I suspect the cheetah is domesticated, and playing. Sadly the illegal pet trade is a serious problem.

And sadly, there is no help. :( Some people just want it, and as long they are willing to pay for it? All you can do to keep in check smuggling. Eradicate? Forget about it! The forbidden fruit always sweeter, and people willing to pay a lot!

And no catchphrase can change this.
The thing is harder you pursuit smugglers, the more expensive the ware became. The risk increases? Yup! But so as the gain. And the bigger the reward? It's became more and more worthy to the people who willing to take the risk, or just too stupid to realize it.

Any of you read Joy Adamson's books? Or Dian Fossey story? They are both died because of the animal(part) smugglers, poachers. This is not a joke, and there is a huge money on it.
especially in Africa. Wonder medicines, trophies, decoration, not to mention ivory and rhino tusk. Water mammals and pets? just the tip of the iceberg.

What was a huge step forward is monkeys now recognized as a (semi)intelligent species, with some right. This is something but far from resolution.
I do hope water mammals can also have this benefit, especially dolphinkind, the only real difference between them and us, is the lack of hand, but many whale and dolphin species have their own very complex language by "tribe", and also their own customs.

I only just found this. I am sure it's posted around here somewhere but I missed it.

For those who have missed it, I thought I'd share.

Good remake i seen it too a few times, i wonder can we hear the old songs in the game?
And also i wonder if we can see the turner class ingame? Except the IMP ships whom current resemblance are more the turner class, than the old Imp Courier.

I found how it's sounded like with roland Sound card. Which was pretty famous back then.

But if you ever heard with awe 64 you know its just a worthless piece of junk. sorry but there is no awe 64 version of the intro, so there is something else for comparison.

Edit; Anyway can i ask you something? If you must choose between elite 1 and 4 and you can have one of it, which one it will be?
So much about bringing back the past, or recreating it. It's worth the respect, the fond memories we have, worth to remember it, hell! even a remake is a good idea, or keep the best elements. If you have the tendency like me, to play with sometimes decades old game than do it! But to throw out all of the window, what we currently have, just for the sake an old game? :rolleyes: I think i will pass!

Is it only me, or does this glare look something like "Your death will be horrible. Slow and horrible"

If you love it, than you must let it go, but if you simply throw out the prisoner bird to the wild? Than you condemn him to death!

There are taxicab confessions and then there are taxicab confessions. I am pretty sure this one would qualify as the later. If curious then check out "Roberto Benigni - Night On Earth - Taxi Cab Ride 1 of 2 - English Subtitles" on YT. I first saw it many years ago and almost died laughing. The look of the guys face in the backseat hearing the confession is priceless.
