Status: offline 		theres only one down side!, its obvious that my WitP isn't going to arrive for a few more weeks, while i expect to recieve UV in a few days!, the bad point is that i wont have any pratice for PBM!!!, now that it seems that no one plays UV PBM's anymore!

Well I certainly will be carrying on with UV PBeMs, I'm just coming to the end of my first one, which has certainly been an eye opener . So, if you need another newbie to beat around then drop me a line

For anyone else in the UK, I got 3 copies of UV from GAME, first was £19.99, 2nd was £9.99 and the 3rd last Xmas time was £4.99 on clearance. Might be worth a try if they still have stock.

GAME was the first thing i tried i phone all five GAMES in Edinburgh, two in glasgow and two in livingston none of them had any UV's!!

apart from different map sizes?

You have to understand that Matrix has a very small profit margin and unlike large game companies, continues to support and upgrade its games for a long time. For that effort, you should quit bitching about discounts and be glad to pay the full price. Quality does not come free.
I got a closet full of pretty unsupported dogs that I have bought in years past. (Microprose, SSI and so on) Got no problems with Matrix products.
