Hey all, I had to go buy a game yesterday to take the edge off all Hollywood bull and loatheable pundits that surrounded this election - I choose TS3 as I loved TS2 and 1.

It's pretty freakin sweet, the most fun I've had in a FPS in ages. The multiplayer modes throw every possibility at you, like the very welcome team-assault mode (just like in UT), the monkey helpers are cool too - what an awesome way to keep younger kids interested in playing with experienced FPS'ers, like the worst player gets a few monkey's to help them!.

I've no idea how to unlock more levels yet - so if anyone knows they should do the honourable thing and tell me, but it comes highly recommended for those that prefer to pee themselves laughing than crap themselves in Doom3. I mean there's a character that is made from a severed hand, with like matches sticking out for arms and legs and a face drawn on the palm - and it's the actual size of an arm as well!.

Either way, your pushing up the time of your monthly wash
iirc you unlock the levels by completeing certain tasks in the levels.. character you just have to beat i think (and jesus is there alot of characters) but the levels you need to complete a given task.

dunno only played it for like half an hour round a workmates house, was thinking of getting it for the cube but is one of those 'can't justify the £40 price tag' yet.

I've got it, very nice, although I liked the randomness of TS2. 3 seems too serious in places (I liked return to planet x )

Time to split!

That game is awesome, a very fun FPS. ( Too short though, I completed the storyline in about 8 hours I think).

Yeah, the TS2 main menu music was awesome. I've got the MP3 (and RTPX, that music was good too).
