Yeah, i'm def. getting this. Dunno whether to get PC (Much worse performance, able to get mods and shizzle) Or Xbox 360 (Fine performance, no mods). I may just get 360 so I can play with good performance ASAP, then when my PC is upgraded in the future I can get some mods.

Less of a decision for me. Probably wont be getting a 360 any time soon, so I may as well stick with the PC version. By the time i can afford a 360 I will have upgraded my PC a lot.

uh hum, aparantly all the consoles are going to have downloadable things for games, like levels, so its likely mods might be made, but i aint spending loads of money for a 360 when i can just get the games on the pc, might get a 360 when the price drops

bad news, it is delayed

Post by **Joose** » November 1st, 2005, 16:00

Oh noes!

At this rate theres not going to be a great deal of big name launch titles for the 360, is there?

In the screenshots linked from that delayed page, there appears to be a minotaur, sans labyrinth. I'm not quite sure why it was supposed to be scary - while it was allegedly a flesh-eater, it's unclear whether it was ever offered an alternate form of sustenance, and even more unclear how it was able to eat flesh with man's hands and cow's teeth.

Should I have ever met it, I'm sure I would have been paralysed, not so much with fear, but with mirth. Pointing and laughing over the unusually comic set of circumstances which led to its existence.

a good point well made, but I think he's about to punch you in the mouth for making it

I shall have to grow a beard in preparation. I rather enjoyed Morrowind.

I dont think whether something has an easy time eating my flesh or not would make me more or less scared of it. He would still be eating me. So I would still be scared.

Of course, as with a fair bit of greek legend it is probably bullshit legend with a teeny core of historical truth. So its quite possible that the guy the legend is based around was actually some psycho who liked wearing a bulls head as a hat while he ate people.

And lets not forget that we are talking about a bulls head here. Bulls being the things with fecking huge horns, capable of disemboweling you to aid its feasting on your tasty warm soft bits.

Yeah, but his mum still fucked a cow.

Bull, technically.

Heh, yup. Whilst hiding inside an attractive cow shaped wooden box.

Wierd buggers, the ancient greeks.

Apparently there's to be a movie, "Minotaur". Hopefully not a Troy-like affair with computer generated Minotaurs as far as the eye can see.

Plot synopsis: Man with ball of string wanders down dark corridor. Kills severe special needs case. Goes home.

Well, im sold!

IIRC, there is a lady, who will undoubtedly be played by Jessica Alba, an emporers daughter or something?

Post by **Joose** » November 3rd, 2005, 22:12

thats the bint who gave him the string. I think she was King Minos' daughter, or some such.

EDIT:Makes you wonder what the guys reaction was.

bint: I heard you were going down into the deadly labyrinth, home of the huge maneating minotaur, the deadly beast who has killed all before him. So here's some string. Tata!

bloke:er...thanks....

She gave him a sword too, which was more than anyone else going in there had previously had. With it he made short work of the cow-faced mong.

Post by **Joose** » November 4th, 2005, 11:47

ah yes, forgot about the sword.
