Space Hulk

Thats sounds like a cool idea...multi-player.
Have you tried the co-op mode yet, is it any good? Let me get a bit more practice in then I'll give you a game and i'll see if i can't dig up another few players to make up the numbers.

[SisterHelios]

Well you only have room for 3 players since the forth spot needs to be saved for the computer play whos the warp spawns,but I have,me and a friend stayed up till like 500AM Eastern playing on the Mod,He simply loved the mod so much,i thi nk I got him hooked lol

Who needs sleep when theres Genestealers to kill.

[IBBoard]

although strangely enough, I'm guessing Space Marines wouldn't sleep much either

[SisterHelios]

Lol they don't according to the Old Codex,they need maybe only like 4 hours of sleep,and the longest recored group of Marines gong without sleep was said to be....145 days during a huge campain of some sort,I think they were crimson fists.

[IBBoard]

That'd make some people's day with University - "oh no, I've got a huge essay due in tomorrow! Oh well, never mind, at least I don't need sleep so I can stay up all night and work on it without a problem"

Although I'm sure they'd still go at least a little crazy after 145 days, unless they didn't count that half-brain sleep they do as sleeping.

[SisterHelios]

That was a possible side effect of a Marine going without sleep for so long.

[MadMaffMan]

Your thinking of the Catalepsean node, a brain implant that if the marine is deprived of normal sleep 'cuts in' and allows the brain to sleep and remain awake by switching off areas of the brain sequentially.
The opposite of that is the Sus-an Membrane which allows a marine to enter a state of suspended animation. The longest recorded case is brother Silas Err of the Dark Angels at 567years.

[IBBoard]

And not even a single grey hair after that I do remember a story where someone ended up going into sus-an, possibly the Eye of Terror novel.

But anyway, we're heading off topic here

Waaagh!

I just got my Orky hands on a copy of Space Hulk for the PS2 for just £4.

Waaagh! Die Genestealer scum.

[IBBoard]

Cool Didn't realise they'd released a version of it late enough to be on the PS2!

I picked up Fire Warrior in Sheffield for 99p, still on the shelf as a normal game, not even second hand or anything! Not actually played more than the tutorial though I end up getting distracted by skinning/minor modding/programming/real life too much!

Anyway, is it like the original Space Hulk computer game? cos that would really under-use the PS2 power

[MadMaffMan]

I'll let you know when i get my hands on it.
Fire Warrior is ok but you haven't missed out on much by not playing it. Carry on skinning is my Orky advice.
