I'm not sure that one is out yet. If that's the case I really wouldn't trust a review of a pre-release version of a game.

I'm guessing it's a (TM) gone wrong.

Yeah, I hope it's either something old or something new as well.

It looks like the wait has gotten a little longer for European Wing Commander fans who are planning to pick up EA Replay. The release dates listed at both Amazon and the EA Press site have changed from February 23 to March 16 for the UK and March 15 in France. No other information has changed...

Rick Salemi reports that Privateer 2 star Clive Owen is starring in a movie called "Shoot 'Em Up" which is due for release later this year. While it has what is possibly one of the most terrible titles ever, the movie's plot is described as "A man named Mr. Smith (Owen) delivers a woman's baby...

Normally I'd just give you a week probation to let you think about what you've done wrong here, but signing up just to post this and your comment about "out dated computer games" makes me think you're just here to cause trouble. You're welcome to email us about this if you feel the need. I'm...

The patches we used on our flight suits are custom made and then we have somebody modify a flight suit similar to the one Death posted. Unfortunately we don't have anyone available to do the modification work right now which is why we can't offer any suits right now. If we have any left-over...

The space thing is a bug in the installer. Try creating the directory you want to install to (e.g. c:\dark) before trying to install to it.

The files are in order, but many of the briefing beginnings/ends and the losing endings are right at the end because they can be played at any point during the game. They'll be in pack 3.

I still haven't recovered yet. I'm really tired. Still, at least I didn't get sick like I normally do just before and for a few days after arriving home. Lots of people seem to suffer like that.. there's even a specific term for it.. "con crud".
