Looks like Sierra's dying for some sex appeal from Karan Sjet. She's plastered all over the sight. And check out the models! WOW!:eek2:

Thats not the point check out the ship viewer! it actually renders it to (what I'm assuming) will be game engine quality and sticks it there right on your desktop. Impressive stuff!

Ooooohhhh! But you need WMP 9 to view the trailer, yes? And it won't install on Win98, will it? This does not bode well.

The new assault frigate looks kick-ass! :D


EDIT: Get the new version of WMP9, and the trailer should work. I'm pretty sure the game could run on Windows 98, too.

Have you watched the in-game clip? Ahh, the music. It's just like old times.

I'm going to have to play HW now.

The trailer is in divx format. So all you need is the divx codec to to play the file.  WMP 9 has nothing to do with it.  You can use the divx player itself to view the trailer (which is better for viewing divx files anyway).

When someone linked to the trailer a few days ago (either here or on PCG) I was told that you need WMP9 to run it, now I see that this is not the case.
I. Must. Get. This. Game.

Oddly enough, though, there is that other site with all the ships listed on it, as opposed to the 3 or 4 on the official site. Does anyone have a link to the site I'm on about?
