    Running XP, unfortunately. I'm too poor to drop cash on Windows 7.

    Re: Shattered Horizon

    I played half of a round (i guess I joined late in the game) and I love it. I tell you what though, people who get vertigo should NEVER play this game. The absolute three dimensional control is astounding (for those of you that dont know, in the game, you can control not only your vertical and horizontal movement, but also pitch and yaw to suit the landscape). The first time you get in a firefight with someone who is standing upside down on a 45 degree platform, you'll know what i mean.

    Also, I love the fact that they got the space physics right. If you start moving, you keep moving until something stops you. Oh, and I recommend everyone who got this game (even though you'll probably die while doing it) shut down your suit and check out how eerie it feels. You can see people shooting, but you cant hear anything except your own breathing. Its pretty nifty.

    Agreed with everything Ferris said. I just finished about 2 hours of playing it, and had to stop because i was beginning to get dizzy.

    Just created a shattered horizon steam group so we can organize some games together.

    Re: Shattered Horizon

    So would you guys recommend it? I'm thinking of picking this one up but unsure as L4D2 is so close.

    That game is a super massive fail! You can't hear gun fire in space!!! How stupid. (14 yr old Nerd smirk.)

    Actually it looks hella fun.

    Re: Shattered Horizon

    It's super fun. It's one of those games where there is most certainly strength in numbers. If we got a group of TGers on TS and all grouped up in a server we'd be unstoppable! MUahahahahahaah!...
    You can also try being ninja and go all the way around the map behind enemy lines and melee people in the back. Let me tell you though, melee is like jousting in this game. You fly toward the enemy at 40 mph and hope that you hit the melee button at just the right time to catch them square in the back. haha

    Oh yeah, kevlar hacks too. I unloaded a full clip into his back last night and he turned around and one-shotted me. Cheater.

    The sound ingame is a audio simulation system,and it can go offline when your suit shuts down.It shuts down when EMP hits you or you do it manually to go stealth.WHen its offline your hud dissapears including ingame chat.The only sounds are bullets hitting your suit,breathing and heartbeat.Skip to 5:13 for the Shattered horizon part

    I was just making a joke playing off the stereotypical geek. If you could have heard the funny geek voice in my head as I wrote it you would have gotten it. And it was freakin' hilarious!
