hahaha! people saying how they first played giants. i was 17 when i first played it. 26 now and have fond memories of it.

in response to people saying games are all about graphics these days, well giants had amazing graphics when it first came out so in its day it managed to accomplish good gameplay, great story AND awesome graphics.

why is it so hard to do these days? i think its because the people who make games now do it for the money rather than the love of games (mores the pity)

Purely true. There will never be a game like Giants. The 90's and 2000 games where the best, now how it is actually i'm very dissapointed.

Silence! You know nothing!

When I first started off in Giants back in 2001 I was a massive reaper newb - I hosted TDM games (note lack of 'with full base'), and camped hapless and shopless meccs with my impressive array of homing weapons.

First buddy I made in the game was a bloke named Aflack. We both started playing as meccs around the same time, so we were competively newbish toward each other. Eventually joined a few (mostly crappy) clans together, leading up to our membership in the now hugely and deliciously innactive NEO clan.

As a side note, 1.4 was released on my 15th birthday - not a bad gift, if I don't say so myself.

Ok it’s still playable in 2010 but let’s hope its playable still through 2010-2015 and onwards :) lol. But I hope Giants is never forgotten it’s a classic in my eyes. 8)
But one day I imagine it will be forgotten maybe even almost for good :shock: , the fan base is the only thing that I think is keeping it alive at the moment. :twisted:

10 years

Post by FreakyGhost »

It has been 10 years hasn’t it :shock: . God it’s been long, it seems like yesterday sometimes that I got it. I’ve still got the original box and everything that went with that! Well the box is a bit bashed up and the manual cover doesn’t stay on the manual its self anymore cause I always flicked though it :oops: , the discs… well they have seen better days :lol: however it’s still running but for being something around 10 years old it’s looking good for its age lol I can’t blame it for feeling ruff ha-ha 8) .
