wow what an amazing game. i only recently got this from a friend whos been telling me to try it for ages but seeing as i'd never heard of it i thought it was probably pants. boy was i wrong, this game is just so great, its original, funny, visually superb even on my steam powered hunk of junk pc, which is another plus. it was made by shiny entertainment, poor buggers they've made about 3 or 4 great games that have sold next to nothing, so help them out and buy this :)
next week, giants : citizen kabuto :D
It has indeed had some excellent reviews, nearly all commenting on its visual exquisiteness. If you're into RTS games then go for it....
The reason it runs well on your POS PC :wink: is that is was written in 2000 for a 2001 release and designed to run on a GF2 and anything faster than a Pentium II 300MHz PC 8O So most PCs can run it without even having to pause for breath......

Giants! now theres a fun game....
Single player is very funny! cockney space marines have got to be the best charicters in a game ever :D. Its quite a strange game tho, starts off like any other third person blaster, then moves on to making bases and becomes a bit of a stratagy game!
Multiplayer is a laff but never really took off :( Quite difficult to get the hang of which didnt help, and the only servers that were ever up were american!
sacrifice is kind of an rts, as your units often do a lot of the work. later on though its a different story, as your wizard gets more powerful spells which are spectacularly destructive, you can create giant craters, cause massive volcanic eruptions, conjure up cyclones and even cause 100foot vines to sprout from the ground and mess up your opponents. the best spell of all though, is one given to you by the god of earth called james, who is a huge earthworm ( can you spot the link? :) ) this spell in particular launches a huge cow at the enemy and is appropriately called bovine intervention . oh shiny where do you get your ideas ? :D

Yep, superb, the humor is great. All this "cheers mate" banter, funny looking characters etc... and only £4.99, budget, for anything up to windows XP. Recommended :!:
Don't forget their game Messiah. You get to be a flying baby angel and save the world and stuff. Sureal.
