<div class="IPBDescription">Yay ns!</div> Well if anyone reads PCGamer in here, you can notice that on page 58 in the April edition, that PCGamer talks a bit about NS. They dont say very much, but here it is:

<i>"Obviously, Half-Life isn't an RTS game. But when you play this amazing marines-vs.-aliens shooter mod as a Commander, it becomes a top-down-perspective strategy game complete with resource micromanagement, a tech tree, structures, upgrades, and a squad of teammates. Now up to version 3.0, Natural Selection is the most popular multiplayer FPS/RTS hybrid around."</i>

Well there you have it! It also includes a screenshot of the commander view. Wewt, go NS!

(for those of you who dont know, this isn't the first time NS has been reviewed by PCGamer)

I don't have a scanner, so I can't scan the page and show u guys....Anyways, I thought it was pretty cool <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    This belongs to Ye Olde News section.

    I remember seeing this somewhere in Gen. Discussion, but I'm too lazy to dig up the URL for it :/

    It appeared in (i think) PC Gamer Christmas 2002. One of my mum's friend's son got it and asked me about it. I nearly got him hooked...

    I don't really like the UK one either, all they do is take the mick out of a guy called Ciaran... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html//emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Nope. It was in the March issue of 2002, and that is how I actually got into the game(Being I couldn't d/l it or any mod, with dialup...). Thank PCG for me!

    It was in the US issues many times for the PCG Mod of the Month. At least 4 times iirc.

    Yeah, it only got mod of the month once(I think it was the first mod of the month, too).

    One thing though, is we need to pester them to put it on their CD again, for people like me back then.
