Oh my, I almost had a seizure! I was browsing my local Electonic Boutique and what do I see? A whole shelf devoted to GP3 boxes. Surely it couldn't be out (fx:Gulp) *EARLY*! I've seen countless RAS posts, websites and PC games mag sstating the release date in the UK as 28th July 2000. I nervously picked up one of the boxes, OH NO, just as I feared, ITS EMPTY!!! AAAARRRHHHhhhhhhhhh...........! Then I see the (very small) print on the boxes and on the shelf confirming, "Release date 28th July 2000". Bastards........... 8-( *Peter* - http://www.cix.co.uk/~peterpc/home.html
