Star Control sequel possibility in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

The original company behind star control 1 and 2, ToysForbob is considering making a true sequel as the third one made wasn't by them. Right now they need proof from the fans that they want a sequel to present to their publisher. Here's the link: http://www.toysforbob.com/database/tfb_news.html I already sent them an email, since Star Control2 is

great power supplies? in Personal Computing Stardock Forums

I'm still getting my computer together, the only part left is to buy the processor, but I've noticed something unnerving, my enermax 600v noise taker that I bought, has been removed from zip zoom and new egg for reasons I don't know. And there has been reports about how unreliable it is. I need a power supply that is 600v or better, SLI, and isn't super loud. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Reply to Drivers, and why we should not be forced to update them in Galactic Civilizations II Stardock Forums

I'm in that camp too, I'm a gamer first computer expert a distent 6th. I really hate messing around with files or hardware as it never really works out for me. I've updated my video card drivers a few times and each time I'm sweating bullets hoping I don't destroy something. The instructions seem to become more confusing with each update Ati puts out. A game I bought awhile ago would not run in my cd drive, so the company su

Yeah I'll have to agree with that, if I see one more bejeweled or luxor clone I'm going to scream.

Reply to Why is my computer running so slow? in Windows XP Stardock Forums

I've had random cases where my computer slowed down for no reason. Try this, when did this start happening? If you have a system restore point before the slowdown began, run it this has fixed my slowdown each time. I saved one restore point from feb when I know the computer was running fine and I have some throughout each month. If you don't you may want to try repairing windows.

I would love to see some puzzle lab games on TGN. I enjoyed their mossaic games. There was one just released not sure if it's from puzzle lab, but it had an egyptian theme to it. Also will you guys please get Oasis and/or Wix and the fable of souls. I already own Wix from reflexive, but hopefully if enough people buy it they're make a sequel. Oasis was a very plesantly supprised game I played which was fun. Two more choices from me then

Huh, I though EA bought the rights to it and is publishing their new game Crysis? Also I always though Cryteam was based in croatia, or I might be thinking of the serious sam team.

Reply to Save Heroes of Might & Magic AGAIN! in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

If I can resist playing space rangers 2, because of star force even if it is a game based in one of my favorite genres, I can easily resist a game like HOMM5 because of starforce. If the game dies in the store because of starforce then it really is no skin off of my but if the series dies again because of an easily corrected issue. Until publishers and developers get rid of this guilty until proven innocent paranoia with their users, they're goin

Reply to Really hate CD copy protection today in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

What game was it, just asking? I've had numerous problems with dvd games from EA, as well the dvd edition of the movies. I've said it before and I'll say it again, CP should move away from the cd and more thru the company. Similar to how Stardock registers the games thru SDC that way pirated copies can't get updates and such.

Reply to At the mercy of reviewers in GalCiv Journals Stardock Forums

I recentily got the new issue of game informer, main review gave it a 8, second opinion gave it a 7. Strange is that in the description of the game, they said a great 4x strategy game that could give Civ4 a run for it's money or something to that effect. They did say alot of the gameplay felt like all they were doing was hiting the next turn button.

Reply to Recommending game - 'Children of the Nile' in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

I have the game, and even got into the beta for it. The game is a city builder with more defined goals, the problem is that the interface could have used alot more work. Your going to find people getting pissed off at you for reasons either you fixed, or you didn't know about. I'm a sucker for egyptian architecture, and building a pyramid was really great. I never got far into the game though, as it did take forever to get a city going. I did love p

Reply to Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Initial Impressions in PC Gaming Stardock Forums

I played morrowind and loved it, but never finshed it, as the lack of infomation about quests did me in. Chances are Oblivion is going to be the first game bought once I get my new computer finshed. How is the combat system compared to Morrowind.

Reply to Firaxis & 2K Games Trifecta in Game News Stardock Forums

I really don't know what to make of the 3 games. I'm not a huge fan of the combat system in Civ4, but the new resources and stuff sound good. For the railroad game, I only tried the demo of RT2 and it was decent. Civcity sounds like they're trying to compete with Tilted Mill who are doing Caesar 4. Also I don't trust Firefly studios anymore after the horror that was stronghold 2. And when will they mak

I played the 2nd one and completely hated it. The game felt too linear and alot of the feeling of being a god was lost. Graphically it rocked, but it was also pretty buggy when released.

They're pretty much the same, but Ds2 has a deeper skill tree and more quests. Who owned the rights to Ds2 before 2kgames?

Nope I have the movies download, I get the in game movies, like constructing your first starbase, exploring an anomlie, etc. It's just that in the last beta version I usually saw the wire frame image of the tech on the gnn screen in the monitor behind the robot, now not anymore.

Any word on the CTD when exiting the game? Also I posted yesterday about not seeing the tech images on the gnn screen after researching a tech, is that a bug or a problem with my computer?
