A strategy game based on an rpg that was based on a strategy game.

I like using it, on account of it never screwing up for me as described.

Does that make me a fanbo(y/i)?

In the not too distant future
Way down at Lucasarts
Mike Nelson and his corporate pals
Were doing thier evil arts

They started a game called Sam & Max
A really good game, but they gave it the ax
The fans didnt like this, not one bit
So they clonked him on the noggin and they shot him into space
(Let me DOWWWN!)
We'll send him crappy Star Wars clones
The worst, we can find (LA LA LA)
He'll have to sit and play them all
And we'll monitor his mind

Now keep in mind Mike can't control
When the gaming begins or ends (LA LA LA)
He'll try to keep his sanity
With the help of his robot friends

ROBOT ROLL CALL
Cambot! ("Show yourself!")
Gypsy! ("I'm not ready!")
Tom Servo! ("Hello there!")
Croooow! ("That's one 'o'!")

If you're wondering how he eats and breathes
And other science facts (LA LA LA)
Just repeat to yourself it's just a show
I should really just relax for
Mystery...Bluesnews...Theater...2000!
(twang!)

Christ, they haven't even got it ready for a demo yet and you people have already convinced yourselves you know *EXACTLY* how it will play.

I wouldn't be surprised if the lot of you said that Mario is a worthless franchise because it isn't on the PC.

P.S. Don't automatically assume I'm a console humper or something, the most advanced console I've got is a 1987 Gameboy.

I remember NetWAR doing something like this, the demo only let you have 2 classes, and you couldn't use the big vehicles.

PS. Ninja was better.

For those of you just joining us, a summary of this thread follows:

"Deus Ex 2 is teh suk!"
"U are teh suk! DX2 is teh rox!"
"I roxed ur mom! DX2 suxors!"

And so on.

Had he gotten the third star, it would have done the whole fireworks thing, taking up more time. No, it was intentional. I will, however, agree that he does pull some needlessly dangerous moves for a mere 300 points on the airships.

I've got a better idea, vote Fargo.

Fallout 4eva! Woo!

Ultima's broken now, for god's sake just let it die.

"He's just doing it to keep up appearances for M$."

Just had to point this comic your way, heh heh heh...

This was on Newgrounds a while back, and people had the same problem. You have to pay your converts, or they split. I think the rates are 200 per archer, 500? per wizard, and 50 per engineer. The more important thing is, you have to have the money to pay them left over from the *previous* round. If you earn enough for thier wages this round but you didnt have the money last round, they're gone. And my tip for victory is: 200 engineers.

Come on people, you're making Smokah cry.

"let the dev's finish the game to the point where they can release it and say that it is stable, fun and people want more of it."

That is precisely what they did for Daikatana.

asynchronous real-time turn-based hybrid combat? could that get any more vague?

Hal-Life!

Dont forget Miyamoto Musashi, hes from way before all of them.

Head to www.planethalflife.com/nostalgia/ and have a look at the early pictures (make sure you see Lumberjack Freeman). Valve doesn't have a clue how to release proper screenshots.

-note- I seem unable to reach it with IE, but Mozilla works.

I think it's amusing that nobody remembers the screenshots for original half-life...

Half-Life 2: Whole Life
The most realistic mechanic simulator ever created by Man.
heh.
