The website where BASS is up for download lists two versions, a CD version [60-something MB] or a floppy version [7 MB]. Which should I download? Is the CD version worth the time?
Edit Note: I seem to have discovered a small bug in the smileys. I originally used parentheses rather than brackets for the file size listings which caused them to look like this: (7 M I doubt this usually causes much trouble, but I thought I'd mention it. |

| The CD version has voice acting, which is worth it to me. |

| I spend 2 or 3 more hours dowloading just for voice acting? I think I'm getting the Floppy version... Unless there's anything else. |

Why don't you just leave the computer on overnight?
There's nothing else special though. |

| That's the point. At least I can't wait dozens o' hours before I can install. Better a small zip which has only the game that another that has CD musics and videos too. (Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!) |

Gamehippo gave BASS the red circle of doom (i.e. violent content).
Can anyone tell me exactly what sort of "content" violent or otherwise there is in the game? |
