I played the intro, then I started downloading the original System Shock, so if the intro counts as a movie (and it seems to be) then Yes.

Wow. Normally, just after an accident resulting in paraplegia / amputation, the brain's neurons are still able to adapt that now-useless part of the sensory map to a new sense. I seem to remember a case where a patient was able to map their right hand feelings to their prosthetic arm and hand (or similar), and also of weird stuff like a newly-blind person's pain receptors on their face giving off colours, or some such. (Sorry, the details are so sparse, it must be a ong time since I read this. Probably a lecture I fell asleep in ...)

Definitely NOT that pale imitation of entertainment. It is a disgrace to the good name of dear, sweet beloved Big Brother.

Well, I never! I am shocked. Shocked and stunned. Shocked, stunned and amazed. Shocked, stunned amazed and annoyed. ...

It's a strategic game, as well as a tactical battle. Not everyone has the ability to concentrate for the lengths necessary to perform at the highest level in sport ... " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's still boring as hell. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That's because the difference in skill level is so great. It's no fun watching Chelski FC play the East Bentley Thirds ...

I love Big Brother!

Um, I dunno, I never played it.

More like a certain lady's harem ...

Is that the past tense of cold water, or the removal of said frozen water?

I think you just echoed exactly what I said ...

How do you know Baley's moves? <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nothing escapes the thought police. He will be taken to the ministry of love to be cured. That is his "holiday". (he told us) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hmm ... it's the "us" that I'm concerned about. "I was never informed. I'll have to clear it." "Look out, he's loose!" "Growel-howl!"

So is System Shock a fab game, too?

Jackson did a marvelous job splicing CGI characters into his films: that bit with the dragons picking up the horsies was kewl. I agree, at least live actors add an extra level of abstraction between out-of-control egomaniacal scriptwriter/directors (") their terrible dialogue and the poor audience. "Are you an angel?"

Psst: Sangria is Spanish, not French. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Psst. France has conquered Spain. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Psst. The French hate everyone because they are superior, especially their wines.

Aparently CS:Source jams if you try to fire a gun with no amunition, for a random length of time, too, during which you are a sitting duck ...

That's "Fan loyalty".

That's a little harsh. You shouldn't be so mean, Jags! Psst: Sangria is Spanish, not French. How do you know Baley's moves? <_<

Yeah, it could've been a contender! A Mustang or a Viper, not an Edsel ...

Yeah, especially considering some of the "material" that has been posted. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Except my ideas right? Right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Only because you stole them ... from ME!

HAL was ordered to lie IIRC, and that is what caused its weird behaviour. It's also a wink to Asimov and his Robots series. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Mr R. Daneel Olivaw. :cool:

Edsel

Adolph Wilhelm August Karl Friedrich of Nassau-Weilburg His Royal Highness wishes to plea for the enlightened nations of Europe to seek the common good, and walk the path of peace together, to ultimate prosperity for all. It would be such a shame for any beautiful people to fall out over small issues, especially in this, the modern twentieth century. Grand Duke Adolphe of Luxembourg [Less than (1) day until the deadline for Spring 1901 moves: Wednesday 12 GST (approx. 12 hours from this post.).]

Ah, but maybe films will more often be machinima than live actors ...

The Edsel was meant to be a good idea, too.

So, is there a way to get them to play while you're playing the game or do I have ot watch them separately? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I just downloaded it; the movies are packed and require DivX5+ codex, which (v.6) is a free download from divx.com. Is System Shock worth playing first? (System Shock 2 looks and sounds awesome!)
