Falcon. My game has started to guru regularly, esp in the very begining. Is this normal? Should IU retuyrn it, since it isz only 2 weeks old? Beast. Cool game but the waits are excruciating, esp after dying. I have found the key, crushed the gargoyals orb, drunk the potiuon. But I cant beat the sliding skeleton chair? Camn I get some hints from someone? And is their any way to cut the turnaround time after dying? Or the boot up picture wher e I wait forever to finish that song?!!?!? thanks paul -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Graphiti on the wall of civil rights organization in the sixties "There is a town in Mississippi named Liberty There is a Department in Washington called Justice" A more socially aware sort of .sig witting@topaz.rutgers.edu

I agree the waiting time is pathetic. I kinda figured the death song to be punishment for dying in the first place. The orb is the last thing you want to get before going to kill the beast in the sliding skeleton chair. That orb is actually a weapon, when you punch after getting it you throw a ray in the direction of your punch. You need it to kill the sliding beast. If anyone else has played it, I could use a hint in defeating the red monster that has the spikes coming from the floor in front of it. I have found the power punch but still die from the spikes. Do you just have to have a ton of lives to survive? I hope my opening statement doesn't deter people from buying the game, it has to be one of the best games I've ever seen or played. The graphics and sound are amazing.
