The truth about Fog:
Fog, is a cloud of condensed water vapor in the form of water droplets. In our case this is a cloud of condensed posters in the form of Foggers. We all come together here on these forums, in a special kind of condensation. In extreme cases, this fog can be comprised of condensed ice crystals. This tends to be caused by cooler conditions, for example, when there are no elections taking place, or no extra competitions running. The lower density of the ice crystals can also be caused by exam pressure, often forcing many individual elements to disappear from time to time.
Usually, fog is suspended in the atmosphere, just above the surface of the earth. We live in an alternate version of this, which is in fact the selection of special reserve discussion boards. These are located just a few links away from the ukgames home page. These internet pages are capable of sustaining a large amount of Foggers.
In cities and industrial areas, fog often combines with smoke to produce a mixture called smog. This is a problem that has gripped our Fog by the throat. Where there are supporters of different consoles, for example: Sony fans and Nintendo fans in the same place, smoke is a product that always seems to form. Console wars erupt, producing this smoke, which all leads to smog forming. However, it has to be said that our Fog wouldn’t be the same without it.
Fog can be classified into four general types, each varying due to its method of formation. The four possible processes that lead to a foggy product are advection, radiation, upslope, and precipitation.
Advection fog is formed by currents of warmer, moist air passing over a colder area of land or water. Fog of this type is frequent in the winter when snow is on the ground. To the average Fogger, this takes place when a new “revolutionary” game for their console is about to be released. This new game will bring a wave of warm emotion into the now colder atmosphere of the older games. The advances in technology overlap with older versions causing this fog to be produced.
Radiation fog is formed only over land, and is caused by the cooling of the earth by radiation. For our Fog, this means that only the fog chat forum is involved. The radiation is in fact a series of messages sent out in the form of extra competitions, which excites the build up of more fog. At night, radiation lowers water temperature comparatively slowly, but land cools rapidly, becoming cooler than the air above it; consequently a fog is formed. This means that whilst you may expect the Fog to become quiet over night, it does in fact stay as busy as ever, as people work hard for new ideas to place in the latest competition. Such fog is seldom thick and usually burns off in the morning. Basically, the interest is short term, meaning that many competitions have taken place, but each one is forgotten as soon as the next one appears.
Upslope fog is formed when air is evenly cooled by its rising and expanding, for example, when a wind flows up a mountain slope. In our Fog, this is caused by hype. As a new console approaches, the excitement builds. More and more people talk about it, and the hype expands. It goes higher and higher, building ever larger, forming upslope fog.
Precipitation fog may form during a snowstorm or rainstorm, if the snow or rain passes through a layer of air that is cooler than the precipitation. This tends to occur with our Foggers when groups of newbies, full of excitement at the prospect of being part of the Fog experience, collide with regular or notable posters. They are forced to conform to the ways of their fellow posters, and precipitation fog is formed. Fog of this kind frequently occurs during the passage of warm fronts and cold fronts, when the surface air is markedly different in temperature from the upper air. Put into our terms, this means that when new adverts are distributed around the web, or in magazines, more waves of newbies approach, causing yet more fog.
Fog and mist, like clouds, can form only in the presence of dust particles. In other words, without the Foggers, and the Fog staff, we would not be a part of such a special place. Our Fog is always expanding, and it’s great to be here.

I liked it oh yes i love Deathmatches but it is PD me and my friends returned to for 4 player manic against 8 Dark sims. I love PD go on you and a useless mate against a Dark sim with any weapons but must use Slayer rockets on Temple trust me it is the scariest panicky and insane fun ever!
Oh adn try hiding in the little den where the body armour used to be in Goldeneye!

It is fefinitly manic. It's so fast you can actually dodge bullets! It's great when you make your own arenas and blatently rig them to your advantage!
Its true. Even Nintendo fans have to admit it at some point. I was with a group of friends, who were Nintendo owners, and we were playing TS on PS2 for a few hours. We then switched to PD to find it was almost unplayable. It was so slow, dull and boring that it was painful.
I admit the one player game is excellent, and the multiplayer isn`t bad, but its multiplayer is not as much fun as TimeSplitters.

TS multiplayer is fantastic.
What i was trying to say was SSX pro implying the multiplayer in PD isn't as good as that in timesplitters oh i collapsed!
(right now where's my gin)
(right now where's my gin)
Did he just.... did he just say.... did he just say PD not have as good multiplayer as erm Perfect Dark, uhhhhhhh
Dringo collapses!
Dringo collapses!
I actually got so far in Crazy Taxi on a run that I got bored, owww, that games music is by far the most suited music for the game, 'Shelley fifteen is pregnant, just like her mum when she had her, and Kelly's never going to have a dad.....'
yeah yeah yeah yeah...
yeah yeah yeah yeah...
My first testing game was TimeSplitters, everyday I played it till death, I got so sick of it that I can no longer make a comment on the game without getting a migrane, everyday I used to test that game and then come home and enjoy playing Perfect Dark, so obviously my vote would be with Perfect Dark, and therefore I cannot make a fair judgement on which is the better overall game.
**cough** Perfect Dark **cough**

Good plan. It certainly is a revolutionary step forward in FPSs. If they could combine it with TimeSplitters, then they`d have the ultimate FPS.
Above $5000 you get S liscense, above

I think I`ve only made about 6K tops. Bit of practice needed!

If I weren`t so tired, I would :-)
However it must be said that they have their own strong points. TS - Multiplayer addictive fun. PD - the rest.
