Well that was a total waste of time - since when was posting a press
release considered as having had a look at a product?

Cheers!

A First Look is just some general info and screenshots on a game. When we
have seen some code moving it's called a Preview. We DO mention that on the
site ;)

It'd be nice to mention it here in the newsgroup as well . . .

Hmm, pardon me for thinking a "first LOOK" actually included "looking"
at something, how could I possibly have arrived at such a ridiculous
conclusion. I should have known to read through the small print on the
site rather than leap to the obvious conclusion.

Cheers!

PS - You really might want to change the title, it is extremely
misleading! :-)

wallace, you're still a bozo. i checked out the site. here is their order:

1.  first look (implies...a first look. duh.)
2.  previews
3.  reviews

if you find this "extremely misleading", then you might find your time more
well spent picking lint out of your figgy pudding, putz.

>wallace, you're still a bozo. i checked out the site. here is their order:

Wolfie-baby, just how exactly would you understand the term "first
look". The terms "look" and "first" don't imply that someone has had a
"LOOK" at it, and for the "FIRST" time? If I choose to tuck an
explanation away on my website of why my sim review section is called
"Big girl's blouse" (for whatever reason I choose to pluck that term
from the ether...) it doesn't mean I would be correct in calling it
that.

Go see if you can rustle up the family brain cell and grasp this
simple basic concept of language, vocabulary, meaning and accepted
usage. Then after you've had some rest from this massive mental
struggle come back here so I can get another laugh at whatever your
addled grey matter comes up with as it strives for comprehension.

Cheers!
John

PS - Good to see you back :-)

regarding Jay Wolfe's, um, post:

Virtual Invisibility"

PLONK!

stop typing so fast, it's hard to keep up. and don't get me wrong - i like
bozo. a lot. maybe too much.

...uh...remember that stewardess in oslo that you met several years
ago...dad.

your basic complaint was that their "first look" wasn't a "preview". they
make a clear distinction between the two.

shucks. i missed you. my baseball duties are beyond the mucho overtime state
so i can afford some time to bang your monkey and pull RAS's own little
crepe-maker's tail. yes, i'm talking about you, ymenard.
p.s. - i hear Big Girl's Blouse 200 is rendition supported AND has forced
feedback. woof.

Ermmmmm, how did you know about that?! Actually I met Kim Wilde (the
singer) on a trip to Oslo several years ago, and yes if she'd paid me
the slightest bit of attention I'd happily have helped her to be your
mom! :-) I never thought she was *so* cute when seeing her on TV, but
in real life she was a complete honey!

Not at all. My basic complaint was that their first look by it's very
name implied it was a press release. Had the announcement on r.a.s.
said "New press release up on High Gear" I'd have known not to waste
my time and been cheerful enough.

In your absence you probably didn't hear that a sense of humour is no
longer allowed in the group here. You can be as mental as you like
otherwise, but when you point your browser at this group you check
that sense of humour at the door mister!

It's nice not to take things too seriously...

Cheers!
