And it's your connection that's slower than turtle sex.

In........................................................Out .

It scared the crap outta me, what was your first? reaction when and if you played it? Man the end was freaky, i mean, with those four faces screaming at the the spider to "KILL HIM!"

Anyway what was your first reaction?

Many of mine were "HOLY -blam!-!" and "WTF IS THAT?!"

I was like, "Wow this is not real scary, it's cheap scary." After playing F.E.A.R. it was nothing.

Dude, that's like Doom 3 scary. It gets really old and really predictable fast. Sure, it's great the first five minutes, but then the effect wears off. And it becomes boring.

And predictable. In Doom 3, after playing it for a while, you just begin to start throwing grenades at doors as soon as you open them. Open a door and fire a rocket. Lather, rinse, repeat.

But eh, whatever. FEAR and Doom 3 > Halo. :)

Agreed. Halo wasn't meant to be a horror survival shooter anyway. :)

I'd like to try this map out with some other people, however.

I remember once me and 5 other people all got together and tried to get to the end... I can't remember if it was area 54 though. We never quite got there 'cause we ran out of ammo (Stupid spiders wouldn't go down!) and we got to this one room with a bunch of flames everywhere and couldn't figure out how to get out. I remember this one dude had a sword and when he ran out of ammo he just started pwning everything wit dat. But then he gets killed by a bunch of them skeleton dudes with shotguns that ambushed him. We all meeleed through the skelatons and grabbed the sword and sprinted for it, but we got cut down... That was the most skeletons I ever seen in one place... good times!

I played it for the first time, and although it's quite amateurish and unbalanced, it does offer a ton of fun.

Some of it's like really corny though, like the giant heads in the beginning and retarded organic walls that bleed when you shoot them á la Prey.

Wow, i couldn't stay in it for more than a minute before a exception got to me. My video card is a collection of excess crap Nvidia found in the depths of their -blam!-s.

Dude, we're talking about Area 54, first of all, and even then, I'm just stating the similarities.

Area 54 was fun for the first couple of times. Then it just got boring. I always get exceptions when i go through the teleporter to the last room. And well with my crappy computer everything looks crappy and i noticed the orange-red things r just flood with a different color. I dont know wtf the spider things are. I always get killed by something that isnt there. I like area 53 more cause i dont get exceptions at the very end.

What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

Whenever I start playing it, I get exceptions, and I don't know why.
