I got an email from "Vivendi" - sounds like a frikkin Italian car company.
Shouldn't it have been Dynamix?

Anyway, looks like we can still play MP til October 5th (10/5 to you crazy
yanks) at the earliest.

Thought it might be of interest and I apologise for posting on topic.

To tide you over till the game's release on October 5th we've released the

The Dynamix is dead. Long live the Dynamix.

No, but more seriously... Sierra and Vivendi Universal are the sole owners
of the license, as Dynamix died after T2. Vivendi is also responsible for
games like AVP2. You can see the list at vugames.com.

Their "demo" is basically the MP beta, with some of the bugs fixed. So it
should be the same, basically.
