The Battleship,Williams, sentenced to death!

[magnumpi]

Your not wrong, Williams and rain and 13's with crap tyres = quarter throttle pedal as i don't fancy smashing it up just yet, or at all in fact.

Think i will bite the bullet as you say, but my card has already taken a hammering this month with insurance,exhaust,lowering bits,the crap tyres road tax due in a few days etc, the list goes on

[volvosneverdie]

I bottled a valver full stop man. KNOW id put it back wards into something hard and unforgiving, just havnt got the skills.
But tyres are like tattoos man................................................................
ask yourself, is this really the place you want to be cutting corners and saving money?
No.
Get the best you can afford.

Not to say get in hock up to your skidmarks, but do the best you can dude.

Then your battleship might last long enough for me to have a shot in it..........................................
No?

thought not.

[magnumpi]

The tatoo analogy sums it up really

I know what your saying, normaly cash is king for me, but not had much work recently. Just been given a box full of retro consoles though Atari, Nes, Snes and a shed load of games so may be able to claw some back from that like a whole £5 or something!

Any one want some nice Supra Celica alloys lol

Maybe one day you'll get a go

I don't think that semi slicks are much of improvement at wet conditions.

[volvosneverdie]

Dude, if youve got a Mk1 Megadrive (with slider headphone volume control) and Magical Turbo Flying Hat Adventure (tm), im having it.

[magnumpi]

Sadly thats the console i didn't get, but strangely got some games for one in the box, can't remember what of the top of my head but i do remember seeing Road Rash.

Ha ha ha!
I remember Road Rash!
Riding a gay motorbike and hiting people on the head with lengths of pipe.
Sounds like the story of my mams life.

Spose I'd settle for a snes and pilotwings.
now THATS some fine assed retro-gaming cherry pie!

[magnumpi]

Pilot Wing isn't there, but hell yeah what a game! Played some Dessert Strike tonight, fook me if thats not a well hard game and oh how graphics have come along in the last 10-15yrs or so.

I need money, but have a constant desire to hoard stuff, want to at least give the Nes a go before i flog it on and i don't have the arial cable thing . From memory it's got something like 15 games with it, including 3 Zeldas in the gold boxes, good memorys.

Dude I had Pole Position for my Spectrum 48k.
It was frankly, rubish.

[magnumpi]

It came with the Atari i got.

It was, but we did not know any better, Pitstop II was something incredible after that, Test Drive was then with stunning graphics and actual dashboards, all of them look silly now

Latest title that I did enjoy is this:


Landy is very good for rock crawling in there, Humvee is crap as IRL

Just too bad there is not much time to enjoy of that game, too much other things to do nowdays

[volvosneverdie]

I don't think I ever got over the arcade game Hard Drivin.
It was a car simulator, with full clutch and 5 speed box, the visuals were on a 3 screen 'wrap around' view, it was a pound a go, and it ruined my life.

Oh, and you could do stunts.
Awesome.

Was that the one with the cow?

I loved that game, ruined me too!

Can't remember cow in that one, but I believe there was one with one where you drove a cop car and chased bandits, there was only hi and lo gears, great sounds and also a cow if my memory serves me correctly

Stunts (4D sports driving) was Hard Driving rival, they were also available to Amiga and Stunts was also to PC, not sure if Hard Driving was ever made to PC.
Hard Driving was way ahead of Stunts technically, but it never was very popular title.

We should build things like this dude :
