While at Phantasm, I came across the game Equat1on.
It is a sci-fi game that claims to support both tabletop and LARP play. I saw it playtested and it resolved tactical conflicts of 6 to 8 PCs vs a similar number of NPC quickly and efficiently.
I am trying to get more feedback from those who might have seen the game at GenCon.
1) Does the game offer anything more than a functional post-Traveller generic sci-fi game?
2) Do the mechanics really enable an integration of LARP and tabletop play?
3) Is their idea of a subscription-based distribution model a workable one?

And here is a recent blog on the game:http://rpgblog.typepad.com/rpg_blog/2005/08/gen_con_continu_1.html
Not very helpful, but... My booth was right next to theirs. They're nice guys (which isn't particularly relevant), and they've got a ton of passion for the project (which is).
