Hi, What programming language are you doing it in; I was just wondering. thanks -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2006 12:15 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] USA Games News.
Hi Jack, There were quite a few Star Wars games I played before I lost my site totally. In the old days there were the Atari games, and then when I was losing it I played Dark Forces, Tie Fighter, and a few others before I totally lost my vision. So in part the new game has some roots in those games, but in other ways it is completely new and unique. jack scrimshaw wrote: > Hello there those updates were trimendous.
