Just in case those responsible for the video weren't deliberately trying to prevent non-Windows users from viewing the video (by hiding the real location behind several layers of Windows Media Player nonsense):

Unix users can use mplayer to stream the video from

mms://gcrod9.streamos.com/6/ugo/ugo/games/exclusives/toyfair_dd_01.wmv

If your bandwidth isn't up to the stream, you can save the file with the -dumpstream option and watch it after it downloads.

Seldarin--You haven't seen it because it's not out yet. D&D BASIC SET is currently slotted for Fall 2004. As Fall gets closer, the actual date should be revealed....or not:smirk: .

He has the box because if he didn't he'd have nothing to show. It looks better to actually have a representation of your product than to hope people will talk to you. That would be like renting a booth at a video game fare and just sitting there with an empty booth hoping people will ask about the game your trying to push. People might talk to you anyway, but would you buy the game later with this sorry display stuck in your head?
