Dystopia is a is a total conversion of the Source Engine that places players into tense combat situations in a high-tech world spanned by computer networks. As Punks or Corporate Mercenaries, players will fight through the physical world to gain access, via Jack-in Points, to cyberspace. Cyberspace is a three dimensonal representation of the world's network. In cyberspace, players must fight off enemy hackers and launch programs to gain control of critical systems and to affect the physical world. Gameplay progresses through inter-linked physical and cyberspace objectives, and players must work together to achieve victory for their team. Players will be immersed in action-packed battles, whether as a heavily augmented combat mercenary armed to the teeth with the latest in firepower and cybernetic implants, or as a twitch-reflex cyberdecker racing to infiltrate a cyberspace node.

I have no clue where you guys thought that they were looking for a source license for a 360 port.

Not to go too far off topic, but I know that you guys were talking with Valve about licensing Source for a 360 port of Dystopia. Any luck with that?

More on-topic: game looks amazing. Not sure if any more elaboration is needed.

a 360 port would be neat, but unless you plan to include it as part of a package (say, HL2E3 or whatever) i don't see how it'd be worth the money without a singleplayer portion.

No, lots of people do care about 360, you'rejust too much of a pc fanboy to notice.

My 2 cent.

they're times, GMT is a timezone based in greenwich england (U.S. Eastern time & Australian Eastern time). so you calculate what timezone you're in, GMT+8, GMT-4, whatever and thus know when the release will happen for you.

Actually it did. They made a post on Gamedev.net about a month ago looking for programmers to help them port it to the 360 as an Xbox Live Arcade game.

So they abandoned the idea?

Assuming he's the one that made the post. It could have been a rogue faction of the team. Who knows.

I'd be playing the PC version anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter.
