hour: Battle of Britain to bring an all-new World War II flight combat title to next-generation consoles and PC'
It may not be the next X-Wing Allience, but its definitely a start?

Same gameplay really, just better graphics. I only played the original X-Wing, not Tie Fighter. But Tie Fighter rules... speech in-flight rules.

So it wasnt just in my head! :)
Did you ever play the original? How did the improved versions play in comparison?

Apparently this world war 2 title is coming to X-Box. :-)
No, you're in fact very right, because I have them. Uses the X-Wing Vs Tie-Fighter engine, with remade menus and cut-scenes. Working for the Emperor's thing or whatever it was, the underground thing, was by far the best part of all the games.

Didnt they do a minor overhaul (graphics, sound, etc..) on Tie-Fighter and X-Wing at one point (maybe when they released them as a double pack???) ... I could very easily be wrong here :)

It is indeed. I'll probably buy it anyway, because I bet it'll be great fun.
Considering playing Tie Fighter again soon. Definitely the best in the series.
