Or dislike?

I am not to fond of Lemmings 3D.

Can't say I like Lemmings 3D either. Although I'm not Paintball's number one fan, I think that one is decent enough in a certain sense to not make it to my hate list.

Adam · « **Reply #2 on:** June 06, 2009, 01:32:28 AM »

I'm a bit of a traditionalist with Lemmings! I don't really like any game which doesn't have the original 2d gameplay!

Clam · « **Reply #3 on:** June 06, 2009, 01:37:45 AM »

Paintball. No question.

I liked 3D lemmings back when I played it, but I do prefer the original 2d versions.

So much hate for paintball..

It is a great game!

It's called Lemmings 3D, not 3D Lemmings. )-:

While the puzzles are of good quality in Lemmings Revolution, I'm gonna have to put that one at the top of my hatelist due to the sloptastic software engineering.

It wasn't exactly the best quality lemmings game I've ever played. Like Lemmix, it crashes upon close in XP!

The only Lemmings game I've never really cared for is Lemmings Paintball. But that's not to say that the others are all perfect. I could probably name at least one thing I don't like about every Lemmings title out there (e.g. camera handling in Lemmings 3D, glitchy behavior of Lemmings Revolution, etc.).

Dullstar · « **Reply #8 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:17:43 AM »

I haven't played paintball, so I don't really know what it's like. I'm not saying that means it's good, though.

Is it just me, or is this website awfully slow at the moment?

Mr Kiwi · « **Reply #9 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:17:55 AM »

Again, I think you are all crazy... Paintball was fantastic.

The Doctor · « **Reply #10 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:20:11 AM »

I wouldn't say I was a huge fan of it, but I don't hate it. For a game that plays in more than one dimension (isometric as it is) it beats Lemmings 3D in my opinion.

Dullstar · « **Reply #11 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:21:06 AM »

I didn't say I didn't like paintball, I said I never played it before.

I've never had Lemmings Revolution crash on XP... Then again, I'm running SP1 because I don't want Microsoft telling me I can't use my computer, so maybe it's their fault.

Dullstar · « **Reply #13 on:** June 06, 2009, 03:58:13 AM »

I should probably display this joke error I made in this website.

It seems true on my computer, except for the fact that Windows cannot crash while I am in Linux.

The Doctor · « **Reply #14 on:** June 06, 2009, 04:02:42 AM »

Keep on topic!

I just thought of another game I don't really like in the Lemmings series: Lemmings Tribes for mobile phones. While it's a good game, it's too freakin' slow on any phone/MIDP emulator I've used!

PS: Ya know, continuously complaining about Lemmix, and then asking for EricLang to edit it to suit your fangame is what is known as biting the hand that feeds you.

Maybe I should have added the following quote:

And I don't recall saying that it's Lemmix's problem, I'm sayin' it's a Windows error! What do you expect from something that works on WINE fine, except for a few problems! The play testing doesn't HAVE to work, because WINE is not what Lemmix was made for. It was made for Windows, and obviously my Windows does not like it.

That, or your idea of an error free installation of software differs from, say, a computer technician's idea of an error free installation of software, be it Windows or Lemmix.

Anyway, Ubuntu should see you well.

But back on topic! ...

I just tried the PlayStation version of Lemmings 3D. Even worse.

Re: error pic - wouldn't "crashing at greater intervals" be a good thing?

Anyway, I should explain my reasoning for not liking Paintball. When I first saw this game, I was still young (maybe 7) and right into the original Lemmings game. When I saw this, I pretty much thought "That's just not lemmings". Which sounds absurd because, of course, it is lemmings. But it's so completely different to the classic puzzle game I know and love, and I've never been a fan of shooter games.

So, in my own mind, it's just not Lemmings. If that makes sense at all $:-\$

GuyPerfect · « **Reply #18 on:** June 06, 2009, 04:23:21 AM »

Hey, it's more Lemmingsy than Lomax. Though for what it's worth, Lomax was pretty well-done.

Mr Kiwi · « **Reply #19 on:** June 06, 2009, 04:24:28 AM »

It is a puzzle game more then a shooter... You just have to look past the paintball guns.

Also the music is Tr

Crud! Messed up there. Okay, pretend that says, "Shorter intervals," or something along that effect.

Chmera · « **Reply #21 on:** June 06, 2009, 02:40:28 PM »

I freaking love Paintball and Lomax. I've heard that Lomax was actually planned to be longer, with a better ending, but the team were forced to rush towards the end - the deisgn and such are great early on but it falls apart toward the finale, which correlates with this.
As for Paintball, it's just fun. I didn't think about whether it was lemmings or not when I played it.

...Though this is all coming from someone who hasn't finished a single game yet.

Dullstar · « **Reply #22 on:** June 06, 2009, 07:23:13 PM »

Like I said, I never even played Paintball before, so I don't know how it plays at all.

Remember the play-through of Lemmings I was doing? I have not finished it yet, seeing as I got stuck on POOR WEE CREATURES!

We, at the moment, have something in common, Chmera!

Chmera · « **Reply #23 on:** June 08, 2009, 01:57:17 PM »

I don't think I even got that far. D:

Dullstar · « **Reply #24 on:** June 08, 2009, 09:41:50 PM »

Oh dear!

Wow. And I already beat the level.
