Hmm.. No RTS please, kind of sick of them.

Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast. Mind you, the hardware
resources needed are quite preposterous

hmm? So the graphics card has to be new on the market? Hmm..


Any other recommendations, even older, awesome Rpg's that
will take a while?

well, GeForce 2 mx 400 is what I have, with amd thunderbird
on 1,2 GHZ and I still couldn't play with highest
settinhgs... Well, If you like fps stuff (about the only
genre I dig), and don't mind older stuff, I'd say go fo No
One Lives Forever or Max Payne if you haven't tried them
yet... MP being one of the best games ever, or at least this
side of Half Life...

Playing PC games is alot like making love to a beautiful
woman paul.

Push all the right buttons, take it to the extreme, keep
practising it. After that, call all your friends around to
show off your skills and maybe play some multiplayer!

you saying it's bad?

I reckon Max Payne is great and some of the Mods for it are
great.

gigi: what mods? I have about 15 separate add on levels made
by amateurs with MP editor and even though some of them are
done tecnically nice (the matrix lobby scene for instance),
they are nowhere near the original game. But MP is such a
great game that I see my self playing it over and over
again...

www.maxpayneheadquarters.com has a good list.

None seem to be complete but some of the test levels are
good. Top game. Especially when you pause partway throught
the action so it's just spinning round you. It looks cool as
fuck

Sorry not Pro stuff. I'd insist you get the Kung-Fu mod.
It's possibly the best thing ever!!!!!

Yeah, the guy who made that actually is a kung fu student
so the moves are pretty accurate.

I did not know that. I just assumed he was an enthusiast.

Yeah, I've checked the site in the meantime, some of the
mods I already have. How big is that Kung fu mode? I've
heard great things about it before but still don't have
online connection at home...

Thanks, i've figured it out myself. I'll have to pass for
the time being but will get it once my brother puts his
computer at home online.

Oh, BTW is it just a mod or also a new map or something. I
mean, It is not just new features to the already existing
game?

It is just new features. He plays around with the bulletime
but the Kung-Fu moves he adds are something else. Wall
running, jumpin. High kicks, backwards forwards flips, no
new levels to my knowledge. If so he's hidden them. The
stuff he's got planed looks sweet as well.

They've got some stupid shit planned like a animated series
or something. I hope they can that before it's too late. Go
for Max Payne II: This times it's personal, or something
like that. I'll cry if they dothe cartoon or a film.

Yeah. And even Half-life never got a proper sequel. I mean
those missionpacks were Ok, but I still want to see a real
follow up!!!! God, to think that Might and Magic has
another sequel out (which everyone says is crap) and the
prevuious two were also put down as shit, and truly
fantastic games are not done the justice...

Thanks for the advice people. Weee.. Shit I'm going to have
to save up some cash though..

damn, I wish I had a fast ass connection, I could think of a
billion things to do with it. Downloading music, movies
(mainly really old b&w ones), playing online games etc..
shite. Hopefully I'll get T 3 or something soon.

Hell yeah. In the process of saving up for a new computer.
I'm going to go all out on this one. So it will last at
least a whole two weeks before it goes out of date. A bold
statement I know...

If you've got a guitar then you can't go wrong, unless a
string breaks but you could always use the broken bit to
garrotte someone.

Meho, when you mentioned masturbation as opposed to sex I
had a sneaky feeling you were a girl.. hmm.. I'd think
mostly girls like masturbation as they know exactly how to
pleasure themselves while guys are somewhat clueless often
in this arena..

Yeah, guys wank as necessity and substitution normally
ermm.. I wouldn't normally choose it over REAL sex..

unfunny and despaired over it...
punk: I wish i was a girl with so many horny boys around...
well, I dunno, sex is nice but I can't have it as often as
I'd like, but with wanking it's like i just pop up to the
bathroom for 3 minutes and it's bombs away...
