Ya know what kind of sucks? The PSN version of Greed Corp doesn't support custom soundtracks.
Oh, man. The two songs they wrote for the soundtrack are great. For the first hour or so. But you're going to be playing much longer than that. And I've already memorized every note of those two songs.
I'll have to check this out, I absolutely *love* moonbase commander and have been frustrated that the game is essentially dead except for a very few die-hard fans out there (myself included).

I’ll tell you what happens in Demon’s Souls when you die. You come back as a ghost with your health capped at half. And when you keep on dying, the alignment of the world turns black and the enemies get harder. That’s right, when you fail in this game, it gets harder. Why? Because fuck you is why.
Moonbase commander should come back as PSN/XBLA/Wiiware release. (Or steam.)
Why wait for another company to make another version of Moonbase Commander and run the risk it'll get abandoned (again) when you can just help develop an open source version? As my sig says there is a FOSS (Free Open Source Software) remake of Moonbase Commander called MoonPy. It's still missing a few minor features like FoW, wind, and bots but beyond that it is playable. It's the only place (that I know of at least) left on the internet that currently has any sort of active community for Moonbase Commander fans.

I just bought Greed Corp yesterday and am thoroughly enjoying it. I could definitely see how the tutorial would be lacking for someone who had no experience with the gameplay. Fortunately for me, I watched the GiantBomb preview before ever playing the game, where one of the devs walks you through a 1v1 match, which helped tremendously.
This game is surprisingly deep and intriguing despite the apparently simple mechanics. Every map so far has played very differently and added some needed variety into the gameplay. I'm almost finished with the Freemen campaign at this point.
I haven't been able to find a multiplayer game on the PSN, although I haven't really tried much yet. If you're looking for a game, feel free to friend me (PSN: thisisalan).
I got three games in online total, over a course of about six hours of staying in the multiplayer lobby while doing something else. Disappointing, really.
I know this game is too recent, but was crossing my fingers it would be part of the April sale. Loved the demo, but since I have a giant back log to work on I'll continue to wait on the price drop here. Especially if the online community is non existent already.

They haunt me.

it is quite excellent
speaking of which, my psn is Ah_Pook if anyone wants to play sometime.

I should add I hope it does well. Greed Corp was excellent and deserved to do better than it did.
Nice!
