Does the online multiplayer function still work on it? If so, I'd be up for getting an I-Mockery gaming session going.

What exactly is this game? I have vague memories of a demo of a game on Newgrounds that I think was called that. Is that the one you mean?

No, he's talking about a robot themed RTS from about ten years ago.

It was pretty fun at the time as long as you didn't let your friends tinker with the weapon stats.

It'll more fun now that everybody's computer will be guaranteed to handle thousands of units blowing the shit out of each other

I remember waiting seven, ten minutes for a single game to load on fucking windows 95 :(

What's it like? Kind of like Command and Conquer or maybe Starcraft, or something in another area?

Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of poorly programmed AI robots murdering the fuck out of each other

And the resource system :love

If you join the i-mock Steam group you can use the chat room and game scheduler to set it up.
(Yeah I know it's not a steam game, it shouldn't matter. Just set is as an "important meeting" or something)
