1. Get Tron 2.0 while you are waiting |
|
I can't vouch for much about it now, as I'm early in the game, but it is a pretty game for a high-end machine.

and you can play the lightcycles on their own without playing the rest of the game.
I have to admit that's the real reason I can't tell you much about the game--I've been enjoying the nostalgia of playing the cycles.

It's a lot of fun. And hey, the graphics are better than the movie! And the lightcycles are frigging hard!

6. Tron 2.0 ran on my old P3 800 mhz... |
|
With a GeForce 2 and 384 MB of Ram. You just couldn't have the cool "computer glow" running. Now that I upgraded, though... :evilgrin: And for all you people waiting for Half-Life 2: take heart. Valve has confirmed that the GAME IS DONE, they're now just tweaking it and translating it into twelve languages. Valve is eyeing a worldwide simultaneous release for this game.
And...(there's more!)...They've already got an expansion in the works, due in 2004.

that's what i upgraded to.. although i got an xp 2200
i'd been running a radeon 8500 and duron 1200 w/ 384 ram
i'm usually about 6 months or so behind the "latest" because it's much cheaper and i never really notice much of a difference.
half life 2 just looked too good to skimp on the hardware.
i've been playing the doom3 leak and it's friggin unbelieveable.. can't wait for that one either..

I seemed to have a lot more fun with the first game than any other in ages.

was kind of a one trick pony to me.. once the bullet time thing wore off, i kind of lost interest.
best game i've played recently would be wizardry 8.. but that's a fantasy deal.. best fantasy game i've ever played though, by far.

11. Did you ever try the Kung Fu Mod? |
|
It's really, really cool. Kinda what Enter the Matrix should have been.
