Covered morning short positions: New short positions SDLI, EMLX.. looking at SCNT also but not in yet. Of course did not go long the morning short postions as they did not trigger the buy limit and they were cancelled since. On the long end PEB, earnings play from November second which I no longer own is up another 5 points. EIDSY mentioned before is up 8 7/16 and a 'poor man's' EIDSY you might try MWY which is up modestly but at 100% of day's high.
Last time I semi-tapped on the table it was VSH and the time before it was ALLR.. I 'tapped the table" on EIDSY once before and although it might be late for today, I must say this company is a phenomenon. Just check the video games and for the christmas season they are all best sellers. I do hold a position in EIDSY but only from this morning but the stock speaks for itself. It's made as much percentagewise as any net stock anywhere without the aggravation (look at the chart) techstocks.com
It's the End of the World as We Know It
Abomination Shipping to Stores Now! From the Creators of Gangsters: Organized Crime
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 3, 1999--Eidos Interactive, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of interactive entertainment software, today announced that the real-time tactical strategy game, Abomination, is now shipping. The PC game was developed by UK based Hothouse Creations, creators of Gangsters: Organized Crime. Abomination combines team based tactical strategy with real-time action, and features unprecedented customization, tactical variety, and multiplayer capabilities.
Players can distribute experience points equally across the team, or focus on one or two characters, making them especially proficient in selected skills. Players can equip them with various specialized weapons and tools.
Players control a team of eight genetically-enhanced Marines through up to 150 campaign missions, traveling through 1.2 million possible combinations of increasingly bizarre urban environments, searching, destroying, and learning new skills in order to prevail over a virulent plague and a mysterious cult sweeping the country. As the game advances, players will face increasingly horrific Brood creatures.
Abomination supports co-operative multiplayer action for up to four players through campaign and standard multiplayer modes, using Internet, LAN, and modem connections. Players can dynamically drop in and out of the campaign. Also planned are several player versus player games, including Capture the Flag, Hold Position, Lone Runner, and traditional Arena play. Multiplayer mode is supported on Eidos' online gaming service, eidosgames.com
''This is a deep game,'' says Steve Goss, lead designer and producer, ''the environments are as detailed as your control over your squad. Abomination delivers comprehensive research, resource management, and team management and offers the full gamut of strategy genre gameplay.'' Goss' past credits include pivotal roles in the creation of X-COM: Terror From the Deep and X-COM: Apocalypse.
Abomination has a suggested retail price of $39.95 and is expected in stores this week.
