    If its high quality then cool. I would love some proper space sci-fi on my screen.

    kind of have my doubts how it will turn out though.

    Those whacky Icelanders are clever and good at what they do indeed. If CCP ever decides to make a more mainstream game the world better watch it I think. :)

    CCP not being afraid to push the boundaries of what can and can't be done with a gaming 'verse is in no way a bad thing.

    EVE is a very neat 'verse TBH. I've read the books (and played the game) and a lot can be done with it.

    Good luck to them :)

    Is it called "Gankers, and Griefers, in paradise ?" Sorry, I had an interest in trying Eve a few years ago, because my brother raved about how awesome it was.A year ago, he uninstalled it, and told me not to waste my time on it, it turned into a nightmare trolling game. Not interested in Eve at all. But thanks for posting the info, CS.

    This is all you need to know about Iceland and the crazy-TRIBBLE people who live there.

    "Hmm. Seems like a real shame to let all that good fish meat go to waste."

    "Well what if we buried it in a gravel pit for a few months and let it rot? Maybe it will be more edible then."

    "Worth a shot."

    *Months later*

    "Did it work?"

    "No, Skjeld just tried some and he's vomiting blood."

    "Okay, let it dry out for a few months and try again."

    *Later*

    "Well, the good news is we can eat it and live. The bad news is it tastes like limburger cheese that's been soaked in ammonia, and the smell for the curing shed is so horrible it makes the surrounding countryside uninhabitable."

    "Perfect. We shall make it a national dish."

    Wait, does this mean members of GoonSwarm will feature as characters?

    Dear God...

    Wow. Just wow. I know sometimes people bash others for veering off topic. But for this I want to thank you. That was extremely fascinating to read about. Never heard of that before.

    That has made my day.

    You're welcome. I am curious to see how it will turn out.

    GoonSwarm is very entertaining.




    From a distance. This will be the perfect way to enjoy EVE without having to actually play.

    You're welcome. I love it when I meet people who have never heard of Hakarl.

    I don't want to turn this into an episode of Bizzare Foods with Sander (although that probably would be more interesting than EVE TV) but I actually love fresh poi. It's one of my favorite weird foods.

    I have tried Hakarl, and I actually kept most of it down, and I can say conclusively it is the most repugnant thing I have ever attempted to eat.

    Back on topic; I do have to wonder if EVE has a big enough audience outside of it's playerbase to warrant a Tv show. I wonder what the population of EVE is nowadays anyway.

    Just over 500k and Eve TV has been going for years. Well the online one has.

    Developer CCP Games has announced a partnership with Icelandic filmmaker Baltasar Korm?kur and his production company to develop the series

    Let me just say this: If every creative partnership to develop a TV series came through, I'd be a TV producer and pointing you to the YouTube copies of the show based on my ideas right now.

    These things mean nothing until the film starts rolling. And even then it might just be a con reel in ten years.
