« on: April 09, 2004, 01:57:30 pm »
well maybe not quite, but i was reading this months PCGAMER (April 2004 Issue 134) and theres a little bit on Planeshift on page 111 :) not much but thought that it was cool it was being mentioned.

the last line say \"Due for a big update any time now\", lol that made me laugh ;)

Isn\'t that illegal? Isn\'t that against copyright-laws ?(

Wow! An Open-Source and free project in a famous magazine! They write about all possible crap, like games that get 1 out of 100, but never about good free stuff.
Oh wait... there isnt much good free stuff besides Planeshift!
Unluckliy i cant buy this mgazine, i would if i could, but here it costs like 16 or 17 euro...  :(
Go Planeshift, Go!!!
A new day, a new failure!

Planeshift first appeared in the pages of PCgamer way back in 2001, before we even had Atomic Blue. I\'ll have to see if I can dig out the tiny article for you sometime ;)

EDIT: Wait a minute, that\'s me in the article screenie! Hehe, yay! Fame at last, I\'m in an international magazine. Shouldn\'t I get some kind of commission from the mag for that? ;) :P

Against all odds I have managed to track down the PC Gamer article from 2001, with it\'s pre-AB screen shot containing the old skin for the Stonebreaker Dwarf.

Sorry for the very poor quality, my scanner is acting up, so I had to try to take a blurry photo instead :rolleyes:



\"Doesn\'t look at all innovative\"? Pah, I hope they fired that writer :P
