Remember Kingpin: life of Crime?

Post by FlyingPenguin »

God I miss this game. It was based on the Quake 2 engine.

The single player was okay, but I spent a lot of hours in multiplayer. They did something very unique for a 1999 multiplayer game: You could customize 5 or 6 different things about your avatar's looks (shirt, pants, head, hat, and whether or not you had a cigar I think). That resulted in something that's common now, but unheard of back then: Everyone looked different.

They had a variation of CTF that involved stealing money from the enemy team's safe, and trying to get it back to your safe.

The game was infamous for it's use of foul language, another rarity at that time.

One of the best weapons was the flame thrower. The screams when someone burned. Oh man.



Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.
