Slings and videogames? (Read 1357 times)

Mauro Fiorentini Slinging.org Moderator Forge your future with the hammer of your mind! Posts: 3072 Gender:	Slings and videogames? Mar 27^th, 2011, 6:45am Hallo there, I've made a search for such a topic, but have found nothing. So, the question is: have you ever find slinging action in some videogame? I know that good, old Baldur's Gate offers the sling as a weapon, with magical projectiles too; any other videogame? Greetings, Mauro.

Reply #4 - Mar 27^th, 2011, 12:23pm In Pitfall: the Mayan Adventure, the hero wields a sling as a ranged weapon. You pressed the Y button which whirled the sling, then release the button to let the stone go. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCDgoOrkp58 he does it at 1:57

Reply #9 - Mar 30^th, 2011, 2:11pm I played runescape for a few years, got sick of it as I realized I was just playing for stats and there wasn't much actual gameplay anymore... That's neat that they have slings now though. What kind of ammo do you use? An older game I really like is Stronghold Crusader, they have slings in that one, it's a very fun game.

Reply #13 - Apr 1^st, 2011, 11:04pm runescape slings are for nubs only. they are a scam by jagex to get millionares, LIKE ME , to think it was some high powered weapon, then spend 30 gp on them. proven fact
