Over the course of the last year PlanetAnnihilation has grown by leaps and bounds, with all our sections getting some form of update, except our files area, which up until today didn't exist.
After a lot of development and database work we have created a new Total Annihilation File Database, which we intend to build up into the largest source of Total Annihilation files on the planet. Currently we have just about one hundred files in the archive, including but not limited to:
- Maps - Quite a few of the maps that were released by Cavedog prior to their demise.
- Patch and Official Units - Never be without your FARK again!
- TA Promotional Materials - Movies and Wallpapers!
Thats just for starters, we plan to constantly index new files as they are uploaded to the FilePlanet by our vast selection of hosted sites, so that the files may be preserved for all time where everyone can get to them. [back to headlines]GameSpy Desktop is Live! - Pappy-R

PlanetUnreal: IN-Site - redef
The newest site to call PU its home is none other than IN-Site! They provide editorials, interviews, map reviews, and some forums for you to enjoy. Upon launch there are an outstanding 8 map reviews (21 in total), one interview, and an editorial entitled ‘An Unreal Future’. Here's a small preview of the editorial for you:
For me it didn't matter how many folloe-the-trend gaming review sites out there praising the "revolutionary" one player aspect and graphics (graphics were good however) I found the single player so excrutiatingly boring past the Vortex Rikers map. Even the multiplayer sucked despite good maps due to heaps of bugs . What I did discover however was a lonely little file called unrealed.exe. It is this file, second to alcohol that I blame all my forgotten hours of the last 4 or five years. People where now able with relative ease to create their own 3D environment, and so a community was formed
Visit IN-Site!
