Unfortunately for many sci-fi movies nowadays, there's no science in it ...

There's a nasty rumour going around that Soylant Green is people.

Yes, but WHICH people?

Tastes like chicken....

"Tastes Like Chicken" was one of the levels in the original Marathon game by Bungie.

Blast from the past! I had that on my circa-1995 Mac, having dropped Doom like a hot potato the month before. That was long before Aleph One and the Big Sellout to Micro$oft!

I hear the Open Source project from the old source code is still around...

Thanks for reminding me of that, Gary, it must be ten years since my Mac achieved rampancy and I last played Marathon

Congrats (a little late) on your posts, Johnny B!

My "geek alert" just went off.

Didn't one forumite's wife call us all Rickengeeks or something like that!!

At think that was my wife, who by the way, now owns a 620 MID.

Aww, flattery will get her nowhere. What a nice compliment, though, "Rickengeek"

Elys, I loved all three Marathon games, too, and they were so much better than Doom back then. Did you know that Halo has a Marathon connection?
