Yep. Isn't technology and the long process of preparing for marketing GRAND?

They'll port, but they'll wait 6 months or so, and I canne wait that long.

Fable took about a year to be released on PC, and they're adding a TON of new content. I have no qualms about waiting...

Yeah, it is. Mostly why if i saved up enough for my home computer, i won't buy anything until the next big processor is released, that way, i can avoid having to replace componets for atleast 2 years.

MGS:BBE

SNAKE finds corridor with DEAD BODIES.

SNAKE: Huh. Gee, must have been an accident, or something.

It's SOMETHING.

SNAKE finds the NINJA towering over HAL. HAL has pissed his pants.

SNAKE: Hey, you're that ninja.

They FIGHT, hand to hand. SNAKE beats the stronger and faster NINJA, who promptly vanishes.

SNAKE: You! Where is Rex and how do I destroy it?

HAL: Hi! I made Rex! And I love anime, and I wanna codename, like... like... ooh! Otacon! Doesn't that sound cool? I wanna help!

SNAKE: I asked you how to find your greatest creation and destroy it. I don't want your life story.

OTACON: Oh. Rex is in the underground maintenance base.

SNAKE: The underground maintenance base?

OTACON: Meryl knows where it is.

SNAKE: Meryl?

OTACON: You know, hot chick?

SNAKE: Chick?

OTACON: You're just doing this to annoy me. She's pretending to be a guard. Meet her somewhere only ladies can go.

SNAKE: Well, if only ladies can go there, how can I, a man, meet her there?

OTACON: The girls' bathroom, Snake!

SNAKE: The bathroom?

OTACON: Forget it!

Int. Girls' Restroom.

MERYL: Boo!

SNAKE surprisingly does not load his clip into her.

MERYL: Let's go, shall we?

SNAKE: We?

MERYL: The question thing's getting a little old. So's sneaking around in my guard uniform and not getting caught. I'm coming with you!

SNAKE: ... Joy.

Int. Commander's Room.

MANTIS: That's it, Meryl... Kill him...

SNAKE owns MERYL before she shoots him.

MANTIS: Yes... Impressive, Snake... but you can't catch what you can't see!

SNAKE punches MANTIS, breaking his invisibility, and defeats him.

MANTIS: Noooooooooo!

SNAKE: Controller port 2, bitch.

MANTIS does not die until he gives SNAKE his entire life story.

MANTIS: Oh, and Meryl has a crush on you.

SNAKE: I don't know what you mean.

MERYL: Do not! Creep...

MANTIS: Do too. I'm psychic, remember?

MANTIS dies.

It appears Fileplanets come up trumps again, as much as I hate the place. They're offering the original Ground Control for free download. Which is nice.

It should be on the frontpage, but I'll link it if anyones lazy enough.

Yeah, but pure RTS. No base building, etc.

Edit: Its more of a Tactical RTS than anything....

Ground Control was okay, but meh. Even for free, it wasn't that fun a game. I prefer RTS where I actually control the resources and can make more troops and such (Like X-Com. That was one of the greatest games ever, especially the sequal "X-Com: Apocalypse" Too bad I can't get it running on any of my computers anymore... *Tear*), instead of tactical ones where losing even one troop is painful.

The Starship Troopers game was an exception. Because eventually you got badass exo-skeletons your troops could equip.

Sometime next month, or so my preorder tells me.

Ha ha, you're so funny, I almost forgot to set your shoes on fire.

Almost.

Bah, damn Tyranid bugs... Personally I'm hoping one day for official expansions eventually adding in all the major races. Imagine an 8 way free for all, with ever race being different. Mmm, much goodness...

EDIT: I'm editing this to say... Damn your edits!
