Title: Savage:The Battle For Newerth
Post by: Anonymous on June 06, 2004, 07:31:56 pm: I'm just curious if any of you have this game.If not, I would suggest getting it if you have a few bucks and are getting bored.

The official site can be found :here (http://www.s2games.com/savage/index.html)

It is an RTSS Real Time Strategy Shooter.There are two races, beasts and humans, and the team that destroys the others stronghold or lair wins.It is pretty fun, so if you have the time, check out the demo.The community could use a few more players.

Also, I forgot to mention it is multiplayer only.
