The Freedom Force demo is out. Now we can all pretend to be superheroes and not get stared at!
Get it from www.fileplanet.com. Usually, I'm not a big fan of online RPG's, but this could be cool.
And unfortunatly, it isn't worth it. The descriptions put a smile on your
> face, as does the voice acting, but it's a pretty boring game.
I didnt think it was that bad...
I reckon their sense of humor missed themark a little (American?)...
And the control system was terrible...
but otherwise, it was quite entertaining?
Qui:"Obi-Wan, this child is troubled. He's clearly the One who will bring balance to the Force."
Obi-Wan:"Master, we found that guy last time. He's right there, oogling Nat Portman even though there's a massive age gap."
Qui:"I'm bored with Anakin now. Chuck him out."
Obi:"But Master..."
Qui:"Shut up, Obi-Wan. You were in Moulin Rouge. Do you not realise Kidman is past it? Why do you think Shortman Cruise traded her in for a younger model?"
Obi:"I see Master. You are wise and saved many Jews."
What a quality script. I rule.

Apart from Qui-Gon, who nobody really cared about anyway.

Glad he died. Who knows what he would have found in
> Episode 2.
Bahh, the ignorance. The ignorance!!
Anyway, it was Jar-Jar who was the star of Episode 1, and he survived!! :D
I downloaded the big version, AND Direct X 8.1

And that's what they call the 'small' version, apparently. Think I'll have to be missing this one out, whilst I've still only got modem access here...
Impressions will be up much later, I've got to download Direct X 8.1 as well, now.
If the world is a joke, it's not very funny.
Not the water, the fact that if you turn it around... I'm sure the whole world is just one big joke.
I've finished downloading the demo. I'll stick my impressions up later.
Does anyone know what Evian is backwards?
