Quite a few polycounters worked on this. I hope you enjoy it. I think it's the single player demo.

gauss

wink wink, nudge nudge...

but seriously, i know you and DH and Bird (and Bobo!) worked on this title and i really didn't think you could make it look better than when i saw it at Ensemble, but you did. this of course will be a juggernaut of a release when it drops, but even with that guarantee you guys work hard to stay on top.

XP only? Let me guess, some manager decided that's a good idea? And it'll be five seconds until that lockout is cracked?

sO umm for some unknown to god reason it won't play on my laptop... I have no idea why I get the "directx failed to initialize" or some such BS i looked through the troubleshooting in the readme and it said blah blah reinstall ur shit, so i did... didn't work, ended up playing it on a different computer which worked just fine... even tho its got even worse specs than my laptop...

I think I'll wait for the full game to come out to really make up my mind, but it did feel like an age game, which is kinda cool, and also kinda lame since u know its not like there hasn't been enough of those kinds of games already... ah well i think this demo needed some multiplayer. overall cool I guess, props to all who worked on it
