So that's where the frog went!

For the past few months I haven't been around quite as much as usual. The reason being I've been working on Stardock's strategy game, Galactic Civilizations. Well it's finally nearly complete and Gamespot and Toms Hardware have recently done full blown previews of it as well as other websites and magazines.

Check out the preview at Gamespot by clicking on the link below!

Here is the link to Toms Hardware:
http://www.tomshardware.com/game/20030208/index.html

And the GalCiv home page is here:
https://www.galciv.com

The game will be released in mid March and be available at a store near you. It's available for pre-order from Amazon.com, EB, Gamestop, and elsewhere.

GalCiv's website was designed by Pixtudio and the artwork in the game was created by AlexG (one of the major DesktopX theme makers) and one of the ship models featured in full motion cut scene were done by Dangeruss.

Is there a way to only buy GalCiv and still play online without buying drengin.net?

From EB: not sure if theyre accurate

"System Requirements:
Minimum requirements: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP; PIII 600 MHz Processor or equivalent; 128 MB of RAM; DirectX 7.0; Compatible Video Card with 8 MB VRAM

Recommended requirements: Windows 98/ME/2000/XP; PIII 1000 MHz Processor or equivalent; 256 MB of RAM; DirectX 8.1; Compatible Video Card with 16 MB VRAM"

Gamespot dohas totally different system req, and also spells Stardock Wrong (isnt Strat First publishing this?):
"Publisher: Infogrames

"Required

Video Card: 4 MB Video Card

The game looks good, but I don't buy games without playing a demo, or renting it first.
