Laser Arena Demo
by Steve Gibson, Nov 29, 2000 3:47pm PSTThis one slipped by earlier this morning but I caught it! A playable demo of LaserArena from TrainWreck Studios has been released. You can grab it from FilePlanet or DemoNews. The game is based on the Quake1 engine (Just like Half-Life2! heh) and looks pretty novel to me. At least worth a look although not really for this crowd. Here's the details & minithumbnail rampage:
- Play Laser Tag on your PC Non-Violent Arena style gameplay - Play against realistic computer opponents or real people - Play through 15 amazing levels - True 3D worlds - Awesome special effects

Since the Quake 1 engine is released under the GPL, can I ask these guys for their source code?

And I think it's a really smart move on their part. The low price, the lack of violence, and the low system requirements will all appeal to a certain demographic that Q3/UT can't touch.
This is the Who wants to be a millionaire/barbie game crowd.
That combined with the low production costs (thanks to the Q1 engine) really makes this look like a smart plan.
I don't think I'd pay $19.99 for it, though.
Guess this is one that the moralizing Republicans kind of, er, hoped no one would notice....

Just a few weeks ago legendary recording artist and TV personality Cookie Monster filed suit against several popular commercial hardcore bands including Cannibal Corpse, Slipknot and Sepultura. The suit alleges that these bands have stolen Cookie's sound. Cookie is well known for several hits, including "C is for Cookie."
Since the late 80s many bands have been copying cookie's vocal style and attempting to sound like him. Rumor has it that after Max Cavalera left Sepultura to form Soulfly, the remaining members of Sepultura attempted to recruit Cookie Monster to take over lead singing duties for the band.
"Me say metal bands rip off sound," said Cookie during a radio interview earlier this year. "Me think royalties past due. Me miss out on many cookies. Arrg yum-yum Grawl! Yarr-grum!" said Cookie while tearing through a bag of animal crackers.
A spokesperson for Cookie Monster spoke to a group of reporters yesterday on the matter. "Cookie is very upset that his sound is not only being ripped off, but the culprits are members of the seedy commercial rock world. When Cookie started his career in the 1970s on PBS he wanted not only to entertain, but also to show fans something good could come from outside corporate music. Cookie's unique sound won him generations of fans."
Friends close to Cookie say lately the blue monster has been so upset over the lawsuit and the way these bands have cheapened his sound that he has been unable to eat most of the Chips Ahoy and Oreo gift packages that have been pouring in from loyal fans.
