I've tried to make contact with the webmasters at Impact Gaming but they also seem to be in an E-mail black out too. I can't get any mail myself, so I assume similar for them. Well, all I can say is I'm not to happy about it, but I'll wait and see what happens. In the mean time just come back here to the old site address for new info until the server is fixed. Oh, and about the Miyamoto interview. There were a lot of people thinking it was on March 7, but no I clearly stated that it would be held on MAY 7 then posted most likely on MAY 8. I REPEAT, MAY 7. Got that. Thanks.
