Yes Ryaca
You would be a ball in the dark world.

[Ryaca]

Ah yes i really like that guy

[MadMikael]

Yeah well, he was better than his "friend", that's for sure

There ya go talking in code again ...

The many faces of Ryaca

But I only really work LK with any sense of accomplishment. Max will move up the chain but slowly, had him a long time.

And yea, sketch artists working with seven different people would come up with seven "very" different faces.

ALL swearing "That's him, that's him!"

Go get the emulator and play the game, if you want to understand

The game is very good, was revolutionary for its time, and has touched the hearts of many.
The story is decent too.
It's no surprise that many of the sequels were mostly "remakes".
The next generation incarnation is probably even more popular - but it hits the 3D market, and the controls are kinda clunky, so I don't recommend it for you personally. Not unless you get some 3D gaming under your belt maybe, as it's kinda tough to learn at first. Newer games do it much better.
