Emulator or some sort of re-released version? Was always a great looking game but that looks far clearer than I remember.

The University ponder their options to dislodge their Spartan rivals. Years of defensive naval engagements has stopped the Spartans from invading but the threat needs to be permanently snuffed before it gets too strong.

An invasion of our own is unthinkable, the Spartans are well-trained and well-fortified. Their island lush with its jungle bioscape will be a deathtrap to any invading army.
Clearly another course of action must be taken. Provost Zhakarov sends a short message to the UN peacekeepers.

'Brother Lal, I need your vote in the upcoming UN Council. Things are very untenable. We must repeal the UN Charter to break this deadlock'
The monitor lights up in response. A counter-offer.

Zhakarov smiles. This is a bargain. Oh, Lal you naive fool.

The council ends and a flurry of activity follows in all the University bases.
'Unleash the Hawx.'

Ten years later, the Spartans once-prosperous stronghold is barely recognizable.
Colonies were massacred to the last man as dozens of missiles flew overhead unleashing deadly showers of gas.
The retreating Spartan land forces were under constant naval bombardment. Not a single ground engagement took place.
The Hive attempts to reinforce their ally, but the naval blockade was too strong, multiple transports were sunk before they could make landfall.
At last, Spartan Command HQ fell under continuous bombardment. What remains of the Spartan forces are now forced to make a last stand on the western tip of the island.

As the dust settled on the southern tip of the island, a University colony pod makes its drop accompanied by several jump-jet troopers.
The Provost steps out with a triumphant smile.

'At last. Victory.'

Rest in pieces, Mr. Miyagi.

'Colonel, we've lost contact with Assassin's Redoubt. Fort Survivalist has surrendered. I've directed all remaining soldiers to make a last stand here in Blast Rifle Crag.'

More mouths to feed. What good would that do? Santiago wondered, her men are starved of supplies, fuel and ammunition. Every year, veterans and elite units alike were disbanded. Guns and vehicles fell into disrepair. No energy to power basic needs. Once she was the master of this prosperous island, now just overseeing a colony on the verge of death.

Gunboats are closing in on her shores, raining shells on her men with near impunity. Distant sound of jets closing in. Doom approaches.

'Incoming gunship! Nerve gas payload confirmed!'
'Hand me the missile launcher!' she shouted. So be it. Damn Lal's hypocrisy!

'Santiago's still alive? Amusing. Keep her. Next to Deidre's sphere.'
'Provost, we've secured the entire island. Colony drop pods are homing in on every suitable spot, we're calling back the Hawx squadrons for repairs. The Spartan flag flies no more. A small detachment of Believers attempted to make landfall but were destroyed.'

'Good, it's not over. Not yet.'

The new DLC A Hat In Time has gone down like a lead balloon so I've gone back to a real N64 game: Majora's Mask. Playing with Project 64 it's really a lot better than I remember and the framerame and clarity is much improved in the emulator

Why is there still no mod that removes the real world weapons and the unnecessary pop cultural references and such from Fallout 2?

 

[Unkillable Cat]

Why is there still no mod that removes the real world weapons and the unnecessary pop cultural references and such from Fallout 2?

Because there's autism and then there's Advanced Autism, and the latter is required to de-pop Fallout 2 as it has close to 400 known pop culture references.

Haven't played anything like that for years. Didn't make it too far.

The latter is also required to give a fuck that they're in there. Especially considering that the Americana theme of the setting is basically a pop culture reference itself.
