Okay so I've never played any Wing Commander but this sounds funny. Who is Hobbes and how did CR gently caress him up?

Hobbes was the K'zin Kilrathi (space cat) deserter who flew with you throughout a bajillion previous missions, helping you take out some of the upper echelon of the Kilrathi leadership and turning the war around.

In WC3, between you deciding whether to nail the pornstar mechanic or the girl-next-door ace pilot, Hobbes is revealed to be a deep sleeper agent who's out to ruin your reputation and get you out of the way as the space cats launch their final attack on Earth. Because obviously, that whole traitor thing worked out so well in WC2 and it only makes sense that the cat who was instrumental in the murder of all those cat royalty was totes out to get you all along…

Seconding this. Also Hawaiian is an abomination. If you put pineapple on your pizza you are weak, your bloodline is weak, and you won't survive the winter.

"New York style" is, in reality, just a wide variety of styles at variable prices.

"Seattle style pizza" is the worst. Seriously how can a major city know so little about pizza?

Wrong. Wrong wrong wrong.

First off, when going to the ocean, nothing deliciously clears the saltwater taste out of your mouth like Hawaiian pizza.

Second, I am not a young man, and I like Hawaiian pizza, and, obviously, many winters I have survived.

This is just the best gif ever. Also, pineapples on pizza is incredible.

If you ever want to make your own incredible pizza.

Use Ghost pepper cheese, Sri racha sauce, garlic dough. Throw sliced jalepenos. mushrooms, and pineapples onto the pizza. If you eat meat, throw whatever meat you like on it. Bake at 400 for like half an hour or whatever cooks it.

It's friggin amazing and spicy. My grandma gave me some of this: http://www.umakitchen.com/2012/03/green-chilli-picklepachai-milagai.html

That's the spiciest poo poo you'll ever taste. If you make that on your own, knead it into the dough of the pizza. You'll be crying tears, it's so good.

There was a deleted scene that revealed Hobbes as you knew him was some sort of personality construct, with the real Kilrathi double-agent in him being awoken by a phrase used by Prince Thrakhath (main Kilrathi bad guy) during a broadcast to your ship.

Tenuous and convoluted, but it worked a bit better than "the guy you flew with and trusted for years was just joshing you all along". I don't know why they cut it.

I don't know a thing about the older source material that fueled the nostalgia leading into the SC debacle we know and love, and I'm late to address this- but the bad guys have "Kill" and "Wrath" in their name? That makes Vanduul seem almost subtle.

I can kind of forgive it, being the early 90s. It's like all those hokey old sci-fi films in the 50s. "It seemed like a good idea at the time".

I found the scene, by the way.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_PUcu0mBKg

I had the theory that Heart of the Tiger wasn't Blair's nickname from the Kilrathi at all, it was just a way for the phrase to be worked into the message for Hobbes. Why risk waking Hobbes up early if a random Kilrathi fighter pilot mentions it during a fight?
