Ummm . . . Yeah -- 7:40 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I cannot begin to list all the ways that this is terribly, terribly wrong. At least by the smell you will be able to tell that it is a Microsoft product. Thanks Slashdot, I think.

Star Trek: Elite Force 2 Demo Released -- 12:04 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Activision and Ritual have released a 119M demo of Star Trek: Elite Force 2. The demo contains two levels from the game. You can download it from FileShack (registration required). 3D Gamers also has it, sans registration. For more information on the game, check out the official site.

J.t.Qbe comments: Oh yeah, I'm grabbing that demo. I had a great time with the original Elite Force when I finally got around to playing it in January. At $5, it was a great bargain and a lot of fun. I'm looking forward to playing this one in a few years when this one comes down to $5 too!

Jedi Academy Interview -- 11:15 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

I must have missed this one whilst on vacation. GameSpy interviewed Raven's Christopher Foster and Les Dorscheid about Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy. I really hope they get this bad-boy running under WineX in a big hurry. I want to play this game!

NWN Linux Client: Beta 5 -- 9:08 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Bioware has released beta five of their Linux client for Neverwinter Nights. It includes these fixes:

• fixes the problem of shadows and floor triggers not being visible with some graphics cards
• packaged with a recommended SDL library, loading of the library is controlled through the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable in the nwn script
• improved handling of international characters

The first item on that list is the only issue I have had with beta four. I've played the single-player campaign from beginning to end with not so much as a hiccup otherwise.
