Eugene,

Thanks for the kind words!

We've got a ton of products in development right now and I think
you'll find them cool!  On Friday ELECTRONIC ARTS approved two more of
our products for retail distribution so we're very excited about the
things going on at Epic right now. Look for announcements about those
games sometime in the next 60 days. If we can make products that
world-leader Electronic Arts are willing to publish then we know we're
doing something right!  

I think people will really like Tyrian. The early reviews from both
the US PC Gamer (87%) and the UK PC Gamer (2 page preview) were
excellent and hopefully users will enjoy it as much and register it.
