Called my local Gamestop this afternoon. Their computer says this title ships the 27th. Ahwell, so much for local. I'm going to place an order with EBgames.com, who finally lists the game as shipping (after changing the ship date numerous times), and see if it is finally available.

I played with the demo for about an hour. OMG it's boring. I kept hoping that I'd actually find something fun to do in it. I never did. It's a big yawn-fest.

Thanks... that was what I was looking for... I'll get the demo and give it a try.. It does sound like a good fun game (reminds me a little of Worms by reading about it)

Damn, I'm hoping this game has actually shipped. My roommates and I have been looking forward to it ever since I stumbled on the demo, probably here, in the early part of February.

Unfortunately, despite the game’s suppose release date in the end of February, shipment has been delayed 4-5 times since then. Oddly enough, the cause of delay for this little gem of a game was due to “malfunctioning copy protection”. This is according to an article I read on StrategyFirst.com (the publisher).

Now, while the article didn't say whether the copy protect. problem was stopping people with a legitimate discs from playing, or if the so called copy protection was not correctly preventing burned discs from playing, it has been torture waiting so long, with release dates pushed back week after week. It hasn’t helped knowing that these delays were caused not because the game needed some extra game tweaking, but because the copy protection was botched! : P

At any rate, I'm still very much looking forward to this game after having spent a weekend digging the demo. I liken it as a bit Dungeon Keeper, a bit The Sims, and a bit Creatures. All in all, it's an incredibly well done and entertaining title that is well worth downloading the demo.

how about engaging some brain cells and doing a search in the news archive? now there's a novel concept.

here's the demo: http://www.bluesnews.com/cgi-bin/board.pl?action=viewthread&threadid=32903

Well if Blue actually provided some links in this item %), maybe we could find the demo or more information or something...

Read a little about this game but haven't played the demo... anyone try it/have any opinions about it??
