Yes, but crappy graphics means "Will run on my computer". The new super photorealistic 3D graphics sure looks nice, but doesn't necessarily add anything to the game beyond inflated development budgets, and inflated system requirements.

What *IS* Saber Cherry's game? I'm not sure what it even is, aside from a guy who is, apparently, firing some sort of shotgun off at what doesn't appear to be anything in particular in a worldspace populated by what appears to be either giant bugs, or miniature people with miniature shotguns. What does this game involve? How do you play it? And what is that THING? Is it shiny?

I think the odds of getting an answer to those questions are pretty bad after this bizarre thread.

This is all purely a fabrication of my own overly creative imagination..
But it looks like it could be called "Nannite Warriors:the future of pest control"

Hmmm if thats NOT the concept then it certainly could be. I can see where it would allow for using all the standard "I want to be able to use this" stuff in the game, still be unique, but not so unique that the player has trouble grasping it.

I like the idea. HEY SHRAPNEL! LOOKY LOOKY!

Now I'm *sure* that Demosthenes was correct in thinking that you're insane. Only certifiable nut-cases, or spec-ops guys (not that there's a difference), eat bugs. Ick. Yuck. Bleh.

Hey, don't knock it till you've tried it. And remember: It's not a bug, it's a feature! Where've you been, anyway? What happened to your AAR?

No, the usual cause of sudden dissappearance from an internet based forum is either a loss of the person's internet connection, or the choice of the person in question to no longer post to a particular place.
