Looking very good. Out of curiousity, what screen resolution is the site optimized for? I ask because I'm using 1280 x 1024 and it looks really small. The screenshots look very cool - people who haven't seen the beta should be very happy with them.

Its pretty much set that Titans of Steel Warring Suns will be available on June 16th, 2003.

That's not very long. I can hardly wait, though.

I'm trying to download that Flash banner to put on my site, but right click doesn't give me the option to save target as - all I get is things like zoom, rewind, loop, etc.
Any suggestions?

Oops, my bad, will fix that ASAP. If you need it quick you can do a quick search for the .SWF file in your browsers cache.

I saw on one of the other forum threads that some Matrix Games are showing up in stores as well as on the site to purchase. Is that something that is going to happen with Warring Suns, too?

By the way, the address given to link back to for the banner is incorrect. It's got only one "/" instead of two after the http:

I don't know but I will say that in my own opinion, this is the type of game that has much more "crossover" type of appeal than just your average "wargame".

Afterall the "MechWarrior" game line has been very successful. Much emphasis exists even in that game on outfitting your SINGLE mech. After awhile running around in them though I think your really DYING for the next level of "depth".

So even though I like those games Ive long since parted with them on Ebay and no longer buy the new addons. This game is to me the next logical step.

Not putting it in Retail stores seems like it would miss more of those types of potential players. There just aren't alot of games out there of the "mech" type so any real fan is bound to buy just about any related game regardless of any other factor.

A good game magazine review and a spot on gamespot.com does go a long way these days also though. Most frequent gamers use one method or another in addition to simple store "browsing".

BTW: NICE JOB on the graphics reworking. Hardly even looks like the same game I initially saw...

Looks like some good points to me. Can we get an official Matrix response? :D

Sweet! Even after I already have it, it'll be cool just to see it in a store, after having been involved in the game for so long.

Try it at www.titansofsteel.de - that one was working yesterday.

Edit: It's working right now, too. :)
