Here's a question: Looking Glass has since signed a contract with ERTS for a few games. If Thief is a smash, do we have any rights to a sequel? Did we get all rights to the game? Anybody know how this particular deal was written?

Well, hard to believe but: I walked into the Exxon on University Ave. in Berkeley. Only two computer-type magazines on the racks--GamePro (I think) and MacWorld. Both had Lara on the cover! What are the odds, eh? Anyway, I wonder if this is a case of the hardcore gamers not realizing that the thing will sell and sell and sell to the more casual users? Just a theory, but a lot of hard core gamers have lost a lot of money on GTIS, MPRS, even ATVI ... Meanwhile, us slobs have raked it in with THQI and wrasslin' ... :) Btw, anyone hear any buzz about WCW Nitro for the PC? If so, could you bring it over to the THQI thread? Thanks. Marc
