Well, a few good folks have survived into the 15th year of our ever diminishing numbers and we still occasionally manage to get more than a few of us online at the same time.

It will be interesting to see if any games due in the next six months will bring the fabled “next big game” that we can all get enthusiastic about.
Enjoy the new year. 🙂

Pax East has recently finished and one of the most exciting events was the CIG presentation of their Dog-Fighting Module (now renamed as Arena Commander). This gave many fans the first chance to see the dog-fighting in action and gave Chris Roberts the first chance to present the module to the massive fan-base.
Not content with reaching the $42 million crowd-funding total, the DFM will soon be with us and looks like a thing of beauty.
Highlights of the presentation (and some things they didn’t have time for) are shown in the video posted under the Star Citizen News topic.

Strike Vector is a new take on the FPS genre, made by 9 indie developers in 15months and is due to hit Steam early next year, take a look at this youtube video and see what you think

So, as we fall into 2013, what can we expect within the Hussars and within the gaming world as a whole?

Well, at least one of us will become a father for a start.

One the gaming front, few of us are still enjoying Battlefield 3 and indeed have Battlefield 4 to look forward to at the end of the year. Company of Heroes 2 is due  out in the spring and we are currently enjoying Borderlands 2 and the impressive Planetside 2.

Whatever your flavour of gaming fun, have a great year.
