[caLLous]

whats wrong with the computer?

 

[caLLous]

the thing is i'm in the uk and i have a friend in canada, and we just really wanted to play a game of pong so i'm looking for a two player game...

i admit, the computer is excellent, especially in this version

You know, I hear there's a couple of more advanced online games knockng about these days.

But pong is... pong!
And, bytheway, I can beat that 3dpong game pretty much every time now. Last game I played I won 420ish points to the computer's 290ish. Weehee. Addictive stuff.

 

[Summo]

Shit! How d'yer keep up with it?

Last time the game stopped, screen went blue and a message came up saying "Wouldn't you like a nice game of thermonuclear war."

Ended up having to play Tic-Tac-Toe with the megalomaniacal bastid.





Is 'megalomaniacal' a word?

 

[Summo]

Yes. It is.

yus

a 2 player 3d pong would rock my world

much like the 2 player minigolf flash/shockwave games do.

if that version of pong that i posted was, err, 2-playerised... man, i would be happy

that is without out doubt the best recent stab at pong... what annoys me lots is ppl trying to add stuff to a formula that works perfectly... for example i loved (and still do love) the original dos dopewars... it's beauty lay mainly in it's simplicity... you have 31 days, 6 places to visit and the occasional threats of being shot: get on with it... then they went and made the windows version, which just overcomplexified the idea that made the orignal so great. i don't know if i'm alone in this thought, but it makes me mad.

SomeGuy, i know there are "there's a couple of more advanced online games knockng about these days" but... PONG!!!

 

[caLLous]

Louster. bastard. i can only get 375 points

and it pisses me off the way the computer gets 40 points for every win, whereas we get 20... it *sob* gets me down *sob* sometimes... :'(

 

[caLLous]

nooooooooooooooooooooooo...

pls don't let my thread slip of the front page... if it slides onto page 2 (or worse, page... 3) it'll never get answered

i so want to find this game... pls pls pls pls pls pls help me
