I guess this is why it's the back page news...It's like old news update. :whistle:

Boy was that clever. If it's so old, why did no one post it? News was posted that they were going to do something, but no one had posted they arrived yet. If it's old news to you, just move on. It was new to me and many others here.

LOL. Well, yeah, it is the same CD, but I guess the cover is different. That's the part that counts. ;)

Actually, I'm not a beta tester, and my packaging is exactly the same (nothing is black and white, everything in color), with only one difference: the back doesn't say "I came through for SP2", and instead it contains a sort of "envelopey" look to it where they can print your name and adrees to mail it to you. I picked three of them up at Circuit City.

In short, 99% identical, except for the nice shield on the back. Pretty cool that official testers get different packaging though. At least they can brag to their friends. :laugh:

I must say it's kinda a crappy gift for what we went through! lol Oh well...wow my carboard sleeve says I'm a beta tester...it's the same damn cd as the one's you order...even same part number. The least they could have done was maybe flash us some gold cds liek we got with MSN 9.0 beta.

      Yes, Scoop was created to promote Coreutils for Windows. You can still see early versions of their website on the Web Archive. It was a joke that nobody took seriously. Microsoft's implementation of Coreutils, however, are built in Rust.
    • Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August

      Looks like EA's Star Wars Zero Company will be out this August by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Over a year ago, EA surprise announced that a team of former Firaxis members is working on a brand-new Star Wars game. Dubbed Zero Company, the title would have XCOM-like turn-based tactics gameplay as players manage a squad of professionals from all over the galaxy. Now, just ahead of an official announcement, it looks like the release date has leaked out. The upcoming Summer Game Fest presentation on Friday is when EA is supposed to show off the title's gameplay footage, with fans also expecting it to reveal a release date. However, the ever-reliable billbil-kun from Dealabs says they have already managed to find out when the game is coming out and what versions fans will have the option of purchasing. Per the leak, Star Wars Zero Company has an August 27, 2026, release date attached to it. The title is slated to release on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $49.99 standard and $59.99 Deluxe edition. The leaker also adds that there won't be any early access perk attached to this special edition. Pre-orders could kick off alongside the official announcement this Friday, too. For those unfamiliar with the title, Bit Reactor is developing Star Wars Zero Company with help from Respawn Entertainment and Lucasfilm Games. The EA-published title is said to be set during the "twilight of the Clone Wars." We will have to wait and see if base building and management mechanics from the XCOM series will be present here, too. "You will step into the shoes of Hawks, a former Republic officer who leads Zero Company — an unconventional outfit of professionals for hire hailing from across the galaxy," reads the game description. "Hawks and Zero Company are recruited for an operation that pits them against an emerging threat that will consume the galaxy if left unchecked. To succeed, Hawks will lead a team of uneasy allies who must set aside their differences to overcome nearly impossible odds." You can catch the Star Wars Zero Company extended gameplay reveal at the Summer Game Fest showcase that's kicking off on Friday at 2 pm PT / 5 pm ET.
    • Until Dawn 2 revealed featuring new cast, new story, and new developer

      All their other games always had a new cast and new story, so that's not very surprising. The new dev is worrisome though.

      New dev usually means more trash. I also despise that they censored the 1 remake.
