The Best Concept for a Video Game |
|
 |
Thief - The Dark Project by Looking Glass Studios is by far the most unique experience I've had yet with technology!! Hide in shadows, confrontation is best avoided, kill only if necessary-What a fresh concept. And the intro alone is worth it. The game is unbelievable. Click on the logo for a great site dedicated to Thief. It's not the prettiest site but, there's lots of good links and content. |

I have a small collection of maybe 1500 Magic game cards (that's nothin' compared to my die hard friends). Aside from the addiction to the game itself, the artwork on the cards makes them worth collecting. |

The entwining stories behind the game are well thought out and a good read as well. An absolute must read for the Sci-Fi/Fantasy fan is The Brothers War by Jeff Grubb. I couldn't stop there myself. I read the whole Artifacts Cycle, The Thran, The Gathering Dark and am in the middle of Mercadian Masques. You're guaranteed obsessive suffering genuises, sentient forests (no not like The Wizard Of Oz), 'living' artifacts, super nasty, power hungry bad guys and abominations, 'Atlantian' style science, and of course...magic. |

Homeworld by local designers @ Relic. After only playing the demo you can tell it is wild! Combines military strategy, refreshing open space 3D world and camera motion. The best space game I've ever played. |
