yeah, well, a lot of industrial metal is shit. After godflesh went metal(ish) and ministry and nin went mtv in the early 90s there was a bunch of sorry ass clones on both sides of the atlantic (skrew, pitchshifter, who used to be good until they abruptly went shit in '94 and i quit being penpals with them, misery loves co. Die Krupps and so on) so i really tend to dismiss any of that shit as too narrow and formulaic, especially when i discovered pigface who were still sticking to the term industrial but were willing to experiment and go out on a limb if necessary. And once you hear the original industrial music of throbbing gristle, swans, spk, daf, einsturzende neubauten and so on, you realise how laughable these clowns mostly are.

great! make sure to burn those download albums. And what happened to this band, after III (which was a brilliant album) they just went silent. What are these things cevin key is realising from the vaults? Old skinny puppy or some of his solo work?

On jedi knight 2 can you be a dark jedi? When i played JK 1 i became a dark lord but i felt bad about it so i deleted my character.
Multi player was very good. I once had a saber battle that lasted ages. I only got him because of force grip.

haha!!
you're not much of a darth lord, then!
in jedi knight the lightside offers that health-power thing, i always stuck with that.
hard time killing the end boss, though!

i just got jedi outcast yesterday, i downloaded it! it took me forever to make it work.. but once it DID:
AMAZING!
i dont know if its available on file sharing apps yet.. it will be soon though
given how excited people are about it, it'll probably get around fast, watch for it over the next few days!
in fact.. i think i'll go play it right now... later!

You were so right Ceri! I hate computers.....hate...hate.hate....hate....hate...!!!!
Its nearly 10PM here and I still can't get the game to work! I have the precise hardware required -nothing!!!!!
I'm currently downloading the specific driver as recommended in the helpfile. Version 9.0 - there's me thinking the more upto date file would be better!!
Consoles are so, so much better - at least you just put the f***ing disk in and play the damn game! When did we start messing with this game Ceri, about 4.30pm!

11:50pm - Finally got the game going for about 10mins....wasn't totally impressed with the quality of the graphics. Changed a few settings....game wouldn't play....put them back to how it was....game doesn't wanna play anymore and neither do I.
It makes me laugh - there are a list of recommended graphics card, of which mine is listed....and it says things like ... "if you have this card....then you might get problems ....so set the graphics to shitty mode!!" Practically every card listed has 'issues'.....apart from the £100-150 graphics cards. Sure - I could replace the graphics card, but not for the sake of a £30 game!
I've said it before, and I'll say it again.....PCs and games - don't waste your time on them people!
I'm fortunate that I work with computers and know what I'm doing - it makes me think how 'non-technical people' cope!
The ONLY consolation is that my PC now clearly displays a sharper 1024x768 resolution desktop, which it didn't with my other card. I'm gonna stick with my trusty PS2....wonderful machine!!
*Sigh of disbelief and frustration....* I'm not a happy Jedi tonight - I feel a great disturbance in the Force!

There can be a many thing, like did you install DirectX 8.1 from Microsoft? Are there any issues regarding the game and your OS?
Good way to find out everything via the support line. Kick their ass.
I have the game going. God bless warez, I know at least I don't miss too much if I don't buy it. Sucks like hell. Just stuck in the first 5 minute of the game. All the doors are closed, not even a clue, thoug I am not a softcore gamer. You hardly find medikits to heal yourself, and the gfx... Stupid. Pretty similar to older SW games.

Good news! The store 'Electronic Boutique' where I got the game will accept it back. So what I'm gonna do is take back Jedi Outcast, along with some other games that I can trade in, and get the PS2 titles Jedi Starfighter and Sled Storm.....
...there will be a party in the house tonight!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought Jet Force Gemini for only £12.99 the same time Jedi Chris bought Outcast. I think it has the best graphics of any N64 game. It's brilliant, anyone else here a fan?

OK, I had to ressurect this thread because I've purchased my copy of Jedi Knight: Jedi Outcast yesterday and I've seen that Chris is online. Well, it is amazing, I mean, it appeared in the UK on friday, and i got my cracked, burned copy on tuseday. Boy, I loooove hackers/ pirates. Chris: it works quite fine on my computer, but when i set the graphics on highest values it gave me some hard time. On normal level it works without any problems. What are those guys on about? I mean, my computer is AMD t-bird on 1.2 GHz, 256MB RAM and asus geforce 2 mx 400 and it still can not be comfortably played with highest graphical values... Assholes... Besides, the game really reminds me on Star Trek, Voyager: Elite Force.... Which is cool, cause I liked that one... Oh, yeah, it only cost me about one and a half pounds, which, I guess, makes it a lot easier for me to swallow some of it possible flaws, than if I'd coughed out 30 quid or so. Just thought to tell ya...
