I hadn't ever heard of that game. Just googled it, and 2 things steer me away: it's fairly old but more importantly it's an RTS, which I can't get into because I suck at RTS.

Ive still got a copy around the house somewhere here. Never could get it to play...the copy protection was so severe the Antivirus wouldnt let it play.

How about ParaWorld?

Heeyyyyyy I looked forward to that game, but then completely forgot to try it. I forgot it even existed.

EDIT: And look at that, doesn't exist on Steam or GOG. Tages was such a good idea too.

Hey guys, there's a fun little sandbox-sci fi title called Empyrion - Galactic Survival on sale on steam at 50% off (comes to $9.99).

I really have never gotten into any of these...by my youngest and I have been hooked on this title this weekend. It's EA, Alpha-stage stuff. I like that I can be fairly casual in it, or at least have been able to thus far...just don't shoot the triceratops with your pistol. He ran through three large trees trying to get me. Thankfully I got to my motorcycle first, went back to base and crafted an assault rifle.

I haven't made it off planet or even built a ship yet. I like the Red Faciton-like mineable environment features...voxel tech works well here.

For $10 I think it was well worth it at this stage...I haven't done MP yet and its not why I bought this title...might be fun for some of you, might be boring. So far...it's the first sandbox in a while that I have truly kept an interest in. If we could blend this title with Eden Star's gunplay (from videos I've seen at least) and movement...it'd be amazing.

But you start with a motorcycle and a jet pack, so mobility really isn't a huge deal.

But the big question, can you turn on the jetpack while ON the motorcycle for a really hairy ride?! :cool:

Kursah · Aug 22, 2016

No sadly, at least that I've been able to yet...but you can build hover craft. Small and large space vessels and cap ships.

Steam has the Witcher series on sale: http://store.steampowered.com/sale/the-witcher/

Interesting to note, for those who haven't played Witcher 3 yet, it will be 50 cents cheaper to wait for the Witcher 3 Game of the Year Edition on August 31st versus buying the base game and the DLC separately.

Humble Bundle Monthly is offering SOMA this month, awesome game. Not 100% on the details on the monthly service but it's definitely worth it for SOMA alone. I'm considering it just to support.

That's nasty, another underhanded method of luring people to Windows 10. :shadedshu:

And it is beta, so no, it is not free, you become beta tester...
