Doesn't look dated?  Are you playing the same game?

I just installed it for the first time (it's been in a box with a lot of 
other untouched software getting dusty since......???) and it's insanely 
simple.

I just finished playing halo (pc) for the.....umm.....millionth time (?) 
and wanted something new to do.  So I actually dug through my box and 
ta-da!  A game I've never played.

But it's so insane it's not even funny!  Is there a way to slow the guy 
down?  He runs so fast it's all a (pixelated) blur.  Besides holding the 
walk key, is there anything else?  Some .ini fix or something?

Also......do I eventually get grenades?  Cause.....well....I like my 
grenades.....

It's a good game for when it was made, though.  Granted, all the dead 
bodies looks like those of elves (why is everyone so small?) and so far 
it's nothing but up/down/up/down/up/down...please tell me these lifts 
are only in the first few levels?
