Hi,
At least we could listen to awesome music while loading a game way back then; the Ocean tape loader music is still one of my favorite musics ever. Nowadays, however...all one can do is wonder if the game might have crashed while staring at the hourglass mouse cursor...
I hadn't bought Vampire because of all the reported bugs. Now, hearing you praising it so much, I think I'll have to buy it now nonetheless...damn it. :ph34r:
