did you have an action-replay cart.? the big plastic cheat thing that goes into the side?

i upgraded my 500 to 2meg! an even bigger expansion, and all so i could run an anti-lemmings demo :D

Got my 600 out earlier to see if it still works.....it does, but my swos 97 don't that game was gold!!!

yep that was it jaxx!!!

technology is amazing nowadays!

and yeh monkey island 2 was on loadsa diska, and i only had 2 drives :(

jez_1_2000:

yep the AR cartridge was pretty cool, i rem using it to take screen grabs of stuff then importing it in2 Deluxe Paint for a muck about!, photoshop of the old days that was :)

2MEG! whoa bigshot, no bodylikes a showoff... lol :D

[jez_1_2000]

i Used my AR for a part on monkey island, you had to get a combination for a safe by watching the shop keeper do it and the only way to keep up was to use slow motion :hokus-pokus:

2MEG! whoa bigshot, no bodylikes a showoff... lol

:D

[ZeroBlade]

bah no way that part was easy :)

one of the most annoying ones was prolly where u hadta use the grog(?) to disintegrate the jail cells 2 get ottis out. i h8ted switching glasses all the time!

another annoying thing i remember. u stole the money / cash slip whatever from the old shopkeeper to buy the boat rite. well even if u haggled the ship dealer down u still gave him the whole amount of money and never got the remainder back!!!

u ever play the monkey island on the ps2?

i started that and it was pretty cool, just never got round 2 finishing it...

-Z

[jez_1_2000]

u ever play the monkey island on the ps2?

monkey island 1? on the ps2? nah... i aint got a ps2! just pc, 3 amigas, xbox and a dreamcast.....all collected over time!

i know, show off :P

[jaxx]

not bad going on monkey island -Z

i was stuck for ages when you had to find the small yellow flower that you mixed in with the slab of meat to knock the dogs out!

had to wander around the woods for ages!

and sword fighting training - - - - - THE MACHINE!!! ah ahhhhhhhhhhhh!

:D

quality

i had delux paint too! used to love making crap animations with that!

and what about Road Rash! quality classic! only 5 tracks that you wne ton over and over again, all the did were get to 5 miles and then repeat depending what level you were on!

[ZeroBlade]

ah the good ol' days of gamin.

wish i could remember some of the "sword fighting insults" from monkey island, they were classics!

i can't even rem how i found that flower, but i loved it when u figured stuf like that out, sucha nice warm fuzzy feeling inside, like u've acomplished something major :D

-Z

[jaxx]

- and though! why didnt i look there in the first place.......

hmmmmm sword fight insults, it was harder when you fought the sword master because you had the same insults but she had a different start line and you had to work it out......

lines i can remember

there were the crap ones thatr were a gauranteed loss like, 'i am rubber and you are glue' :D

eeeeerm......

'My dog is more intelligent than you' - 'I bet you taught him everything you know'

'Ive seen better lookin gorillas' - 'Glad you made your family reunion'

thats about it!

[ZeroBlade]

hahah

Insult: You're as repulsive as a monkey in a negligee.

Reply: I look THAT much like your fiancée?

Insult:When your father first saw you, he must have been mortified.

Reply: At least mine can be identified.

Insult: You're the ugliest monster ever created.

Reply:If you don't count all the ones you've dated.

Insult: You have the s*x appeal of a Shar-Pei.

Reply: I look THAT much like your fiancée?

Insult: Never before have I faced someone so sissified.

Reply: Is that your face? I thought it was your backside!
