RE: Cost too much?

<t> IMO there is an accepted level for a new release game between £30-£40. Perhaps more for additional content/bumf in the packaging. Anything within that scope I will happily pay for a new release.<br/>

I worry when Matrix decides inflate a game's price such as BftB which went for £65 which ...

RE: Does anyone know any good Zeppelin simulator?

A Zepplin simulator would be fun. What I never understood was how they managed to successfully bomb London in WWI. Surely they were huge, flammable, slow targets that would have simple to shoot down...never quite understood how they could have been any real threat.

Yes, they look the same. However, the engine has been upgraded to support many new features including multiplayer and boarding actions to name the two biggies. And we've polished a lot for stability and speed. A lot of artwork has been ...

RE: Most Boring War-Movie

An Ungentlmanly Act was not really a war movie it was about the initial invasion but I wouldn't call it war film. It's more of a political drama. I thought it was pretty good.
