A small favour from the uk or the continent

Lived Through the Heat Death
So if anyone that lives in the UK or generally in Europe could pick up the last issue from PCZone and dig around a bit, reporting if there's anything special on it, i would thank you very much. I would do it myself, but it still hasn't reached my shores.



Although it's a gaming mag the reason behind it isn't gaming related, so i posted this here. Seems the mag has a bit of a surprise on it.
 
Hey, I'm a subscriper to pczone and have the latest one, ill go get it now, what do you need?

Edit:

A summary of the contents:

Crysis - Mainly focusing on the multiplayer
Coming soon - Company of Heroes - Basically Dawn of war but in WW2.
Some previes screens of Sam and Max - Looks like its coming on well.
Kane and lynch - General game info

Thats obviously not everything, but can you give me something specific to look for?

Thanks, now look into the features or the small blurbs for an interview with someone from NMA :wink:
Woohoo! Who is it? Is it you, Briosa? You gonna be naked and famous? Wicked. :)
 
Ooh, found it! An interview with Odin about his role as the web master of a fan site. Unfortunately, I have no scanner, so i will transcribe it:

Name: Atle Wilson (Odin)
Job Title: IT consultant / web master of the Fallout fan site No Mutants Allowed.
Working on: nma-fallout.com
Age: 31
Experience: NMA is Odin's first fan site.

PCZ: How did you get started?

Odin: "I was browsing on the net looking for news regarding Fallout 2 and found No Mutants Allowed. I would check the Interplay forums regularly and ended up scooping the Fallout fansites, so I decided to offer my services to NMA."

PCZ: What's the pay like?

Odin: "I don't make a penny from the fansite, it's all done by choice, and the hosting is paid for by our ads. The DNS, however is paid out of my own pocket, so you could say I pay for the project."

PCZ: What does your job involve?

Odin: "We spend most of our time browsing forums for news about Fallout 3, which is currently in progress at Bethesda. As we've been around for some time, we've got to know most of the developers, and as such we get tips which we then post about."

PCZ: How rewarding is your job?

Odin: "The work in itself cqn be very rewarding as you bring a service to people who're looking for that product. But what's really rewarding is the fact that you get to meet alot of interesting people - developers or fans from Fallout."

PCZ: What's the most annoying part of your job?

Odin: "People expect you to know everything about the Fallout world. Plus, we get alot of people on our forum asking the same questions over and over again."


Now about naked Briosa...

Awww, that's nice, man. Here you are, finally in the spotlights and all, and you still find the time to think and talk about me, good ol' wishy-washy alec. That's friggin' nice, Odin. I love you too, man. :wink:

Anyway: I'm glad for Odin and NMA. Is this the first time that the site gets such attention?
