I feel like I got tricked into paying $49 bucks for a game of "Pong". A.L.I.V.E. - must be a buzzword some marketing guy thought up. I'm glad I decided to do my own market research, and not just listen to the hype. Yeah, they have this idea in the game where you need to speak commands and stuff, but its hardly the most revolutinary breakthrough to even hit the gaming world. I am still happy about long term prospects and am holding all my shares. I'm sure GTIS won't bother to put the other 4 planned sequels to OddWorld out on the PC platform, after they fall on their face with this one. JV.

>>>When i got the unreal demo last week i was curious to see the difference from duke. When quake came out it wasn't that much better than doom. I saw unreal on a 266 pentium II, so i don't know how it will look on a regualr machine, but let me tell you --- WOW! I bet Unreal will raise quite a few eyebrows. the game should do very well and the engine could add a lot to GTIS's credibility.<<< NEC PowerVR support for UNREAL. Also the Sega Dureal sp? will use the PowerVR. Can you say natural progression! Can you say lots of low cost PCs = lots of SW sales. biz.yahoo.com cl
