[edit] Similar game?
I haven't played this game, but it appears to be almost exactly like Ambrosia Software's Mars Rising and Deimos Rising. puddingsucks 06:02, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- Looks like Ambrosia have 'lovingly recreated' the basic premise, yep. --Air 18:06, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] How to pronounce the title?
Is it pronounced "ecks-eh-vus", or "zee-vee-us"? Either way I think it could be argued that the pronunciation should appear in the article. ekedolphin 08:36, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
- It would be worth describing if only there were something to base it on. I call it "zee-vee-us", but who's to say what's correct? It's a made-up name, so presumably whoever made up the name gets to decide. In Japanese it's clearly ゼビウス ("zebiusu"), but if "devious" is pronounced "dee-vee-us" in English then "zee-vee-us" seems reasonable. The description of the TV commercial strongly implies that indeed that was how it was pronounced. -- Paul Richter 08:15, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
It is pronounced zee-vee-iss.66.72.201.167 (talk) 21:40, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
As the katakana indicate, it is pronounced "zeh-vee-us". Everything points to the title being a made-up word. Despatche (talk) 02:19, 27 January 2011 (UTC)
