Just be sure that it has no name. It'll feel good to get out of the rain. In the desert, you can't remember your name, for there ain't no one for to give you no name, na-na na na-na-na-na-na...

OK, I'll stop.

Yes, but...

"People are strange, when you're a stranger
Faces look ugly when you're alone
Women seem wicked, when you're unwanted
Streets are uneven, when you're down

When you're strange- faces come out of the rain
When you're strange- no one remembers your name
When you're strange, when you're strange, when you're str-ange "

Sigh, the good Atari name has been passed around like a porn mag in a prison. Until someone who cares about the name gets it instead of some corporate monster grabbing it to turn it out for tricks, it will never gain its former glory.

About real-time combat, noone remembers the "true real time" timescale of Sid Meier's Antietam! (it was written with the "!")?
By the way, it was only published by Sid Meier (i.e., Firaxis) - the developer was Breakaway Games, and the latest game of that series is now published by Shrapnel Games.

Basically, it was really "true real time": a minute of game time was equal to a minute of real time. The whole battle Lasted about 12 hours, IIRC...
Unfortunately, the game had a few bugs, or at least my PC ran out of memory... Anyway, you get the point: Dune II & co. should be called "frenzied-time" rather than real-time

PS: wow, this is my 100th post! (in about 2 1/2 years...)
PPS: about Infogrames... well, I like their stuff since North & South (hey, that was real-frenzied-time, too!), I won't change my opinion just for MoO3.

Pfft... call me a kiddie who doesn't know the glory of the TRUE old-school (before Nintendo) but the only thing "Atari" says to me is "outdated games with crappy graphics"... say, that sounds kinda familiar

I need water!!!
I'm still drunk from Last nite's party. Wow, Lost Paradise rocks, or is it Paradise lost? Those Brits are always playing with words.
The new Marilyn Manson's album rocks, and I thought that guy's 15 minutes were over.....
They also played Behemoth, Grave, BoySetsFire, Paparoach, Iced Earth, Overkill, Grunstruck, Rammestein, Sea of Green, Slipknot, Testament, Slayer, and a zillion bands I don't know .
I need water!!!
