Re: So, how did you find out about SE?
 
See I was hanging out with some friends one day and I turned to one of them and said, "You know Aaron, you ought to write a computer game..." http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

No, seriously. Started with SEIII. Only shareware game I ever liked or played enough to actually buy. Played it a lot but only single player. Eventually drifted away for a year or so. Then one day I was dusting off the old games and found it again. Liked it the second time so I decided to see if he had ever come out with a new Version. Fortunatly for me that was just about the time that Shrapnel started shipping SEIV. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Did a search on gamespot forums for space strategy games, read a review, tried the SE3 demo and the rest is history.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I beg to pardon. We have not wasted our time on this game. Every minute we devote to this game is a well spent minute. Therefore, never do we waste time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif :P

Nice move, plugging SEIV on the Boards of competing games.

I read a review in PC Gamer, then got the demo. The rest, as they say, is history. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif
