Shogo

[Dave]

Heh, somehow I transfered Shogo theme song onto my ipod somehow and am listening to it now. I can barely remember playing a few multiplayer matches over the network.

The question remains, who did you side with at the end!?

[Jonathan]

Nobody played Shogo single player. As I recall, my graphics card generated really nice gaps between polys for whatever reason, so that the robots appeared to be bursting with an inner white light.

[Dave]

If I beat the single player, I definately dont remember. But playing 2 sessions of Baldur's Gate over the network was pretty fail too if I remember correctly.

[Alan]

"Stop talking to people!"

I don't get the above reference, but I found the opening!

Not really a reference. Just that whenever anyone talked to an NPC it paused the game and forced everyone to watch the conversation.

I played single player through twice. Once when it first came out and again a few years later. I think I played to both of the endings, though I don't remember either of them.

Multiplayer was dominated by trying to get to the super weapon, "Red Riot" IIRC then trying to find a group of other people close enough together to get multiple kills with the one shot it gave you.

The other thing with Baldur's Gate was that I had a plain fighter that was a level behind everyone else and I couldn't hit anything. You were trying to go do quests and I'd stop halfway across a map and attack squirrels, because I couldn't kill anything else.

IWD was a more memorable multiplayer experience. "Ok, I'll open the door and and fire a spell, then the fighters will pass me, and... wait, where's Dave?" At one point I fired a cone spell as Alan crossed my line of fire and I think I almost single-shot killed him. Ah, and the final boss, who decided to chase me. I just ran in circles around the room while the rest of you dealt with his minions.
