I'm feeling kind for no good reason. Have some Celtic music and dance...

I bought Xenonauts before it was completed and enjoyed it as a little tactical game, but the ending was still bugged at that point so I couldn't finish. The (then) very limited number of combat maps also became dull to play on. The final version has a lot more maps but I still failed to finish...

Well hey! I had no idea RQ and Traveller were still on the go. Good to hear - it must be nearly 20 years since I played any PnP games so apologies for being out of the loop. A friend was playing CoC last year with his gaming gang but I assumed it was from the old rulebooks. His character...

Waaay back in the late 70's/early 80's there were a bunch of RPGs around riding the back of the Great Beast D&D. Don't know if they would interest you Dutch Ghost but here are a few I can remember. (Yes I'm that wrinkly). Tunnels and Trolls was a cheap D&D lite rip off. It lasted a few years...

Hats off to those of you who are actually playtesting this junk. Looks to me like the F35 of the Fallout franchise.

I hope Zak McClendon doesn't get the job he's angling for at Bethesda. That said he would fit right in.

Zaij, you might try Alan Moore's original From Hell - stark b/w art, about as far from manga style as you can get. Marshal Law has capes aplenty but tramples all over the superhero genre.

I'm guessing that samurai armour could even stand up to mutant redneck shotguns. Woo. Too bad I'll never pay to find that out.

Ooo! Low blow. :lol:

Remarkably similar to the plot of Torchwood season 3, Dutch Ghost. But a bit less ghey.

Don't panic, we'll soon have artificial brains to do the worrying about mad science: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/8164060.stm If it doesn't think about sex they'll have built it wrong.

This'll help you cringe in pain Edmond, but hopefully in a good way. Classic French film noir from 1960, though hardly in the same class as the Third Man.

Man Bites Dog (C'est arrivé près de chez vous), from 1992. I finally saw this a few months back - probably the most disturbing French movie I've seen.

Just been reading the new(ish) League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Another good 'un from Moore & O'Niell:

Yeah [REC] was great. Colin is supposed to be from the zombie's perspective, which might be interesting. Also it was made on the cheap, and I always like to see what people manage on small budgets. (The American Astronaut, anyone?)
