Bad news fellows.... get those hankies out: "The Matrix Reloaded, the first Matrix sequel, likely won't happen until 2003. "It's going to be summer now, summer 2003," Silver said in an interview at the premiere for Osmosis Jones, in which he has a cameo role. ". ARGH! Well... that's certainly not the best way to start a day. Let's try and find some worthy gaming news until Steve and Maarten find their way to a computer. Movie: If I was just a little dumber, I could have been a cop. Maarten's QCON FP: So, QuakeCon is officially starting today. I've been in the hotel since last night, and it looks like it's all pretty much the same setup as last year. Which was a good one, so no complaints :) Especially cool is the Wolfenstein multiplayer section, 12 computers total (pic). There's also a table with 4 copies of GBA Doom running (pic). I'd show you some pictures of this but we are having some DNS issues that has disabled our email and internal ftp for now and might slow down our site for other people. Which is ok for now since I'm on 56k dialup. The hotel DSL went down after all of 6 hours of use. At $9.95 a day, that kinda blows. ...ok as I write this I finally establish a connection with the FTP. Yay for pictures ;)

    QCon 2 on 2 SMACK DOWN.

    Last year Tim and I had an open challenge in the nVIDIA booth in 2 on 2 CTF. The prizes were T-shirts for the winners. We only lost one out of about 25 matches. This year, we have some great prizes as we figure it is time for us to whip everyone's butt again in 2 on 2 CTF courtesy of nVIDIA and all the QuakeCon sponsers and volunteers.

    Here are the details:

    This year we will have two id teams, Tim and myself and Todd and Marty. We will take on any and all 2 person teams in 2 on 2 CTF. Matches will probably be to either 6 or 8 with a 5 minute time limit. This will happen Saturday afternoon and will take place in the nVIDIA booth. If you feel like getting your butt whipped in 2 on 2 CTF, grab a friend and get in line.

    We have some cool prizes this year for everyone.

    The first team that beats one of the id teams gets their choice of either Two GameBoy Advances ( and a game ) or Two GE-Force 3 cards. The 2nd team that wins gets whatever the first team did not choose. The next two winning teams will get framed and signed prints of Team Arena and we will also have T-Shirts and other gizmos and stuff on hand to reward great play and other winning teams.

    Good luck!
