Gamespy...sooooo BUSTED!
Posted Nov 12th, 08:21pm by Foe
On SecurityFocus.com they have a letter that outlines a conflict between GameSpy's lawyers, and a researcher. The researcher uncovered some bugs in GameSpy's software. The researcher has been served with a cease and desist order over his work. He gave the information to Gamespy before publishing it. They say he is in violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. (Oooooo...lol)

Enjoy!

Well, I posted this special for Garner. He just loves Gamespy, uses it for all his gaming. LOL!

Seriously though I know there are several people here who use it, myself included. When I play Q3 I look for games through it, but not anymore.

Cant let above standard talent go to the most hated games company out there now can we?

I've yet to meet anyone who likes Gamespy... anything they touch seems to go wrong. Halo tracker is powered by them and seems to be down more than up... or at least when I try and play its down...

gamespy was very very cool before. No advertising at all! (I dunno if it still have ads now) Meeting friends and playing with them..and all this cool stuff. Chatting of course (game is called Aquanox, with a small german community, they didn't release Aquanox1 in other countries)

Its cool to be in a game room with only a few people

above standard talent



Is that a compliment? Standard talent isn't really something to be proud of, so above standard is still a bit iffy lol .

It was strange..I've only seen germans in the game/gamespy (gamespy was the only place to join a game..joining from in-game wasn't comfortable)

Ok there were some ppl from UK but they played with the german version too lol
Downloaded from somewhere.

Maybe they've released the game later in Canada Crossing the ocean with a submarine takes so much time

I think that game has the best graphics of 2000 or 2001, awesome
I bought it right after it has released.
