Heh, I read the article (and Ferno's quote), temporarily forgetting that GameSpy and IGN had merged.

FilePlanet really ticks me off. It's not so much the site itself as it is the warped game companies who think they make fans happy by releasing files exclusively to it. I'm not accusing the Tribes people of doing this, but there are some guilty parties. Know that if we ever lost DFiles.de, I'd move from PlanetDescent in a heartbeat.

Actually, FilePlanet seems to have 2 areas if you ever stopped to notice. ;) The "main" area which has all those categories for browsing/indexing (www.fileplanet.com), and the Hosted area (fileplanet.com/dl.aspx?/planet----/), which seems to consist of 2 servers exclusively for hosted sites. The Hosted area almost never has waiting times...

I've never played it, which I suppose is a minor sin in gaming terms, but I'm downloading it now.

I tried it again, it did it again. I'm gonna go murder someone now, so if anyone notices a new axe murder spree in the vicinity of the fileplanet office, that would be me.
