Personally I would say, don't fret. Your not exactly missing out.
Don't get me wrong, what is offered is nice.. but hardly anything to be upset about or anything.

Riftspace looks the most intruiging. I've never been too big a fan of straight space combat games, but the extra strategy and management stuff sounds cool.

Darkmatter1 characters are not ideal for DBPro - they're limbed and can look a bit dated when we have mesh deform animation which looks so much better.

very true - but they are extremely low poly which also makes them look a bit naff

It is a shame we do not get the other stuff, it seems this is one of the worst software producers when it comes to looking after it loyal customers, I mean go over to pyxia and you will see they have reduced the price of IBasic Pro, but paul is going to give the 3d add on pack for free to those who paid full price, now thats taking care of the piople who buy your products and put bread on your table.

That's a marketing ploy.

I don't think Paul really likes you.
