I love the internet.

Agreed, and Homeworld 2's odd reliance on the rock-paper-scissors-starship mechanics. I remember starting a level with an impressive fleet that had trounced pirates previously, only to lose it all within seconds because it wasn't the correct 'counter' for what I was fighting.

Not at all. I thought you got a much larger speed discrepancy between objects until the point where they were all lethal. This is why I am here eating my lunch and not currently in space :)

Fair enough, I am now educated :D

I have a very crude understanding of physics (LOL LASERS ARE COOL) but wouldn't that debris be moving at something like 20000 mph? As in, the smallest pieces would puree them?

Cataclysm is excellent, a real shame that they couldn't give it the same treatment. I actually preferred it to Homeworld 2, shock horror.

I made a generic middle-class person in their late twenties then armed them with an assault rifle and elemental magic. I found the juxtaposition amusing. It's just a shame the game itself is flawed.

Excellent, although it's a shame about the missed opportunity for some cross-class nonsense. That's one thing The Secret World got right.

I'm getting a vague sense of Fallout 2 from this, and that's A Good Thing. I'm going to go with a tech character, as you can recruit NPC's of the other classes as backup anyway, right?

I'd say yes, but the main game with the DLC basically means you won't venture outside for days and days. Just remember that. But yeah, it's good, even if your character is a Fallout-style mute.

That would have taken time to research and build, but there was the crashed scout ship still about. I suppose he could have crippled Zod in some fashion to keep him still for the time it took. It was always the sun; the atmosphere here is richer and gave him more stamina, which the others adapted to eventually as…

In the wider DC Universe, I would agree with you wholeheartedly, but in the self-contained universe of the film, I'm not sure there was one. With the narrative direction they went for, Zod was either going to:

*SPOILERS FOR MAN OF STEEL*

Haha, the cat warfare one made me chuckle. Everyone, including my daughter, turned and looked at me like I'm an infant. It was worth it though.

Ah, EVE. I read this articles about the grandeur of space battles, others about how the universe is crammed full of intricate political machinations, and all I can think is how some dickhead blew up my low-level frigate for no reason other than he could. It took me hours to afford that.

Nuclear hand grenade. That is all.

I did used to enjoy ambushing the aliens in a hail of disruptor fire, something that only happens in bursts when its turn by turn. There used to be an excellent little DOS editor for TFTD that allowed you to fix anything that became corrupted. I think it was the only way I ever got to the end without the whole damn…

I have to admit, I loved Apocalypse. The micromanagement of avoiding alien cult influence made it a race for influence. The real time stuff was fine with me; I think too many attempts trying to finish Terror From the Deep and getting shafted by Tentaculats in a single turn numbed me to the turn-based style.

Hooray, more Deus Ex! I have missed being half-arsed stealthy, slipping up and scrabbling behind every potted plant to avoid death. Hmm.

But he's not wearing pants.
