Darn it, if only you'd waited another 18 days and this thread would have been a full year old before you bumped it considerably. Ahh well, we live and learn (and so far we've learnt not to put our faith in gaming companies that lost their edge years...  [Read More]

The Kickstand ain't dead - It's just sleeping. Or rather, lying dormant in protest. I still love the original and will still give fans every scrap of ft2 nostalgia I collected during that sweet, brief time we had until the fine folks who chose to ca...  [Read More]

But what if the cavefish had (in a move similar to Emett's) dumped a load of Twinkees into the ravine? According to the Twinkee Project's Gravitational Response Test ( http://www.twinkiesproject.com/gravitational.html ), Ripburger could have survived...  [Read More]

Let's not forget this little word. Yes, it is found in the Bible, and yes, it is allowed on American television, but it's still profanity and FT is one of the few, if not the only, LEC adventures to use it as an explicitive. I can't recall if its fo...  [Read More]

All of your beloved console games start out life inside a computer, are written in code optimised for the console, and then exported to cds or cartidges and sold to you at prices that usually range higher than the pc version. All so you can sit on a...  [Read More]

jannar85, it is warez. Delete it. If you did not purchase the game from FMTowns, or secondhand on original cd, it is illegal to own. I know it seems cool to hide under the cover of "I own the original Zak, so I can download all the other version...  [Read More]

I know that this might sound blasphemous, but I think - after having taken a LONG time to think about it - that the only 'proper' FT2 would be one set in the same universe, but focused on a different character with Ben and the Polecats perhaps only m...  [Read More]
