    Wing Commander Successor

    Because all the kids can remember going to see saving private ryan and platoon. Theres a few mods for the original HL that use the concepts you just suggested. The Trenches is good when your playing f*cking huge 16-16 or 32-32 langames but most small net games just gets sucky. Theres a...

    Landreich?

    Blair was off the roster due to a serious injury so blames himself for not being there to try and save her. As for the ass end first during the crash think about this: Large un-aerodynamic object, burning with secondary explosions comming down fast in an atmospheric environment with gravity...

    Saddam's trial

    Hey just a thought from the uneducated masses.... If Saddam is still technically the president, and said president would be the Commander in Chief of the Iraqi military, shouldn't he also face a charge of desertion?

    Mandarins

    Nah the Kilrathi would've let them live. No need to kill an easy source of slave labour ;) Jazz's reasoning and memory was slighty skewed from the loss of family members to the Kat's. It's quite possible that grief pushed him over the edge.

    Why Computer games don't make good movies

    Let me get this straight... Young Chris has a father who turned traitor and 'mysterious space powers' and when he's just a rookie e saves the world from certain doom. Then he goes on to get the girl, go on a dangerous mission into enemy territory and single-handedly win the day again by...

    Weapons of the marines/army

    This was because of the effect of the Flashpak weapon, not conventional warheads. If you took out Ella then using torpedo's and guns does about the same damage either inside or out. (the huge advantage of course being the from the insides of the ship she couldn't hit you, and some pretty stupid...

    Why Computer games don't make good movies

    Ah I stand corrected. Goes to show what happens when you post from school without any reading material handy. Let me get this straight. Most people here start to explain away the odd occurances in the movie (typo's, completely new design, fugly kats...) Yet when somebody say.....the WC Saga...

    Why Computer games don't make good movies

    Compared to a whole new storyline with no basic at all in the history of the games? I'm honestly surprised that you, with all your knowledge of the WC universe, Would say that McAullife only had a few words. We know Knight was there, and then theres Action Stations to refer to, the same can...

    Weapons of the marines/army

    I suppose it all depends on the delivery of the energy as much as damage depends on the type of rounds used now (and presumably 2650's - 2680's :p ). We see laser and neutron bolts bunch holes through the armour of enemy fighters yet also see energy blasts that spread upon impact - Vagabonds...

    Why Computer games don't make good movies

    The problem with "games movies" is that they try to cram the story line from a 4-7 hours long game into a 1 1/2, possibly 2 hour movie. Anybody seen (or forcibly made to see as was in my case :( ) the old WB cartoon of LOTR? Remember it as utter crap for cramming 3 large novels into 2 hours? Now...

    Weapons of the marines/army

    Been a while then hasn't it. Never really noticed the first time around either, guess I didn't wait till the target filled my screen before opening up on the poor bastards.

    What I miss

    Ok but still, EA leads the markets right? So why cant they make one game with a decent STORY and that requires SKILL and TIME to play. Whenever I play a game these days when I feel like im really getting into it BAAM game over you....win? One game cmoes to mind (yet the name eludes me) where the...

    My Power Strip (pictures)

    Very nice looking, as long as you get past a fundamental law of electronics: No matter how many power points there are you'll still manage to run out of sockets when you need 'em :rolleyes:
