yeh funny thing that. i beta tested it (had forgot about that, saw my name in the manual and was like "huh!?"), and had wanted to buy it when it was new.
course being in england sorta put a damper on that plan. and if it ever did get officially released over here, it was already after i'd moved on to the next game (i think it was RA2 or warcraft3), so i never saw it in the shops.

but 5years on, saw it being sold on the UK version of amazon, thought "i remember that game, i'd wanted that when i was a kid".

only wish there were still people running multiplay games Sad

I'd host, but my Internet connection at home isn't that great for hosting games, and I'm sure the IT people at work would not like me putting a server up... Smile

I've just reinstalled bg and now I'm gonna look if I still suck as much as I used to. But I'm able to run a server. Location is in the Netherlands. server name should be Dirtbag's junkyard.

/edit bugger I'm running Vista and can't type and I can't use the keyboard (for typing) ingame.
