Jackie bought me the Farscape PC game last week (according to the minimum requirements it shouldn\u2019t even run on my box, but it does just fine, which I\u2019ll credit to a large). The controls are a little weird, but the 360 pan is cool and EVERY SINGLE VOICE was done by the original actors, which is very cool. I already miss hearing those guys. Gigi\u2019s \u2018Chiana\u2019 voice is so cool.
\nThe secondary characters (which means anyone but the guy you’re currently controlling directly) don\u2019t follow directions worth a damn, but that\u2019s on purpose — you definitely have the sense that you\u2019re in charge (not control) of a bunch of disparate alpha personalities. Luckily you can switch control to anyone you\u2019re working with at the time, so if Chi\u2019s wandering off out of boredom, you can switch to her and get her back in line.
\nCrighton follows any of the female characters very closely. Go fig.
\nAnyway, lots of shooting things and sounds of pulse pistols going off. Always good.
\n(Somehow, computer-controlled Chiana with a pulse rifle uses less ammo than I do running Crighton with a lil’ ol’ pulse pistol. Witness my lack of surprise.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
