X2- The Threat, 3D Space Trading and Exploring Game Coming to OS X

Trade · Fight · Build · Explore

The ultimate test of combat, tactical, navigational and entrepreneurial skills, X2 - The Threat is a space simulation of breathtaking depth and scope.

The player takes on the role of a pilot indigenous to the X-Universe. The story begins with our soon-to-be hero and his companion attempting to steal a ship and after a failed, action packed escape attempt in a dense nebulae, he soon finds himself aboard a security ship, destined to live out his days on the cold, prison-mining world of Artur.


Trade your way through the space lanes and achieve mogul status. Fight your way through dozens of interlinked missions within an all-new storyline. Build your empire of stations and ships across the Universe. Think if your next move could be your last as the Universe reacts to your actions.


A first person space experience designed for todays gamers with sound and graphics to match. Discover new worlds and races, become a trader, bounty hunter, pirate, miner or a cunning combination of them all. The uneasy peace that befalls the Universe is about to be broken...


Can you meet The Threat head on?

ToySight Gold Expansion Pack!

January 11th, 2005.

Freeverse and Strange Flavour today announced the release of the ToySight Gold Expansion Pack featuring three totally new games including the separate demo release of the 3D networkable dogfighting game with camera or mouse control, "FlySight."

About the three new games:

FlySight: The first ever camera-controlled, eight player rendezvous networked 3D fighter combat game with voice-controlled guns. Also playable as a single player game with four different bosses and increasing levels of difficulty. Download the demo at http://www.freeverse.com/toysight/

AirHeads: Inflate your opponent’s head and pop him before he bursts you!

Mars Lander: Carefully control the Mars Mission craft to fly between bases on Mars, perform rescue missions, and rendezvous.

ToySight Gold also utilizes the power of the G5 to enhance the original games in ToySight by adding extra features and effects.

ToySight Gold allows you to play most ToySight games using mouse and keyboard instead of a camera, which will keep you from looking silly when playing ToySight on transatlantic flights.

You can now change the screen frequency of ToySight Gold from NTSC to PAL mode when you output your Mac’s screen to a TV.


ToySight Gold is a $9.95 expansion pack to the original ToySight.


Grab them today!
