Bah 
Add to the list of people who deserve to be rectally ravaged with a motorised garden implement, the guy who designed that flash-only doom3.com site. Fullscreen, so I have to alt-tab between windows? Cheers for that.

Oh, and if that music sample from the site is in any way indicative of the in-game music, prepare for more hot weedeater-on-ass action. 
Re: BAH 
#1: Why exactly are you not viewing the websites in fullscreen anyway?
#2: Why exactly are you not using a tabbed browser? 
Re: Re: BAH 
#1: Go to www.doom3.com and click on 'enter flash site'.
#2: See point #1 
Gryphon Revisited 
I've played through 13 of the 16 levels from the new unreal sp pack I posted about before. So far, it's very good without being outstanding. Runs a bit slow on my machine but apart from one map, it's always playable.

Well worth getting IMHO.

did you seriously just make a jab at tool? what did you expect anyways, 'faggot techno'? 
Tool? 
Never heard of 'em. Just sounds like a load of angsty white noise if you ask me.

I did exactly that yesterday. The site worked like a charm in Firefox 0.9.2 
Doom3.com 
I agree with Kinn here.

#1: Why exactly are you not viewing the websites in fullscreen anyway?

Fullscreen at 1600x1200 is just silly. Most sites are only 800px wide anyway; anything wider than that and reading text is too difficult.

#2: Why exactly are you not using a tabbed browser?

Even if I am, I'm still not going to have a browser window take up my whole screen. It's nice to be able to browse the web while keeping an eye on IRC, AIM, a movie, progress meter, etc. 
.. 
yeah, the site is pretty gay... oh well. :P 
Tool 
check out the song Eulogy. 
IMPORTANT ANNOUCEMENT!!! L@@K!!!! 
Doom3... HAS GONE GOLD! 
Has Anyone 
kept in touch with Kona since he announced his retirement? I emailed him a while back, but no answer. I would like to use one of his progs.dat files and some sounds he uses that I haven't seen else where. 
Mail 
Mail him a big brown package with a bunch of fake dynamite sticks taped to a digital alarm clock and in addition to putting the return address on there, scribble the words "Death to Kona" all over it. You should probably hear from him. Or the FBI. 
Uhm, I'll Take Your Ideas 
in consideration, in the meantime, anyone else? 
Hmm 
Jago, you must have some different Firefox 0.9.2 to me then, because here it created a new window (sans all toolbars) that filled all 1600x1200 of my screen.

And all for something that would easily fit inside my normal 'viewing space'. 
New Zealand Doesn't Have An FBI 
You'll just get a sniffy message from Customs asking you to plz pay import duty on high explosives kthxbye. 
Yes, 
that's what kills me the most. the actual viewing area is only like 800x600, yet the site feels compeled to go fullscreen. :P

oh well, there isn't much there anyway. i don't need screenshots, i'm gonna get this game anyway! :) 
RE: Hmm 
I am using the Tabbrowser Extensions and set it alaways open new tabs instead of new windows so my browser is always inside a "single window mode". 
Hmm 
Aaaah, there's one that actually works now.

Last time I checked there was only the single window extension, which doesn't work half the time...

(/me wanders off to replace his extensions) 
I Remember Heinlein Calling 
New Zealand a paradise of freedom in one of his books. It just seems so far away. Oh well, Bermuda is less than an hour away via plane. Wished I could afford to go there this year. 
Gaming Mice 
Any of you use a special mouse for gaming? Which one(s)? I know theres alot of love for the logitech mx5xx/mx7xx..do all those buttons serve any purpose? Does it sample/respond any faster than the normal 15$ optical wheel mouse? My old optical is starting to crap out but if theres a mouse that would be smoother in-game then I might consider buying it. I'm kinda wary about logitechs 'gaming oriented' drivers they talk about. 
 
MX510 = Mousey sex. I use Mouse1,2,3 all the time, but the other keys I've never bothered with out of habit, so I can't vouch for them. The mouse wheel feels good, and unlike cheap mice, hasn't crapped out and still feels as good as the day I bought it. This could be due to the fact that there are Mouse Scroll up and down buttons so I don't scroll like crazy surfing the net, I use the buttons more. I really enjoy the mouse and it's kinda pretty. Only issue for some may be that it's very right handed. But oh well, Lefties are weirdos anyway. Quit clogging the gene pool!

Yeah, biff! What's wrong with you?! 
 
*plays guitar Left-handed, YAY I'M WEIRD!*

I'd like to go to New Zealand and based upon my impressions (I'm sure I won't be dissapointed [and the USD to NZD conversion rate being $1 USD = $2 NZD!), perhaps move there. Away from everyone! Yep.
