so taw, do you think it´s just some kind of noble dream? it´s not a bad or unethical decision to want to advance? actually, i´m going to stop there, before i become a modernist and start spouting how humans are advancing towards perfection, like in "Brave New World", which isn´t really perfection

It´s a helluva pity, because ION Storm wacked out some fantastic games. The original Deus Ex - it´s unsurpassable. Action, story and reality. It´s totally immersive. I´m considerably saddened. What´s the story with Invisible War? Was it really that bad? My comp can´t handle it, so I have to wait till I upgrade to play it.

i´m really impressed with your thoroughness though Chips, I have to say that. <b>16 </b> betas before release! most mods would just release patches to cover their problems. now, i have to control myself for <i>another </i> week! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <b>i stole the cookie </b>

Happy Birthday! Did you get a car to go with your driving license? That´s what really got me down when I got mine at the age of 17. I didn´t have a car, and no longer did i &quot;sponge lifts&quot;, i had to sponge the car - clean it and borrow it <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

oh hahahhaha i´ve just gone and embarassed myself again <img src=smilies/icon_smile_blush.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ..... LOL <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> ho hum. i don´t know how that happened. i´ve got the forums set to last 1 days...... so meh whatever. neway how close are we chips?

flash games - especially &quot;defend the castle&quot;, which you can play at http://www.arcadetown.com - it´s bad, but incredibly satisfying to see little stick people fly through the air! <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

i read in the thread &quot;Hey CHIPS&quot; the following, which i quote : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <i>Chips Admiral (Moderator) posted 5/5/2004 09:20 PST -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hello there Sub, thanks . Good to see you popping back in, stick around - some large mods are due out soonish </i> are we getting even closer? *rubs hands with glee* <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

lol.... yeah, and their software is so cheap <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> &quot;<i>They are just making the world a better place; one PC at a time! </i>&quot; by selling XP for around 400 aussie bucks <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> however, i´m prepared to forgive them <img src=smilies/icon_smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> - they gave me my two of my top 3 games - Age of Empires 2 and Freelancer

why is microsoft doing this? they wouldn´t do it if they couldn´t make money out of it..... or maybe they are just doing a bit of PR

i play it about 1 or 2 times a month. i´m just waiting to play chips´ evolution 1.28 mod, which is set to be mind-<i>blowing </i> don´t miss it peeps.

hey sycho, if you go to http://www.hovercarracer.com you can download matthew reilly´s free release book - a book called, unusually, &quot;Hover Car Racer&quot; <img src=smilies/icon_smile_wink.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> it´s free for download.

looking forward to the mod - constantly clicking refresh at TLR home <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> gr8 work guys!

ahhh, beeyahhdaful. it hums like a bird and it´s black - it´s my new dvd burner, just finishing the ROTK, which by the way, is a <i>fantastic </i> movie if you are one of the very few unenlightened people who hasn´t seen the light or the movie <img src=smilies/icon_smile_tongue.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>

oh i´m probably going to use the cable/dsl connection for computer customization - i´m into icon creation and visual styles for windows. so quite a bit of uploading and downloading of 8-20 meg files really. i´ve just had enough of this cruddy modem which dies every 2nd week. and when i do get a decent connection, i´m going to start playing MP Freelancer as well. taw seems to be the go-to man here when it comes to technology and computers <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> okay, so it seems cable is the way to go. that way, i´ll get them to put in cable tv at the same time - goodbye free to air tv!

okay lol i´m a nong <img src=smilies/icon_smile_blush.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> <b>i stole the cookie </b>

it´s the same plan - downloads up to 500MB. same cost. only difference is cable or DSL. 40 bucks a month, 15 cents per meg after limit

definitely history - every tuesday and friday is CAKE-DAY (somebody brings in a cake for the class... last friday was cake-day-ultima SIX CAKES <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle>) um what is the second amendment meezookeewee? <b>i stole the cookie </b>

SW, you´ve got taste. Matthew Reilly is most certainly a very talented author - however, I feel that <b>Ice Station </b> was so good that he can´t top it. I enjoy all his other books, but Ice Station is just so kickass. I also read historical books - I´m a big fan of 20th century history. I know a bit about quite a bit, I hope <img src=smilies/icon_smile_big.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> I can´t believe that nobody has listed J.K. Rowling. Hasn´t anybody read Harry Potter? <b>i stole the cookie </b>

thanks stinger

okay - i didn´t mean to be disparaging to any of the mods <img src=smilies/icon_smile_blush.gif width=15 height=15 border=0 align=middle> it <i>just </i> a suggestion
