Demos galore
Man, this is the week of the Demo. First Warhammer, then Tribes? Played Warhammer for hours yesterday and will probably play it some more today, it's just that damn good. On the other hand, downloaded Tribes demo and it promptly locks up my system
Posted a help-me-I'm-an-idiot message on the Tribes forum so maybe I'll get it to work later.
Still plowing away through Doom 3 and I give it a 6.5 out of 10. It's just too damn dark and the enemies are just too cheap. Feel like I'm playing a souped-up version of Serious Sam. The pick-up-the-item-and-monsters-spawn-in-front-and-behind-you is OLD! How about programming some A.I. Carmack? You can program the most incredible looking game, but can't program intelligence? Personally, I think the best A.I. in a game ever is Half-Life (the original). Still remember hiding around a corner and one of the guards flanked me and threw a grenade in my hiding spot. Good times...
Back to Warhammer, that game is really going to kick ass. Just marines on marines is fun (skirmish), can't wait to try all 4 races against each other! And that damn Squiggy... Ooooooo, I'll get back to you! (shakes fist at screen) Love the fact you can paint your units (not THAT unit). I hope there is a way to import your own paint schemes. I have some 40k marine figures that I painted in camo that look pretty cool, would like to put that in the game.
Well, off to some more gaming...
