Quakecon Ultra Extra Evening Reading for you. There's no way it could have been avoided, sorry! First, there's like a ton of other gaming news out there but a) I'm tired and b) nobody really cares at the moment so we'll just leave that for tomorrow or something. And there have been a monstrous amount of ER submissions tonight (thanks!) - unfortunately too much to be included in one edition. Here's the editors pick for today: - Trust the healing power of the penis! Or not. Fuck the doctor first, then sue for sexual assault. Best of both worlds if you ask me.
- San Fransico isn't exactly cheap, that's nothing new. So you are a well paid air traffic controller, what do you do to make ends meet? You start to rob banks. Ofcourse.
- I know you all have been waiting for something as big as this: A NFS (NES sound format) plugin for winamp! Yay!
- Check out this poor polar bear. He's hot and is taking a nap on a block of ice.
- Oh my! The chicks are totally going to dig this guy. And imagine the fun you could have with TWO of these arms!
- Picture this: You're totally into bondage, and playing some games with your favorite human. Then, suddenly the cops show up. I tell you ... that is not good for your reputation as respectable sheep.
- British people are weird. And why ask the children? There are enough big boned people in britain who could do a whole lot more damage then a bunch of featherlight kids!
- French people are even weirder. And I have no doubt they're very good at imitating pigs.
- There's also some cnn coverage of quake 4.
Special sniffs to Dognose, and the other contributors: MrShmoo, Goofyboy, Zoesch, jo-papa, and others I forgot. And oh, this queer version of ER is dedicated to my copy of Win2K, that decided to crash the second before I tried to post the original version of this article.

Graphics: I loved them. Others said they were OK but I think it looks better than Q3. Textures, fog, smoke, lights etc. looked brilliant. Low-poly you say? Screw you. It even ran smoothly on my Geforce 256 =).
Geo-Mod: Yup you can blow up walls really nicely and dig tunnels with explosions. It works way better I had ever expected.
Gameplay: This isn't very good.. Point'n'click is just not so fun :P. Even dodging is pointless in this game because most enemies shoot lightningfast bullets. So all you gotta do is stand still and shoot. The demo was even very easy.
Overall: Atmosphere was great, sounds too etc. unfortunately gameplay is what matters most to me. So score goes down to <b>85</b>.

Weeks went buy, each one Tycho promised to get the review to me, but it never happened. Eventually I said "look, if you can't review it, fine. just send it back to me and I'll figure something out". He agreed.
Well, a few days ago I received a huge shipment of games from Take 2. All of them were games people wanted or could review, save one: MTV TRL Trivia. I saw the box and a smile spread across my face. VENGANCE WOULD BE MINE!
Attached is the letter I sent along w/ the TRL box to Tycho:
I[Jerry,
Enclosed you will find your punishment for not reviewing the Elite Force expansion pack. As your eyes travel over the horrid writings on the box, know that my wrath is severe. Now, at this point, you have two choices. 1) You can review this game for me, which would require you to actually PLAY it. 2) You can live in fear that every game no reviewer will take will be sent to you. Every day when the mail arrives, your pulse will quicken. What will be next? eXtreme Deer Hunter? Who Wants to be a Millionair, Jerry Luis edition? The upcoming Brittany Spears game? ph34r.
Your choice is a difficult one, but either one I'm sure will be horrible enough to suit me just fine.
Best Wishes,
Kevin Weiser

I can finally agree with ONE feature Windows XP offers.
That "application grouping" thing so your task bar is less cluttered (all the ie's come up in a "Group" and all the explorers come up in a group etc) GOD I WISH WIN2k DID THAT RIGHT ABOUT NOW.
I have 22 things down the bottom, and I just closed 5-10 of them :(

I found ultima underworld 1, a demo but it won't work in win2k and my 98 installation has gone "up the shitter" for some GAY reason (and you cant re-install 98 without damaging your 2k installation)

(correct me if I am wrong) but the "cue" of shit to download is stored on the server, so they just send me shit whenever I log in, no matter how long ago I request it, EVENTUALLY it will turn up??
(that's how it seems, and if so - fucking WICKED feature)
I can just make a "cue" of 999 songs and let them come in day after day week after week, knowing even computer resets won't stop it! l333t

I guess it's not that easy though :( And the textures would have to be redone and that would involve having the art dept. doing extra stuff and the modellers remodelling the creepies... bah
I hope someone has some extra time to do stuff instead of them rushing for a 02 Xmas release and patching it for the next year or so afterwards.
