Ten has signed upanother exclusive game for its online gaming service, and this one might be a big one. Microprose's PC version of the popular collectible card game, Magic: The Gathering will be playable on the Internet, and TEN will be the "exclusive online site." However, this doesn't mean that you'll have to play Magic over TEN, what this means is that TEN will be hosting Microprose's GatheringNet, and will allow gamers to play for free over this match-making service. All of this Internet functionality will be available in the Magic: The Gathering Duels of the Planeswalkers expansion. ogr.com Coy

<<You need to go into the options menus hit(ESC). I was disappointed. It looks like nothing more than a graphically enhanced version of Quake.>> As always.."you duh man!" Well, I got Quake 2 up and running via your suggestions. Guess I will have to play it more than I did but you're right, it seemed an awful lot like Quake I but only a bit more choppy due to the fact that I am not using 3-D acceleration. But I don't see how Unreal is going to improve on the theme that much either. BTW, 250,000 copies of TA, that translates into about 11 million dollars doesn't it?
