I have come up with a new idea for a game. As new games are often kind of strange, especially Nintendo who invariably invent games with weird animal cross breeds that must collect coins, or land on thingís heads in order to kill them, I have decided that a bizarre cross breed of the odd and normal could be quite interesting !
Your hero is a police officer who is made of cheese. He must stop a rogue herd of cattle who are intent on liberating all cows from their restrictive residence in fields. Cattle are forced to either join the group or be infect with Foot and Mouth or BSE. Now, they are on their way to taking control of government. Being made of cheese, our hero is able to melt himself and pose as various dairy products, hiding in farms in order to meet memebers of this rogue herd. Once he reveals himself he has just a few minutes to complete the level by either lulling the cows to sleep through a series of Val Doonican records or rosting them alive with a grapple-barbecue weapon. Creating burgers keeps the general public happy but keeping the cows alive allows the economy to prosper. A difficult balance. Using a type of 3D platform operation, our hero must obtain the necessary items to continue his progress. With little help from his fellow officers, he has to break into stores to steal Discmans and Val Donnican CDs himself. He would have to have some form of time limit over large mapped areas. These cattle are moving quickly in high speed cars and will be needed to be tracked down. Perhaps they could be seen in towns, trying on clothes in shopping centres for example.
Suggested levels :
High Street Shopping area
Farmyard
Barns
Country lane high speed chases
Houses of Parliament
Items to collect :
Extra fat cheese for energy
CDs / Discmans
Wrappers for disguises as dairy products
Barbecue Kitchen utensils
Actions :
Jump
Shoot
Fit headphones
Melt
OK, so it is not all there just yet but donít worry. I would like to start the official SR FOG chat game. Anyone can add and embelish the idea and then we can search hard for a brainy programmer at SR to make it into an exclusive game for US. Thoughts, ideas ?

Er-no, there is no one here who doesn't want you to come back. You're one of the reasons why it is the place it is today, along with Sniper (Whereever he has gone) and many others. But just like from the last upwire e-mail, it seems the notables have had enough now and no longer come here.
'Back with er-no'

Oh, I thought it was something to do with your bowler hat making you look like Mr. Benn and then someone at a posh gala assuming that the Mr. Benn on the guest list would be Tony Benn, but it was actually your mate Steve being a "funny guy", then Tony just kind of sticking.

Yes - you got it. I had no choice in the matter.
