Someone wrote a letter to the mag (I think it was this months
actually?) asking why they never give a 100% score, their answer was
that there is no such thing as the perfect game? which is true I
suppose? we can always ask for more.......
GPL wishlist = weather? more?

First, PCGamer obviously reviewed a beta copy of the game, something they and
every other games magazine does to "bring the the first review". I haven't
heard of the game even going gold yet, and with lead times required for
publishing, the GPL they reviewed is probably not even the same copy beta
testers have today. So don't read too much into thier "review" of the game.
I'm sure the reviewer(s) didn't have a full, final release to base thier
review from.
Just another reason most PC game mags are full of it......

Ah shit, I must have just imagined it's been working fine all these
months... ;-)
Don't worry, it's perfect on Win98 (which is more than can be said for
Win98, but that's another discussion).
Cheers!
