FEAR gave me the creeps although in FEAR2 since Alma was no mystry anymore it wasn't so scary.

Yeah I played it aaages ago. Was a fan of the books :)

Thought I'd post even if I wasn't right, I know all to well the pain of trying to find lost DOS games. I spent years trying to find a copy of "Keeping Up With the Joneses", which I played when I was like 9 yrs old... only to find that not too long after my family bought the game Sierra was forced to change the title to "Jones in the Fast Lane" due to some copyright violation or something. Sadly when I finally found the game it wasn't as awesome as I remembered it, though the late 80s/early 90s fashion was still worth a laff :)

I have two favourite DOS games, which to date still manage to amuse me:
- Sam N Max: Hit the Road
- Freddy Farkus: Frontier Pharmacist

Maxis did actually plan to release a Sims 3 game for the 360, but for whatever reason the project was discontinued.

The year was 1995, the Senate had just expressed their support for the Dalai Llama, Windows 95 had been available for purchase for about 2mths, and games ran on DOS. A company named "Legend Entertainment" had been given a contract to develop a series of Terry Brooks' books into a game, and the game of which I think you speak had been born. Behold! Your game is "Shannara".

As it is now 14yrs on - and some 5 years since the company closed down - it's no surprise that the game is now available for free download. You can find it on most of those websites that archive old DOS games.

If "Shannara" is not the game of which you speak, then frankly I have no idea.

DDO is free now? Hmm. Haven't played that in a while, I've been so busy playing Runescape... it's so awesome!

I'm pretty sure those glowing white/blue 'scars' are actually the physical effect of using magic, therefore it may not be possible to remove them.

Ohhhhhhh, makes sense. Yup. I guess that's okay then. Kinda weird, but it definitely fits.

To tell the truth, I guess in a way I don't mind that my hero looks freakishly hideous. Sure I would change it if I could, but it definitely adds to the entertainment value in-game.

Really can't wait to see what Fable 3 ends up being like.

I wish I knew how to take a screenshot from my xbox, but perhaps it's best I don't... y'know... to save you all from having nightmares. I play a chick in Fable 2, and my she-warrior is one awesome hero. Everyone loves her and her attractiveness rating is like way up there. But to look upon my character is.... otherworldly... she is frighteningly hideous.

I tried make-up but it didn't work. Then I tried a face tattoo... which only served to make things worse. Then there was this point in the game where I ran out of potions and I wasn't about to die... so for a period of time she hung out with her dog in a cave, just eating pies and killing stuff. This made her fat, and of course once she started to gain weight I didn't wanna stop until she scored the Salad Dodger title. I swear she ran slower but she still managed to complete The Crucible perfectly on the first go. And there's now a statue of her enormity in Oakfield, where she botched a Whistle expression, while wearing hot pants and a powdered wig. It's pretty awesome.

I've had my character on a celery diet for a while now, and her weight is ever so slowly going back down. But the scarring won't go away. I read somewhere that the scarring is caused by the number of times the character dies, but my character had only died once before I noticed the scarring; and I didn't notice any increased scarring after she died several times while completing the Spire (don't go with low health, there are no vendors where that ship takes you). So I'm inclined to blame the Barkskin augment in The Hammerthyst, which she used for a while there before I decided a meat cleaver was more suitable for a tattooed fat chick in hot pants, a corset, knee-high boots, and an oversized wig.

The scarring is white and glows in the dark, and during the day it just looks wrong... like something out of a porno, which leads me to believe that another cause may be unprotected sex.

Does anyone know if there exists a means of reducing or removing the scars?
