Since tomorrow is Origin day, I have come to realize that there is a hole in my fleet that needs filling. I don't have a E-warfare ship. Sure, I have the Herald, but that's an info runner. What I am looking at, is a ship designed to fuck with electronics. I'm talking about the Sentinel and...

I saw this on the RSI forums and figured I would bring it over here. I plan on using it for some cheap christmas presents. Last year, these were limited to 1,000 per day. No word yet as to how this year will play out. I guess we'll see soon enough. View...

So some of my favorite racing games have been in a genre that rarely pokes it's head out. It all started with F-Zero. I loved it. The super fast, futuristic style had my head reeling. In alot of ways, I have been searching for that feeling again ever since. There have been other games like...

So, a thought came to me today while lurking in various forums. They just threw the super hornet on sale. A fairly large chunk of a sale honestly. It's not that big of a discount for each ship, but when you look at the larger CIG scale, it becomes a huge loss of income. $20 per ship isn't...

There was a conversation going on over on the RSI forums and it really got me thinking in a different way. Since I really like things that make my brain work harder, I figured I would bring it over here too. The conversation was about time in SC. Would they have local times, or universal...

I have quite a few art styles that I really enjoy. My tastes in art, just as in music, are incredibly diverse. Some I like more than others, but I can appreciate a good piece of art. One of the styles I like, as I recently found out, has a particular name. It's retrofuturism. I'm not quite...

So I am fully confidant that CIG can deliver and exceed my personal expectations. The scope of this game expands beyond my imaginations and renews my faith in the future of gaming. I could delve further into my beliefs, but that's not the point. The whole point of this thread is appreciation...

So I watched the episode and there were a few things that stood out to me. I don't want to delve too much into psychology, but I can't help myself sometimes. I have a pretty deep background into reading body language and interpersonal interaction so a few things really stood out to me. They...

So there's this thing that has been bugging me for a while now. It's the issue with ballistic weapons and laser weapons. Several times now, I have run into a situation while running a laser loadout on my ships. Out in the PU, I usually run an all energy loadout so I don't have to jump back...

http://www.nintendo.com/nes-classic Just in case you wanted a bit of nostalgia. My wife has been informed that she will be purchasing this for me as a Christmas present. She then got upset with me because I spoiled her surprise. I guess she was already planning on it. My wife is amazing...

As I have written before, I absolutely love the dual joystick setup. I am currently running two T16000 sticks and they work flawlessly. That being said, there are better joysticks out there. Namely one, the Warthog. I have had the opportunity to use one before and I really liked it. It is...

As I was watching Wing Commander, there were some correlations that stood out. It got me thinking and more to the point, doing research. As many of you know, Chris Roberts directed the Wing Commander movie. He has also had a very long list of video games under his belt. Looking back at the...

So have found myself thinking about this off and on since I started in on SC. There are various mechanics in-game and in the future that make me seriously wonder how the "time to kill" will play out in the release version. In-game right now, they have shield management. For the future they...

I have been a gamer for a very, very long time. So I routinely keep track of new games and am constantly hunting for a new internet home (so to speak). I like settling into one game for a while rather than playing a bunch of them simultaneously. I like learning about that game and feeling...

Honestly, have you guys seen this monster? Almost every single scifi space ship all lovingly labeled and sized next to each other so they can compare... themselves. I fully intend on taking the full version file to a print shop tomorrow and have it printed for my game room. The full version...

And I love it! I am just sorry it took so long to try. It is so easy to dodge everything. Your ship becomes a rapier instead of a meat cleaver. It's possible to do the same thing on a HOTAS, but it is soooo much easier with two joysticks. I am almost never going in a straight line now. In...

Good morning/afternoon/evening. As a bit of history, I have been playing since forever. I built my first computer about a quarter century ago before I was even a teenager. It has been a gamer life for me ever since. To offer an idea about my age, I am still bitter and angry about battletoads...
