I hate EA even more now for taking on RE into their wing. They might actually be somehow forgiven by the blind masses for their mauling of Battlefield and Dungeon Keeper.. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxfkduWsfUY

Of all the people they added into a game with superfast hedgehogs, vikings, monkeys, vandals and space things... they added communism. I'm totally okay with this. (Also second race was thingworthy enough to warrant inclusion). ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rurNBGo6hEQ

In today's random episode of me rediscovering things that I loved way, way back in the day, we have a small series of episodes of something that sadly was never seen to its logical conclusion. I had known that the website had become defunct for an especially long time, but I had not realised that, by some miracle, the Wayback Machine had saved almost everything from that site all the way back in 2004. Yes, the series is legitimately older than most of YT's userbase, how about that. However, the software used to put these webisodes together is from an altogether different era of the Internet: Macromedia Shockwave. Not even Flash. As a result, I was terrified that it might not be possible to rewatch these with modern computers and their massively overcomplicated systems compared to the sub-Gigahertz processors and 20GB hard drives that were what I had to play around with on the first computer I ever personally owned. And that speaks nothing of the computers that the parents had even earlier than that: things that ran Windows 3.1 and even just DOS, and a BBC Micro even further back than that. Miraculously, I did find the means to play the files on Windows 10 and, thus, I've uploaded the results so that they may be presented for posterity's sake. Unfortunately though, Episode 4 doesn't play through all the way, which I'm assuming is down to how the episode is unusually displayed in a 400x300 resolution at the start, compared to the 640x480 and 800x600 of everything else. My best guess is that it changes up resolution upon reaching the next scene, and unfortunately the player I have crashes upon reaches that part. If anyone else out there wants the files for the episodes in their Shockwave format, I'll provide a link here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zjlum5qfas88eta/wormwars.rar?dl=0 00:00 Episode One - The Little Sheep That Couldn't 05:46 Episode Two - Let's Hope You Can Swim 10:29 Episode Three - Top Gun 15:21 Episode Four - Murderer (Incomplete) 20:11 Theater - The Three Little Worms 23:54 Theater - The Interview ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g98JTbwMOrU

I barely have enough space in my room in order to be able to make this playable, but bloody hell am I happy that it is. While I show off a mode certain to make your arms ache like hell after running it a couple of times, the whole menu thing is the ace in the hole. It's like Meccano but with RIS rails. As for the GunNasium, I don't think the level geometry was in agreement with the stock on the Artillery Luger. Even so, sniping with those irons was a thing. I just wish that the recording actually showed more of what I was seeing than it did, especially those early ceiling shots. Good lord. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBraCgSEMDw
