It is certainly possible for a cartridge to have its own modem. In fact, a game already has that capability, that old chess game in Japan. If there is a modem, there should be internet capabilities, allowing people to play on the internet instead of modem. Maybe Nintendo should set up some server thing like those Quake, Quake2, and Unreal servers. It would be much easier and atract more buyers. Everyone knows how fun Multiplayer is like on the net. I'd love to see SC on the n64 and being able to play on modem too.

I.E. If one of those spikes for the Hydra is 10 hit points ( I don't know the exact number) It will only count as 5 against small units, and 8 against medium units, and 10 against large units. A marines attacks are "normal" so the damage it causes is the same for every type of unit. It has 6 hit points. Now, if it could get a stim, it would fire twice as fast but lose a quarter of its health, but the more hits counts. I just heard this from a strategy person on the net. Its like, a hydra can attack a protoss scout quite good since the scout is a large unit. The explosive damage of a hydra will have all its hit points count against a large unit, and the scouts attacks are normal. I'm not sure how it works but when I was zerg, one of my hydras (not upgraded) encountered a scout. He didn't really kill it but the scout lost all its shields and had 4 health left.

It was on MTV news, did anyone else see this? A Tombraider movie would be cool, I'd go see it defiantly :). I've seen the Mario Brothers Movie, it was in fact on Showtime last week. I say the movie makes no sense, and Nintendo really wasn't involved, as in how the story goes, they just lent the characters, and there land. etc. Bye! - -Sean [ To quit the n64 mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe n64" ] [ (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 18 Jul 1998 12:43:31 EDT From: Subject: [N64] Final Fantasy Movie Hey There is a movie called Final Fantasy, I own it, its made by Japan Anime.
