Oh, is it possible to know what software he used to make the game (as in level editor, modelers.)?

Oh, and is it possible to get the games source code in a text file because I downloaded the source from the newsletter but it didn't work.

"He must have been like thirty to make a game like that"

by that logic, the programmers of half life must have been 90 or 100 when they made it.

..

what kind of stupid question is that anyway? "how old was he".. why don't you email and ask if you really want to know?

alright, give him the stick -- DON'T GIVE HIM THE STICK!!

Doesn't matter what kind of software he used really. Although off the top of my head Nuclear Glory collision. (Not sure if he used gile[s] or did the lightmapping manually.)

Halo 2 sucks.. you just wanted to be cool and mention halo 2, when in reality it is a piece of crap game and now you are starting to doubt whether or not those bacon-pimento cheese balls were a good idea.

well it seems that everybody else hates halo2 with a passion so why would i be cool to mention halo2?

it looks to me like you are the one trying to be cool

actually i'm not really that offended by you saying that halo2 "sucks" i don't care if you don't like it...i'll enjoy playing it!

I'm one of the most critical games players around, and I'm choking to play Halo2!.

But I'm choking to play HL2 and Doom3 too - this should be the year of the FPS never mind the monkeys .

Go Magellan! Halo 2 does rock! or... "will" rock. But with my luck its going to be a 2D re-make of space invaders, with spaceships replaced with little alien things...

EDIT: Oops, did I just bring a dead post to life?
EDIT AGAIN: I guess not... Last post was today.
