Hi Thomas. Thank you for this very well thought out response to my question, it pretty much agrees with everything I have heard and read up to this point. The good things you point out about linux are exactly what I would have thought as are the few limitations, and these limitations are the

Hi Yohandy. Dark Resurrection rocks in my opinion. It is actually the first fighting game I have seriously tried, didn't really know if I liked the genre or not but have found out I do lol. You have way more games than me at this point so unfortunately I have no suggestions to offer. If I can

If you're looking at the psp... you really don't have a lot of options. Fighting games aren't very common on the psp at the moment. - Original Message - From: Tom Randall [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'Gamers Discussion list' gamers@audyssey.org Sent: Wednesday, August 20, 2008 9:46 AM Subject:

Hi Bryan, Thanks for the encouragement. Yeah, I have done a lot of thinking about this new and improved side-scroller, and after reading all of James North's development documents I felt the game was just too plane for my tastes. I have seen a lot of new and more modern ideas applied to

SOunds great. One request, please make the game easy to install on linux. Too often the new linux user has to compile sources and I think the installer should be as automatic as it is on windows. Just my thought. Mike --- Gamers mailing list __ Gamers@audyssey.org If you want to leave the

Yeah, that does sound fun. And don't forget Samus from the Metroid games. She has the same ability, albeit in a different form. She can fire a magnetic beam from her arm cannon that attaches to nearby grapple points. Then she starts swinging back and forth bwtween her original position and the

I agree with that principle... but I would also suggest that if you were going to do that after all, make it so not only do you have to use judgement while using the grapple... but make it so some places have to be used via a swinging rope. Make it so some places, there's no area for the hook

unless you have to find the hook first before you can continue. maybe you have to go somwehre else to get it One could maybe invissage a cut-scene at the start of the game where angela is maybe attacked by the wolves and the skelletons? maybe they rob most things off her that she has come

Hi Mike, Have no fear the Linux installation of my games will be as easy as installing them on Windows if not a bit easier. On Ubuntu 8.04 it a typical installation might go like this. 1. Press alt+f1 for the applications menu, arrow to accessories, and press enter on the terminal icon. 2.

Hi Bryan, That does make sense. There are several games that do the same thing where you actually have to swing high enough to clear whatever it is you are trying to swing over. In the Tomb Raider games you have to press a key to get Lara swinging, and she will get faster and faster, and higher

Hi, Well, the current intro scene at the start of the game has her just walking through the jungle, and her opening the temple door. I do admit a combat intro scene does sound a little cooler. However, I don't think they would be able to steel much since she is armed with a Browning 9MM to
