3/31/ Tribes™: Vengeance - Julia’s Sky-Pony

IGN just unveiled an exclusive new vehicle for Tribes™: Vengeance called Julia’s Sky-Pony. After reading this article, we contacted Chris Mahnken, the producer at the Sierra office up north and asked him a few of our own questions …

Where does the SkyPony spawn?

We thought it would be fun to have the SkyPony spawn from a carousel that will be placed appropriately in single- and multi-player maps. Of course MOD-ers can place the carousel anywhere they want.

Is the SkyPony an air or ground vehicle?

It’s a little bit of both, but we think people will probably use it mostly in the air to avoid ground fire.

Why did you decide to make the SkyPony?

There is a certain type of Tribes player who likes to do everything on their own. They are the Lone Cowboy players, and they needed transportation that would indicate their status as Cowboys. The SkyPony is for them. When you’re riding on your SkyPony, you don’t need anybody else. You are the Lone Cowboy.

What armaments does the SkyPony carry?

The SkyPony is definitely more of a travel vehicle rather than a combat vehicle, but we didn’t leave it completely unarmed. We’re currently experimenting with a dual chaingun loadout but may give people the option of arming it with rockets as well. This is something we’ll want to test in the various public beta programs we’re planning.

So, there you have it! Personally, I think it will be great to see the softer side of T:V. You know, speak softly – carry a big stick. >:)

1/6/ Apex Plans To Launch Own Console!

Apex Digital, which now outsells Sony in DVD players, says they will announce a new console at the Consumer Electronics Show this week in Las Vegas (starting January 8th). They have said that it will be a console most like that of the Xbox. Via Technologies will supply the 1.4 Ghz processor and chipset. It will basically be a PC stripped down to a console form that is meant for the living room. Many entertainment companies want to be the one to have control of the living room because it potentially has the largest potential for sales. At CES the company will give details on how it plans to compete with GCN, PS2, Xbox and normal PC systems.

The console is called the ApeXtreme. You can probably hear people making fun of the name right now. The medium will be DVD's and CD's. Apex will sell two versions of the console for $299 and $399. The more expensive version contains DeltaChrome graphics designed by Via Graphics, while the less pricey version has a Via CN400 chipset. For people that wish to write it off as a PC you have a lot of ammo, it will run on the Windows XP operating system, have a built-in hard disk, play DVD's, and display pictures. Six USB ports will also be included. At this time a representative says it will be able to play regular PC games and will use digital-rights software to prevent it from being modified. No launch date has been announced.
