Hmm.. My experience with Bungie has been very good. I suspect that if there is no info on their webpage about it, then they may not be aware that some people are haveing that problem. I suggest contacting them. How many other companies have issued recalls on their CD's cause of a bug? (Granted, this one was pretty severe in my opinion, but still...) I haven't really ever had a problem with any of ther games, from Marathon2 (on a Mac) through Myth1 (haven't gotten Myth2 yet, but will probably pick up the "total codex" as its so stinkin' cheap). -- Jon ast...@wam.umd.edu http://www.wam.umd.edu/~asterix
