Display MoreSome intrepid archivist recently uploaded what seems to be a full run of famed gentleman's magazine Playboy. So of course we've done the hard work for you and pulled out every page where Wing Commander is mentioned! You can come up with your own 'reading it for the articles' joke here.
July 1992 - a gift guide mentions Wing Commander II as being one of the top flight simulation games.
May 1995- a short review of Wing Commander III!
April 1996 - this one mentions Jennifer MacDonald's Wing Commander III role in a caption of a photograph of her pole dancing. Huh.
August 1998 - the casting announcement for the Wing Commander movie, plus a lucky appearance from Ultima Online!
November 2007 - A goofy 'history of gaming' sidebar says Wing Commander III was a bad idea. Playboy really did go downhill!
The 1996 issue's page includes full frontal nudity (much of which is not Wing Commander-related) and so we have censored it above. You can access the uncensored page here.
