Well that's sort of what those jaws were in Prince of Persia. They weren't spikes but it was the same thing.They were like these big metal blades that would slam into the floor and slice you in half if you walked under them at the wrong moment. Then the later games also did feature those swinging and spinning blades that wouldn't kill you right away but they did a lot of damage. Time is an illusion, lunchtime doubly so. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yohandy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Sent: Monday, February 11, 2008 6:54 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Montezuma's Return Progress Report.
