  Re: LEGO Racers demo
 
I'm not sure when LMI put up the link, but it was news to me. So I did a search here before posting. I did find this from a while back: (URL) this download site lacked the extra info of the developer's dedicated area. Looks like it's been getting (...)

  General Gripe
 
Is it just me, or does it seem that the games were developed by a bunch of different companies that didn't bother to test their games against each other, didn't bother to use a common set of installed drivers, and didn't bother to get the look and (...) (25 years ago, 28-Dec-99, to lugnet.games)
 
  Re: I got a Friends demo CD in the mail
 
(...) I have the full version. We tried it last night on our Mac through Virtual PC. It ran fine (mostly). I think the concept of an audio/performance construction kit is neat. The girls' dialogue however, was disappointing. A very weak and (IMO) (...) (25 years ago, 25-Dec-99, to lugnet.games.lego.friends)
 
  Re: I got a Friends demo CD in the mail
 
Taya's playing with the real thing as I type this. Seems OK, I guess. Very not at all brick related, but we knew that. So far it hasn't repeated a sequence, stuff seems to be happening, so I guess it's like an interactive adventure of sorts. (25 years ago, 25-Dec-99, to lugnet.games.lego.friends)

  Re: Lego Racers Easter Egg
 
This doesn't have much to do with any Easter eggs, but you can get the demo for Racers from www.gamespot.com. I downloaded it, and have really enjoyed it. It only has one track and a limited selection of drivers, but it is still fun. If the full (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.games)
 
  Rock Raiders Exclusive?
 
I'm curious about the Chief character that appears in the Rock Raiders game. Is there any way to get this minifig (i.e. via coupon, etc) from Lego? The reason I ask is because I saw an ad in a comic book for a Rock Raiders contest where you can win (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.games)
 
  Re: Lego Racers Easter Egg
 
Well, not owning and not having played the game I can't say for sure so anything I do say should be taken with a bit of salt. However.. with all the other racing games I've got with the phantom feature, the phantom car is a repeater of your fastest (...) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.games)

  seems like another sign for Rock Raiders being a Space theme...
 
Hi, I got Lego Rock Raiders today, maybe someone else mentioned elsewhere on lugnet before, but the new CD-Rom is totally based on a new space theme idea. The story is that the Rock Raiders crew is just cruising around IN SPACE and suddenly gets (...) (25 years ago, 28-Nov-99, to lugnet.games.lego.rockraiders)
 
  Re: I got a Friends demo CD in the mail
 
I bought it for my 7 yr old Daughter for Christmas, on the grounds that she likes Scala and is into pop music in a big way. Its also fairly unusual to find games for kids that are not drawing/painting/story books/adventure type things, so it should (...) (25 years ago, 26-Nov-99, to lugnet.games.lego.friends)
