RIPCORD GAMES INTRODUCES TWO NEW PC CD-ROMS.


Ripcord Games has introduced two of their most anticipated PC CD-ROM CD-ROM: see compact disc.

Type of computer storage medium that is read optically (e.g., by a laser).
 titles for the holiday season, Space Bunnies Must Die! and Enemy Infestation infestation /in·fes·ta·tion/ (-fes-ta´shun) parasitic attack or subsistence on the skin and/or its appendages, as by insects, mites, or ticks; sometimes used to denote parasitic invasion of the organs and tissues, as by helminths. , have reached gold master. Each game has been introduced as a PC CD-ROM for an SRP SRP - A data link layer protocol.  of $49.95 each.

Space Bunnies Must Die! is a real-time 3-D adventure that pits a rodeo-riding, trash-talking truck stop waitress named Allison against an army of cute, cuddly 200 pound alien death machines. This tongue-in-cheek title created by Jinx is a bizarre twist on the typical 3D action-shooter, combining face-paced action with the style, atmosphere and humor inspired by the classic "B" horror movies of the 1950's.

Allison sets out to rescue her abducted abducted Distal angulation of an extremity away from the midline of the body in a transverse plane and away from a sagittal plane passing through the proximal aspect of the foot or part, or away from some other specified reference point  twin sister, only to uncover a much more sinister plot. She must run, jump, swing, climb and shoot her way through hordes of evil bunny minions and crazed mutants. An array of stylish costumes protect her from the arsenal of alien weapons and, in a pinch, she'll break out the tunes and start dancing to soothe the savage beasts -- then blast 'em while they bust a move. Space Bunnies Must Die! is supported by an original soundtrack on MCA/Universal's Hip-O record label.

Enemy Infestation is a real-time 3-D multi-player title that places gamers in command of a human colony located in the outermost reaches of space. Created for Ripcord Games by Micro Forte, one of Australia's largest development groups, Enemy Infestation is a frantic and constantly changing battle where teamwork and strategic thinking are of the utmost importance.

Powerful and mysterious alien creatures have landed amidst this new frontier in an attempt to keep their race alive. It takes the assistance of troopers, biochemists, medics, mechanics, service robots and crew to prevent this infestation from destroying the bases and people who inhabit them. These colonist-eating creatures are bent on genocide, so it's crucial to collect and test weapons against the alien's primal killing instinct, discovering what is effective against their ever-adapting physiology.
