rocks.

So good, I haven't done any work at all this weekend and need to write about 2000 words before tomorrow

But I did get to the Phenandra Drifts!

Seriously though, I'm only 15% through but so far it's already been well worth the purchase - pretty much every couple of minutes something new crops up to impress.

ooo got my copy today - it's loveley

pity about the odd controls tho - using the C stick to strafe would have been better imo

**toastermagic** · 27th November 2002

Yeah - I must admit, I'm finding the controls a bit fiddly too - lot's of pressing the wrong buttons for stuff.

But maybe I just suck at gaming? 10 hours in now and only 40% complete. And those 10 hours must have taken about 30

**djm2k1** · 27th November 2002

aye that was my initial impression as well as it happens, lots of buttons to memorise

its still gorgeous tho

I'm a bit late getting my copy of this one, but it was well worth the wait.

Got it today, along with a RGB SCART cable for my NTSC box (a must-have for all you NTSC cube owners out there). And the game is just f00kin tremendous. Yeah the controls are a bit shitty, i'm about 4 hours into it and I still find it daft that I cant use the right hand stick to move view around, that is proper daft, esp when you're trying to fire & strafe around enemies at the same time!

But appart from that, it's amazing, not as much FPS as FPAdventure, more exploring than shooting & stuff, but defo one of, if not the best GC game to date.

Get it now
