    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    not too impressed over here. the graphics look worse than most xbox 360 launch titles, but it could be my dinosaur laptop or slow internet signal here in the man-cave. i also don't see the point of this, as (if i recall correctly), the alien invaders are wiped out by the common cold....so do you just run and hide for the duration of the game?

    the 2005 film is far from perfect but has really grown on me over the years. i recall reading the novel in the mid-90's when independence day and mars attacks were also very big blips on my radar. speaking of which, a mars attacks game would be quite entertaining if done correctly.

    as for this game, i'll probably just re-watch the film and skip this entry, which looks like a snooze-fest.

    Gameplay looks very questionable in how involved and interesting it will be?

    Struggling in truth to see what the engaging gameplay is with this?
