Re: Oh This Just Ticks Me Off!
I have to agree.
Its sad, but Computer mags these days are cattering only to the cassual gamer, and occasionally to the hardcore RPGamer and FPShooter, but definitively not to Strategy or Tactical games/wargames/whatever.
I'm only interested in Strategy, and I haven't seen or heard of a mag that aims for this demographic group.
Maybe its too small to justify the investment?
The point is that people that play games like SE4 look for the latest news Online, not onpaper.
I would say that whatever the investment on ads may be, it should be Online, on gaming sites.
On the other hand, to contradict all the above, the first time I heard of this game was in Computer Game Magazine, when they sent us a demo CD with the Gold Demo for SE4, so there is not a clear cut of where the money works best for an 4X game like this one.
How about a poll in which every member of this forum can vote on where they heard first of SE4?
