Monster Truck Madness 2 1998 Simulation
Racing games need to have realism, right? Racing games need to have depth, right? They need to have all kinds of neat features and add-ons for different vehicles, right? Cars need to go FAST, right? Umm, well, actually NO. In spite of popular belief, racing games DON'T always need to be too realistic, or have lots of depth, or have neat little features. Point and case: Microsoft's Monster Truck Madness II, the sequel to popular Monster Truck Madness. The game isn't all that realistic, the cars don't have many different features or additions... hell, the trucks don't even go that fast,...
Roketz 1996 Arcade action
Roketz is a 360 degree scrolling shoot 'em up. It features gravity environment and thrust-and-turn gameplay similar to the likes of Thrust, Virus, and SubSpace. Selectable game modes are the usual deathmatch combat mode and a racing mode where the players have to pass given checkpoints as fast as possible. ...
Maniac Mansion Enhanced 1988 Adventure
The Edison mansion has always been a creepy old house on the edge of town. There have been rumors of strange experiments going on and of odd creatures living amongst the Edison family. There is even a story that a meteorite once crashed near the home nearly 20 years ago. More immediately, a girl named Sandy has gone missing from the local highschool and her boyfriend Dave swears that he saw Dr. Fred abducting her. Dave knows that he cannot do it alone and will need help from two other students if he has any hope of infiltrating the mansion...
Deluxe Ski Jump 2000 Sports
Deluxe Ski Jump is a shareware ski jumping simulation with full 3D graphics and excellently modelled real world physics. The game contains 32 different hills, which vary in size from the tiny K50 in England to the huge K250 in Slovenia. DSJ also allows for up to 16 players (computer or human controlled) to compete for the World Cup trophy simultaneously, using the same computer. The actual jumping is performed using the mouse buttons (for jumping and landing) and by moving the mouse up and down (to angle your jumper in flight). This system works quite well, though it takes...
Super Star Trek 1982 Strategy
Super Star Trek is an adaptation of the Star Trek mainframe game from the 1970's and features similar gameplay. As captain of the Starship Enterprise, the player's mission is to destroy the Klingon battle force (usually consisting of around 17 battle cruisers). There is a time limit for this mission which needs to be completed by a specified stardate. The galaxy is broken up into 8 quadrants, with each quadrant containing 8 sectors. When the game begins a varying number of Klingons, friendly starbases, and stars are randomly placed. On each turn, the player needs to enter a command for...
Noiz2sa 2002 Arcade action
RRootage and Noiz2sa are two unique and addictive vertical shooters that breath fresh air into the crowded, clone-proned genre of arcade shooters. What sets both games apart from other shooters are two very innovative design choices: cool abstract graphics, and pitting you against only 'boss' enemy ships without hordes of other ships in the way. The games are essentially vertical one-screen shooter in which you have to destroy increasingly tougher bosses while avoiding a staggering amount of enemy fire that seems to come from all directions. Once you kill a boss, the enemy re-spawns with tougher armor and shoots even...
Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse 2005 Arcade action
Is it really that difficult to make a unique game these days? Just take the corniest possible idea for an action game and then turn it completely upside down. Don't offer the typical swaggering male protagonist who sets out to save the world. Instead, give the player a walking, rotting corpse to do the job, or to put it plainly, a zombie. Aspyr and Wideload Games seized the opportunity to realize such a unique idea, and so Stubbs the Zombie in "Rebel Without a Pulse" was born. Stubbs the Zombie is one of those games that doesn't bother to concern itself...
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis 2000 Arcade action
There is a time for porting a game to the PC and there is a time for simply leaving it to the console where it was originally released. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis is a stellar example of the latter. It's not that it's a bad game on the PC, it's just that it's better on the PlayStation. Nemesis is the third game in the Resident Evil series, but it doesn't really fit into the storyline. If anything, it is a side-story that occurs while the events of Resident Evil 2 are happening elsewhere. Anyway, here's the story: due to the deadly...
H2O 1996 Puzzle
H2O is a fun action/puzzle game that adds nice twists to the tried-and-true Tetris clones. As the name suggests, H2O is about water-- lots of it. Drops of water fall from the top of a scrolling playfield. You must direct these drops into a drainpipe at the bottom of the screen by throwing up blocks to stop the flow of water, building bridges to steer the water, or throwing bombs to blast through obstacles. Overall, this is an innovative, hardly known gem that combines the best elements of Tetris, Pipe Dreams, and even the cuteness of Lemmings into a surprisingly...
Transport Tycoon Deluxe 1995 Strategy
One of the most fun business strategy games ever made, Chris Sawyer's Transport Tycoon Deluxe is a great update of the earlier-- and also underrated-- Transport Tycoon game released in 1994. The Deluxe version adds multiplayer options, complete world editor, three new world environments (sub-arctic, sub-tropical, and toyland), newer vehicles and structures (e.g. maglev and helipads), customization options, and a stronger AI. TTD is inspired by Sid Meier's classic Railroad Tycoon, but designer Chris Sawyer expands the concept to include not only rail, but also sea, road and air. The result is a far more sophisticated (and IMHO fun) game. You...
