It was back for playstation 1.  Did anyone else ever play it?  Me and my family loved playing it.  We had huge epic 4 way battles.

Just imagine playing humaniods that are actually pigs with cool accents and wise-@$$ remarks.  You get loads of different weapons and different types of pigs.  It is turn based.  Sounds boring, but its all about the strategy and trying to get the angle and power right on certain weapons like gernades, gernade launchers, bazooka, and the hardest, the mortar.  There are loads and loads of weapons.  The story line campaign is pretty fun too, but its the player vs player is what makes it so fun!!

It just sounds kind of random and like a different version of worms. So I think I would just play worms or tanks instead. Randomness is ok, but when it comes to games I would prefer something a little more serious.

There is little randomness actually.  It takes time to master the skills necessary to throw the gernades or even to use the sniper rifle at extreme ranges for it simulates actual shooting (the wobbliness).  Different maps have different set ups and goals (like extra special weapons, tanks, or even turrets).  Just watch out for the land mines for those suck.

The game is simple to figure out, but tough to master.  It also provides hours upon hours of entertainment.  That is my kind of game of almost any genre.  Like this website, simple to learn, difficult to master.

Lol, i think what makes this website difficult to master is me and Koku! You go to toher forums and you can max out your rank in 300-500 posts, here we are all about reaching 10k, which is kinda ridiculous! However when we have a few 10k members we will be awesome, because then when we look at other forums we can laugh to ourselves and say things like. I only have double the posts of this whole forum!

I'll be laughing  for I will be a few thousand behind the leaders most likely when I hit the 10K mark.  lol.  Right now I just have my eyes on the 1200 mark for the assassin class.  the extra 5% and the priority of 1 will really help for sure.  mostly the speedy priority is what I want.  I expect to hit it by the end of the week though

I think a bit under 100 posts in what.......3 days? thats more than reasonable. If we were a dead forum or slow i would say it probably wont happen, but as we are though our members are....limited.....we get enough activity for you to pull off thirty or 40 posts a day if you are diligent.

I think the 100 posts can be done in two days. As for mastering, I do not think one can ever master LE as new things happen, and only Bill knows what may happen, and even then he barely knows.

I remember in one day I posted 80 posts.  I have an average of 27 posts.  I actually expected to hit 1100 on Monday.  Seeing as there was a lack of activity over the last couple of days, I did not hit that mark.  

anyways, for a while there I was averaging 50 a day unoffically
