Evening Reading
by Steve Gibson, Oct 29, 2002 6:33pm PSTA big shoutout to GameStop today, thanks for calling me in to pick up my copy of Vice City and not actually having it! Appreciate that! Better yet, try to sell me the strategy guide while I was there not picking up my copy of Vice City. First and last time I ever pre-order there. Sigh. So here's some stuff for you guys to read while I sit at home grumbling:
- Real networks and open source - Crazy volcano stuff happening - Television is sexist? No.... - Win the world series.. you go to Disneyland right? Yeah you still gotta pay. - Cyber war approaches?Lastly, its the end of the world as we know it. ICQ and AIM will become compatible with each other.

Capcom aims to shorten development cycle
most of all the ut maps lack structure and thats why i think the game is totally useless for cool tdm games.
and ctf and br get killed by the translocator imo. a "weapon" like this has should not be in a fps game. yeah sure, you can do some insane stuff with it but i think it just breaks the game. oh yeah, and the total lack of cool 1on1 maps is also inexcuseable.
overall i am very disappointed with ut2k3. the demo was fun and all but the retail version sucks. and i was so looking forward to a new fast paced action fps but ut2k3 for sure isn't the new fps king.

What happened to Anika with the tits at jazzradio.net!?
I havent been there in a while and I was expecting to see a different, updated version of her little webpage along with a more enhanced view of her tits.
I guess SHE'S the last one standing! Shows that she's cockteasing everyone that's looking at her on the cam.

for some reason it won't let me claim any other settlements (the town hall or whatever is greyed out) so I max out my troops, rush them against the enemy...they usually destroy half a dozen buildings or towers, now and again the town hall, and then finally get crushed by the endless rows of towers
rebuild the army, rush again...same thing, the enemy has like 3 towns and can rebuild his defenses before I can do any serious damage
frustration!

I need some "24" fill-in from last night, please. I missed the first 30 minutes and caught it just as they were briefing Palmer on the bomb in the war room.
Can someone please Shackmessage me (or spoilertag) what happened up until there?
Thanks.
