Your link is fail.

And Iunno. It sounds interesting but the prospect of a single game taking up to a 1/3 of a whole day doesn't sound fun.

Demo. http://files.filefront.com/Sins+of+a+So ... einfo.html
We only get 90 minutes it seems. Doesn't sound like much, considering how games last longer than some people sleep.

After playing around in the demo, I realized that the 90 minute restriction is for each match. So it's much more reasonable than I first thought.

Anyway it's pretty fun. With the summer looming on the horizon I might consider buying this, altho the $45 is hefty.

Although I might get Bullet Candy first. It's only 4 bucks off Steam (off the maker's website its 10 bucks, wtf?) for some of the most addictive gameplay I've ever seen.

It supposedly says 30 minutes of demo, but after that if you start it up again you get another 2 minutes. Every time it hits 0 and you start it up it resets to 2 minutes. I think it's a bug, since the maker's website and Steam both don't have it (I think took it down).

Anyway I feel like I'm talking to myself. Lep did you ever get the demo or buy the game?

Yehs I bought the game. Kinda the same problem I'm having with Age of Conan right now. It's not bad... but nobody I know plays it. ;..;

Playing 6 hour games is fine by me, but preferably with peoples I actually know.

You're not willing to play a 6-hour RTS, yet you'll play a game which requires much more than 6 hours of grinding for you to be competitive?

And by much more, I mean orders of magnitude.

Anyway, I'll probably be getting Sins, looks fun.

:O

Uh.... it takes a few months of leveling up alone for you to even THINK about fighting other players. And you can't speed it up because its time based leveling.

SO!

I bought it and played my first single player game, *very* fun.

Kol battleship r rig, imo.

Very fun game, I'll be playing it often I think. Phase jumping a massive battlefleet and seeing them all pop in is very satisfying.

Eve looks appealing for the first week, and the second. And the third. Then you get a nice ship, and some company decides to raep you because you flew through their sector unknowingly, transporting some goods. Great fun.
