Heh I actually chuckled at this one. Populous was (and still is) a really neat series.

And I couldn't care less.
No. If I'm interested in a game and think that others might be too, I create a thread if I like. Deal with it.phaps but it does make it somewhat strange that you started the thread in the first place - and others like the deus-ex one too come to think of it.
i mean, there's no rules as to who is worthy to start a game thread but it does sound weird when someone kicks off with 'i have no connection with this game series whatsoever but.....'
To me it seems right that the thread stater should at least be a fan of the series or have some connection - in other words 'could care less'
I still like the look of it, although
air vent rant
as soon as he starts crawling through the air vent my heart sank. I wish people would stop using air vents in games. It's about as lazy as a warehouse full of boxes or sewer tunnels. Air ducts are tiny, not large enough for an adult male to crouch through let alone crawl. Even if you do find a large enough vent to squeeze through there will be some sort of internal obstacles like bracing or blowers or even god forbid a fan set at the junctions. So you've managed to find an air vent that is large enough to fit through and has no internal obstacles, well the chances are it's not designed to support the weight of an adult male loaded with heavy equipment. It's probably designed to support the weight of air and would collapse beneath you. So let's say you find this magical vent that's large enough, has no internal obstacles and can support your weight the chances are there would be razor sharp edges inside that would cut you to ribbons because it's sheet metal with sharp edges everywhere. Not to mention the sheer amount of noise you would make clambering through one or getting lost in a labyrinth of tunnels rather than arriving at just the right room and the less said about the lack of any ventilation in these air vents the better.
