And the FoG was empty...

I dunno, first day back at work after being off ill... no work to do... and no discussion to pass the day.

Maybe it's me... being a Wookiee must scare people off.

Or maybe I need to change my deodourant...

I'm saying nowt
*s*

But the patch will fix this issue.
Man,I sound like Mr Black and White now don't I?

I wonder if I can get a slice of their profits for blabbing on about this game?...Oi Molyneux, send me some free money for talking your game up.

*fingers crossed*

Mine hasn't crashed once.
The Banshee card is incompatible, read the ReadMe.txt file in the directory.

Lionhead are coming out with a patch in a week or so that will remedy this.

I'm here, but im off again in a minute.

My B&W crahsed for the first time last night. My monkey was tied to the village store, i was hoping he would learn how to help the villagers, andhe just froze. The rest of the game still works, but i cant do anything concerned with him.

Bizzarre!

I have the latest drivers available for my graphics card (Creative Voodoo Banshee); no new ones have been released for a while now. I had a similar problem with Project IGI.

I'm not going to pay out £200+ for a new graphics card for one or two games though.

Just one of the reasons that I prefer consoles to PC's as far as games are concerned, but I won't go there again!

I'll just wait for the PS2 version.

I've read about some problems with this game, but not me.
No sir, not a one.

It's nice to have one that works after my PS2 dying scenario. And,considering the number of copies sold, there are bound to be some unstable machines/versions out there.
Shame really, as it really is one of the most incredible things I've played.

Check back at lunchtime for "The lifestory of Bobo The Chimp", complete with stories.
You can upload your creauture details to the website and it creates a webpage writting by your creature complete with photos and what he thinks.

And the weather system programme,log on and set your preferences, then each time you log on it monitors the weather in your area and transports that info into the game.
Hence, last night it started to rain in multiplayer, then stopped and got dark.

Incredible stuff.

B&W doesn't run properly on my machine - every time I go into the temple and go into one of the rooms, it crashes. :-(

Ah, my monkey Bobo.

He eats and immediately poops in miracle dispensers and village huts.
I've tried to teach him to throw it in the sea, but he gets angry and plays cowball whenever I hand him poo.
Fair enough.

He's a fat little fella, and took him online last night to meet other animals.
And what happens?

He meets a sheep and a cow, waves at them and proceeds to spend the next 5 minutes breakdancing to impress them.
He thinks he's in Footloose or something.

All he does is eat, poop and get angry.
I'm going to rename him Chris Moyles.

You know it makes sense.

Yes, you are granted 2 weeks leave. During this time you must play Black and White, stopping only to report to me the exact quantities of faeces that your monkey has throw at the innocent people.
