UQM recommendation from Sharkey & 1UP.com
« on: July 14, 2004, 10:13:31 pm »
Scott Sharkey recently did a piece on SC2, specifically the UQM port, at the gaming news site 1UP.com, as part of their "Freeloader" feature series on free games:

as well as a funny bit of political humor on his personal site:

The "Bush + Cheney '04" banner spoof is especially awesome.

It did. Me, for instance. Good thing, too, because it's one of the best games I've ever played.
