Hi

Please include the UT2004 mod killing floor.

http://www.moddb.com/games/unreal-tournament-2004/mods

If it was on a disc I missed it; please give reference to which disc, I will have it in my collection since I am an avid PCFormat reader.

Thanks

How about including some Warcraft 3 custom maps?? I know the game is old, but the replay value is still awesome.

Especially TD, DotA, Hero Defence maps?

Here is a great site:

Sorry to dissapoint but by the time we recieved a public version of the Dec disc the Jan disc had already been pressed.

We are busy compiling the contents for the Feb disc today. So get your requests in. 1pm is the closing time.

Vista SP2 It's almost a 400MB download.
Although most people say they will wait, put it on the disc anyway so we can get comments on how the beta runs. The only gripe is that the version you stick on the disc will be 2 months old when people receive it. But hey, we understand why you got to compile a disc 2 months before it's released. Unlike some of us, you're too important to have to work a full month in December

Patches these days are way too big. The Company of heroes v2.101 is 1.7GB big! :shock:
But we know that PCFormat is very generous... :wink:

Just out of curiosity, does the January (Special) edition come out with a cardboard or plastic (like the subscribers get) cover for the DVD? Since the January issue isnt part of the subscription.

I would like to see the Football Manager 9.2.0 Patch. About 210mb. Here's a link to it http://community.sigames.com/showthread.php?t=82282 . I guess that there's no chance that this will be on the Feb disc as it was released around the 20th of December. Or will it be on?
