What's up with getting scooped by /.? I saw this over there before here. You'd figure we'd at least get a heads up post by David
Thank god i wrote the review last week, before GTA hit the streets. I have several friends at gaming companies. Several of them got it last week; sort of professional curtesy.

Neither David nor anybody else outside of /. knew it was coming.

Oh yeah. imagine if i posted a link like: <a href="https://www.evolutionm.net">DOOM 3 source code leaked</a>.

That would destroy all but the most fortified servers.

Amazon has updated their listing so that you can do a "search inside" for key words like Evo or whatever else interests you.
