MechCommander , complete in box, but only because I need the manual. Skipped the game the first time it came around, and when I bought the Gold version, it only came with the expansion pack's manual. Plan to scan it for replacementdocs , though. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y71/kreshna_iceheart...

1. Chopper Command Ahh.... I still remember the game. Probably the coolest Atari game I've ever play, simply for the theme. The following are my suggested list, by the way: Bank Heist . The game is Pacman -alike, but I find it more addicting than Pacman . Pitfall and Adventure , but it's probably j...

That's the one I blame for bringing down the others. http://www.dosgames.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10550 Man, that was (and still is) a good game. Definitely. Too bad it is not 'multi-layered' like 1942: Pacific Air War is, but still a very excellent sim nonetheless. A Metal of Honor for a secret m...

:( Not as good as I expected. Lemme' guess: not very realistic? Ahwell, also bought Jane's WWII Fighters from the same guy that sold USAF to my kids, he was so friendly to send it to me. I think it's gonna be better then Jane's USAF, or at least I do hope so. Don't mean to disappoint you but I thin...

What you think Kan? Move or not? I let you decide. Actually, it is not intended as review. It is more like SimHQ's After-Action Report, which allow game players to swap their 'war stories' with each other. However, unlike SimHQ, I don't think we need a single thread for each gaming instance. Also, ...

After Action Report/Tavern Tale thread.

The purpose of this thread is for gaming after-action report like that of SimHQ. However, I think we don't need a separate AAR thread for each gaming instance. Also, unlike SimHQ, I think we don't have to limit AAR to flightsim, so if you want to post AAR for, let say, Leisure Suit Larry , then by a...

Controlling browser's print options with JavaScript?

Although each browser's print options is different (for example, "Print Options" in Opera, and "Page Setup" in Internet Explorer), it seems they handle similar set of parameters, like: - header and footer - print margins - paper size and orientation Could I control those browser'...

TFH? Whats that? I think he meant TFX http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/tfx/screenshots Only when TFX stands for Their Finest Xhour . :laugh: BTW, graphically dated but still good is: 1942: The Pacific air war. http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/1942-the-pacific-air-war Certainly if you want also a ...

Nope I'm Irish and Scottish Canadian. But I have a German soul. I believe in good electronic music, and rough sex. :) Ah, same here. Electronica rocks! Ever heard of Faithless?

Nope, Wing Commander 1/2/3 beats both of them. Nope, the Terran Confederation is nowhere as cool as this . B) Use that as insurance in case you get the urge to use. Just think of what it does to your bank account, your house, your family, your self-esteem, your heart, your soul, your everything! We...

I'm still getting nightmares though. I heard that drug addiction is quite traumatic indeed, but I hope you'll get over it. (by the way, it's quite ironic that it was *I* who went to drug counselors and learned few things about addiction while she didn't do shit to put herself together) I used to ma...

4. Length Not too long. Time to clear a level not more than 20 min if possible. If thou can't save, the game shouldn't take more than 1½ h. Agree. Grand Theft Auto is a really excellent game, but it takes about two hours to get to the next "save point". Now, if only there's mod that allow...

Pardon the thread hijack, but how did you stop? My ex-girlfriend is (still) and addict. She has been on rehab back and forth; doesn't make her stop at all. It's all right..look, she won't stop until something really bad happens to her that makes her want to stop. Hence the term "hitting bottom...
