Expandable Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Gotta post this on JK2-World - maybe some of my visitors will swim to the U.K. just to buy the magazine :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturmgewehr Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 oh my... 94 mb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest X-Vector Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Well, I think I know how this particular JO review will turn out, it sure doesn't look like PC Gamer UK cares too much about its journalistic integrity. There's probably a pre-order coupon included in the boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Truthful Liar Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 nOooOOoo!!! Why do you Brits get all the luck Me wants... so badly... Would anyone be interested in sending the 94MB File? anyone? *devises schemes to purchase UK PC Gamer* Muwahhahah....... *sigh, there is no hope* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obi Kwan Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 All of you in the UK are obliged to make this file available to us colonists asap after you get your copies!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowbieOne Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 It escapes me why people in the U.K would get more, when the game is AMERICAN! Come on LA and Raven, that's bogus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ps2maddenman Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I could care less about the UK getting it first since we virtually get everything else in pop culture first, but maybe someone can post the 94 MB video file (.avi/.asf/.mov/.mpeg) or even send it via a filesharer so we all can reap the benefits?? I would be happy to create a hub on Direct Connect and share with forum members only if I get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowbieOne Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 So, they will have a review in a few days huh? How do they figure? The game is still in Beta. Unless of course this means the game is done, and will be out sooner than we thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUS_Tomcat Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 Beta review Also, i live in holland, i HOPE the UK version comes on sale at the same moment as in the UK But just a second, does the RED saber edition with the DVD have EVERYTHING the blue one has too, and more? So i know which one to get. Also the playable demo thing is prolly concerning regular content and not JK2 eh ? If i cn get it then iMIGHT be able to get a mirror of that movie up somewhere... Is that, legal? I will MAKE it legal no if its allowed i might UL it if i can get it by then... otherwise Post 2: BTW i wouldnt be surprise if they released the movie on the site one day later or something Or maybe the members get it too? on friday a 6 pm? just sprouting ideas here post 3: Also, they say its 94 mb, and twice as long as the current movie If it were the same quality, it'd be 3.3 x 2 = 6.6 megs... So that means theres about 85 + megs to spare for better quality movie Sounds SWEET to me, man i hope it comes here same day, probably not though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Posted February 11, 2002 Author Share Posted February 11, 2002 Matt, the editor of PC Gamer UK, told me the review will be available online after the issue's gone off sale, so that could mean we (non eu'ers) have to wait a while to see the video too. Hopefully I'll get a copy of the mag before then and I'll be able to let you know what's in the review (Matt got to play the game here in San Rafael, the lucky bastard!) and movie. Roger Ps. Tomcat, please edit your posts instead of posting new ones, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps2maddenman Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 What are the legalities of posting the scans from the magazine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Posted February 11, 2002 Author Share Posted February 11, 2002 That is illegal! I will contact Matt as soon as I have the copy and I'll ask him what I can mention and what not. I'll probably post a summary of contents or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TUS_Tomcat Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 sorry sorry I edited it and put all three in one now... I have one more calculation though, it said double the lenght, well, lets say its not exactly 2:22 but 3 minutes long, 94 megs, that means 31.33 megs per minute, tell me video specialists, is that enough for full screen? sounds like that to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agen Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 PCG UK usually gives unfair reviews of a game. they're abit biased but i'll get it for the jk2 stuff. also u can download jk2 screens of kazaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowbieOne Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I was just wondering if the American PC Gamer will have the same thing. I e-mailed PC Gamer about it. I find it odd, that they had a preview of JK2 in November, now they are not going to follow up on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK that is the reason they used to give for posting 'late' reviews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps2maddenman Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I have the 'preview' issue of PC gamer US, it has some nice pics that aren't on the official website, but it doesn't really contain anything we don't already know (now.) Hopefully this new preview will shed some light on how the multi-player is shaping up and any bugs/etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlowbieOne Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 In case any of you are wondering, I received a swift reply to my e-mail, and unfortunately it will be UK only. He also said it was a Beta review, not a gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sithcloak Posted February 11, 2002 Share Posted February 11, 2002 I will go as far to agree that they are very lucky. (This time.) But are not always so lucky. Is there any possibility of me getting a hold of one? Sithcloak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
