    Interesting fact!

    This page:
    <a href="http://www.naturalselection2.com/download" target="_blank">http://www.naturalselection2.com/download</a>

    Now says:
    <b>"Download Pre-Alpha Spark tools and Engine Test"</b>

    Hhhmmm.... Makes me think the engine test will get pushed out through the auto-updater built into the tools?

    Just a thought...

    Yes they are, if you did not happen to have an 8 series already. I find it best to at least skip one generation of video cards, although the 8800GTS was good enough to last me to last month when I decided to pick up a ATI HD5770 1GB. Games where starting to drop in quality setting, still playable, and once I switched over to the new card it was right back up to max settings.

    Just to let you guys know. It's 12:28 PM for the developers. It will be Saturday before some of you see a release.

    Was the flagship when it hit the market the GTX and not the GTS? I have the exact same model you have listed there, but it was long enough ago that I don't remember.

    It still is a great card. I do have a third monitor hooked up to it, and know if I really wanted to, I could put another one on it, it just getting that many monitors on a desk tends to get a little tricky.

    I really liked FF8. I thought it was revolutionary that it ditched the jrpg style the series was known for and made it completely a card game.

    Indeed, the NS theme music is one of the most successful game theme musics I've seen so far.

    why are people always so rude and impatient when waiting for an alpha or beta to release? they said today, they didn't give a time, who fking cares if you have been waiting all day.. go outside and do something.

    im waiting for the following game bashing critics... at least 30% of the people who have mentioned something like "wow i guess its not gonna release until 1am!!!" are gonna come back on here after testing for an hour saying "THIS GAME SUCKS.. WHAT IS THIS"

    I was just about to post the same thing. Probably should implement some sort of post restrictions for new members as this is getting a bit ridiculous.
