grviper: Speaking of GMG deals... Is there anything special to Dark Sector, or does the trailer accurately represent it as "guy shooting stuff without an American flag on it"?
I haven't seen a trailer like that in a while, too. The complete lack of structure is amazing.
p_mamusz: Their other game Ninja Blade(that used the same game engine) also looks like japanese export, though they sey thats actully quite solid in its own genre.
Ninja Blade is a fairly direct ripoff of Ninja Gaiden Black/Sigma. Weapons, art style, QTE bosses, gameplay. Only it's far less polished and features such classics and one of the graphics options offering you a choice between "Average" and "Medium".
p_mamusz: Dont count on it,
Pride of Nations, and Rise of Prussia rights went back to Ageod thats been aquired by Slitherine, so i dont think they will be discounted in a Paradox sale. As a matter of fact, dont expect any dicounts from now on... :O
ne_zavarj: AGEod should fix their store .

Niche wargame-specific stores are generally shit, when it comes to pricing. Matrix Games, Stormpowered, Battlefront.
