Hi Ian,
If you're going to post in a public forum I'd appreciate it if you get your facts straight. You emailed me October of last year complaining about the lack of SH3 coverage in PC Gamer. This was my response:
"Thanks for your interest in the column but it's possible you may have missed one or two. I've devoted a fair bit of ink to SH3 in the past year – I wrote a preview in the September 04 issue and my August column was dedicated entirely to the sim – but you're right to point out that I didn't write the official review for the magazine (Dan Morris is a big fan so he handled the PCG review while I contributed a separate review to Maximum PC). I also mentioned the latest official patch in my October column.
How the hell do you read "he couldn't get into it while all the great FPS games were taking his attention" into that? I thought we had a pretty civil discourse last year so I'm surprised and a little disappointed to see you misquoting me just to make some obscure point about my journalistic "hackness".
Andy Mahood
