February Games for Windows

January 11th, 2008 · 4 Comments

The new Games for Windows magazine has a long cover story about Demigod, the new I’m-not-quite-sure-what-it-is from Gas Powered Games. Lots of screenshots.

The key other story is the long feature on games that were delayed or canceled. In Jeff Green’s wrap-up of the problem ridden Rise and Fall: Civilizations at War, he mentions that Stainless Steel founder Rick Goodman is working on something new. No details. I contributed a brief summary of the delays associated with Matrix Games’ Empires in Arms. (Thanks guys, for letting me write about a game only your most discerning readers will be interested in.)

My PCGamer has not arrived yet, which is odd since they usually beat GfW by a week or so.

    I got my PC Gamer (the one about building a new PC) a week or so before my GFW mag. You sure you didn’t let your subscription lapse?

    If it makes you feel any better, I read the bit about Empires in Arms. ;)

    Just FYI, I too got PC Gamer.

    The PCG was in today’s mail. Funny how that happened.

    I totally forgot I did a review of Rise & Fall:

    No wonder I forget, since it was the definition of “meh.”

    And Sins of a Solar Empire does look good. A bit slow paced, but good. Great interface.
