Lets face it, the chances of us getting a new X-Wing VS Tie-Fighter game is slim to non. But have no fear my friends, as Nine Dots Studio are working on a squad based, competitive, space combat simulator. This is a game where you customize a ship, and then you and your squad go out there, shoot down enemy ships, and attempt to blow up their carrier. Seriously, check out some early footage of that dogfighting action below.

And just to show off how far this talented studio has come, here is the video they were showing off at PAX (along with being able to play the beta) I gotta say, I played a bit of this at PAX myself, and I was highly impressed, the game plays great, it looks fantastic, and really managed to scratch that space combat itch that has been SORELY missing in the gaming landscape of late.

Now if you think that this is something you are interested in playing, I urge you to get over to their Kickstarter HERE, and help them reach their goal. They have less then 48 hours left, and so if you have been yearning for a new X-Wing VS Tie Fighter, get in there and help em out, as this is definitely the closest you are gunna get, at least for now.

galactic-civilizations-3 ship

The sequel to Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords, Galactic Civilizations 3 is going to be a 64-bit PC exclusive, being make by Stardock. Kind if like a Civilization game set in space, Galactic Civilizations are huge, turn-based strategy games. This new one promises to be a huge leap forward, not only in the visual department, but also in the gameplay department as well. With new multiplayer, diplomacy, and many different terrain changes, this is looking to be one very large game.

By going 64-bit only, Stardock states “We want Galactic Civilizations III, and future expansions, to be able to handle extremely large galaxies with a very high resolution graphics and large data sets for the computer AI to make use of. It allows us to design the best game possible without being constrained by the limitations of older hardware.”

Take a look at the Trailer below

It is still very early in development, so no release date has been announced, But Stardock does have a founders program in place that allows you access to the beta, as well as some other perks if you invest 10$ now. You can get more info on the game as well as the founders program from their website.

Watch Dogs Delayed On All Platforms Until Spring 2014

Watch_Dogs

Today in a blog post, Ubisoft has announced that Watch Dogs has been delayed until spring 2014 for all platforms. No specific date has been given for the game in the spring as of yet. I am a little surprised that such a huge game would be getting pushed back so close to release.

At PAX they were not allowing hands on time with the game, and maybe that should have been a sign that it needed a bit more time. Or maybe Ubisoft realized that having Watch Dogs come out alongside Assassins Creed 4 would not be good for sales of either title and felt that moving the releases apart would be a better plan. I am just speculating here, but it is very curious to have a title so close launch get moved like this. You can read Ubisoft’s full Blog message below.

Our ambition from the start with Watch Dogs has been to deliver something that embodies what we wanted to see in the next-generation of gaming. It is with this in mind that we’ve made the tough decision to delay the release until spring 2014.

We know a lot of you are probably wondering: Why now? We struggled with whether we would delay the game. But from the beginning, we have adopted the attitude that we will not compromise on quality. As we got closer to release, as all the pieces of the puzzle were falling into place in our last push before completion, it became clear to us that we needed to take the extra time to polish and fine tune each detail so we can deliver a truly memorable and exceptional experience.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you. We thoroughly enjoy and appreciate the way you respond on the web, at events, press conferences and other opportunities we have to interact. Your passion keeps us motivated.

We can’t wait to see you in Chicago next spring. We are confident you’ll love this game as much as we love working on it.

We will keep you guys posted about when the new release date is when we receive it.
