He's not wrong though - chucking stuff down from orbit is a well understood theory, plus the physics is actually really easy. I bet any developed nation could put up a satellite which could drop something on a precise location no problem at all.

The bit in the trailer I don't like is people using SMGs in space. 'Normal' gun mechanisms don't work in zero-g and vacuum. Even the James Bond mob figured that out for Moonraker.

Oh yeah, I'd seen the rods thing used elsewhere long ago. But the machine guns and erm, noise made me laugh.

That's quite impressive - continue without losing the benefit of purchasing the game. Dubious about the "suggested retail price" because it means they may charge more than that.

They rarely charge more than the suggested retail price, unless there are special circumstances. Prices also come down fairly quickly as well, especially if it is not selling that fast.
