No One Lives Forever Prequel Unveiled

Posted by simoniker on from the screenshots-galore dept.

Thanks to GameSpy.com for their hands-on preview of the PC FPS, Contract J.A.C.K., the prequel to Monolith's critically acclaimed but disappointingly selling No One Lives Forever series. According to the preview, "..the expansion has opted for a male hero, more action and less stealth, and a bit of de-emphasis on the campy 60's feel.. you play Jack - 'just another contract killer' - who's been hired by the nefarious H.A.R.M. to help with a little problem." Contract J.A.C.K. will retail as a stand-alone game for an expansion-pack price (around $30) when it launches in October - could this be the title to finally turn the public on to the NOLF games?

    ...why I seem to be the only one on slashdot who wants to talk about Jennifer Connolly's spectacular knockers? What's wrong with the rest of you guys? Don't you think she's sexy? Haven't you ever seen her in "The Hot Spot"? Or "Mulholands Falls"? Or even "Career Opportunities"?

      You ain't. She is the sexiest woman in Hollywood. And don't forget Inventing the Abbots! And I LOVE her in Career Opportunities. Rrrraow.

      (Horribly off-topic. But damn it, she has spectacular breasts.)

  2. Mac performance by boomerny · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I always thought this looked like an interesting game, but I read in a review that performance was less than stellar(Mac version). They were using an iMac G4@800mhz(well above the stated requirement of a 350mhz G3), so I'm afraid my old Pismo 400 would have problems running it. Unfortunately without a demo to try it out first I have no choice but to pass on this one. Why don't companies just make demos of everything? If there were an Xbox port I'd rent it.

    Whoever had the genius to cast her in Career Opportunities dressed in a white skin-tight tank-top (no bra underneath!) and equally tight black pants deserves a Nobel prize for their contributions to humanity!

    Long after her tits have started to sag, generations of guys will be salavating over the incredible roller-skating and pony-riding scenes! Un-fricken-believeable!
