Oh well, you can't please everyone all the time. I still think its a cracking game - and I'm enjoying it more than I enjoyed MOH.

I think the graphics are great! You sure you've got everything on max detail ?

For fans of the original Dark Forces games, this is a cracker. Add to that I've just got a great little golf game on my PS2 and there ain't gonna be a lot of work done round my office this week!

Been away at the weekend so I'm lagging behind everyone else - just got past the scout walkers...

Looking forward to this too . . . .

I don't agree, I've enjoyed the game all the way through.... and I have played a few of these babies :) although I do admit that the levels up to getting the Lightsabre were a bit lame.

Just mark my words and look forward to Soldier of Fortune 2!!! Some of the STi clan guys will know what I'm getting at.

And FYI - Lucasarts only licensed the game. Raven made it.

I know there's probably a ton of people with it already, but I'm looking forward to checking this puppy out.

Damn, forgot it was out today. Just been to my local Special Reserve and they are shut cos it's bank holiday [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

Looks like I'm off into town early tomorrow.....

Apparantly Pro Rally 2002 is out for the PS2 as well.....more credit card bills :D

First impressions are VERY good.

-DV

Right, that is bought then tomorrow.

I still rate Dark Forces as a top game ;) even with the blocky graphics :D

Not sure on Pro Rally 2002, sposed to be very arcadey....hmmmm, some playtesting in the shop called for :D

Hanslow, I was a huge fan of the original too - you WON'T be disappointed.

-DV

The more I play it and get into it, the more I'm enjoying this game. I haven't even got any 'force powers' yet!

All the old weapons are back too from Dark Forces II - thermal detonator grenades, pulse rifles, etc... GREAT FUN!

Its not often you can say this, but this is a game you can safely go and shell out £40 for, no problem.

-DV

Daz,

Just picked it up at MVC for 27.99 :D Installing as we speak.....

There goes my bank holiday weekend ;)

I'll asume there'll be a long pause before your next post, but I hope your enjoying it as much as me!

Pause over. Just had initial play...first comment....

Thank god it's not a piece of pi55 :D Fed up of easy games. Ran in aimlessly blasting away....oh look I'm dead. Bit more caution called for then, and some target practice ;)

Sorted out some video card issues that I forgot to do after clean installing my PC, and it's running beautifully now in high detail at 1024x768 :) Will sit down some time this weekend for a proper full on sesh. Well recommended for star wars and FPS fans http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/images/icons/icon14.gif

I'm stuck..... mining facility.....

There's a purple electrified track thingy...... any help?

Burr, that was a pig

Anyone playing the game - don't read on as it'll spoil things for you..

Burr, 2 things to do:
1. Hitch a lift on one of those mining vehicles
2. To achieve 1. you'll need to do something BELOW the room where the mining vehicles come inside the 'building' for the first time.

Some of the puzzles are really good - this game will make you think a bit harder than the others!

-DV

cool....... worked a treat......

damn ION cannons now :(

Oh no...looks I'll also succumb to the powers of the Force ;)
I loved Dark Forces..all those years ago on my DX2 :)

Anyway Steve, this is not the game you are looking for......move along...move along....you have gauges to fit :p

damn, sounds like another game i'm going to have to buy !

i resisted yesterday (£27.99 MVC!! wot an idiot :eek:) cos of playing too much Counter Strike.

but given i currently have an internet connection which is slower than the proverbial snail i should have bought it !!

damn, bet everywhere is shut today :( i know MVC is :(

oh well shopping tomorrow morning i think :D

MVC?

Pete, there is a new force power in the game....Jedi Mind Trick ;)

We've already done all the these are not the droids you are looking for jokes :D

We can even network it up if you are still coming over on the 6th?

MVC is a shop in town ;) It's now a part of streetsonline on the web. They had the game in Game for 34.99 and 200 yards away in Nottingham in MVC, it was 29.99 and 27.99 for members :eek: ....errr...hello, which place would you buy it from ;)

Top quality game so far. Apparantly there are 24 levels and each one is massive :) I'm taking it steady so I get some fun out of it.

Trash.. I'm stuck taking out the trash.....

I'm near the movable rubbish bin.. email me please someone in the know??? ;)

I've got past that bit now, but really am stuck now.

Anyone else cracking on with this, that can maybe help me out?

BuRR, where are you stuck? There is a walkthrough on http://www.gamefaqs.com. I've just about finished the trash level (I'm on my way back to ship with guest).

It's a good game this. Still got some of the infuriating bits from Jedi Knight I, where you have missed one little bit and can run around for hours looking for it....but on the whole, well worth the dosh. Something I can't say about a lot of the drivel that is being produced these days :( But then with a game lasting me on average a week, maybe I ought to look something more constructive to do with my time :D

Just played it :D:D

Superb game :D

Get it now :)

Yep Steve, 6th is still on.
I'll email you sooner about the times...+ or - 1hour of course ;)

Hmmm Jedi mind trick...I wonder if I can use that on Jan Ors :rolleyes:

I'm now on Dasaan's ship..... he's one big bad mutha! I MUST be near the end now!

Just had a go online too now :D :D :D

Great fun. It was a Light Sabers only battle :)

Runs perfectly, even on my rather poor graphics card :)

God this game is absolute rubbish, another game that has been hyped up much like MOH this is a very very disapointing game.

Game play is boring and aiming is really really really bad, the imperial guards are like superman.

Just a fusion of Dark forces and the phantom menance (the latter of which was also terrible)

Save your pennies, this really is cackaroo.

Sad Damaja, sad

Aiming ? Depending on the type of weapon and the location you hit the body. Stormtroopers need a headshot to take them out.

Heh. there's always one! The game will probably go on to sell millions of copies this year and there'll be Damaja hunched over his monitor cursing the aiming system - love it!

Like I said not everyone's cup of tea, just most peoples.

-DV

Sad?

I think it is Sad that games companies can get away with churning out the same old stuff year after year. Die hard gamers will agree that this is complete toss.
