His site isn't visible in Firefox. Unfortunately it is in IE. I just cannot
believe he is writing a version for the Xbox360.

Dunno..firefox is all I use, so go figure. Works fine here.

I don't own an Xbox, so I have no frame of reference..

If I did, I prolly would get Oblivion, though I hear the PC version is
much better, if ur PC can run it that is. =P

How is his massively multi-player version of Battlecruiser coming along? You 
know the one that would blow away Everquest. It was due out a half dozen 
years ago.

Speaking of Oblivion:

I've honestly never wondered what Wile E. Coyote would do if he were a
character in Oblivion, but this would be my guess.

It is if you have Adblock installed and the Filterset.G addon. I've examined
the rule which is blocking it but its huge and can't see what it doesn't like
about that site. If I disable it and load the page it works. If I then save a
complete offline copy of it, turn Adblock back on again and the load that save
copy it opens so it must be something live its pulling in. Anyway, I'm not
missing much. Just wanted a gander at his "new" releases.
