Bunch O' Stuff

[Gobalopper]

opsig let me know that if you are using Zone Alarm you should it off while patching, it fixed his download stalling problem. He also passed along news from Cliff that the patch could be showing up on the FTP servers as early as Monday or Tuesday and that the Emperor map editor was, "looking likely."

EdricO has moved to a new domain and his site is now called WWRTS. Head over and pay him a visit.

Duncan Idaho passed along some Italian review scores for Emperor. Check them out:

- NEXTGAME.it (good side: good resolution and graphics: a classic! - bad side: lack of innovation)

- SPAZIOGAMES (global score: 9, subscores: graphics 9, sound 10, playability 9, longevity 9; good side: faultless graphics, Grammy Award's soundtrack; bad sides: too easy, scarce AI)

- NIPOGAMES (global score: 83/100, subscores: presentation 3/5, graphics 5/5, sound 3/5, playability 5/5, longevity 5/5, quality/price 4/5)

Along with that he sent in a scanned review from TGM which gave Emperor 80/100. Check out page 1, 2, and 3. And lastly he scanned the cover of House Atreides Italian version, thanks for all those. :)

The newsletter along with it's new feature the mailbag will be posted later tonight.
