Reply to Xbox Live Reaches 6 Million Members in XBOX GalCiv2 Forums

My childhood pal got an Xbox 360 but he seldom plays on it since he think people is cheap (He always lose). He's girlfriend mostly plays Uno or some simple game like that where no brainpower is involved. We did play some Street Fighter 2 against some americans. Quite funny But the sad part is that he unlocks achievments in games just to show of...and he's 26 now!

The genre is also the problem. Males are most likely to do the most exciting things. I.E. war, fighting, racing, scifi type stuff. so ladies, get your asses into jets, strap on guns and kick Captain kirk ou of his seat and well play games about you, maybe The truth. There's the time my gf was playing Unreal Tournament free-for-all with me. This guy online hit on her and wanted to see if she would t

Reply to Unreal Tournament 2007 becomes UT3 in Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

The only shooter that worked great and the one that worked the best on consoles was DOOM on Playstation. And that was solely since you couldn't aim vertically. In every consoleshooter where you have to aim vertically it doesn't work....it's always too slow (if it would have been too fast it wouldn't have been precise enough. And a button to increase the speed increses the nr of buttons you have to use at the same time. I played a little Halo and directly thought that the controls were w

Reply to Is Stardock making a Fantasy TBS game? in Strategy GalCiv2 Forums

I can't wait for news on the game. MoM is probably my favorite game of all time. In fact I'd probably be playing it right now instead of DA, if it weren't for its horrible AI and diplomacy. Where can we get news about this game, I mean where will the news be announced? Sorry if I sound like a fanatic, I just want to be there as soon as anything becomes known. This and the main site. Have been like that

lol....a little site with ugly layout that I've never seen before.... I thought the review was too small. Not enough pics to show what he meant and overall too little info. Not good enough. And I don't think I've ever seen a company link to a bad review on their site.

Reply to I don't have what it takes anymore in Real-Time GalCiv2 Forums

By competetive games definition, the people who think like Brad, are scrubs . You make up mental rules that stops you from winning. You simply do not play to win. I used to think like that myself when I was a kid. "WAAAAAH THAT'S CHEAP!!!" I used to say when someone throwed energy balls and used the dragon punch when I jumped over them in Street Fighter 2. These days, my old friend who still only play games on consoles refuse

Reply to Is gaming really evolving? in PC Gaming GalCiv2 Forums

Ofcourse gaming is evolving! Back in 1986 with my new NES, platform games like mario and arcade games like spaceinvaders was the norm. These days it's global tournamnets in fastpaced RTS and FPS games that put your skill to the test which you follow LIVE on the net! A.I has become more advanced since more computing power is available. Graphics has advanced so that physics are now a factor in games so an artillery shell can hit airplanes (Supreme Commander), bullets can hit di

Reply to Is Stardock making a Fantasy TBS game? in Strategy GalCiv2 Forums

I just certainly hope Stardock understands the importance of tactical combat. In a MoM-like game, tactical combat would be one of the most important parts - if not THE most important part - in the entire game, since I would be ultimately disappointed by GalCiv 2 in a fantasy world (Don't like GalCiv....slow and boring with no action so I've gone back to my RTS games). So now when DA is out it's enough with one man as postgame support for it so the rest can work on your fantasy TBS game

Reply to Supreme Commander or Command & Conquer 3 :Tiberium Wars ? in Strategy GalCiv2 Forums

Supreme Commander. It's the only modern, good RTS with that many good innovations. C&C 3 on the other hand is an attempt to milk the once good C&C series. I don't have high hopes about it since I've read what a few of the people who played at the community summit had to say about it.

Great article. Can't believe the amount of work you've put down on this....were you writing this for a schoolproject or something? I'd give you a B right away So are you yourself interested in RTS games? I guess I'm one of the few on this site that enjoys them greatly. Nothing as satisfying as out-macro and microing your opponent who can't keep up <img src="http://images.stardock.com/gc2/T_DL/smil

Reply to Is Stardock making a Fantasy TBS game? in Strategy GalCiv2 Forums

If they make a modern Master of Magic then they only need to change some names of stuff to avoid lawsuits. You know, do a spirutual successor like Supreme Commander or Bioshock that really IS real sequels to Total Annihilation and System Shock but without the correct names. People online know that Supreme Commander is TA 2 but with a different name. It's really easy to do the same with Master of Magic since just like Supreme Commander it will be so updated and improved that Atari

Reply to Epic Generator -- a feature too far? in GalCiv Journals GalCiv2 Forums

5months on the epic generator?! I'd say this is the biggest screwup Stardock have done so far. 5 months of development time on something that isn't used when playing the game....unbelievable.... You must set your priorities straight and build from the ground up. If the Dark Avatar project is like adding a balcony, garage and a swimming pool to the house (GalCiv II) then you've

Reply to Dominions 3 goes gold! in GalCiv II News GalCiv2 Forums

Ok, I tried the demo of Dom II half a year ago and didn't understand anything. WAY to complicated. I also didn't like GalCiv II that much since it's boring since it's all about planning and no real action. So is Dominions III just a bunch of planning or are there battles like in Age of Wonders in which you move your troops?

Nice list, but aren't the election approval ratings getting fixed? Now, if you go with 25% approval rating and turn it up to 80% the day before election then you win easily. Then the next day you turn it back down to 25%....Has this issue been thought of?

I watched the HighQuality trailer and man am I impressed. When I saw the map zooming out to like 5km so you see masses of blue and red gives a great overview. And then when he zoomed in to the middle where blue and red met were so cool. Some Cybran (red) ships went up to land and blue had like a 100 mechs. It was really zoomed in too. Then all of a sudden this BIG laserbeam comes and cuts thro
