This months Meg hosts battle between Slaine and Elfric as drawn by Dave Pugh..

However there was a complete full colour Belardinelli version of events in the (I think) 1985 2000ad annual- a formidable body of work.

Does anyone know the whereabouts of these pages?

Glad to hear it but did you get what you went for?- the comics I mean

Sounds cryptic- why not meet him in the comfort of your own home?

Re: Golden Eye

Likewise if you're playing against some one who's just a bit too good make 'em play as Jaws- bigger target to hit and stands out like a sore thumb in that white shirt.

I dug out my old N64 and played a few rounds of Golden Eye this weekend- if you squint at the screen long enough those Russkies pass as Volgs for sure.

Sorry that's meant to be the badge raffle.

I've spent a couple of evenings getting to grips with a demo version of Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast which I got with a Mac trade publication this week. Can't wait to get the full version.
 My only criticism of Jedi is the number of keys and key combinations needed to really take full advantage of the force powers (they?re all there from mind trick to Vader?s force grip and the Emperor?s lightening) and to perform some of the more complex acrobatics needed during a light sabre battle. But I?m sure that can be remedied with a USB game pad.

I think that where all the PC first person shooters that have been recommended in this thread truly come into their own is when they?re played online. There?s something special about teaming up with or going against other online players rather than the programs AI characters. I hope that the Dredd Vs. Death game has some sort of facility like this- imagine dealing out justice with other online judges on online perps..

One other thing my Spanish is a little rusty but you sign your messages-

La Placa Rifa or the raffle badge

I?m aware that it is from an AD cover illustration but what is its significance?

Thanks for the info Mk13 and Jim.

I confess it's not want I really wanted to hear-
but I still hope (and I may not be alone in thinking this) that the developers will get round to putting out a Mac version after the anticipated sucess of the game on other formats..

Meanwhile I'll have to be content with (er-hum) feeling the force on Outcast.

Had a few jars last night before coming back onto the board- just re read my last line- bit vague.. what I meant to say was

 ..meaning  there are fundimental software/hardware differences involved?

I've got an old arcade emulator that I play roms from the eighties on now and again

is there such a thing for the Mac that could emulate the microsoft operating system there for allowing the Dredd game to run or is it more complicated than that, meaning there are hardware differences involved?

Mk13 thanks for the prompt reply,

one more thing I forgot to mention will there be a Apple mac version?

I'm in the dark as to the stage in development of Dredd Vs. Death,
and I've already mentioned this in Logan's 'PC game' thread..
but does anyone know if the game will have an online facility to take to the streets of MC1 and either (a) team up with other online judges delivering justice or (b) comiting crime with other online perps?
I'm thinking along the lines of Counter Strike and the console based Grand Theft Auto series.

I stand corrected Titgibbon

just goes to show I can't take everything as gosple truth down the local when the lager starts flowing..

The animated version of Lord of the Rings was made by none other than Ralph Bakshi (forgive the spelling- I don't have the disc jacket to hand) of Ren and Stimpy fame.

I was told none completion of the animated LotR was due to a lack of funds.. damn shame.

Another shorter animated fantasy he made, I believe before LotR is Fire and Ice. Both are worth checking.

Try a Borders bookshop if there's one near or online- a mate of mine got a cheap copy from HMV Australia last year.

Alexandro Jodorowsky,
worked with Moebius and writer of The Incal, Metabarons and director of The Holy Mountain

and Enki Bilal, a supremo artist

I'd like to see them work together on- not necessarily Dredd it self- but something related to Dredd's universe.
