No, it's too late for me. Save yourself!

What exactly is doom metal? And you're right about VI.
-
I think it was only one series. I might have a couple of episodes on video, not sure about that though.
-
It wasn't as bad as that!
Are you sure? I remember it being pretty bad.
-
Power metal's not a lot like doom metal. But anyway, I don't want to continue this argument - I like it, you don't, end of story, as long as we both like Knightmare (hatred of Virtually Impossible being a bonus).

lesson or lesion?

Talking of Broadsword productions, has anyone ever seen the Satellite Game - is it any good?
-
Does anyone remember that program. Okay, this is a Knightmare site I know, but I can't find anymore about it?

I saw it when it was shown. The problem with Virtually Impossible was that the technology wasn't ready for it and the format didn't quite work. Only now is VR technology good enough to present something that (a) the audience can really get into, and (b) can be played seamlessly (as I recall, several teams appeared to have problems controlling their play).
More than that, though, the sort of games on that show demanded player control through handsets and such; and the game was dictated solely by that. This made it difficult to get into because all the audience would see was the reaction of the game to some unseen action by the player(s).
The new Km will not, I predict, have this problem. This is because the said action by the player(s) will be choosing clue objects, answering riddles/questions and acting on clues - a far cry from pushing buttons, which no-one would have been able to connect with.
Knowing the cause of an effect (especially if the effect is negative - the result of a bad decision) will involve the audience to infinitely greater degree and will build tension (particularly when predicting a negative effect such as a messy death!)
If you've read right through up to this point, you win a prize!

I must have been pretty sad. I watched every episode. It used to remind me of "Cyberzone" presented by the very annoying Craig Charles. Does anyone remember that programme?
-
Right, well, I was a big fan of Virtually Impossible, I even applied to go on that show!
No, it wasn't as good as Knightmare, mainly because of the lack of plots, characters, and so on. Also it was based around points rather than a real adventure - you couldn't even die (well, you could, but then you had to buy another life - I always wanted the teams to refuse!).
Thinking back, it wasn't a very good show, but I enjoyed it - not knowing that Knightmare would be cancelled at that time, I just saw it as a show to tide me over until KM series 9, which didn't happen...
...still, meh. I liked it. Kinda. At least it tried.
Oh, and Cod-P looked like a pooka, which helped.
and real rock music ;D
