Remember, if it's OLD, it's not obscene anymore.

He broke the rules a lot. I don't think we will really miss him anyway.

I've always liked Marathon for everything on a map actually being there, always. Nothing is more annoying in a game then running into an object only to notice it is being rendered to late.. Overall I'm surprised how well AO handles 3d though. Yeah, I remember early polygon-era racing games. They so...

I see... Since when has A1 been capable of 3D models? I might be entirely out of the loop here.

I never noticed, but it seems weird that you can't use the staff in M2 but the marine is always holding one in the chapter screens. Maybe they intended to have staffs as a usable weapon.

How did you get the slanted roofs?

.sit and .hqx can be opened by any windows user who knows how to type "www.google.com" Are YOU a windows user who knows how to type "www.google.com"??? ... I've barely worked on Marathon "Undecided Name" recently. 60 hours of study a week kinda sucks up all my free time...

Sean Connery should play Tycho.

Oh, and I HATE that flowery jjaro crap-speak. Can you release a "Normal English" version? Dumbest thing about Infinity was that a really damn smart AI couldn't form coherent sentences. The Jjaro could speak normally to Hitler, why not to the marine 800 years later.

Who cares if Mac doesn't get shit games like Master of Orion 3 and the 8th expansion pack to Civilization 3. Mac gets Starcraft 2 and it gets it at the same time as PC.

Loops don't sound really that fun. If it was branches it would be more interesting. I'd probably be kind of angry if I wasted 30-40 minutes playing 3 levels just to be sent back to the first one. Why not send them back to the first map, but have that map with the "wrong" exit terminal disa...

So its like an intermediary between wolf3 and doom3?

Wolf3 = kill nazis

Doom3 = kill aliens on phobos.

Since its in the middle, it's story must be 3 words long, since wolf has 2 and doom had 4.

Thus - Kill Lotsa Stuff.

AmIrite?

Don't you know that when two men have anal sex, one of them impregnates the other in their rectum, leading to so-called "rectum babies" 9 months later? Don't you know why some people always have bad breath?

So I used gameranger for a while when it was new, wasn't fantastic but Mac didn't have much for gaming support. Looks now it's a "pay" service now, and one of my friends said that there is usually 2 or 3 people playing at one time. I recall the owner had the qualities of a "flaming ja...

RAM is all the same now, pretty much, so you could just stick a ram stick into your mother board and then take it out when you get a new computer and stick it into that one.

Nag - That is how it was done in the original game

JC - Stop being so damn stupid. The game even TELLS you what is wrong.

Any chance for PID multiplayer? Ha Aha Aha

For the secret areas, try making them "Secret" Doors or something so that they dont show up on the overhead map (or disable the map). Better that a player has to -try- to find them.

Does OSX 10.5 do windows better? I thought that was one of their promises.

This is nice, I was planning on just having a switchwall that a player could rocket to "destroy".

So like the second map I made sucked, but the first one was good. Why was it not included?

if you are OSX I can set you up with a complete install.

I have seen the 360m2 on a friends xbox. better netcode is nice, but marathon was alwasy better for single player anyway (all of its weapons are for killing pfhor, not players, really). 4 player split means i need to buy a bigger TV and split screen multiplayer sucks anyway, no more sniping/sneaking...

Just to nitpick, but I certainly wont consider getting a 360 for the 'updated' marathon 2. A1M2 is almost exaclty the same, without the ugly hires and much better netmaps.

Oh I see. It opened as a gibberish text file when I opened it on the university computers.
Looks okay. I prefer the original A1 icon.

What is an .ico?
