Re: Stardock selling dominions
I only found out dominions existed by Brad Wardell writing about Dom3 going gold on the GC2 website and giving the game high praise.
So crossovers like this are good for both games. It would be good to see more. I bet loads of Civ players would love Dom3 but have never heard of it.
I too am looking forward to the upcoming TBS fantasy game by stardock and the new project that illwinter are putting together.

It's "just" a 20% off coupon for GamersFront.com, so you can stop looking
Btw, this is the first I've heard of the Stardock fantasy tbs. Sounds very promising

Re: Stardock selling dominions
This thread brings up a trend that I find disturbing. It is getting harder and harder to buy PC games in stores. For example, Best Buy used to have 4 aisles of PC games, now it's down to one. Electronic Boutique used to be almost 100% PC games, now it's maybe 5 %. Around me, the best selection of PC games is now available at Target, go figure. If nothing else, this introduces concern for the future of the PC game. This is accented by the fact that Civ 4 is still featured (in some minor fashion) in the stores around me despite the fact that it is a year old.
I'm old fashioned (and old) and like to touch and hold something before I buy it. Besides, if it weren't for the reviews (small but favorable) in the computer game magazines I get, there is probably no way I would have found Dom 3.
Just a minor rant.

Re: Stardock selling dominions
Fully agree with you, EB Games and Gamespot used to have huge walls of PC games, including older and bargain bin items.
Now they just have that tiny 5x5 of PC games.
My personal fave for bargain bin games is gogamer.com. 24 hour madness sales. I lost my fallout CD and they had the complete set for like 6.99. Lately the sales have been of much lesser quality though

Re: Stardock selling dominions
Yeah, I've been playing the demo, and just bought it yesterday, after debating the cost of the software, vs the graphics, and playability has won yet again.
I've yet to touch the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the depth of play and strategy.
I can't wait for the manual.
