[QUOTE="BadMojo, post: 4256337, member: 569"] I hope they were working cheap. That press release is actually pretty hilarious. So much mutual smoke blown up fundaments it's the corporate world at it's best. I get to read these at work a lot, and they're always a source of unintentional humor [I]Company A: "Hey, you know what? We're really great. We're getting ready to do some really amazing stuff that's going to blow your mind. We can't give you any details, but trust me it's great and we're great too." Company B: "Yeah. You sure are a great bunch of guys. Tall, handsome and what a magnificent head of hair you've got. We're great too and I can't wait for us to collaborate and do some Really Awesome Stuff."[/I] So, we're approaching the release of a the biggest product Wizards has put out in close to a decade AND...the Gleemax website looks like someone started it and forgot to finish a quarter of the way in. I remember looking at Gleemax many months ago and figuring that it would get better and I just gave them the benefit of the doubt. For a few seconds, I actually thought the thing might turn out to be pretty cool (I thought that about the Character Gen program that came with the first 3.0 PHB too) At least the impending failure of the chat software seems to be etched in stone. Not all is confusion and disarray, they've got one thing that should happen on schedule. [/QUOTE]
