    That was a lifetime ago!
    At least 20 years in the dim and distant past, when I was a student nurse!

    So are clothes necessary?

    Rumours of a Cho Aniki theme night have been greatly exaggerated!

    Sorry Retr0, don't worry, you'll get a chance to wear your tangerine Mankini sometime I'm sure.... just not at the Beers, the sight of your twiglet tucked into spandex would put me off my nachos!

    I think we can forgo the CDi this time, no?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    But then, it is a horror evening, and what better represents on-screen, mind bending terror than the animated freak show that is CDi Zelda cutscenes!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    I've got a good feeling about completing Burn:Cycle this time around.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    You couldn't possibly expect us to sit through another couple of hours of that abomination, can you?
    That nightclub?
    Did we save the progress into the devices diabolical innards?
    To save time, here's the ending!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn

    I know it's a long shot but if anyone has dragon quest IX and wants to trade maps can they bring it along?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    n'mind that DQ9, don't forget to bring The Ring on DC!
    I'm bringing Knock over the cans tower 3, Haunting Ground, Trapt (it's kinda scary), Forbidden Siren 2 and Kuon


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Kuon is creepy! mmm, not sure if I should play it or see it being played excepting in the bright midday sun, when the "things" can't get to me!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    I can bring Amnesia if anyone has a laptop it can run on... it doesn't like my laptop for some reason.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,886 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer

    Last night, you missed it.

    Thanks for a great night atavan, had a blast, especially winding ciderman up about the Overblood/3DO connection. I realy can't wait for Tokyo Jungle now!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,633 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    No Overblood - 3DO connection?
    You were only joshing?
    And there was I , taking it all so seriously! ;)

    I was way tired last night, made it home in one piece though!

    Thanks for a great night, and for the canine companionship!

    Thanks Sera for Lemmings 2 as well!
