Well, I've bought some pretty bad games for my C64 too, but those were between 1/4 and 1/2 of the price of PC games, so it doesn't "feel" so bad. I use the enjoyment vs. expense ratio to measure what I feel as the "worst"

It's a toss up between NWN1, Deathtrap Dungeon and Tombraider III

The average life expectancy of cats just dropped significantly.

Wasn't there some "Floating Text"'s above the prison guards, generally telling you to not go in there in the first place? I seem to remember being shredded, just because I walked past the door opening and one of them could see me. They don't really encourage visitors and the guys behind bars more or less deserve to be there. You may or may not discover why they are there. I never did try the prison break thing after my first nasty surprise...

56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... 56... It's heading in the right direction. Quick! Somebody lock up the beta testers and throw the keys away

Unfortunately, one of the best melee weapons (The Mega Power Fist) in the game is using your hand-to-hand combat skill (if I remember correctly). Otherwise, the Ripper (Sp?) is quite nice. Using a Laser Pistol and the Ripper Chainsword in combat, I could create a pretty good imitation of my Imperial Guard Captain...

I don't particularly like 40K. I read the rules, but the price of the minitures to play the game was prohibitive. I rather see a nice near future hardcore sci fi CRPG. Thats the beauty of it, you don't need the miniatures to play a crpg. No painting, no cutting, no super-glueing your fingers together... (said the guy who has a 24 squad Valhallan army :blush10: ) Do yourself a favour and grab some of the old source books if you can, Rogue Trader, Slaves to Darkness, The Lost and the Damned etc.

Bad Karma? ... There is just no escaping HM Revenue and Customs. Lady Di didn't, Mark Langford didn't...

... We should start a lobbying group, to maximise our voices and the impact of our oppinions I am all for Obsidian taking on some of the darker sides of the Warhammer 40K universe (as if it had anything else).

It's called "evolution"...

Nethack 3.4.3 I had almost forgotten how fun this game is

We are proud to announce: "Hollywood 2" Nah, too many sequels. And Hollywood whines about dropping profits? Heck, I haven't even seen Pirates of the Caribbean 2 yet... I think I'll pass on this too.

Now that would be a match made in heaven I don't really know this guy, but he sure does know the right things to say

From wikipedia: Catfish belong to a superorder called the Ostariophysi, which also includes the Cypriniformes, Characiformes, Gonorynchiformes and Gymnotiformes, a superorder characterized by the Weberian apparatus. ... Yes, I know it's not really a catfish.

We miss You Art Blog...

And now it's up to 64 again... You have to give the guys that, they do testing that puts many "commercial" products to shame (especially when you check their bug tracker what the issues are that they find)

Nevermind the vagt plan, but what is there in the SKAL SE! file?... And no, I'm not posting me desktop. It's the plain old blue classic Windows desktop (since this is my work computer, which is used for presentations to clients).

He does seem to have a dislike of Brahmin though... I always find that "guard the brahmin from the wolf pack" quest unnecessarily difficult, because my team mates decides to genocide all bovines before the lupines get a chance to do it. Once the Brahmin go hostile, I end the combat with a few well thrown hand grenades - Grenade: *Boom!* Brahmin: *Splat!* Gorth: *Reload!*

Not sure if this is the one you are looking for... when I get back to my Nvidia equipped machine, I'll see if I can find the equivalent setting there. It's the one called "Wait for vertical refresh" I think.

Sounds suspiciously like the old Warhammer 40k "Epic" system... Nothing like trampling the little imperial guardsmen and pointy eared eldar infantry underneath the massive feet of my Gargants.

Does your controller recognise more than 127Gb? It might not be Windows that is the problem... That I should ever utter those words!

Awesome game :'( Anyone play Roadwar 2000 on the Commodore 64?

From the PDF file.... 2 Gallon can of oil/pertrol mixture: Critical for signalling. The mixture will float and could be ignited with one the 5 pound notes and a match (there is more explanation in the text as to what you've got in your combined pocketses). WHat the experts don't say is how you get away from the this conflagration or what to do if the wind should push the life raft into the flames!

The anniversary game is exactly that. A remake of the original running on the Tombraider: Legends engine While the latter didn't have the sense of freedom and exploration of the original, there is hope that the remake might. Not to mention, that it would be able to run on a Windows machine without resorting to Dosbox and/or whatsitsname the 3dfx Glide emulator program.
