The game offers nothing unique based on the information on the website.

It's like he likes to post examples of games that are being properly developed.

Errr, thats why there are a lot of other websites, in fact there is a trailer floating around somewhere. Its basicaly GTA Online, except you can be a COP in this game if you desire. Like any one wants to.

I do so, because I try to see what their key is. I could do nothing more but read a developer's blog all day long... FUN FUN FUN!

EDIT: I also wouldn't say its "properly" devoloped since some issues between David Jones and the publishers have been made public and Real Time Worlds has a bad reputation according to some sources.

You're not offering a very compelling argument.

I like to read about things I'll never do to.

But that doesn't mean I maintain that I can fly like superman.

Use Google, its much better than me. But after seeing Bioshock, I've begun to lose interest in this game...

I maintain that I have the ability to make a game, I don't maintain that I have the endurance to stick with an idea long enough that has no guarenteed future or success. (I know spelling)

Then make a game. Any game. But make it polished, and release it for free. That way, you don't have to worry about whether it will be commercially viable.

I have a couple 1998 top view scrollers made with a Naboo starfighter sprite and a droid fighter sprite that I made a LOOOOONG time ago... I think I'll update it later on.

You mean you took someone elses sprite engine, and added someone elses sprite. To make a game you didn't even really make.
