G'bye, Mates!

Random IdHOP News Update for 3/3/02

Here it is, folks -- the last peep you'll hear from me for six weeks. I leave for Australia tomorrow morning and I just might come back someday. I've just got a couple quick announcements, and I'm out of here...

  • First off: Olympic wrap-up. The 19th Winter Olympics ended with, among other things, a couple really good hockey matches. In both the men's and women's sides, Canada beat the US in the gold medal round. But, even without a victory in hockey, the US shattered its own record for winter Olympic medals this year.

  • Next... "Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly" was recently announced, although I can't find a whole lot of details on it. Hopefully, it's Insomniac whose doing it despite their chants of "Yes, we're working on a game for the PS2 but it's top secret and it's not Spyro." More on this as it develops...

  • Then there's Final Fantasy X. Some punk gave me that right before he knew I was leaving. I've only played it for a couple hours, so I can't give a real thorough review, but what I've seen I've liked. I'll probably have a lot more to say about it in three months so I'll save it for then...

  • That's about it. When I get back, a few things are going down, like T-Shirts with the new-style logo (which isn't being displayed right now, but you can see it at http://www.idhop.addr.com/lobby/idefault.gif), and the second annual Fight Fest.

Have a nice March, and a nice April (and a nice Easter which is in there somewhere),
-- Ky
