Good post. Both this site and the fantastic mods you listed(haven't played PGG yet) IMO helped keep my interest and enthusiasm for space-sims alive when the genre looked all but dead and I don't doubt many others feel the same way. Even though there are big heavyweight space-sims like Elite...

Fantastic setup, really like what he did with Roccat Power-Grid and the Android tablet to add to immersion, the touch interface is beautiful. I think Oculus Rift will be more in my price range tho:)

Enslaved looks good I'll give it a try will pick it up next time I'm in Gamestop, keep me occupied while I'm waiting for Star Citizen and Elite to come out:)

Slightly off-topic again but if you have a Dreamcast this might interest you http://gdemu.wordpress.com/ its a GD-Rom drive replacement that lets you play GD-Rom dumps of your games off an SD card. The guy who makes them has stopped production for now, but he may do one final run of them. I'm...

Probably belongs in off topic but interesting thread! It's a nice list I'm a massive Dreamcast fan and loved Skies of Arcadia(both Dreamcast and Gamecube) and Grandia 2 both fantastic games better or at least up there with Final fantasy series also loved Broken Sword series. I would disagree...

I just wish they would do something different whether its WC branded or not. Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous are already filling the MMO Space-Sim market so they are too late to the party for that. If this was more single-player focused, with online co-op and traditional non-gimballed...

I really like the idea, its up to him to prove the durability of the cardboard setup and he says he is working on that.

Really interesting interview with Tony Zurovec and CR talking about Crusader, Loose Cannon and other things, great to see two incredibly talented developers collaborating on Star Citizen. I am glad to see him back in the games industry he really has a great passion for PC gaming.

Anyone else on multiplayer? Its bombing out a lot on me with a crash to desktop, but finding it an absolute blast to play. First killstreak and it crashed:( Dont think the missiles are that OP at all they are pretty easy to evade with chaff hopefully they will introduce a beeping tone for...

Heres a bit of footage I recorded from Vanduul swarm loaded with OP omnisky lasers in Hornet. Playing with an Ancient Top Gun Afterburner II HOTAS setup, I have to say the flight model has really grown on me great fun!

I noticed on todays Wingmans hangar that Tony Zurovec's name was mentioned as an ex Origin employee, however his name was spelt 'Zurovek' I really loved the Crusader series and believed he had left the games industry. Maybe someday we might see Crusader 3:) I would love to know if it is...

I bit the bullet and paid the extra for Elite premium beta (no patience), spaceflight feels really nice and works well with 360 controller on 3D TV. Really think this ones going to be a winner and SC dogfighting module only around the corner too its a good time to be a space-sim fan!

Part of the reason grey market exists is because ships like the Scythe(had the opportunity to get one but missed the boat) and Idris Corvette are limited in number and also came with Lifetime Insurance (LTI). It is not clear whether a captured Scythe will be insurable in game so it is a quite a...

I'm lucky in Ireland so got to watch it on Netflix only available in SD though. Great to see CR get movie rights back in 2015. I'm betting he will be super busy with Star Citizen for a while due to its enormous scope, but hopefully he can find the time to make the movie too!
