yes Pen it was fun, it was good crack and we had a hoot, but I too quickly realised why we stopped playing
there is no depth to the game or finesse, you are kinda limited in your tactics, the tactics and finesse that todays modern shooters give us have spoilt us really
blimey CoD is kinda similar in a lot of ways, with the small maps, and the choke points and the occasional frag fests but with the added bonus that you can hide in dozens of places, and trick and fool your opponents in many many ways with diverse tactics and weapons
all in all a blast from the past, the music, the maps (remember the Hunt, The Bridge) all classic
I am not sure how folks are STILL playing and enjoying this game 7-8 years after its release though as there are tonnes of games out there with more depth
Little Hue had a quick blast for 10 mins or so, and he said he was amazed at how 'easy' the game was to pick up and play
he used to sit on my knee when he was little about 4 or 5 and watch me play this game for hours in the GI Days, so it must have been familier to him even though he had never played it before
I will play again though just for the crack and that misty eyed nostalgia, but I am afraid my gaming tastes are more diverse now, and the gaming flavours we have tasted over the last few years have made Moh seem like dry bread

I think what annoyed me the most is the lack of realistic movement, hang on not sure if that came out right... To be a really good player you had to do things that are almost impossible for a real person to do.
Watching some of the players from spectator it looked like they have st.Vitus dance. Bobbing and weaving, leaning wildly from side to side.
Now all of his is fine if you like that type of thing, I'm not one.

Can I book Wednesday 7th August? (Thursday morning out here and I'm not working that day)
Also do you think Jedi could raise the ping level for that evening so that I can get on.

Preacher, the ping may be a problem. MoH like a lot of older games are more affected by ping. The modern games can handle the 300-400 you get. Not sure if MoH can...
