Post by CDN_Merlin »

Checked their link today and it's some non-english site probably saying that site is not there anymore.

He could be temporarily redirecting his site to work on it or something. The domain name isn't available to buy.

Maybe I'm cynical about this, but I think it's gone. Poof, like every other \"Great 6DoF Hype\".

Maybe he has the same publisher as DEEP6

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.

Site's back up - obviously just a temporary outage.

BTW, IGN is wrong - the publisher is Keen Software House (www.keenswh.com)




EDIT: Yep, DNS issues with their ISP...

Well thank you for that information Ferno, I'm overjoyed to know that your pet company went from making Guinea Pig games for Consoles to Deep Space mining on a PC, it puts me at ease to know that most likely a Joystick is out of the question

This is intentional post because it attracts the flies of this board, and no doubt Ferno will continue being a jerk since he can not harass MD anymore

The point I was making (and I'm sure that everyone with a brain understood) was the fact that they're already an established game company.


Or did you get your info from Yahoo Answers?

UPDATE: There's a new miner wars video featuring giant asteroids with multiple ships flying round it. Looks awsome.

I am getting seriously excited about this game ! :P

Yes Miner Wars looks to be a great game. I'm awaiting it anxiously.
It's never good to wake up in the shrubs naked, you either got way too drunk, or your azz is a werewolf.
