Star Citizen articles
Don't know how many of you are interested in the game, I know I've mentioned it a few times in RC. There's a video section of 5 of the ships currently built in the game engine. I thought I'd post some other articles on this game that may pique your interest further. Hell the guy making it (Chris Roberts of Wing Commander fame) has just short of $18 million of croudfunding only support for this game. Which means that publishers like IGP aren't going to influence his decisions on how this game is made. If you also watch the intro video he's mentioned that he's making a game HE wants to play.

Little bit more info on his "persistant world" idea
I'll add more as time goes on, the game as a whole isn't set to be released until 2015. But modules (currently the hanger) are going to be released over time, the dogfighting module is set to come in Decemeber. Pledging now gets you access to the Alpha and the Beta devepolments. Only cost me $65 to get access.
I'm generally not a fan of anything flight sim-ish, but the initial interviews with Chris Roberts and his description of what he was trying to accomplish with this game was enough for me to open my wallet.
Prior to release I will have to open my wallet a bit further though, as my machine at home is too low spec for even the hanger module demo.
Well Sun I know you can't see it, but any package bought BEFORE Nov. 26th you could gift to me, and in turn I can regift to you 24 hours later with Lifetime Insurance on it. Not a big deal in the long run, but every little bit helps.
I picked up the Bounty Hunter in February, so I have Lifetime Insurance already on my Origin 300i at release. I just need to make sure I have a computer capable of running the game on release (actually, I hope to have that resolved prior to alpha opening for play).
