For Killing Time - one of the bugs missing is the map bug, where the game will not save your map percentage progress. From what I know, the reissued black disc fixes this problem, as well as the polygon issues. Bug : When playing Killing Time, and entering an area you have already explored, occasion...

I actually enjoy the story. Sure its a bit contrived, but its one of the more original stories I have come across in a game. I think the digital actors they chose for the game really helped the story progress. Alot of FMV bits from the 3DO era really took me out of the games, but in KT it helps suck...

I dont think screening members would be effective at all. I also think that the posting of those emails, as long as NikeX had express permission by the other party, was perfectly fine as well.

Killing Time for PC / MAC - What happened?

Not sure how many people have given Killing Time for PC a shot, but if you have you will come to find out that the game shares absolutely 0% resemblance graphically or design wise with its 3DO lineage, save the character actor videos and soundtrack. My question is...does anyone have any backstory on...

thats a giant cord jungle mess! If my dog got anywhere near that, I think he might accidentally strangle himself.

I will post photos of my setup after easter. My gf is loving enough to let me have 10 consoles hooked up to the television in our living room.

Agree as well. The FZ-1 always felt and looked like a solid, reliable, well designed console. Sitting next to all my other systems, it just looks good.

Although I am a sucker for my Neo Geo AES as well. Always liked the design...pure simplicity

I have no problem w/ dlc (although I dont buy it) but I do have an issue when content on a disc is locked out for me to pay for later.

Feels like Capcom is stealing from me.

my 360 is suprisingly quiet, although it was only manufactured about a year back.

I owned a launch 360 that had RROD , and it was louder than the fan I had running at full blast all through the summer

Still..Microsoft seems to be getting better w/ their hardware

Killing Time - Help me find the yellow key

So its been a few years since I have sat down and played Killing Time front to back , and while my memory of the game is pretty solid, its such a large and spread out game its easy to miss at least one thing.

Also info to note : The game was also released for PC / Mac , and it is an abomination. They scrapped the entire game itself , and created an entirely new game.
