Yeah, I've got a massive hierarchy of dirs on my HDD of official game patches for games on CD/DVD. Kind of surprising Double Agent isn't patched on Steam, but that's Ubisoft for you I guess eh? I own that one on DVD but wasn't able to play it on my slow computer back in the day and I have never tried it out since I built the one I'm using now. I'll need to try it out one of these days as I loved the first 3 Splinter Cell games.

Update: The Original St-
....uh...yeah. That.
It's been added to the li-
Well. Uh. Granted.
Y'all have all the fun without me.

I just finally joined Steam and thought I'd take a look at this giveaway here. Only one title that looks fun to me (no offense intended, I'm just a very picky gamer), so....

I'm requesting Zombie Bowl-O-Rama, if you would be so kind!

I've always liked bowling games (since I suck at the real thing), so this one really appeals to me. :-)

Heh.
Heheheheh.
At last.
AT LAST....YOU ARE MINE....BWAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!

*ahem*

Granted.

Thanks to you for hosting, and thanks to JunglePredator for the donated key!

I'll strive to do my best with the least amount of strife and the most amount of Strife. :)

Thank you JunglePredator for the game! And also thank you to our gilded host for handling the high speed transaction faster than a Goldman Sachs high frequency trading platform computer algorithm! :)

...I can't tell whether that's good or bad.

Just attempted the first level on medium difficulty. Wow, is this game ever different from what I remember. They've made some serious improvements to it since the original. Gone is the old id Software 2.75D ray-casting engine, replaced with OpenGL or D3D with full mouse-look capability which is rather pleasant to say the least. Takes some getting used to the high speed of these older games even when just walking, but I guess that's a sign of the time. :) Got my ass whomped twice which was a bit of a surprise, but then I haven't been playing FPS for a while, especially not old-school 90s FPS.

I found that I have been spoiled by auto-save in modern games also. Die, and you load from your last manual save or start at the beginning again. Gotta remember to save! :)

Nightdive did a pretty decent job on this.

Oh. Cool.

...I still can't tell whether that's good or bad.

LOL, it's good. :) One thing that appears lacking mind you, is high resolution support unless I just didn't figure out how to enable it, but that isn't a big issue at all as it can be made to look 90s authentic via a visual effect option that gives it an analog filter look to smooth off the eye cutting pixel edges. Works quite well. Of course, I always have to try to push all games new or old to 2560x1600 if it is possible. :oP I'm sure there are 500 addons, OSS binaries etc that can be used with it for all kinds of fun stuphs too though. :)

I SURRENDER! TAKE MY CHEEZ-ITS!

Swap 'em for raw carrots and we'll call it a deal! :)

Speaking of which, I still haven't seen a video game where you can use raw carrots as a violent weapon. It's a damn shame, it really is.

Update: Just in case anyone doesn't understand why. This is why:

Oh cool that's totally how I'm going to....

Uhh... I'm not going to finish that.

The taste?

Oh, zeo - have you forgotten to take your pills again? No, you CANNOT take over the world. It is a bad thing and people don't do that. Especially if they want to be counted to the NICE people. So take your pills, get some rest and relax.
