    I figure he pimps it enough, but hey he's a fellow bbs member who's also a regular, so I may as well give him his props. His takes are dumb, his basketball knowledge is miniscule, and his jokes are lame, but according to the industry and fans of the strategy-gaming genre, he's just put out a very good game in Conquest : Frontier Wars.

    The following article is from Gamespot.com, a highly regarded gaming site. The site gives his game an 8.2 rating and fans that reviewed the game on the site give it an 8.9. Congrats DaDakota; nice to see small companies and fellow CC.net'ers do well. :)

    Congradulations, DaDa. I don't know if you are Eric Peterson from the bio page, but if you are, you look just like Andy Richter!

    Thanks guys, we also got an Editor's choice award at IGNPC.

    http://pc.ign.com/reviews/10585.html


    The game is getting very good reviews, and the fan community seems to really like it.

    The best thing is the word of mouth has been great.

    4+ years, 7 million dollars later....FINALLY it comes out.

    I apprciate all the kind words, even the reneger comment Achebe....

    DaDakota

    Well, maybe not the reneger comment, but the rest are nice.

    :)

    Dean,

    Think of it this way, MS was funding us for most of that time, you think they wanted it on the MAC?

    :D
