I like cheap. I admit it. When a new game or movie
based on a game comes out, then I am all over the pre-owned section at
EB or the local "trade-your-games-for-cash" shop. I love the new
releases. But the fifty bucks for them- not so much. So today here's a
little over looked adventure/survival game...

Right now little is known about the release of this

I have updated the forums section for the

chat section under Community. If any of you know of forums that
arent listed, please let me know. In addition, if you know of any IRC
related chat channels/servers for the female gamer community, please
shoot me an email with this info or post it in the LG forums. I have
not had a chance to visit all of the MIRC channels that are currently
posted online for the IRC section so it is very outdated.

cork-screws, tunnels, crazy loops of all kinds, whatever your
imagination can add next. When you are finished you have the ability

lakes, trees, and mountains. Once your track is complete the NoLimits
3D engine will render a simulation so realistic you can almost smell
the fear and excitement of the person sitting next to you. If you get
tired of designing you can take a ride on any of 65 the pre-made
tracks, including famous real world coasters such as Montu, Kumba,
