Nintendo Gaming / Lan Party for MK:DD and NFS:U in Austin, TX

I'm having a Lan Party for MK
D on the 18th (Tuesday) in Austin, Texas. Here's some small details..
2 friends from Kansas are driving down and one of them is bring a realy nice projector. We're completely clearing out a room here, just for the Lan party, and will be projecting MKD onto a full wall. Complete with a home theater sound system. At the moment, we will have 2 GameCubes, 2 copies of MKD, a projector, and a TV. We don't have broadband adaptors yet, and we're not sure if we'll be able to find any. If not, it will still be fun and we're have lots of tournaments. There will also be a few other games available like Need For Speed: Underground, but the main focus will be on MKD.
If you live nearby and want to come, respond here. If you live farther, and want to drive here.. that will most likely be fine too. We'll just to talk about it.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:The Dissapearance of XGRA

Wow. I guess I'm the only one that is realy into the XG series after the first one. I admit that Acclaim is going downhill, but i have such an addiction to fast racing games. I want to at least rent a play the game. Come on.. it's got to at least be better than XG2, which was the worst of the series. If they want to cancel the game, then fine. But the least they could do is at least confirm it's cancelation.

Nintendo Gaming / The Dissapearance of XGRA
« on: November 03, 2003, 09:03:30 PM »
So it all started in October, 3 days before the game was to be released at EB Games. I had my copy reserved... pre-bought actualy. A friend IM's me on AIM and informs me that he checked EB's webpage, and the game is pushed back. I look, and sure enough... pushed back to my birthday... Oct 22nd. This is surprising to me because I've never known a game to be pushed back... 3 days within it's release date. Especialy sence the game is already out on the PS2 and the XBOX. This is just the start though...
So I wait untill the 21st and call to see when they'll get it in the next morning. They inform me that the game has been pushed back again till mid November. I send a email to Acclaim and ask them what the deal is, and I get no responce. I think about deciding to not even get the game when it's finaly... if ever.. .released. I called a bunch of different places around this time and got many different answers as to what the release date is. Nov 4th... Nov 17th....
So yesterday, the 3rd.. I decide to go to EB's webpage again and see if there is a new release date... and the game is gone. Not on the release date scedual at all. I do a search for the game and it shows the PS2 and XBOX versions... but no GameCube version. I do some searching and find a number and call EB's worldwide headquarters... and they confirm that it isn't even in their computer system anymore. I do some more searching and call Acclaim's headquarters.. and all they can tell me is that they don't have a release date for the game.
So this is where I am, with absolutely no information as to what has happened or will happen to this game. Has it been cancled for the cube? Are they just tweaking it to improve on the framerate problems that the other 2 console versions had? I dont' have answers. I know it's to be the last Acclaim game to be made for the GameCube. I've always loved the XG series and I own every game except for XGRA. I was thinking that maybe someone here might know, or know of a way to find out the status on this game.
