Stargamer.Net My Destination (August 8, 2006)

[Bandit LOAF]

Despite Electronic Arts' apparent position on Wing Commander, space games are making a comeback -- games like X, Eve, Darkstar One and the like are showing up with more and more frequency from smaller development houses. Now Richard Shoemaker and Martin Ellis are taking advantage of that fact to do something someone should have done a long time: build a space game portal site. Stargamer.net is now available! They say: "the site... will provide industry and community news, reviews of games, mods and remakes and interviews with developers of classic and contemporary titles. We will start with a review of Empire At War, previews of Darkstar One and Sword Of The Stars and an interview with the leader of the Battlestar Galactic: Fleet Command mod for Homeworld 2. ...Not a great deal of content to begin with, admittedly, but from tiny bolts giant battlecruisers are built, or so they say." Sounds like just what we need -- better move over, A Talent For War!

.....better move over, A Talent For War!

Hehe - that's fighting talk! I was a big fan of ATFW back in the day, so much so that SGN is very much inspired by it. I tried to contact some old and 'current' ATFW staff to see if they would be interested in contributing, but heard no reply (probably because the contact details I had are no longer active.) Anyway, if we can be half as good as ATFW was, I'll be more than happy. It's gonna take a while though.

Richie, SGN

Hope the site is popular and inspires new Space Combat games!
