Hello, I am really excited about planetside, I have been reading these forums and posted a few times on the official forums at thebigbaddude2k but I rarely post. I am wondering if anyone has the gamespot videos to please contact me on AOL. My name is THEKOOLDOOD. Also does anyone know of a free game that can hold me over until the release of planetside? I would like to play a game like infantry but now you have to pay for it and I can't because I have no job (I want to concentrate more on school without work getting in my way) and I only have enough money saved up for planetside when it comes out and a few months of subscription.

A free game is here (www3.neveron.com). It's a massive empire-building game set in 3225. You control a small empire at first, but you can build it up. This game takes patience, and strategy. Read the tutorial, it is pretty fun. Massive mech and tank battles. You're not going to be a superpower overnight. I have been playing for a few months and I am level 3 on a scale of 0-13. The level 13 has like 1000000 times my stuff. It's loosely related to BattleTech and Mechwarrior.

Mainly text, but battles have graphics (however poor they may be.) Battles use a big hex grid with icons representing units. You fight in phases, a phase for moving, and one for attacking. If your obsessed with flashy lights, big explosions, and a game that you can r00l in 6.8 seconds, don't click the link. Go to Nev forums, ask for help. I'm Flameseeker there too. :)

I can totaly atest to the $25 subscription for gamespot. Its worth every penny. Specially if you have high speed access for DLing movies and such.

I understand that it may be my problem but i can't get enough money for gamespot because my parents want to to concentrate on school more than a job. I only have enough money for planetside and a few months subscribtion. If I pay 25 dollars I may only be able to play for one month or so, and my birthday is 7 months away. I know this is my problem, but can someone help me with it by just contacting me on AOL. I m online right now.
THEKOOLDOOD or THE KOOL DOOD one of those will work.

gold you should host those movies on a site and let me download them.

GoldFox

i already have
i was unwilling to give links at first cause my bandwidth would go thro the roof
but i dont care
everyone should be able to see this awesome game in action
i dont know why SOE are letting gamespot charge people for them :confused:
movies like these would make interest for planetside wayyyy bigger

if someone could drop those gamespot vids down on kazaa, i would greatly appreciate it

That's an awesome thing to do Goldfox.

However, I would hate to see you and PSU get into some sort of trouble for hosting these movies. My favorite NHL 2k3 site received a cease-and-desist letter from IGN for allowing them(forum users) to post reviews that were made available only to members. It is very likely that Gamespot would take a similar action.

do it kazaa then, it's harder to detect that way.
i Personaly hate people who excesively pirate stuff, but this is utterly ridiculous, they shouldn't be hogging these vids, the main site should at least get a few good ones, so, please, drop some on kazaa please.

If I manage to get them from gold, I'll open up Kazaa for a couple of days and host them for anyone that would like to get them.
