Hello all, Many many moons ago just before I stopped playing X there was an announcement that Egosoft were developing the series for the xbox. At the time this was just prior to the 360 launching (It's been a while since I've been here!) Is there any update on that? I'm assuming if it was xbox 1 the...

Merroc is right, it was the Devastator in Dune, not a Mammoth tank; although the Devastator is obviously the "father" of the Mammoth. The Sonic Tank is also the "father" of the Disruptor from Tiberian Sun. Many units from C&C can be traced back to Dune which is only natural considering both games we...

Happy belated birthday!

Aye!

(even Hollister?)

Holly, he never gets old does he?

Anyway, it's been a while since I posted here (At least since November 15th, just got a PM from graphil!) so I was wondering what's been happening?

What are Egosoft upto? Or is at all hush hush? xbox version?

Anyway, hope you're all doing fabulous.

You were gone?

Back in the mists of time (1984 ish). I was a first year student at Liverpool Uni.... Hope I manged to raise some smiles out there,and act as a cautionary tale to warn of the dangers of unwanted cigarette stubs. To those who don't believe me. check the archives of either the Daily Post or the Echo....

Excellent link, thanks graphil. It'll come in handy when I have to, yet again, call NTL to sort out their mess ups.

Erm, not that it's much of a contribution, but

On tap ATM is red wine; currently on bottle number 2. Surfing the web and listening to the freespace OST.

Two cats here, Paddy and Cole. (And cole must be a contender for the hairies cat in the world; his tail hair is over 3 inches long.)

As Euclid and PJK have already said, in terms of "oh shit oh shit oh shit I'm gonna diiiiiieee" then FreeSpace 2 cannot be beaten... That first trip through the nebula through the Knossos jumpnode... "Where's Zeta Wing?" Brown trousers time... and of course "Dive! Dive! Dive!" Best opening intro EVA...

Before you critisize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. Then, if they want to come after you, you're a mile away, and they have no shoes! A good one, but I prefer: "There is only one way to describe the effect the smell of Ankh-Morpork has on the visiting nose, and that is by analogy. Take a tart...

Build a man a fire, and you keep him warm for the night. Set a man on fire, and you keep him warm for the rest of his life.
