Shadow Warrior: Wanton Destruction

[Totenkopf]

Now this is a real suprising piece of news I got from www.shacknews.com . Apparently the expansion pack for 3D Realms FPS game "Shadow Warrior" (now 8 years old) has been released on the net and available as a free download. You can download the expansion pack from here:

According to 3D Realms' web site, this is bit of history behind the elusive expansion:

 

"Over the years we've been asked several times whatever happened to the Shadow Warrior add-on pack, Wanton Destruction. This add-on was produced by a company called Sunstorm (featuring DNF developer Charlie Wiederhold). The add-on was completed, but then shelved by the distributor. It wasn't our choice, and it wasn't Sunstorm's choice. So the product sat. Eventually Sunstorm went out of business, and the product essentially died. As time went by, we at 3D Realms had thought the product was lost. We never had a copy ourselves of the add-on, and with the company non existent, the chances of releasing it were pretty much zero. We tried to locate it a few times over the years, but pretty much gave up hope, and wrote it off.

 

Fast forward to this Monday, and we get an email from Anthony Campiti, the former President of Sunstorm. Anthony tells us that he discovered a CD called "Add-on Archive 1". Much to his surprise (and ours), this CD contained the completed version of the Wanton Destruction add-on. A few emails were exchanged, and a CD arrived at 3D Realms HQ on Thursday afternoon with the materials!"

dette var uinteressant

[Hr. Jenssen]

WHAT?! Haha, Shadow Warrior er jo knallgammelt! Først NÅ kommer de med en expansion?

 

Jaja, det var vel gjerne 7-8 år for sent for min del. Shadow Warrior var hysterisk morsomt, men jeg tror ikke jeg reinstallerer det nå fordi det har kommet en expansion. Humoren fortsatt er på topp, men grafikken er vel kanskje ikke... ja... ny.

Å dette er virkelig et gromspill. Det er ikke mer enn noen få måneder siden jeg tenkte at jeg måtte spille det igjen. Men jeg ble så skuffet da jeg fant ut at det ikke gikk ann å styre med musa, det hadde jeg helt glemt da det er endel år siden sisst jeg spilte det. Så kontrollen ble rett og slett alt for vanskelig, så jeg ga opp.

[Hr. Jenssen]

Kan det ikke styres med musa? Dette høres da særdeles rart ut. DN3D, som er to år eldre enn Shadow Warrior, har støtte for musbruk.

[SkyMarshall Arts]

Haha såpass? Ja Shadow Warrior var det grommeste det, sammen med Blood og Duke Nukem. Men kan ikke akkurat si jeg kommer til å installere det igjen. 3D Realm burde kanskje få tommelen ut av asle og ferdigstille Duke Nukem Forever istedenfor å pusle med det tullet her.

 

Men litt artig da. Får nesten en nostalgisk tåre i øyekroken her!

 

Do you want to wash Wang or do you want to watch Wang wash Wang?

[Hr. Jenssen]

Ahà! Det var derfor jeg syntes det var noe som "ikke var rett" med et D3D-screenshot i screenshot-tråden. Speilbildet av Duke så så forferdelig tre-dimensjonelt ut!

[Gunfreak]

den er ikke helt ferdig enda, en del av fiendeneer fremdeles sprites
