Hey, know what? Soldat.

Yeah, I'm gonna talk about it here too. I've recently rediscovered the game after a while. I'm about obsessed all over again.

Ignore what the main page says. It has about no similarities to Worms.

It's really fun on its own, free (although bonus features are unlocked if a $9 registration is paid), and has a great community -- there are TONS of mods for it and such-like.

Speaking of mods, I spent a lot of effort on this one: http://www.turrino.com/soldat/MegaManMod20.zip

Yeah, ok, sales pitch over. Well, not sales, really.

I have it, of course, but haven't played it for ages. MSN me sometime if you're in the mood for a game, otherwise I can't be bothered.

It does have its fair share of bugs and problems, but most of them are minor and/or easily fixed. It's only one guy making the whole game, after all.

Wow, Soldat. I havn't played that in years. I'd play it but, y'know. At the moment I'm not gaming, too busy with exams (apart from the odd game of the BF2 demo). And then from the day of my last exam on, I'll be WoWing again.

Oh, except a few of the current included maps are fan-made, but most of them are his too, if I'm not mistaken.

Im a fan of Soldat. I used to play it quite a bit so I might get back into soon.

I wouldnt mind trying to create a "Golden Gun" as In Goldeneye. One shot kill Magnum or something.

Mmm. Magnum.

A few people have complained that the Golden Gun isn't in my NEW GOLDENEYE MOD THAT I MADE. The only good spots for it would be the Rambo Bow and maybe the Sniper Rifle.
