This question has for some time flying around my brain. What will be the future of the niche markets in PC Gaming? As I understand it, revenue from PC gaming has decreased over the last years and at the same time concentrated around some specific brands like World of Warcraft (at least shop...

Creepiest thing that happened to me was after I watched the Ring for the first time I got drunk the next day with Absinth. Absinth sometimes has the effect of geting me some strange nightmare "cycles" where I wake up to just realise that I am still dreaming, waking up again and so forth. So that...

They probably did not fit with the generation of gamers back then or just werent as atracting to new players as were FPSs and RTSs back then. Thats probably a topic one can write a marketing and sales master thesis on. The last games of the big two franchises in the genre, WC:Prophecy and...

Well it might not have been the greatest movie, but if you look beyond the "fraternizing" scenes of the fighter pilots it was one of the better Sci Fi movies of the last years. The rapier design might have been a bit unlucky, but the fight scenes were decent and had their fair share of Wing...

Well thats basically what happened. The Foreign minister was quasi blackmailed with the live of her captured son by the Kilrathi and drove the Confed administartion into the armistice - with public support swinging heavily in favour of a peace deal (remember Confed is a democracy after all)...

At the start of Forstchens novel "Endrun" thats basically the situation. The Kilrathi have the upper hand with 2 times as many carriers as Confed and press on to victory. Thats where the "Endrun" story picks up with Tarawa going to Kilrah destroying the cruiser shipyard and several almost...

Would have sufficed if EP1 had started halfway through EP2 with minor plot reworks.

The last one made it to my desktop. Magnificent!

I feel with you. Hope that the situation works out for you and that you dont suffer too much. All the talk about divorce, makes me a bit melancholic. But probably I should lighten up and look forward to my marriage in two weeks, hope we wont break up (at least thats what we are promising each...

Is this realy good news? Sounds more like they are renewing the trademark as long as WC Arena and the PSP releases are not too far in the past. By 2012 it might be difficult to prove that they are activly using the trademark if there is no new release by then.

Its definitly an American thing. With all that creationism vs. evolution and the impact of "religion" has in everyday government its probably worth their time. Allthough I believe in God as well I get a laugh out of it when evangelicals try to disprove science with a literal interpretation of...

If you take a look at the various battle scenes from DS9, you ll notice that dozens of ships are blown to peaces in those battles. Most are never named, but there are several Galaxys, Excelsiors and Mirandas that just are there to get blown apart. The most beaten class probably is the...

Maybe some of you know Paradox interactive and their series of grand strategy games. They are going to release a new itearation of their WW2 series games, called Hearts of Iron. Their games are generally very modfriendly and with the newest version also the map will become very modable (as shown...

If you like this you may like to take a look at transcendence. http://neurohack.com/transcendence/

But it still leaves a bit of dissatisfaction if the main force that provoked this coming together makes not much sense. If the focus is on the crew and their development one could have made the enemy a faceless enemy without delving too much in his backstory. The plot on the antagonist side just...

Finaly made it to the cinema to watch the new Trek. I have mixed feelings about the film. While it took some time to get comfortable with the rebooting concept after reading the first reviews I actually like it. It took away the burdening canon/continuity problems of all the shows and movies...

I realy loved Space Above and Beyond. A pitty it was canceled after its first season. At least the episodes in space had a bit of wing commande feel to them.

Best: Empire Strikes Back Runner up: Starship Troopers and Aliens Worst: Battlefield Earth (Scientology at its worst *shudder*) Runner up: Star Trek 5
