Just a newsie in the city...

Want me to grab you one (when they arrive)? Are you insane enough to want the current issue (with the Flossie pic) too? What about the Retro special?

Pete.

Long live the Gamecube and please don't go the way of all the other Llama hardware choices of late...Konix, Jaguar, Nuon....

Thanks Jeff, I'm sure this is going to be most excellent...2004/5 here I come!

Welcome to the forums paul. Here, have a fluffy sheepie

As for the "curse", well, that's basically bollocks anyway. Jeff is working on an existing console this time, rather than taking a gamble on a new system - Nuon was always up against it (and it *should* have been massive) and Atari's problems were far deeper than anyone could have realised in the early 90's.

What success the Jaguar and Nuon had was mostly down to Jeff's work. He cannot and should not be blamed if Atari were unable to produce *anything* else that matched T2K and he certainly cannot be blamed for VMLabs being unable to follow up on their initial promises.

The gamecube is not going to succeed or fail because of Jeff, it already has many great games and there are many more to come. It's not going anywhere soon, and neither is Jeff

Besides, Jeff's managed to produce two of the best games of the last 10 years on non-mainstream hardware, I for one can't wait to see what he can do on the Cubie...

Cheers
Chris

Welcome, pauldesmond, to the

"The Curse of Minter" - what an appalling concept - The phrase is probably better used to describe a particularly hot vindaloo

I sent them a headsup and a few paragraphs about Jeff/Unity on Tuesday... so I guess they've ignored what I wrote and done their own work

Ah well... least I tried

*grins* I remember at Jolly 2, I was half-trashed, and trying to thankPVB for something.... unfortunately, I kept starting "Medway...." and he'd yell "PVB!!" and I thought he was just completing it for me... so we stood there for five minutes with me saying "Medway..." and him yelling "PVB", and him getting incrementally more narked, until I finally twigged and addressed him as PVB, and then there came the discussion about how poo Medway actually is...

...I don't think I ever actually got around to thanking him for whatever I was thinking him for, and I've forgotten what it was anyways.... anyway.

Thanks Med... uh *ulp* PVB!

Me has been to get Edge from Shops, good that it's out a day Early

Love both articles, Jeff you are so Eloquent, all that stuff about what you've done and how stuff should be etc, brilliant.

Oh and I like the Picture on Page 18 as well, although some of the pictures on page 19 ain't bad either
