Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Jan 16, 2002 5:19pm PSTGenerally this time of year is pretty quiet as far as big game releases go but it appears we've got quite a few on the way which is a nice change of pace. Really looking forward to SoF2, Jedi Knight2, and Medal of Honor which all seem like they are in the home stretch. I'm sure at least one of them will get delayed as is always the case. Oh.. stuff:
- Looks like shoppers are being studied. - A fox is loose in Supreme Court. - Sex is good for the heart, obviously. - That shoe bomber has more charges coming at him. - I'm gonna watch Groundhog Day again. Oh, here's a story about the security. - The government is lobbying for November 31st!Lastly, a startling discovery! Beat a mouse a bunch and it has a hard time remembering.

If I need a good laugh, serious discussion and the best damn gaming news around I visit the Shack and only the Shack. Thanks for adding a little spice to my life.
And yes, this is a serious post.

The gameplay is fun as hell, mix between Magic the Gathering and Masters of Magic. The graphics/art/style/animations are fucking unbelievable, it's the first game I've ever seen where it is in many places almost impossible to see the division between the 2d and the 3d art (both of which are often awe-inspiring, imo)
I think the only low point of the game is the Vitals/Kinets voice acting for the mission briefings, heh. The bad guys sound alright, but the good guys = worst voice acting ever. That's really odd considering how superb the sounds and voices are within the actual game.
Right now multiplayer has gspy support and you can edit your char (up to 64 heroes [4 races] to choose from, 300 spells, 150 monsters, etc) and duel against people. They are going to add tactical wars in a patch as well as a map editor to make mp tactical maps (not duel arenas). The people who made the game are holding online tournaments already and they've already released 2 new maps.
Anyway, here are some screenshots and links :p

The Captain started, his breath was still.
Slowly... he turned.
From behind the edge of the windowsill
there appeared the delicate hand of a child.
His face was flushed and timid.
He stared at the Captain through frightened eyes.
The Captain reached for something to hold onto.
"Help me," he whispered as he rose slowly to his feet.
The boy's face went pale. He recognized the sound.
Silently he pulled down the shade against the shadow, lost in the doorstep of the empty house.
"I'm trying to find my way home. I'm sorry.
I miss you."
