This is just a technical vid, there are other, better, intro videos but i thought this one showed the gameplay nicely.
Looks Kinda Amazing Right? I haven't seen fighting that look anything close. The colision is 100% 1:1 and the procedural animation is as good as third party software (aka GTA 4 & RDR's 'Euporia'). Also the way he just out of the blue decides to throw the knife suggests a great deal of depth. Also it's giant bunny rabbits

Looks sick right?

I'm currently playing From Dust, cost me £12, can be less if bought from steam while it is on offer, and have so far put 5 hours of game time into it, and am about 1/2 way through the main story, not including the 25 challenge maps I haven't yet done.

Ah Hawken. They are making semi significant waves with it's development, as it is only being made by five people whom have never had to Crunch Time. Though that's because they cheat!
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.

Try looking into the Humble Bundles. Every one usually has 4-6 indie games that you buy at whatever price you want. Some of them are kinda eh, but hey, at 5 games for what could literally be one cent...
I think my favorite indie game (if it can still be called that, given how much money it's made) is Minecraft. I've played around with that game for hours at a time. It's so easy to just get lost building or mining and wind up playing from midnight to 6 AM.

Euphoria in rockstar games was ridiculously bad engine. Ugly as feth and laggy as gak. GTA4 made me swear to never buy a rockstar pruduct again.

Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.
If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in.

Planetside 2 is a MMOFPS so, yes, it will be online only.

The prefect example of someone missing the point.
Do not underestimate the Squats. They survived for millenia cut off from the Imperium and assailed on all sides. Their determination and resilience is an example to us all.

Its just a shame that they couldn't fight off Andy Chambers.
