Gas Powered Games and Stardock have inked a deal regarding Demigod, Gas Powered Games' upcoming action-RTS-RPG hybrid title. The good news is that Stardock will be publishing the game and a public beta is slated for this summer. The bad news? Demigod's not getting released until February 2009. More info as well as a bunch of new screenshots can be found in the full article.

If Gas Powered Games' promise of tactical combat action, fun multiplayer mode, and high-tech weaponry in Space Siege haven't lured you into checking out the title to be published by Sega, you can take a glimpse at it by watching the gameplay video taken from CES 2008 at the full article.

There's big news in upcoming games for 2008, and this one comes in the form of one of Gas Powered Games' latest, secret projects known only as Demigod. Initial details and the game's actual title was recently spilled, though more will come in the latest issue of Games for Windows Magazine, prompting a definite release for the PC action/RTS/RPG player. But some clues point that Demigod may come to consoles, too. More at the full story.

It looks like Chris Taylor and his army at Gas Powered Games were keeping another secret, and if it weren't for a recently conducted interview, the mind behind THQ's Supreme Commander wouldn't have revealed the ultimate real-time strategy title as another surprise. Though it was revealed that Supreme Commander would probably arrive on Microsoft's Xbox 360 first, there is also hope that Gas Powered Games could deliver it to the Sony PlayStation 3.

"You've almost made me confess that we're working on it... No, actually you have. That's good. I like that. This is a secret I want to share," said Taylor, after expounding on Gas Powered Games' efforts to create a friendly interface for console strategists. What's more is that the previously unveiled Space Siege, a sci-fi rehash of Dungeon Siege (think Rebelmind Games' Space Hack or Silverback Entertainment's Harbinger), will also come with console-friendly versions next year.

Currently, Taylor views the Microsoft Xbox 360 as the current "platform of choice" for pushing PC games out to consoles, because of the least amount of finances involved in development. He still remains hopeful that Sony PlayStation 3 versions will soon follow, due to added developer feedback and a larger install base in the near future.

News on whether the stand-alone expansion Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance will also hit consoles or not, or if a Space Siege Nintendo Wii version will be considered has yet to surface. There are speculations, however, that this move may be the result of THQ trying to cash in on its current published intellectual properties after witnessing a lackluster Q2 financial performance.

THQ has just announced that Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance has gone gold, and it won't be long before Gas Powered Games' addition to the real-time strategy front will take to PCs around the globe. Tactical and strategic commanders alike will now have to face the incoming Seraphim onslaught and divert human kind's fate from extinction in Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.

Forming a shaky alliance among the three human factions, the Cybran Nation, Aeon Illuminate, and United Earth Federation will gain new units including state-of-the-art Tier 4 experimental units to toy with. The Seraphim are masters of powerful and highly-advanced quantum technology, and even the most "Napoleonic" of commanders will have to master all the new additions to thwart the alien invasion.

THQ's Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance will invade North American retail stores on November 6. Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance is a stand-alone expansion to Chris Taylor's Supreme Commander for Windows PCs over DVD and CD-ROM.

 

FilePlanet Founder's Club members are in for another real treat. After firing the first shots in Electronic Arts' upcoming FPS Crysis, these lucky people will be the first to command the warring factions of Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.

Gas Powered Games and THQ in cooperation with FilePlanet have launched the Beta of this stand-alone expansion to Supreme Commander. That's right, you don't have to own the first game and install it in order to play Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.

New gameplay features are trumpeted by the developers. The biggest addition, of course, will be the new faction called the Seraphim. Balancing tweaks, new units and some additions to mechanics round up the rest of the features. Are you a FilePlanet Founder's Club member? We'll be glad to hear about your experience with the game.

And while real-time strategists (and crafty Napoleons out there) await the second installment to Supreme Commander, Gas Powered Games has taken the time to provide tidbits of new information on Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance. And fortunately, it also comes with a couple new screenshots and a short video to boot.

Commanders, the Infinite War has ravaged the war machines that fueled it. And with the Seraphim at human kind's doorsteps, all odds have turned against us. The Cybran Nation, the Aeon Illuminate, and the United Earth Federation must unite to halt the Seraphim invasion, before it dishes out vengeful destruction on every human world in its wake.

A list of new Cybran units with screenshots await you at the full article!

Philips has teamed-up with Gas Powered Games to release an amBX Supreme Commander bundle. This is the perfect chance to pick-up a copy of both the game and the amBX Gaming Peripherals, if you haven't already done so.

The Philips amBX PC Gaming Peripherals is a very big package. It includes a pair of left and right satellite lights capable of projecting 16 million different colours, a pair of left and right satellite 2.1 speaker lights and subwoofer which offer 160-watt multi-directional sound and bass boost, a pair of desk fans, a wrist rumbler, and a directional wall washer light with controller unit.

Each of the different peripherals will be put to good use in Supreme Commander as the General Manager for New Business Development at Philips Consumer Electronics, Engelbert van Pelt, noted in the recent press release:

Supreme Commander is the perfect title to accompany and showcase the Philips amBX Gaming Peripherals effects. Supreme Commander’s real-time strategy game play will maximise the lighting, wind and rumble effects that the Philips amBX PC Gaming Peripherals are capable of delivering. War gaming has never been so realistically scary.

IT certainly looks sounds like a sweet addition to any gamer's arsenal. If it works exactly as described, then this bundle will be on every PC Gamer's wish list this holiday season.
