Things to look forward to

I noticed two things today that will prove once-and-for-all just how sad I am.

First, amazon.co.uk is taking orders Uru, a game I’ve been looking forward to ever since I first heard about it over a year ago. It’s the next game in the Myst sequence from Cyan Worlds and, judging by the stunning screenshots, it looks like its going to be absolutely amazing. Amazon are listing its release date as 31st October, but my order is in now.

Second, Fog Creek have a new version of CityDesk in late beta. Who knew?

(Interesting footnote: judging from this, Cyan Worlds are doing some cross platform development. Linux or MacOS X?)
