    If its gonna be anything like the series (and I hope it will be) how are you supposed to win? In the series they rarely if ever achieve anything close to victory. The last season was pretty damn depressing what with every one and their mother after them.

    Sure Dargo got his son back but then the brat goes and pokes Dargo's girl friend.

    I'm sure the game is going to be alot like a 2 hr special. A bunch of problems to solve and bad guys to kill. But at the end of it there still royally screwed.

    It still should be fun though.

    tangent; Does anyone know if Zahn is still dead? I'm catching up with the reruns and they keep showing them out of order.

  2. Space Quest / Old Sierra Style by Afreet1 · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I hope this game is more like the old Space Quest games where you actually had to think about what to do and solve puzzles. Sierra really dropped the ball when they cancelled all of their "Action/adventure games." If the Farscape game is done well in the Diablo style it should still rock.
