Sounds awesome ... mega congratulations to the hairy one and I'd like to say I'm *so* stoked for this, it's just great. Wow.

Is this true, GCs can read 3" CDs?

Yeah, if you can find somewhere that writes the CD from outside inwards

There's nothing quite like a dead shooty game from the Llamasoft stable, so I too will be looking forward to this with interest. Hearty congrats indeed!

If so I can buy a bunch from the local supermarket! What we really need is R/W 3" CDs so we can supply the game with an infinite supply of music.

Quick search on the internet only shows TDK brand CDs in 3" form ("TDK 88mm / 3 inch"). These are only CDR but you can buy 10 for about 10 quid: http://www.tdk.com/recmedia/cdr/index.html

Stand by. I'm awaiting jpegs of the front and back covers from Edge themselves. Once they turn up I'll mail them to Yak & RiK and they should appear soon after.

Nice one Yak.
Lionhead produce so really nice stuff, just hope that Unity doesn't just stay on the GC but gets crossed to all formats.

Anyway just one request, pretty sheepie please can you include a decent intro/ nursery slope for a cack handed non-musical tone deaf git that I am.

by the way... on which platform is the virtual light machine on? donÂ´t tell me itÂ´s the gamecube too.

Ehh. It is. Well, it's on the Jag CD but VLM3 = Cube.

Anywayz, you'll need a Cube for Zelda too.

But you don't have to buy a new Cube for every game you know?

Excellent work - I couldn't find any. I notice Verbatim call them "pocket CDs" , I'll bear that in mind when searching when the time comes...
