One knows that life seems to be high priced, nevertheless we need cash for different things and not every man earns enough money. Therefore to receive fast mortgage loans and consolidation loans will be a right solution.

Wonder why the sequel could not be commercialized nowadays? If I had the money, I would fund the open-source project and commercialize the game. I bet it would be a huge hit (I believe fans know how to create an enjoyable sequel with the original Outcast spirit in it) and thus it would give kudos to the original game. And also maybe do a remake of the original game with todays graphics for those who have never played the original outcast and don’t bother playing “old” games anymore. BTW just finished Outcast the second time after many years and agree with others: it’s one of the best games ever :) Just my 2 cents.

I just installed it. I was a little concerned by the old-school’ness of the controls, but there’s a Control.ini file that you can modify to your liking. I’m gonna go out of control on this game this weekend.

without doubt my favourite game ever. I get nostalgic about this in a way I don’t really about anything else. It broke my heart that a sequel could not be made.

What modern day open ended games like oblivion don’t seem to understand, is the importance of the meaning of the overall vision, and fitting everything into that context. Although Outcast is free roaming, everything seems thematically related to the purpose of the game, which is basically anti-colonialist. With games like Oblivion, not only is the main story quite boring and bland, but none of the secondary plots/characters and locations really have anything to do with any overall purpose or theme, making them feel empty and characterless.

Long live Outcast!

[...] do a little hardcore PC gaming. I’ve been spending time with some old favorites, System Shock 2, Outcast, and Freespace 2. Running with the Open Freespace Project’s enhancements FS2 looks awesome, but [...]

Compared to Outcast, Mass Effect is unbelievably bad.

Great, great game. One of my favorites still today.

Crap reviews? It won a lot of “adventure game of the year” in the internet, for example, on Gamespot!!!

Gutted! I never played this at the time because all the games mags gave it crap reviews. Looks like I missed out big time, as this sound like just the kind of game I would have loved, warts and all.

My favourite game of all time! And probably the best NPCs of all time.. to this date i still nostalgically check every few years hoping a sequel will emerge.
