[IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/marine_03/4yu35ty.jpg[/IMG] [B]Shit I hope you all remember this game because this is a timeless classic.[/B] Armed and Dangerous, often shortened to AnD or A&D, is a video game created by Planet Moon Studios and released by LucasArts. It is a third-person Action/Adventure Comedy shooter which parodies both other games and several other media such as The Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and Monty Python and the Holy Grail, using humorous in-game dialogue and cutscenes. The game is for both PC and the xbox. Is also backwards compatible for the Xbox 360. Armed and Dangerous is a third-person shooter action game, the camera hovering behind Roman, the player character, at all times. The game is played mostly on foot, with most levels incorporating usable gun emplacements, although there are some base defense levels where the player is inside a movable gun turret mounted on rails on top of a defensive wall; these levels are played in first-person. [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/marine_03/armed_dangerous_profilelarge.jpg[/IMG] Not really first person but it looks like you're in a turret with two machineguns and a bomb, there also tends to drop powerups such as fast rockets or health packs, and sometimes the certian robots drop down! [B]Copypasta time![/B] (Couldn't find a good picture so go by the screenshots) Roman is the game's player character. Raised in poverty and having to scrape by any way he can, Roman is the sort of man that anyone would want by their side when the bullets start flying. He is clever, courageous, and cocky; A master thief and extremely skilled with many weapons...on the outside he appears to believe that the King's iron grip on the world is insurmountable, it's a dog eat dog world, but inside he really has a glowing heart and would do anything for his mates. * Roman is armed with a Hawkings rifle, Flemming Machine Gun and Sticky Grenades. * Rexus is his father figure. * Wears the mask to look like a bandit. * Has a stereotypical Cockney accent. * His singing is somewhat inept. [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/marine_03/jonesy.jpg[/IMG] Jonesy is an anthropomorphic mole who happens to be Roman's oldest friend, He's an explosive expert and loves nothing more than a good old-fashioned bomb, as he tends to identify with anything that blows up when messed with. Jonesy's a rather irritable moleman and is short of stature and patience. His homeland was destroyed by King Forge, He cares about nothing and nobody except for Roman and Q; as they're all he has in the world. First and foremost he believes the Lionhearts should look out for themselves and make off with the loot, wherever the loot may be. * Jonesy laughs at explosions. * Has a twisted sense of humour. * Takes on enemies with his twin set of Molmers Pistols. * Is quite belligerent. * Curses a lot. * Jonesy has a Scottish accent. (Couldn't find a good one either here, so go by the top screenshot) Originally one of the King's elite robotic guards, Q became painfully self aware during a tea experiment, and found himself attempting a conversation with a conveyor belt. He tried to convince the other robots to leave with him, but they were programmed to ignore everyone except King Forge's officers. Q was charged and sent to prison, marked for the scrap heap. Where Roman and Jonesy found him, Roman was the first fellow to ever treat Q like a person and so they became good friends. Q has taken upon himself the duty of being Roman's servant, often making him tea and being fiercely protective of him. Q is a vain, well-spoken, and debonair robot... although he never, ever refers to himself as a robot. He is more refined than the other Lionhearts, and tends to have his own level of humour. * Has his own customised Chaingun. * Easily distracted, slow witted, calm and relaxed. * Is known to adopt a 'surfers accent'. * His plans often don't have the desired effect. * Gives Roman tea in the midst of battle. * Believes that Roman wears his mask to hide bad teeth. [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/marine_03/rexus.jpg[/IMG] Rexus was once a world-famous seer, but a certain head trauma he received 31 years ago has made his ability to remember his past a bit foggy. Actually, he can't remember anything. Over the years he has degenerated into blindness, madness, and smelliness. He is universally hated for losing the Book of Rule, and so moved to Bergog Wasteland to escape persecution. Rexus is ancient, filthy, smells like a cesspit, and is constantly followed by a cloud of flies, which he refers to as "his only friends". Although blind, Rexus has a powerful sixth sense, although he thinks it's due to the huge glass eyes he sometimes stuffs into his sockets. * King Forge wants him captured. * Sealed the 'Book of Rule' with a magic spell and made it into a book about basket weaving, which bizarrely causes those who read it to become obsessed with weaving baskets of all sizes. * Has a bad memory and is going senile. * Appears to have had an interesting relationship history. * Has two glass eyes, although he only wears one during most of the game. * Still has some amount of power, and uses it to help the Lionhearts occasionally, for example getting some of the King's guards to surrender by convincing them they're French causing them to drop their weapons and run away.

Bombs & Trinkets: Disc Bombs, Hypnotism Bomb, Topsy Turvy that turns the whole world upside down for a few seconds, leaving you hanging into the ground luckily. I forgot the rest so tell me if I forgot any. [IMG]http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i308/marine_03/400250-a_and_d_073_super.jpg[/IMG] If you've not played this, play it. If you have played this, do it again.
Roman? [img]http://www.gta4.tv/img/content/612.png[/img] [b]Niko, my cousin![/b]
I've not played this, might get it though.
Sharkgun is the best weapon in any game, [b]EVER[/b].
It was okay. The bizarre weapons were easily the highlight of the game.
I played the demo once, but never got around to getting the full game. Topsy turvy was hilarious.
This game is awesome. I still have it too :D
I have it on xbox original, best fucking game ever and knocks postal out of its league
Wasn't this game done by the same people who did Giants: CK? If so, it's pretty much bound to be awesome.
This game was so awesome. The cutscenes were the best, and I LOVED the tea-drinking Robot. Also the old blind mole-man was hilarious... I remember in one scene they gave him a pair of googly-eyes and claimed that he was "Ol' Eagle Eyes back from the War"... and then his fake eyes fell out. ;P Hilarity ensued.
Shark gun fuck yeah :c00l:
Hell yes this game was amazing.
Oh, the shark gun. Goddamn... I gotta get this game
Loved this game.
I had this game. The gameplay got kind of repetitive and boring but the story and cutscenes were so great I had to keep going to see what happened next. Also the teammate AI was pretty much non existant, they just stayed next to you and shot at what you shot at(and that includes when you shoot at nothing).
Land. Shark. Gun.
Fuck yeah, I loved this game.
holy shit nostalgia beautiful game
Best game
Wasn't there a weapon that you screwed into the ground, and then gravity reversed and all the enemies fell off the planet?
That'd be the topsy turvy he mentioned. The shark gun was great. I also recall some kind of black hole gun. My favorite scene was when Rexus immediately resorted to drinking his own urine when they were stranded in the desert. And wouldn't stop even when they realized they weren't lost at all.
i remember this game it was fucking awesome
You missed the Gardening Robots, whatever they were called, OP
