Amazing new graphical upgrades to EVE

Here's a great video to wet your appetite on what the pre-Kali upgrades (Revelations) to EVE will bring. If that is what CCP can still do with DX9, I can't wait to see EVE running on Vista with DX10!

Some great photos of the EVE Fanfest 2006!

Before you start hating me for having had the chance to attend this year's fanfest, let it be known that the following pictures are not from me. This lucky son of a gun had the chance of flying in to Iceland and took some great photos of the fan festival. Additionally, he took some videos and you can watch them also.

And of course, here are the official fanfest photos from CCP, courtesy of MMORPG.com.

Hopefully by this time next year I'll have my own photos and videos, and memories! I just have to plan for it, and convince my better-half that I deserve to go. This shouldn't be too hard right? I mean I did convince her to go to Vegas earlier this year. But then again, Celine Dion and O were on our agenda and last time I checked neither offer venues in Iceland. Damn!

Anyways, until that happens, I'll just have to read about it. Which reminds me, MMORPG.com has got some great articles on the fan fest, here, here, and some amazing ship comparison here.

New Poll: which E:ON article was your favorite?

Now that we've had a chance to roam through and thoroughly read the fifth issue of E:ON, I was curious to know what was the one article that stood out for you.

Was it one of the Chronicles? Which are getting better and better with each new issue. Or was it one of the 3 guides? Or maybe the update on Darwin's Contraption?

In my case, picking one over another was quite hard, but I would say that "Confessions of a TV Junkie" is the one that sticks out for me in this issue. I guess it's the "behind-the-scenes" tidbits from Spiral Junkie that made the difference in my choice. But I do have to say the Chronicles were particularly well done; I really couldn't put down the magazine until I had finished reading one from beginning to end.

Please take the time to vote (see Current Poll on the right) and let me know your thoughts by commenting. Let me know what you think of the issues so far, what you'd like to see and read about. Now you may think that I have something to do with E:ON, but in reality I don't, except as an avid reader and someone who wants to do his part to see this magazine prosper and improve.

As such, I'll make sure all your constructive criticism and your praises get to Zapatero.

Can't wait for the next issue! Now get to that vote booth!
