ahhh. Crash is one of those games that has some really weird hardware-specific programming. there was a blog somewhere with the original programmers talking about the insane bugs they got while making it, it's interesting as hell.

that being said i was never into crash though. early playstation for me was all about bushido blade and jet moto

I read through that recently and they basically used nothing sony provided just coding on the bare metal for the most part. Then they went and invented their own language for the sole purpose of programming Crash which they ended up using until very recently. Actually interesting stuff.

The funniest bit was when they unveiled it at E3 no one believed them that it was all real time gameplay. Crash and Mario 64 hold very special places in my autism laden heart.

Jihadi John is nowhere near as charismatic as Kane though. Kane loving rules.
I remember reading a while back Joe Kucan was in talks to do a few movies simply because the fans loved him so much, but that may have been bullshit.


Also TA still one of the best strats of all time.

I bought the commander pack off GOG a while ago. Is it worth trying out setting up a multiplayer game? I'd be down as all hell.

Any game where you can get a mobile version of the biggest laser defence tower there is is ok in my books.

Download this poo poo point it at your directory and download everything. There's a ton of really loving good mods of FS2, such as the fan port of FS1 and a fan remake of its expansion pack which is far better than the original. Also the media_vp's make the game stand up pretty well after all this time

Some of the mods look pretty impressive for being built on the bones of an engine from 1997

Can't find the cinematic that goes along with this theme, though. It's basically your boat getting blown the gently caress up, the ship's captain sobbing then blowing his brains out, dead bodies floating in the water, then a city getting nuked. Pretty hosed up when you're 12 years old. I could never get past the first mission.

I installed it all and had a crack at FS2, really enjoying it so far, but I don't see where the FS1 missions have installed to? Am I just missing something?

Make sure you're launching FS2 via the launcher.exe

Point it at the FSOpen executable fs2_open_3_7_2_RC3_SSE.exe

Goto the mod tab and select fsport-mediavps, this is in your Freespace 2 directory

Launch the game and you should be able to select the Freespace 1 and Silent Threat Reborn campaigns from the campaign room.


There's also some graphical stuff you can turn on in the features tab like 3d shockwaves, post processing and fxaa. I'd also disable the motion debris since it looks lovely and low res these days.
