Quake 3 Arena source is GPL'ed ------------------------------ As was previously announced at this year's QuakeCon event by id Software's John Carmack, the Quake III source code has been released under GPL. (Global Public Licence)
think of the revolution this decision could bring.. all the engines and softwares and all for free within everyone's hand..(think: few guys, took unix, gave it an extreme makeover, and we got Linux, the greatest OS out there right now!)
oh and thanx for the mention on ur last post.. couldnt really find it here.. hm.. will keep on looking!
I don't like linux :) Did you play burnout revenge yet? kicks ass! Ninja Gaiden Black is out. As I never got around to play the original I might just play this one (which is just an updated original) Also just noticed that ultimate spiderman is out for xbox. looks cool. I'll tell you if it's worth it currently playing splinter cell chaos theory and killer7. Need to play/finish a ton of other games
thought you didn't like killer7? I very much like it, it's very stylised looking forward to battalion wars (gamecube) geist (gamecube) serious sam 2 call of duty 2 quake 4 F.E.A.R. (all PC)

I love the internet.
I've loved it way before I even knew how it worked, or what it did. Back in the old days of living in Baghdad, we had no internet. We knew there was an internet explorer with windows, and we knew the internet was a great place. PC heaven. But what did it look like and how did it work?
It's not just the info, but the other main reason I love the web is communications. Thanks to the net I'm in touch with loads of friends all around the globe, some just emailing now and then, some chatting randomly, and others regularly voice/video conferencing and playing games.
And now, I'm laid on my bed, browsing the web for random tidbits at 2:30 in the morning on my laptop, and I'm enjoying it so much that I thought I'd blog it. Come to think of it, today was a good geeky day, cos my gaming buddy Dan came round and we played the Serious Sam 2 demo, and then played ALOT of Mortal Kombat : Shaolin Monks (Ko-op mode). Essentially golden axe but in the mk universe, the ko-op mode is so much button-bashing fun and arguing about screen-stealing and item allocation that it just takes you back to the good old 2D co-op games of yesteryear (double dragon anyone?). Great game. Great day. Great internet.
