X10 screen shots looking awesome! Glad to hear you've put back the "plucked at random" DBPro winner. Congrats to the authors of the awesome 50-liners.

FPSC X10 is looking good, and it's good to see a big company like nVidia taking note.

Wow, great issue. I mean, you're almost as good a writer as Richard Davey.

FPSC X10 looks pretty awesome now, nice to see Bond1's (I think that was the dude) model in act there after his WIP thread in 3D chat, well with the cheap DX10 cards out, I might consider that if I ever get a job and money and a new computer

great issue...

though disappointed to not even see a mention about all the competition games entered two months ago (even longer for the FPSC entries).

it seems like someone somewhere would have had the time to make a download list

The winners were listed in the last issue. I'm not sure about the timescale for making them downloadable, NVIDIA may have some say in that one.

Do you seriously recommend I 'forget' about GCSE's and do this compo instead? Well, if I get screwy results, I'll sue TGC
