Great Jan. Loved it. Here's a good 'alt ending' I found.

Make sure you hang on until the end. The comments after are worth it. :wink:

If you know the Fighting Fantasy books, this is funny. Photoshopped new titles onto the covers that more closely match the cover art...

I tried the little game but I can't seem to get anywhere. There are about 3 'exits' that I can't seem to use. I can "ignore", "follow", or "kill", for example, but when I press enter nothing happens. I guess it's just unfinished, eh?

I found that too, TyGuy - tried a few different keys to accept my choice when given such options, but nothing seemed to work...

Well, I think I'd need a Help option for most of these games.

But I have to admit the Sopwith at AngryOctopus IS playable, I enjoyed it a lot, the low passes and risky diving, hahaha... it reminded me my old Atari days...

... and it also reminded me the old good Sopwith Camel...

(I really love this video - I'd like to see this machine with my own eyes)

... and this video reminded me the classical "spitfire low pass" video...

Ipod lookalike

Post by MasterWuuf »

I mentioned buying three Ipod-like MP's off the net earlier.
They were described as MP 3/4/5's. I was concerned, especially since I got them for under $20 each, and out of Hong Kong.

They turned out to be great. I plugged one into my USB port on the computer.

8Gigs of space. Copied stuff onto it fine. The screens are a bit small (1.8").

Any good places to download movies for free? :?:

I'd like to try that function out.

I'm sure many rude names can be listed for naming the potential technology sprouting from this video.. but still, it's interesting.

That's actually pretty cool, they must have spent a lot of time getting their timing so good. I'm impressed!

I'm pretty impressed at that video, Linflas. That looked pretty cool. As Gambit said, it would have taken forever to get the timing right... :lol:

I'm not a militarist, and I'm not quite sure how this is gonna help in Afghanistan and everything, but I think it's really very cool:

I like the foot pedal operating the guns, and I like the blankets on the beds (I mean the coloured ones), and I like the shape and how it looks, and I like all the modern technology! If only it was made for ANYthing else than for war! :(
