It almost looks like Alliance is going further back to the roots of UFO, with the types of aliens, the atomsphere and details like in one of the screenshots where there is an alien room with an "egyptian" pyramid with an alien sphinx head on it :-) and then the rooms with the alien fetuses in the green waterish glas jars :-) Man I hope you can blow those apart... dead aliens leave their weapons behind, like in the three first X-Com games :-) And the graphics are incredible to boost... if there was ever a first-person shooter to get, this is it! And I'm no huge fan of FPS's... sadly I barely have the hardware to run any new games these days and no 3d accelerator so I'm screwed, but it's gonna be fun to watch :-\ -- In the entire world, only two countries are ruled by priests. Iran... and Norway. Reply by mail to jb...@jancomulti.com
