RC Dralthi Sets Sights on the Sky Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Joe Garrity posted this tantalizing shot of a foam core Dralthi model he's building with Chris Carpenter. It's not just an art project though - the goal is get it flying via remote radio control. Before that happens, the craft will need some structural reinforcement, a cool paintjob and the propelling motor installed. Then it'll be just like Secret Missions 2 again at Joe's house!

Shotglass.de noticed that Egosoft has announced another space sim, X Rebirth. It will be the fourth major game in the series that began in 1999 with X: Beyond the Frontier. The 'rebirth' moniker is intended to symbolize the game's new take on space action and economics. A release is expected as soon as late 2011. The first image below is a fancy wallpaper with a hint of Wing Commander style packed in. An announcement trailer has been posted that shows off some very pretty gameplay engine footage.
