Q: How did Q/A let that crappy box art pass? Thats all the marketing you need!
J/k, just being a shit. I salute you Marweas.
Marweas: do you agree that the computer game industry sucks now
Not a smurf. Just being squirrelish. If you don't know who I am, you really don't know as much as you think you do about Tribes.
I have no idea where that box came from or who made it. Worst POS I've ever seen. Every single box design submitted by TW was better than that crap.
Edit 2: What you said above about shipping games before they're ready is true, but still wrong. The company that can afford to spend as much time polishing as creating will always win (See Blizzard, BioWare, Valve) and companies that cut corners will always lose (See VUG, Take2, etc.)
The demise of Tribes, and my job, and Thrax's job came about as a result of a completely unrelated power / political struggle. If you really want to hear about that, I'll see what I can remember.

3D Realms will really be kicking ass once Duke Nukem Forever comes out. They've been polishing that for years.
