It does look fun, but then again all the shooters are fun, save CS:S and and the hitbox crap.

lol agreed 100%

A friend told me about CS:s and got me to try it as he raved about it. I have never been so disappointed in a game, ever. Commadore64/vic20 game graphics and sounds.

The free floating looks awesome, the ability to use a jet back to change direction, flip upside down to walk on surfaces. That and the ( i know it sounds sick) bodies that are floating around - that coupled with the bodies that float away when shot. Insane lol

As far as I know this game is on steam for $20. I dont use steam so I would have to go pick this up - release date is tomorrow.

From Wikipedia
"The development is self funded."

We'll see if it's a DX11 game or not, then we'll know who "helped" in the development.

LOL nice one Steve-O.

it does give an opening credit to Futuremark. I believe its team green who had a say in this game. I could care less tho. It looks fun

Only if it looks alright on ATi hardware, TWIMTBP usually has a way of borking team Red. I'll be getting it via other means than steam though.

The raid on moondust map shows how two players walk upside down and right side up together - looks fun

Looks like I gotta get the heck off of xp on my gaming rig. I will do that up after the move @ weeks end to win7 - then pop in my 2nd 4870 and pop in another 2 gigs of 1066.

jeez. I have to upgrade to play this. just as well.

Why stop at 4GB when 8GB is twice the price

Hali_Newf · **Posted:** Tue Nov 03, 2009 1:26 pm

LOL

4 is enuff for my use. No need to be wasteful. I wanna play that game, not going to go to vista so win 7 after I move in to the new place. Then more ram soon thereafter. damn tho, no winxp support. guess thats something we are going to be seeing alot of soon.

Is there deficiencies in using paypal or are they charging an arm and a leg for transactions?
