This'll do.

Been looking for this for absolutely ages. Before I even came to SR. Couldn't buy it anywhere, and still can't.

So, as you can't buy it in the shops, I'd have a good guess that you won't mind you giving you a link for the game?

Excellent.

Anyway. It's called Albion, and it's an RPG. I played the demo of it years ago, and it lasted me AGES. Loads of stuff to do, cool little developing plot line, just good fun if you like this sort of thing, game to come back to inbetween revision sort of thing. Or even if you're new to RPG's, and you're interested in what they could be like. This was the first I played, and I loved it. Cool arcady graphics too.

Excellent. Hope it's as good as I remembered.

Skies is definitely coming out on Gamecube, and Venom, if you can't get back out carrying the gun, how about hiding it somewhere where you can get it again after?

I've never even seen what Skies of Arcadia looks like!!
But i've heard it's brilliant.

I really hope it DOES come out on the GameCube from what i've heard.

And what about the 2 Evolution games on the Dreamcast - are they any good??

Ah, there's a gun. Damn. It's so hard to tell what's what with those dodgy 2D sprites. I don't play enough RPG's, you see. I had enough trouble finding the stimpacks in the cabinet :)

Still, at least it meant the guards didn't find anything on me when I came out.

Ah well. All the way back through again for me, I guess...

lol, don't worry. :0) It's like giving you a video when you've never seen a video player in your life before.

And Venom, you probably missed the gun. Idiot. :0)

[And yes, the number thing is awful. :0D]

Muchos grassyarse Senor Grix. I'll give it a go. no doubt my innate numptyness will prevent me doing it, but your instructions seem pretty idiot-proof, and believe me, that's a good thing.

I've been playing it a bit today. I got into the COM room... a bit of a let down, unless I missed something? (probably)

The first person mode is cool, but the number entering scheme for the numberpads is possibly the worst I've ever seen :)

Seems pretty decent so far, anyway. Might load it up again later.
