This is written by Yegolev. I'm posting it because I'm antsy.

Enjoy. 56k Users beware.

It was AvP that allowed you to pin body parts to walls.

Fucking great game, that.  The follow up was a little weaker IMO.  The aliens were turned into total pussies.

Not my sort of game, but I really enjoyed the article.  I'm thinking of getting this one for my nephew.

Yes.  I think you could do that in AvP2.  I do remember blowing off a human's head with a shotgun and subsequently finding a jawbone on the floor.  That game was so close to amazing, yet so far.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

I wouldn't have minded a bit more commentary on the leapers - I'm sure you had a few choice words while you were playing.  I know I did.

I'm not complaining, though.  Some things might be better for people to experience on their own.   :-D
