Well, now Turner has the damn game too so I guess I'm the only one left.

Does someone smell funny?

Hey I'm working on it

[popstandards]

Stinky bastard.

ahem... yeah, so anyway...

I think I've just about decided NOT to buy this game after all. I really miss playing with everyone online, but my God, RB 6 is the absolute LAST thing I have any desire to play much less drop $40 on. I don't know if I got too burnt out on the other one or what. I know the thought of dealing with those bulky controls again makes me want to puke. I tried to rent it last night, but they didn't have it. So instead Muves and I got Worms 3D.

Hmm, I don't know... I just looked through the Sunday ads and Target is selling Black Arrow for $26. So either that's a hell of a deal or this game is really bad. Either way, it's tempting.

My final thoughts of Black Arrow are that it's single player is crap,the two new multiplayer modes can be good if people play them right (people will sit in the other teams spawn and kill them before they can even move, and some people run a death match on there which ruins the point and takes out the fun I like in it.) They fixeds the gliches from the last one so it takes extreme skill to survive (you will die fast). Of course theres new gliches in the maps player will exploite to win. A new damage system has been introduced which many people may not have noticed. The farther from your target the less damage you do unless its a shot to the head. Ex. The Dragnov7.26mm(like 50cal)does 1 shot kills at up to 10meter away farther than that the player can take 2 shots. The M60 can do a 1 shot kill to the chest up to 3 meter away.This forces a player to use accracy more than firepower to go for the head(most unskilled player still aim for the chest).So0me of the maps are good bu then theres a couple BAD ones. Hotle gives red team 2 exits and green 3 green has direct access to the lobby all green has to do is camp the lobby and red can't leave(i've done it myslef with a team of 5 only one guy went around getting the satalites).Final Thoughts The game is walmost worth $30 if played correctly and with people you like and don't buy it for the single player.
