With the Quake engine. No time for more post, Dr. Jones.

Now, I know people don't come here for the latest and greatest. There's too much going on away from the computer for me to even think I could cover that. So I know this is not the first time the majority of you reading about the M.I.A./Diplo mix tape (CD), whichever. So at last count, 4 out of 5 of you have heard of this record. Good.

I've heard a few tracks, and they lived up to the hype, so I was hoping to fund something besides terrorism and purchase this CD rather than go downloading the tracks. But this album had a limited release, so I e-mailed Diplo (one and the same) over at Hollertronix, and asked about a re-release to benefit tsunami victims in Sri Lanka. (If you've read even 10% of the hype, you would've known that's M.I.A.'s homeland.)

Diplo responded positively, so it looks like something is in the works. We'll have to wait and see what develops. Maybe a re-release, maybe Vol. 2, who knows. I'd like to get a copy of the record, and make another contribution to the relief efforts.

M.I.A.'s full-length album is expected out this year, don't ask me when.

Maybe I will look into this stuff after all. From what I'm reading it seems that there are a number of interiors you can reach with the jetpack that you can reach no other way. Including Liberty City! It looks like credit for the find is going to Edison Carter, who is kind enough to divulge his secrets. It seems that these interior environments were created for cutscenes in the game. You may need Action Replay or Gameshark to reach some areas.

Edison Carter also discovered some brand new cheats. Cars Fly. All Traffic is Fast (Sports) Cars. Full Weapon Aiming While Driving. Nice job.

Two links above changed. Linked directly to Edison Carter's site to replace. --LL 7/21/07

I'm going to just laundry list a bunch of links here for my own reference, and anyone else who happens by.

SA Hidden Interiors. This was a dead link. Found file elsewhere and changed the URL July 21, 2007.

Note: No page on my blog receives more hits than this one. So I got rid of the dead links. And I changed all references of "edisoncarter" to "Edison Carter", that seems to be the name he calls himself over at his site. Enjoy. --LL, 7/21/07
