Fixed. Deus Ex really was teh win though. Except for the Dragon Tooth Sword taking up 3 or 4 inventory slots. Somebody dropped the ball there. |

Nice. The flexibility is something I really expect to see in future video games, less of an "in the box" style. Has some really good ideas too. |

Wow. I just watched the whole thing and... that's great. The idea that you can go from micromanaging a single creature in a large world to managing an empire in a whole galaxy is just unbelievable. |

Looks interesting but it doesn't have enough killing in it. It may very well be the best game in its field but I doubt its the best game ever... I would much rather play Halo than it. |

It's the paradigm shift in design convention that makes it interesting. Halo, good, sure. ...but how about Halo where you have a great range of cusomization for your character & his gear? Where you can create your own planet for your clan / guild, and set up a custom base which can be invaded by opposing teams, etc.? The game looks worth a play - nothing overly fantastic, IMHO, but the genre-busting open-endedness is a great innovation. |

What makes me excited about this game is what can come affter it. If this same idea was applied to other games like FPS or Online RPGs we will start seeing masive online worlds that are chaging every minute in acordence to what the users do. Just think of WoW where the sotry line and world aucatly eval and could get out to the galxy verson. |

So where a single Goblin spaceship, rented by Horde forces, annihilates an Alliance-only planet; and all of the players located there will have their accounts deleted. wow! |

Obvesly i was talking about the techogly and consepcts used in this game to creat user infuceds unvisers and not aucaly copy and pasting WoW in to it..... Tho i whould think that a goblin made anything has at least 50/50 chance of back fireing and blowing up it's self if not the opsits factions plaent. |

Couldn't have said it better. It's a revolutionary type of game, I could even see some other games being made off the same engine. |

Awesome Game and the graphics aren't too bad either. It's the best game of its kind but not the best game ever though! |

I love the variety, and the amazing editor. But it seems so ambitious. And it progressively gets weirder. I think its cool that an animal you made is nuking another planet, but what if I wanted to stay unsentient and roam around and eat things? Sometimes im in the mood for an RTS, othertimes im in the mood for RPG, so I hope you can sort of choose. Its a cool game otherwise. Would take a lot of time and effort to edit your own custom buidling style tho. |
