Iga's asleep so I'll fill in.
"Once you start playing you'll wish it made you wait longer".
Halfway there!
I was cleaning out my storage container today and found Microsoft Bookshelf 96-97 Edition.
It includes, on disk, "Microsoft Bookshelf Internet Directory 96" with "Direct Links to 5,000 Internet Sites!"
The "Full Install" comes witha warning that "5 MB of space is required".
Installing now.
EDIT: So far I am getting a lot of 404 pages. Even Garth Brooks web site has not survived. Hard to beleive with the catchy URL of : http://www.tecc.co.uk/mparkes/garthbrooks/
There are no gaming news sites. So if we got into the Hot Tub Time Machine and went back to 1996 we would totally rule.
EDIT: So far not a single site is still around. Not even the ones about poultry transportation or EMFs causing cancer. No porn either.
EDIT: I found a page that is still ALIVE! It was in the "Squid" section. http://www.abdn.ac.uk/~nhi104/
I know you guys can't get enough of my storage container stories, so I'll continue.
I also found an iPhone. It was made by Linksys/Cisco.. Heh. I don;t see what all the fuss is about with these things, I tried to pinch and drag and nothing happened.
I also found 2 Sega Master Systems and 3 Atari 5200's.
EDIT: also found the instructions manual for a joystick for the TRS-80.
"When the control stick is centered and pointing up, the Joystick will return an (X,Y) value near (31,31). If you move the control stick back away from the "fire" button, the joystick will return to an (X,Y) value near (32,63).
With a little practice, you will be able to position the stick near any point on the grid... but you may not be able to hit the extact point every time."
and it goes on and on... until it gets to this part, "The following diagram shows the points which may not be attainable with the Joystick..." and then it goes and gives about 13 X, Y coordinates wherer teh Joystick won't work.
The Hand of Odd lives!
I don't want Hand of Odd. I want Stranger's Wrath dammit!!!
"Platforms haven't been decided upon yet, but they're considering iPad, Android, Facebook, PC and Mac -- console releases are unlikely due to the nature of the genre. "
" """ :"
Well that's fucking dumb, no? Its a console based franchise...put the game on consoles. Its been proven strategy can work on consoles. Anyway, that's really cool that they're bringing Oddworld back...was never my favorite series, but it always had an air of originality to it. BTW has anybody here played Beyond Good & Evil HD? I have it but still haven't gotten to it.
^ I don't think the people re-making the Oddworld stuff have a hell of a lot of capital behind them. Could be wrong, but that's the impression I get (which maybe why they are sticking with the non-consoles platforms, which have faster launch times and less cost to develop. They are at least "registered" to work on consoles:
"We are registered developers on the following platforms …
SCE – PlayStation(r) 3
SCE – PlayStation(r) Portable
Nintendo – DS
Nintendo – Wii
Microsoft – XBox360"
You don't what?
You can have Stranger's Wrath right now. Yet you can't have Hand of Odd.
Thus Hand of Odd being in the works>>>>>>>Stranger's Wrath HD.
Look what came in the mail!

I'm at the end of Dead Space 2. The end picks up quite nicely compared to the middle section of the game and is really impressive enough to give me a semi. Looks like I'll be starting a new game soon!
Dead Space 2 is done! Took me 13 hours. Really solid game just like the 1st, but doesn't have the WOW factor the original had cuz, well, its exactly the same gameplay-wise, and even the setting is very similar. It does have more action and more "what the fuck?!" moments though. The end was really sweet. I'd say its an 8.5 title....too similar to the 1st, 3 years later to get a 9 like DS1.
Good god what do I play now....this is my current backlog:
This isn't counting the handful of Xbox 1 games I also have to play. This is why I'm almost happy I don't have a Wii or a PS3 right now.
Shit. It was Mortal Kombat.
Buzzkill.
You gotta remember, these were the guys who put out a near unplayable version of both Munch's Oddysey and Strangers Wrath on Steam.
Oh yeah? I didn't know. Is Lanning still involved?
Might be.
