A telnet client.

It’s Java, but explicitly uses Ruby as its internal language.

It works fairly well for what it is.. but it lacks some basic functionality, namely running a startup script and allowing scripts to set the internal state of the program. So I’m forced to manually load a savefile on startup, and forced to manually connect to a MUD.

This movie is BAD. It’s an un-movie.

There is no plot, no thinking, no psychological thriller to be had. It’s a moody drama, and a bad one at that. It reminds me of bits and pieces of Roswell – (1999 show).

This is Mega Man 1 to 8 (with 9 and 10 being locked)

This is definitely better than Mega Man X Collection – (2006 game), for reasons I can’t articulate. Mega Man 8 pimps the Mega Man (1994 TV series) quite hard, with a nonsense intro sequence that drags on and on.

“Not bad”, but not that great either. Quite interesting gameplay. Has definite potential.

The progression of the game is ponderous. The visuals are terrible, the gameplay could be a lot worse. I suspect that there is some fundamentally bad mojo with the game engine.. the interface is “okay”.. all in all it’s not a keeper.

  • There’s a Summoner 2 .. and the gameplay is totally different.
