Escape From Monkey Island: Gold - Brian @ 12:56 PM
Blue's News is reporting that Lucasarts' adventure game, Escape From Monkey Island, has gone gold. This means the game is finished, and has been sent off to the presses. Usually it takes a week or two before "gold" games show up in stores.

Rock the Vote - Kedri @ 6:06 PM
Here's your chance to participate in a little election of your own: LucasArts has updated the opinion poll on its homepage with the following question: "Which of these is your favorite Star Wars PC Game(s)?" As it stands, the X-Wing Series is leading the poll, with Jedi Knight a close second. Alright, you guys know what to do. That's right, vote for Phantom Menace, easily the single most brilliant game on the planet. Riiiiiight. Many thanks to Rogue Leader, our ever-vigilant and frequent forum contributor.
Etc. - Brian @ 2:11 AM
Well, I haven't had much time to update Massassi lately due to numerous behind-the-scenes issues. In case you haven't heard, we're moving to a new server soon (well, in a month or two). I've been busy learning how to administer the thing (talk about a pain).

As some of you may know, I used to be a pretty avid perl programmer, although I've since moved to PHP. However, when I was into perl, I programmed and released a freeware free-for-all links script that runs on your web server. You can see an example of it if you click here. Anyway, I've updated the links script to version 1.2. If you would like to download and install it on your server, feel free to visit Script Central and download it. Please note that I don't provide tech support on this script. If you haven't ever installed a perl (or CGI) script, you may have problems, but if you have, it will be pretty easy.

Obi-Wan: All Shook Up - blujay @ 2:55 PM
Adm. Canuck of Obi-Wan Network posted this today about Obi-Wan:
My source in LEC has informed me that the news of Shaw leaving the Obi-Wan project to be true. He also mentioned of the glyph system to be removed and more action shall be placed in the game. More like JK saber combat. On a final note, it could be that Obi-Wan may be pushed back further and redesigned for PS2 or XBox, but that is unconfirmed. Looks like Obi-Wan is still deep in hot water.
*sigh* Will Obi-Wan ever set a steady course?

New Jedi Knight Multiplayer Level: WhimSicAL - Kedri @ 1:14 PM
File: WhimSicAL
Author: Alan "frae7" Young
Screenshots: Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2
Description: This level was a level that I just went with, so to say: I just opened JED and started from scratch. There is really nothing special here, just a tight place to kill some gamers! There are a few secrets and one "Evil-ly Placed" Armor. The one thing I like about this level is its small enough for 1 on 1's and big enough for 3-4 people. This is a good gunning level as well as for sabers! Enjoy!

"Jedi Knight still stands as the best planet side Star Wars game ever" - Brandon @ 6:25 PM
It seems that my previous post has somehow disappeared. Anyway, over at pc.ign.com there is an article about Jedi Knight. Here's a clip:
Also, no other first person shooter has come close to Jedi Knight's dizzying sense of scale and its vast levels. Unlike dungeon-based engines like Quake and Unreal, Jedi Knight goes on and on in all different directions. Even better, there is a thrilling rush of vertigo when you look down the side of a building or into a chasm. Even though you can always reload if you fall, you'll feel a strangely tangible sense of dread when you're working your way across a precarious set of beams or a narrow ledge on a cliff. I think Jedi Knight put something in my drink, because I don't get this way playing other first person shooters.

Well, due to a very unfortunate, and unnoticed until now, file upload error, the tutorials page is currently incomplete. I'm going to have to rebuild it. It could use reorganizing anyway...but...*sigh*. Until it's done, you can access the tutorials in primitive form here.
