Urp..my mum's got home, she's heard from her cousin who's up at the hospital with my grandmother, taking her things in etc. Sounds like it's congestive heart failure, doesn't look good TBH. There's no point in mum and I going up there tonight as she's in ICU and there's not much we can really do up there, so we'll just have to wait and see what happens.
I was having a good day today. I feel really sick now.
Descent is all kinds of awesome!!!
Fuck yeah! I just wish I could install Descent 1 and 2 on the mac os X laptop I have. Unfortunately I need to install a classic OS from a disk to get it to work. I have the disks, but the CD-rom drive is gonzo on the laptop.
As we speak I am sitting in the middle of a party, or what is left of the party anyway, pleasantly drunk having wrestled, groped and had my hands down multiple women's shirts. Once again, a very good night.
Pics or it didn't happen dawg.
Homemade chocolate cake. omNOMomNOMomNOM
Lies!
This is Freespace, not really related to Descent, but still awesome, if not more so. Think Wing Commander meets X-Wing with modern graphics, and even more modern if you get the fan-made upgrades at http://hard-light.net/ . They've re-engined, reskinned, and re-modeled just about every vehicle in the game over there, and added fancy new effects made possible by modern hardware.
Dude I can't believe you recognized the game from the minimum requirements! But sweeet @ new upgrades. I shall check em out. I wanted to get the game working with my logitech USB gamepad. Do you know of any way to work that out?
actually when Freespace was released over here in the UK. it was released without the Descent tag. think it was called Conflict: Freespace. but it was a great game and i enjoyed the wing commander aspect of the game. can't remember the name of the ship (Galatea i think it was) but i held it in the same regard as the Tiger's Claw.
It is indeed the Galatea. GTC Galatea.
My dog Weezy outta jail. Time for the Carter IV.
Unfortunately I know exactly what you mean. This guy right?
