Ah, Nostalgia …
Those who have known me for a while know that I used to be big into First Person Shooters (FPS). It started out with Quake, then Quake 2, then Half-Life. One day Mr. Jones, one of the co-owners of M.A.G.I.C. at the time and friend introduced me to Tribes. At first I thought it was retarded and hard. As I got to play’n it grew on me, a lot! Eventually I was playing it all the time. Then I heard Tribes 2 was coming out. When 2 came out I played that damn game non-stop for years and was very good at what I did. Eventually I faded outta the game and didn’t play so much. After getting new hardware I had troubles getting it to install correctly. A sad day indeed. When Tribes: Vengance came out, I about bought a plane ticket to where ever the game studio was who put it out to go beat everyone of them senseless. It was the worst piece of shit I have ever played. It just didn’t have the feel of Tribes and more of UT +Z (+z would be vertical axis, aka jet pack). They wanted it to be easier for the losers who couldn’t get the original down. Grrr.
I can just smell the nostalgia in the air… Or did someone fart? LOL

Nostalgia? Man I’ve never stopped playing my fav game. Starcrat! 9 years and counting. Crazy thing is, even blizzard(game maker) is STILL making updates for it after all these years.
Still hoping SC 2 will eventually be made.
