Why doesn't someone make a FPS based on the SNES version of Shadowrun? That game kicked ass, except the part where you spent 3 weeks earning up points to get out of the junk yard.

make a graphics engine that will take advantage of our voodoo5,6 geforce2 whatever when they come out..push our hardware to their limits..and i swear to god if i see another quake2 game after SOF and TF2 its getting ridiculous man

Hey, completely OT here, but a while back a game review (or link to one) was posted here on the shack for a game where the designers had decided to go with a very interesting HUD.

NOTHING, basically, you want to know what weapon you're holding, look down at your hand, you want to know if you're injured, look at your body. etc. etc. etc. All of this so that the game is completely immersive.

What game was that? Anyone?

I dunno steve, these aren't *that* nifty or cool looking. It's just the unreal engine. I dunno - anyone else disenchanted with 3d graphics? I thought we were moving at just as fast of a pace as before (as in Voodoo days)(got that?) But it doesn't seem like it. I thought T&L would continue to drive the vid card boom, but it seems things have leveled off for now. Old engine + new hud and graphics + "new" storyline and ruleset = New hot game of the eon. When the next wolf3d (in terms of technology not the damn sequel)

Stiki, it depends on what you would use the other two buttons for. Personally, I don't use them at all. Currently I have them set to minimize and hide web pages (useful for porn viewing eh? nah actually I just didn't think of anything else). The buttons aren't exactly right by the thumb, you have to reach for them. They are also kinda weird in Q3, you have to program them to a key instead of an action. Like (button name-I forget) bind to F3 or something. Anyway, lotsa hassle for something that isn't that big of a help. But, if you demand a lot of stuff from your mice, then this might be for you. But I doubt it.

A little bit of advice from Tom Green:

Remember to check your testicles! Young men -- go to the bathroom and feel your testicles. Every day when you wake up in the morning in the shower, feel your testicles. What you want to feel for is an enlarged testicle. You can't feel them for too long. You never know when the cancer testicle is going to show up. Feel your testicles as much as you possibly can, if you're not already. I was, so I luckily caught it early because I tend to touch my testicles a lot. But if you're the type of person that isn't like that, you may want to start now just to be safe.

Has anyone tried the intellimouse optical its like the intellimouse explorer (ie 5 buttons) but its symmetrical.

Im trying to decide between getting that for $60cdn or the regular intellimouse (3 buttons) for $30cdn. The intellimouse explorer is too rich for my blood.

This game is an rpg-ish fps like System Shock, it's not UT with new levels and a new storyline, morons. This game is about *gameplay*, not technology. Think Thief and SS2, mix in some conspiracy theories and nanotechnology, and you are beginning to get a handle on Deus Ex.

I agree. Everyone takes the old engines, makes new levels, and new skins, and throws some funky plot twist in it, and says it's an all new game. The first screen shot looks totally stupid. The last two are alright; I don't find much interest in seeing a guy just standing there (if he were ducking around a corner, or peering around of corner, or jumping and shooting, or crouching or something. That's what I loved about the Rogue Spear screen shots; it showed what can be done in the game, not just the pretty graphics.
