Another C&C fan :D Though I loved all of them, Renegade is the only FPS i play, and enethough ive tryed many others nothing comes close to it :p Also Generals and Generals Zero:Hour are very good, but they lost a lot of the addictivness compared to the RA games. They tryed to make it more active and just rushing, when on RA games i loved base building. Also i would add Dune "The Emperor" (or something like that) to the list, although not exactly C&C game, but still an awesome game :)

You havent seen the movie or miniserie Dune? And yea it was also done by Westwood, of course now EA owns it :( And the C&C serie has gone steadily downhill, They cancelled Earth & Beyond too, which was originally Westwoods online game.

First few times I played Generals I really liked it, but even so I think none of the C&C games rival RA2 in terms of playability, god I love that game.. :)

I have been thru quite a lot of stuff but at present I work in theatre, for fun and professionally. I do quite a lot of stuff in schools using very modern music showing teachers how to engage with students. I have directed tons of plays as wider a field as 'Trainspotting' to the Lion the witch and the wardrobe. I have directed a play called underground Lovers that won a European drama festival and went on to the All winners in the UK, we came fourth but won best backstage on that occasion. I write plays also, A slackers guide to western theatre won best original script at a different festival. I am in the process of translating an Alfred Jarry piece into an original script about chav's which I am directing my youth theatre in a competition this year. I teach musical theatre on wednesdays, straight drama on saturdays at Youth theatre. I put students thru drama qualifications.
As a side line I dj crap at parties, still trying to get a hardcore scene going but brussels is very minimal techno stuff. As a hobby I make films, student type stuff as I have no budgets. I am also chairman of the oldest english theatre group in Europe. It will be 100 in 2 years time. Unfortunately I won't be chairman for that as I have to come off after 3 years but at least I get to programme the season for it.
I guess ultimately I want my face on the back of a book like Brecht. Be nice to be remembered as the Happy hardcore Bard

I work for MAC cosmetics, it's a fun job, but can be stressful like all retail jobs, but hey, it pays and that's all that matters.

Had an interview last week and got a phone call on Wednesday to offer me the position of a Stress Engineer which basically means I'll be doing stress and life calcs and similar sorts of stuff on next generation fighter aircraft...... not quite a Jet Pilot, but probably as close as I'll ever get to it lol.
Its kind of the stage before the test work I'm doing at the moment.

Is that for the job I mentioned to him? (BAE).
Hope he's doing well!
