The Videos

For those of us who got the original CD version of FFE there was a special treat instore for us, full motion videos! Hurrah! However, they were a bit, um, well, I dont think they were supposed to be quite so funny...

For those of you that got the disk version or have downloaded the shareware/jjffe/other version, you wont have the videos, sorry. You can view the videos by visiting http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nj.eccles/ and looking in the downloads section!

So here is 'the list' I posted to the newsgroup several years ago, prompted by a severe fit of boredom, rediscovered in the Google archives only recently. Its something of a sarcastic review of the worst videos (production, acting etc) and helps keep you entertained for at least 3 mins... They can be found in the 'data' section of the cd.

fsh6.avi - "Action!!"
st27.avi - <MUMBLE, bad editing>
fr6.avi - fustrated Shakespeare act-o-r (see c10.avi too)
fr1.avi - the worst wig in the world? (same actor as st7.avi)
f41.avi - some kind of gaffaw at the beginning
f30.avi - "...there was a full stop there you fool..."
(p9, p10, p11 for more bad acting from this bloke)
f29.avi - see above
f17.avi - "..I said _feeeeeeling_ man <I cannot work with these amateurs>..."
(look, he may be good at assembler programming, but that doesn't mean he'll be a good actor ...)
f15.avi - getting personal...
c7.avi - The mystery sound at the start
bb2.avi - "I'm to stoned to be bothered..."
c40.avi - Hey, look, he's just been snorting something (see above)
c39.avi - You would of thought they'd choose some one who can speak - see c47.avi too.
c30.avi - I bet they all feel like fools now... (p16, p17, sh5 too)
c19.avi - What's that last word? ('invidia'? - probably 'in video')
c15.avi - The hideously fake accent begins to slip (in 'fight')
c14.avi - Mystery sound 2 at the end (a voice)
c13.avi - Her 2 front teeth drop out at the end, right on the smile too, shame :).
bb9.avi - Quite the pastiche.
bb7.avi - "Now I'm all butch, grrrr" (see above)
bb43.avi - Even after 1300 years, he's still sporting *that* haircut
bb42.avi - "He he, its mad," qoutes the video, "I'm well 'ard too, me"
bb33.avi - This guy is missing half his head (at the start)
bb22.avi - "Well done, you spotted today's deliberate mistake" he said through gritted teeth...
bb17.avi - Oh, ha ha bloody ha, my sides are splitting.
You hear the beginning of a 'D' word at the end with this one, probably something along the lines of 'dick head'.
p31.avi - A good 'shrimp' ?? Doesn't he mean 'shrink' ??
p32.avi - Mystery Sound 3 at the end (laughter?, is there a Baboon there too?)
p6.avi - Mystery Sound 4 at the end (something being dropped?)
r3.avi - You can see his red shirt in the bottom left where the costume, er I mean bit of carpet, they've used isn't big enough. (r4 too)
sh1.avi - You can hear a dog barking throughout this one. Maybe this is a nod to all those Sci-fi B movies...Dogs in Space!


f46.avi - Listen up Braben!
f43.avi - Listen up Gametek!
f50.avi - neither am I ...
