A very fun game. The carnage you can cause if you time it right is just insane. When the cars crash and you see JFK and the rest of the car fly into the air is very funny. You can't not like this game, its funny and you can't help playing it again and again
Has anyone managed to hit the driver of the bus? I can't seem to do it. I know it would cause havoc but i just keep missing him!![]()
I just loaded to game to try it. The bus only appears near the end of the game, so after shooting the driver there isn't much time for chaos. First time I shot him the screen almost immediately turned black. I needed the ballistics report to make sure I actually got him. Second attempt: the bus did speed up but just hit the building on its right, again, black screen almost immediately.Originally Posted by The Blind King of Bohemia
I also shot JFK (yet another new game of course) to see if the bus would still show up and it didn't, so I think starting mayhem that way would be pretty hard.
My personal favorite was shooting off the driver the jumps on the back of the JFK limo, he fell off and got run over by the car with all the bodyguards, which also caused the ones on the side to fall off![]()
BTW 2 shots at the bus driver, 2 kills, I didn't realize my sniper skills were so 1337 !![]()

I did manage a shot which killed one of the Bus drivers while he was driving but he grounded to a halt rather than crash
They shouldn't stop the game when the bus enters. Oswald left the scene and hid in a movie theatre. He shot an officer on the way there.
Wooooo!!!
You're sounding alot like Jack Thompson there. Games cause young people to go and kill...on what basis do you deduct that playing an assassination game like JFKR would make me lose the distinction between reality and fantasy? What you're described in that second paragraph might as well be the next GTA, thus rendering your argument an oxymoron. I think.Originally Posted by Zorba
I am actually seeing a psychiatrist for various mental health issues, so could we please not touch on that subject thank you.Originally Posted by Zorba
Lighten up dooods, it's a game.
I might try it tonight.
Man, I thought we were over this...Originally Posted by currywurry
And I did not know about that. Sorry.
Gents lets try and keep this to a discussion of the merits of the JFK game, and not stray into Jack Thompson territory and personal insults territory. Regardless of real life situations the org isn't the place for amateur psychiatry on other patrons, and comments in that vein could meet with a certain amount of shock and awe.
Reasoned debate: good
Personal debate: bad
Lets leave it with the apologies, and move on
I've played this game, it's a nice time filler on a Friday afternoon at work. Once you've got over the content, which admittedly not being Americamn lacks a good deal of resonance for me any how, it's quite a challenge to get the assassination right.

This thread derailed once. I got here when it appeared to have recovered of its own accord, making any action by me unnecessary. I do prefer to be a quiet frog where possible, rather than studding people with hairpins. I wondered about posting a note when this topic was new, but chose not to precisely for this reason. Also the assumption that I would not need to re-iterate the rules.
Now I arrive to find it has derailed again, and appears to be recovering again.
A third time and I will close the topic, regardless of the state it is in when I arrive or how long it takes me to get here.
Discuss the game. If you really must, discuss the morals behind the game, but do so in a polite, reasoned, non-personal way. This is not the backroom. I could play it very strictly and consign any discussion on the morals of a game to the backroom, but I thought in this case I would see how it went rather than using the backroom as a dumping ground. The result so far is not entirely encouraging.
