I haven't seen this at the usual places (unless I missed it somehow!), and it would be a great port.

The game is Abuse, and it's a dark sidescrolling shooter that has an AvP feel.

here's a link to the homepage, where there's a link to the source and the game:

it's been brought up a few times, and i would love to see this game ported.

this link, however would be a much better sourcebase to port from, being that it's based on sdl

http://www.labyrinth...~trandor/abuse/

it's the same game, this is just based on sdl

Hey, Ecroflirt, thanks for the links on this one!
One of my fav games on my old Macintosh when it first came out - never quite finished it even tho' many long nights playing.
Great!!

The control would be really cool with double analogue sticks too.

I just think Abuse was made for an Xbox/Gamecube/PS2 controller. <

hell yeah, abuse would rock...

I seem to remember it had some multiplayer mode, but I could never get it going...

and it had a level editor also. <

this would be cool with the xbox controller!

the whole reason I suggested it was because of how well it would work with the Xbox controller <

YES, a port of this would seem inevatable!

I would definatly make up for BlowOut or what ever that crappy Abuse spin off was called. <

YEah, damn right, that would be amazing. Abuse had quite a big development scene as well so it should be quite good to use due to all the homebrew levels for it. <

Ohh yeah... I bought this game when it first came out.

Lost my copy somewhere along the line but it is such a great game. <
