Hah, I have to get this, if only for the name! :P

Plus it reminds me of a game I had a demo of on the Playstation. It think you played as a robot rabbit, and all of your weapons were fireworks..?

EDIT: Jumping Flash! That's what it was called. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumping_Flash! [External Link]

Quoting: Hamish

Quoting: Maquis196Whats the consensus here? People love/hate Civ5?

My brother still thinks that the original Civilization is the definitive version

I approve!

Nothing beats the Amiga version.

a dating and farming simulation game, yup those two genres have actually been merged

Haven't you played the Harvest Moon series? Oh man, you're missing out!

Rune Factory (a spin off) took it a step further and shoehorned dungeons, monsters, magic and crafting in too!

I'm afraid this looks like a subpar flash game that wouldn't be out of place on a early 2000's free online game site. I don't think I'll be paying $20 for this.

Also worth noting that OpenXcom is fast approaching v1.0: http://openxcom.org/ [External Link]

This is shaping up to be the year of tactical alien-warfare simulators. :woot:

Isn't the Arse Technica article just another poorly veiled attempt to scare as many people away from Linux as possible? In their opinion, gaming on Linux is a stupid idea and will never take off, so nobody should even consider it and should just use Windows instead. :|

Quoting: Xpanderahh i get it what you mean... moving keys/buttons physicaly?

Yeah, some keyboard manufacturers lock down the "home" keys (F & J) by using a different key slot, so I usually end up physically modifying those keys, as well as the keys that will be in their place (U & H). It's a lot of effort and makes me wary of changing keyboards unless absolutely necessary.

I love glowy keyboards so I'll probably pick up this model (or similar) when this Logitech G110 finally gives up the ghost.

Thanks for confirming. :)

Can you confirm whether the keys are interchangable? I.e. could I move them about into a different layout (Dvorak)? I emailed Roccat about it, who said this is the case (although the model I was enquiring about had a curved surface, so the keys weren't a standard height), but it'd be nice to hear it first hand from an owner.
