    The new landing page looks great, visually fantastic! Sort of reminds me of Blizzard's game product websites.

    first of all, great job - the website is very professional looking and the art is sexy as hell.

    as i was looking at it, there were some things i thought could work a little better -
    1) default the trailer vids to at least 720p quality.
    2) make all the scrollbars with multimedia (screenshots, vids) pop out in a window like the 'watch trailer' and tutorial buttons, and make those default to 720p too.
    3) system requirement listings - would look clearer by just listing windows xp/vista/7, if you need to make it clear that you support both 32 and 64 bit OS's put it at the end. people who are looking at the minimum requirements want to see clearly and quickly what the bare minimum is, the way that it's worded is cluttered.
    4) the icons for the individual lifeforms aren't immediately obvious that they link to the tutorial videos - i only discovered this by accidentally mousing over one. perhaps give them a more striking border? or pair them with a simple pixel art icon? also, could be made more intriguing by lining up all the alien icons on one side and giving the marine one a slight separation.
    5) indie booth: the movie has a malformed youtube link, doesn't play the video.

    So we are getting dynamic infestation. The requirements looks incredibly now compared to what they are now. You guys must be confident in them.

    Generally speaking thats always good idea.

    BUT.... and I'm sure Charlie would agree with me

    It's good to be the KING!

    I'm getting an unformatted page with no media:
    <img src="http://i.imgur.com/le0Zl.png" border="0" class="linked-image" />
    If I view the source and click the link to the CSS from there, the link works, but the page doesn't use it.

    "About -> Game Media" seems broken on the <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/ns2/about/" target="_blank">full site</a>. It brings up this link:
    <a href="http://www.naturalselection2.com/wp-signup.php?new=unknownworlds.wpengine.com" target="_blank">http://www.naturalselection2.com/wp-signup...ds.wpengine.com</a>

    Which looks like this for me:

    For some reason the youtube videos lag a lot when I watch trailers near the top half of the page, and butter smooth when I scroll down to the bottom half. Maybe it's due to that mist/gas animation in the background?

    I get the same effect as well.

    Though in the back of my mind, I know this happens on other sites as well.

    Yep, flash is most likely the culprit there. Even more so if you are browsing on OS X.

    If the background visual effects could be replaced with HTML5/JS, that would significantly improve performance but affect backwards compatibility with old browsers. Then again, IE6/IE7 users may not be NS's target demographic anyways.
