k: I remember the "how to be a complete bast@rd!" Game...

I spent hours playing it, without realising that there didn't actually seem to be a plot, you just went around doing stupid things. Throwing darts at people, and turning tv's on and off?! :crazy:

And it was Rik Mayal.

If this game isn't about playing Spider Jerusalem, then it's a lie!

Speaking of Speccies, has anyone seen this: Profanity Adventures?

The game was based upo a book by three fellows, one of them Ade Edmonson...


http://www.aceshopping.com/cgi-bin/amazon_...-locale-uk.html

The main character was called Ade as well. But looking at the cover shot, it doesn't look much like either Ade or Rik.

I remembered something else about the game, too - if you drank too much beer, your bottom screen would start spinning uncontrollably...to simulate extreme drunken-ness, I suppose :P I gave up playing after that because trying to navigate without the help of the secod angle was frustrating, but I'm guessing you had to drink coffee to solve the problem.

Just to let you know it is Ade Edmunson that it's referring to as I have the book "How to be a complete B@stard" it's very funny :bleh:
