Vertical shooter set in the pacific theater of World War II. Each level start from a carrier and then you shoot down a small airforce and then land on a carrier again.
Side-scrolling platform shooter where you control your character with the keyboard and aim the weapons with the mouse. The art style of the game has a slight touch of Alien.
Top-down shooter that takes everything it can from the movie Aliens. Clean out each level of the space station and then take the lift down to the next one. You collect money that can be used to buy weapons or more ammo for all the aliens that keep spawning from the holes in the ground. Keys are needed for doors and some doors are one way so one need to be careful to not get stuck in a room with no keys . The only thing I really dislike about the game is that every levels end in a timed run to the lift. If you fail it is game over no matter how many re-spawns you had left.
Aliens need to die in top-down perspective this time. It works but it gets really tiresome to repeat the same actions. Go to x, defend x, walk to y, defend y and repeat until exit.
Sent to investigate a scientific outpost on a far off planet your shuttle crash and the only way out is to kill all the aliens in top-down perspective. Collect keys, money and weapons and kill everything that moves.
In this game there are three different campaign. One each for Colonial Marines, Predators and aliens. The alien is the most fun one and it feels good to crawl around in the roof and drop down on the defenceless humans as they scream in fear. To bad that the game is so short as it only contain the standard number of first person shooter levels split in three parts.
Nice but stupid AI on the marines really destroy the game. It's no fun to stalk the humans as a alien when they are to stupid to even notice that someone dies right in front of them. Then when you play as human you have to suffer with them repeating the same stupid line of dialogue the whole game. The three way story do not really work that well also, minor point really but when you play the whole games it would be nice for it to be good.
The first survival horror game in 3D. Play as Edward or Emily and explore the haunted mansion and try to find the way out. Like most of these early game one of the most scary parts is the static camera. If you can't see it the monsters can still eat you.
Game made by the American Army to show how great they really are. Good team play game if you can ignore the constant brain dead message of how great the Army is.
Horror game that takes place in 1899 and is set in the same universe as Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Explore your own house in London to find your children and stop the machine that is starting up somewhere deep below.
A child of the great Battle Royale craze of 2019. This game had a well timed hype campaign with big streamers on the payroll at release and it also was a decent game. Drop down in teams of three and fight to the end. Added some new features that was adopded by other BR style games. I did win once, no thanks to me, i was simply a passanger.
3D combat simulator with tanks and planes. Collect five parts of a neutron bomb and use it the destroy the enemys beam cannon. You search the map while at the same time you destroy the enemys generators to delay the completion of the beam cannon.
Origins is a step up from Syndicate and Unity. Enjoyed the characters more but the story is weak and diluted by the open world. New combats system, new controls, and i still press the wrong button 30 hours in. The ships missions was a waste and i could live without playing as Aya.
Run around and kill people by jumping from buildings and stab them in the neck. Gameplay is a 2D side scroller even if it is shown with 3D graphic. It works nice on the DS even if most thing are more or less automatic and it does not take to much player skill to do most thing in the game.
Fighting game where you use your sword to cut down the minions to a evil wizards and then the wizard himself to save the princess (sigh). Plays like a tournament where you and one opponent settle thing one on one. Also possible to play two players against each other.
A chess game where the pieces are animated figures that show a small fight when you defeat of them. Make chess slightly more fun until you remember that it's still chess.
Expansion to battlefield 2 were you take the role of some special forces around the world. Some new maps and each class now also have a new ability like grappling hook for the assault class. Still battlefield 2 so not really that much different.
A first-person real-time strategy set in an alternative history universe where the all powerful resource is not spice but scraps of bio-metal. The USA and Soviet fight it out on different planets in the solar system and you pick one of them to fight for. Played from first-person shooter perspective so you can run around, drive around, order your forces around and be overrun by the enemy.
First-person shooter where you play Caleb, a cult member that was killed by the evil god he worshiped and now returns from the grave for revenge. Lots of blood, gore and references to horror films.
This game takes place in present times and our Dhampir friend once more slash, shoot and feed our way past hordes of meatbags. The game now takes place in a city and Rayne can now swing around and climb poles so there is some good acrobatic exercise in this game. She are now hunting down and killing her fathers evil offspring, her siblings. They have formed the Cult of Kagan and have created The Shroud , a doomsday device that will make the suns rays harmless to vampires.
Platform game that mix it up a lot with time. The basic function is that you can rewind time whenever you wish, even all the way to the start of the level. As the game progress then there are items that don't rewind with you or act otherwise different when you rewind and it all turns into advanced puzzles to solve.
Puzzle game where you control two characters at the same time. Each one has it's own thumbstick and use button. Really simple puzzles where you open doors, carry things or climb around. Gameplay gets thin fast but works as the game is not that long, less then 3 hours for me and the world is cool enough to keep playing for that time. The land of the dead giants was a great level.
First-person shooter that puts you in the boots of a infantry soldiers in World War II. Uncommon for many other games of the same time you played each mission with the help of your computer controlled allies. Most missions are linear and simple so most of the time they act as cannon fodder and you need to complete most of the mission objectives on your own. There are three campaigns, the American, British and the Soviet one and you play a different soldier in each one.
The seventeenth version of the Call Of Duty theme park experience. Keep your guns inside the marked trail at all time and follow the orders the guide bark at you. Best way to play this game is to turn off the brain and turn the graphical settings to max. It's a real enjoy the moment with nothing that have a lasting impression. I got the most evil ending possible, sorry about that Europa.
World War II again in Call of Duty but a bit more open-ended this time with more ways to do each missions. The major important change is the support for co-op multiplayer with up to four players in campaign and that alone makes the game a whole lot more epic.
Control your carrier and use it to take over islands so you get enough power to find and destroy the other carrier. The movie is not done by me (none of the movies i link to are) but it provides a good overview of the game.
This fighting game is made up of two parts and in the first you train you characters skills for the tournament in the second part of the game. Training is done by many exercises such as balancing on trees and dodging someone attacking you with a stick. The better you do the more strength and stamina you will have in the tournament. Fighting in the tournament is similar to many other fighting games were you kick your way to the next level. Training is not friendly for your joystick so you needs a whole box of tac-2?s to play games like this.
Puzzle solving on a time limit is not my favorite thing but this game is still a bit ;) fun. Solve the puzzles and collect all the chips in each level to move on to the next.
Another platformer with the goal to save your girl, this time as the caveman Chuck. Belly punch stange creatures and throw rocks at them. The band playing in the main menu is more fun then playing the game.
Multi player only game with two teams, the terrorists and the counter-terrorists. At the start of each round all members of a team spawn in their buy zone were they can use the money they have to buy weapons. You gain money by killing the enemy and completing the goals of your team.
You play a super soldier sent to stop a korean invasion that turn out to be a alien invasion. Nice island to walk around in and like crysis the game is the most fun while you don't have to fight the stupid alien/zombie/mutants/whatever.
Play the events of the first Crysis game from the perspective of another soldier on the other side of the island. Really more of a expansion with more of the same.
Action game where you take the role of of the Dark Messiah, a half human, half demon with the power to save to world or destroy it. Some simple role playing elements in it also were you can pick skills along three paths, combat, stealth and magic. Many times you can use things in to world to kill the enemy like pulling down barrels onto them or kicking them into a spiked wall. Most of the time it only look stupid and staged with the enemy's standing below huge unstable structure like idiots and waiting for them to fall if a gust of wind removes the small rope that keeps it all up.
Tactical first-person shooter that uses voxel based rendering that makes it look a bit different from other games. It provided long view distance of the world compared to many games of the time so sniper rifles was fun in this game.
The NovaLogic marketing department must have run out of good titles when this game was about to be released. They also run out of content so the game is remake of Delta Force 1 with upgraded graphics.
Arcade action game were you hack your way down a dungeon to kill Diablo. You can choose to play one of the three classes of warrior, rogue and sorcerer. All levels in the game are random generated so it s different each time you play.
This game continues the story from the first game and Diablo escapade the town of Tristram and are now free in the world. Your character follows him in a quest to stop and kill him. The game takes place in four acts and for each act there is a cut scene movie that moves the story forward. This time there are five available classes to pick from: Amazon, Barbarian, Necromancer, Paladin and Sorceress. Each class have their own set of skills they can use, around 30 skills/class and you gain on skill point each level. The more skill points you put in a skill the better it gets.
Expansion pack to Diablo 2. This adds a new act were you follow and kill Diablo s evil brother Baal. It also adds two new classes to play with, Druid and Assassin and many other good things.
The first game with jumpman, or Mario as he was known later on. This game also lay the foundation for the central storyline of games of the eightes and Nintendo in general. Save the Girl, Save the World.
First-person team-oriented game in the same world as Quake 4. Two teams in the form of the Humans and the Strogg battle each other on a number of maps and you need to complete mission objectives on each map for your side to win. You get to choose what class your character is and that modify the weapons and abilitys you have.
Paradise island shooter where you try to rescue your friends, kill a crazy person and do drugs. All ancient temples is also build in the style of Indiana Jones. They collapse when you pick up the artifact. Gameplay gets a bit on repeat and with the crashes i gave up in the end.
Shoot people in Montana and free them from a crazy cult. To solve the open world issue the the player gets captured to be forced into cutscenes. I lost count but it most be close to captured twenty times in the end. Don't think i can be lured into a cult as i got bored so fast by the endless pointless ramblings of the villans. Did a nope and stop playing in the end as i could not take it anymore.
A walking simulator where you mostly swim and sail among the ruins of a lost civilization. Not much happens beside the sightseeing and a some really really simple puzzles.
Two more campaigns for Doom 2, The Plutonia Experiment and TNT: Evilution with 32 levels each. Really difficult and you have to walk around looking for each and every spare bullet you can find.
Now we get to play as Kait Diaz. It is an improvement from the vegetable we suffered with in the last game. There is a robotic companion i did not bother with and some open world areas that was nice to look at. I managed to look at the cut scenes without breaking the skip button.
Big bald soldiers with big guns that fight against evil monsters and a really stupid story. Nice and fun as long as you play co-op and remember to press skip as soon as a cut-scene is about to start. One thing that stand out is the focus on cover in the game and all battles is based around moving from cover to cover while shooting the bad people. Works nice.
More stupid story, more big guns, more aliens that need to die, less hair and more one liners. Do not think... press fire. Still cover based battles and it still works well even if it looks strange that the whole world if filled with waist high concrete blocks. Co-op still great.
Last part of the Gears of War series and I think they have a real writer now but it's to late as I do not care. Each cutscene is painful as always. Mechs was fun to use.
Set 25 years after the last game the new cast has more hair but is as fun as a box of wet cabbage. Hard to kill things in a successful franchise so old enemies and cast return.
Beat-'em-up with support for two players. Select to play as a barbarian, dwarf or amazon and fight your way to final foe, Death-Adder. I like that you can knock of riding enemies and steal their steed. Grand Theft Dragon.
Drive around and do the crime without the time in Liberty City. You take to role of Claude that was set-up by his past partners his crime and after a lucky escape from the law it is time to get the cash back, the guns in the trunk and to start watch the body count go up.
Be a cool gangsta, fight for respect, live for the bling bling and most importantly die for the hood. Game world is huge and it s made up of three towns, Los Santos, San Fierro and Las Venturas. The story is that you return to the town for a funeral after being away for to long and you find your hood have lost all respect and your brothers are the joke of the town. The only real thing to to is to get it back and you battle it out against to other gangs. Great fun and cool characters in the game but your brothers are stupid bastards and you often feel like you would shoot them in the head to make them shut up. Artificial Intelligence is also a bit bad when you move around town with you gang
In this game you fly a small transport ship inside caves and transport cargo boxes between different airports. You can only take a limited number of boxes and they have different sizes so you need to plan ahead a little so you fly as few runs as possible. There are also unfriendly ships that you need to fight and force fields that try to pull your ship into the cave walls.
In Half-life you play Gordon Freeman, a new employ at the Black Mesa research facility. Like always the experiment goes wrong and portal is open to another world and monsters attack. Our hero picks up some guns and the game turn into a very nice first person shooter. Overall a great game but with some sections a bit to long. The end is also long and boring.
First chapter in the episodic releases of the follow-up to Half-Life 2 where you as Gordon Freeman and your sidekick Alyx try to escape the City 17 before the Citadel reactor explodes.
Second episode from Half-Life 2 and this time you are outside the city trying to get to a resistance base called White Forest. You get a car in this episode and spends a lot more time in open terrain driving around.
Second part in the halo series and this time your time is split between playing two characters with to simultaneous story lines. The first one follows Master chief and the second one follows the Arbiter who is the alien who failed to defend the Halo against the Master chief and friends in the first game. The campaign can be played with two players in split screen and the game also had a nice double-wield support where you could mix weapons.
Final game in the Master chief halo series for now. The Arbiter and friends has joined up with humanity to fight The Covenant and you once again take to role of Master Chief to save the day. Played this one in co-op to and don't really remember much from the story other than the fact that each new area you enter is so filled with epic music and dramatic cut-scenes that you almost puke. In co-op one player takes the role of the Chief, the second one the Arbiter and the two last players will play as aliens of the same race as the Arbiter and it all work out great with all the cut-scenes fixed for it to.
First-person fantasy shooter with three episodes that you can play in any order. Each level is simply about finding the exit and to kill anything that stands in the way and your goal in the end is to destroy one of the serpent riders namned D'Sparil.
Aliens invade and turn humans into drugs for aliens to get high on. Run around with living alien guns that talk and shoot the evil drug syndicate. The humor in the game from to gun is hit-and-miss. Sometimes fun, sometimes not but they were not as annoying as i thought they world.
Our bald hero has retired from the hard and stressful life as an assassin and are now spends his days working as a gardener at a church. All is well until the priest is kidnapped. 47 contacts his old employer to find the priest and to pay for the hunt he also takes some missions. The gameplay works in large part like the last game, controls are better now and it is more easy to choose the violent path. It is also possible to collect weapons in the missions so you can use the following missions. All your weapons are kept in a small house in your base and you can go there between mission to try them out.
47 have been wounded and are lying on the floor dying and looks as his life flash by before him. It takes the form of some of the mission he has done in his life and you get the chance to play them. It s is mix of different mission both new ones and some modified ones from the original hitman game. Some of the remade missions are fun but often it only feels boring the play the same missions as you did in the first game. Not really that different from Hitman 2 but more of a expansion pack with new (and old) missions.
The semi open world of Philadelphia is nice and you take over zones far cry style. The only thing that really annoyed me was the spawning and despawning of enemies. Stealth style is a bit hard when they sometime vanish into thin air or pop in from nothing. Story was bland and character was like dead wieght i did not care about.
Something that i did like was the mission requirement to shoot the surgeons that was working in the torture facility.
Shoot- em-up seen from above with a world that scrolls as you move along and kill everything. Can be played with two players. Also possible to drive tanks
A clone of the classic Space Invaders that was released in 1978. Really hard to find this video. Google get a bit confused when you try to find a game with the name Invaders 1978 that was released in 1996.
Wuxia style action role-playing game in a setting inspired by ancient China. The gameplay is a lot like Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic but the thing that sinks this game for me is the simplistic battle system. In a setting where ancient masters are everywhere and people fight each other to say hello there need to be more to it then skills named after animals.
Ride around on your flying ostrich and defeat the enemy knights riding buzzards. I think the developers had a slight lack of knowledge of how jousting works or the details on the size of birds.
The playstation exclusive shooter that stand against xbox Halo series. No idea what killzone story is about. I guess the guys with glowing red eyes are like evil so thats why we shoot them. Game is not that good enough to motivate me to bother finding out why.
Nice mood and very good speech. The story is not that good and all puzzles have only one way to solve them. The hero you play is so good that you sometimes wish that you can reach into the screen and kill him.
Guide the not so bright lemmings to the exit. They drop out in the level one by one and then you need to assign task to some of them so they majority of them reach the exit. For example tell one of them to dig a path into a wall, a stair up or to stand and block the others so they don't walk over a cliff edge. You often have a limit on how many of each you can use, say max 9 diggers on a level so you need to plan ahead to keep as many of them safe. If you fail you can always push to bomb key that turn all lemmings into walking bombs that explodes in cute pixel clouds
The game takes place in the 30 s and you play as a poor taxi driver that get pull in to the workings of the mob and you start as a driver and work your way up in the crime world as the years go by. Great story and and game world and when you are done playing you will walk around with that 30 s music in your head for weeks. Tommy is the name of the character you play in the game and that if something is a hint about his destiny as a mob member.
Swim a open world, or open sea and eat things. A bit like a RPG, grind up your shark to eat bigger fish. Nice world below water but the shark life gets old a bit to fast. For a bit of extra fun learn to sing Under the sea while you play.
Matrix style until you almost throw up. Fun story that are told in a cool cartoon graphical style. You have bullet time in the game and when you use it you slow the game world down but you can still aim your guns as you wish and that way take out a lot of enemies more easy. There is a limit on how much bullet time you can have and you get more by killing enemies so it is wise to save it for the real huge encounters.
More third-person bullet time and there is also cover system now. Not that it adds much to the game as I think Max Payne is a character that should be in the air more then behind cover. I also miss the comic panels from the past games, now there is cut scenes that interrupt the game all the time to deliver more cynical dialogue. Really gets tiresome fast.
Heavy action in the Battle Tech universe. Walk around with battlemechs with big guns and complete the missions in two diffrent campaings, one for the Wolf Clan and one for the Jade Falcon Clan. There are 15 different battlemechs and you can customize them all with your own weapons of choice.
Time to storm Omaha Beach and die. Alot. Nice mix of action and stealth mission where stolen id pappers is used to move around. Crazy difficulty on some levels and every health and ammo box is required.
Action game in which the player controls Samus Aran, a bounty hunter that attack the space pirates base to destroy the Mother Brain that control the base. You need to explore the world and get power ups that makes it possible to access other areas of the map, like the morph ball to roll around or high jump boots to reach higher.
Gather eight Octoliths to find the way to the Ultimate Power. Like all Metroid games you do that by exploring, getting powerups and fighting boss battles but this game also have other bounty hunters that fight you and try to steal the octoliths you have found. The major flaw in this game is the boss battles that are all similar and the control system that makes it painfull in the hands to play a bossfight without taking a pause from playing. The game took 7.48 hours to complete and i landed on the really small number of 62% complete.
Side scrolling shoot'em up with levels and in each level a end boos that need to die. You can shop for new weapons as you progress in the game and for currency you use keys that you take from the people you kill. Possible to play the game with two players and as always it's more fun that way :)
Drive around in Chicago and win street races. All the pedestrians in the city are professional athlete and are impossible to run down. I wonder if the developers of this game played Carmageddon and felt the pedestrians needed a game where they would be safe.
You control a colony on the moon and your goal is to explore the solar system and collect enough resources to re inhabit earth. Not that hard until you find out there is another colony that think that they are the ones that should inherit earth.
Third person role-playing game based on the Dungeons & Dragons and Forgotten Realms rules. In this game you take the role as one of those with the mission to save the town of Neverwinter from a evil plague. It starts simple with you collecting the parts needed for a cure and then you need to run around outside the town for a while hunting down those that created the plague. Then it all ends inside the town again in a epic battle. The game can also be played in co-op and that is the most fun way to play it.
Strategy game about the American civil war with a comical cartoon style. You move around you troops in a strategic view and then in tactical view you command a single battle and fight it out with you infantry, cannons and calvary.
War game were you play different soldiers in the cold war. You get the chance to be both in the infantry, drive tanks and fly planes and helicopters. No part of the game is perfect and the simulation of the different vehicles is a bit simple bit all together it forms a great environment were you feel like a little piece in a much larger battle. Multi player is also great and it s very cool to play co-op missions.
Operation Flashpoint under the new flag of codemasters and it's nice and works in co-op but it seems like the only concept for mission design is killing teams of anti tank soldiers. Not real chance to drive or fly anything in this game so it does not really feel like a true operation flashpoint game.
Here you play the Soviet side in the Operation flashpoint campaign. This time you play only one soldier but you still get to chance to do a little of everything.
Third campaign to Operation Flashpoint and this time take the role of ex special forces vet Victor that have retired to the island of Nogova for easy and peaceful life. It all ends when the Soviet invades and you join the resistance on the island to fight back.
Side scrolling action where you search a oil rig for a bomb to keep it from blowing up while at the same time getting shot at by people that like to see it blow up.
Before Battlefield there was pinball games and this is the first one of three that Digital Illusions did for the Amiga. Physics works fine and the table looks nice. The most fun table was the nightmare one.
Second pinball game from Digital Illusions on the Amiga and i think this is the best of the three. The best table was Stones and Bones. Best graphic in this to as i think they added to much clutter in the next game.
Build a pipe for fluid as long as possible from a parts that you get. When the fluid starts to flow you need it to not leak for a certain amount of pipe segments to get to the next level. Fun but takes a number of tries to get how to play.
MMO Shooter with a a bit over thousand players in a single battle. Three factions fight in a large open world to to capture territories on foot or in land/air vehicles.
Be a police, follow the rules, follow police procedure, drive legal and do not shoot everyone you meet. This game is not easy when you are always one letter away from going postal in a every game.
Fun game were you can be a good guy if you want to. But there is hard to wait in line to pay for your milk when you have a gun. I blame it all on the milk, if there was no milk we would have no problems with the guns .
Evil aliens try to destroy our world and you have to stop them. Nice use of portals and gravity in this game. You can also use your spirit form to run around and it is used to solve some puzzles.
Take the role of a revolutionary mine worker on Mars fighting against the evil doers. The fun part of this game is for sure the possibility to shoot apart most things in the game like walls, floors and so on. Takes some time to get used to that you can shoot yourself down to the next floor :).
Based on the Tom Clancy book with the same name. Four time periods from 1984 to 1996 with different submarines and weapons available. All put you in the role of a submarine in the Norwegian Sea fighting World War III. Try to make NATO win or end up as a prisoner to USSR.
Travel to Africa, meet the locals, see them turn into monsters and try to eat your brain. Game is played with you taking the role as Chris Redfield from the past games and with a new partner Sheva. Works well I guess besides that she always stand in front of you when you plan the shoot and she often refuse to shoot at all when someone is about to eat a bit of Chris head. Many cutscenes, epic bad writing and tiresome boss fights where you shoot the glowing spots.
Take the role as B.J. Blazkowicz in this first person shooter that takes place in WWII. You are at Castle Wolfenstein exploring the SS Paranormal Division and the way to do it is by killing anyone within the distance of a sniper rifle. Like far cry this game starts out good but gets a bit boring when facing the evil zombies and other hell spawns.
Was a launch game for XBOX One so with Crytek skill and Micrrosofts ocean of money this game still look nice after 10 years. Arena-like combat with execution moves to unlock. All turns out a bit same in the end and there is not much variation to the gameplay. The writers bring dishonor to Rome and me at times with bad writing.
First-person shooter set in Chernobyl exclusion zone in a fictional future. Strange anomalies and artifacts show up in the area and you go into the zone to find valuable artifacts to sell and also to find Strelok, someone that your PDA tells you to kill. Real nice atmosphere in this game and also epic bugs that destroy the game. Like that the game keeps running and kills you when looking at cutscenes or that the enemy that just killed you know where you are even when you have loaded a game where you did not even meet him yet.
First-person shooter tower defense game where you defend blue spheres against hordes of attacking monsters. Build your towers until the next wave and then run around and shoot the monsters in the face or in the weak-spot. Also a progression system where one gets better weapons, towers and perks with increased rank. Four characters to select from and like always i picked the one with the sniper rifle.
This is a first person shooter were you get the chance to both run around on foot and also pilot MCAs (Mobile Combat Armors). The levels were you use the MCA is easy and you don t have to worry much about any of the enemies. The other levels when you are out of your MCA and is more hard as the weapon in the game is a bit on the overkill side and enemy artificial intelligence is not that good. Sometimes you can open a door and die before you even have to time to see what killed you. There is a also story somewere in there but it s mostly confusing and not very well explained so the best bet is to ignore it
Set in the distant future of 1999 this where contenders fight to the death on TV for prizes such as toasters and VCRs. Gameplay works well but i'm not a huge fan of these type of arena games.
In this game you play an American soldier working to prevent the Russians troops from getting hold of the German nuclear weapons research at the end of world war II. You sneak around in Berlin in German uniform and with the help of the resistance try to find good positions to snipe the enemy from and collect the important papers you are looking for. Resistance?, don't think, shoot, the story is stupid so lets not spend any more time on it. The sniping part is good and things as gravity and wind makes it a bit harder then simple look and shoot. It takes a while to turn around with the wiimote and that makes you die a lot when you try to be cool and fight indoor but then you are not really not much of a sniper anyway. You also need to find a good place to shoot from and time your fire so as few enemies as possible notice you when you make the kill. Some tanks are also in the way but they can be removed by putting explosives at them and shooting at the explosives. AI in the game is fine but sometimes they are a bit to good at finding out were you shoot from.
On the PC you can also play multi player with all the players sneaking around until someone makes a small mistake and get shoot in the head. A little fun but all is simple death match like we have seen a thousands times before.
Remake of Sniper Elite and not much is new. They have a X-Ray kill cam that ups the 'parent panic factor' a bit but it's does not add anything else to the game really. Support for two player co-op but the levels are two linear and simple to make it that fun.
One of the early games set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Take the role of space marines to fight orcs and genestealers in turn based combat. Solid gameplay and cool isometric action view.
Graphic adventure where you take the role of Roger Wilco, janitor by profession, and try to save the galaxy. Interaction done by typing commands so always some guesswork to get something done.
Sci-fi dungeon crawler where the dungeon is the colony ship Armstrong. It has been attacked by aliens and all the robots have gone crazy so it's more or less all the things that always happens in space. Linear game that give you one of these stupid choices close to the end of the game to pretend that is not linear at all.
Prequel to Wolfenstien 3D where the player try to recover the Spear of Destiny from the nazis by killing more or less all of them. Not much new in this one really.
As a manager of the Brutal Deluxe speedball team you hire new players, upgrade the ones you have and play the matches. Punch them if they don't have the ball and punch them more if they have it.
After my last boring assignment on Enterprise i have now moved to Voyager and i must say that things are still no good. Im running around on all strange planets and shooting at everything, this is not the brainless work i signed up for. And all of the ship is almost of limits to me so the only thing to do is to talk to my stupid team mates that fail to do their duty on each mission. Starfleet sux I tell you, I will take a shuttle back to earth and flee this action madness.
End Log
The story continues in this second game about Kyle Katarn as he learns about his father has been killed by a Dark Jedi to learn the secret of something called The Valley of the Jedi and Kyle goes on to find it and track down his father's killers. While doing that he learns about the force powers he never know he had and you get to use light and dark powers and also a lightsaber. There are a light and a dark side ending to the game depending on how you play and this two side path would later show up in all the following Jedi Knight games.
After cutting his link to the Force in after the events in Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the sith Kyle once again work as a mercenary with Jan Ors for the New Republic. All things go well until a stupid Dark Jedi kill's Jan and Kyle run off to the Valley of the Jedi to regain his lost power so he can hunt down the dark jedi.
Final game in the Jedi Knight series for and now you play the character of Jaden Korr, a student at the Jedi Academy run by Kyle Katarn from the previous games. This time you take missions assigned to you by Katarn and Luke Skywalker and this time you have the option to chose what missions to do and in what order.
First of a series of First-person shooter games in the world of star wars. In this first one you play as a mercenary namned Kyle Katarn that work for the Rebel Alliance and your learn about and try to stop the Empire's development of a new form of super soldier, the Dark Trooper.
Expansion fo Jedi Knight - Dark Forces II that takes place some year after that game. In this on you get to play as both Kyle and his apprentice Mara Jade.
This game takes place some years after the first and some of characters return. Your character is a exile from the Jedi order that was cast out for your actions in the Mandalorian wars. You were cut of from the force so you were not part of the Jedi civil war that followed the Mandalorian war and now years later your force connection returns. Hunted by the Sith you travel the galaxy in search for the jedi masters to get some answers from them why the throw you out from the Jedi order as you find out that the things you did in the Mandalorian war was not the reason. Our hero HK-47 returns and once again gives great advise on how to handle the meatbags you meet. This game could be as great as the first one but to many things in it don t work out. The story is not as good as in the first game and many parts of it the story/game is incomplete or buggy.
This time you got to work for the Empire. Besides killing rebel scum you also hunt pirates, shoot traitor?s and maintain the order in the Empire. With enough hard work you go from space vermin to working for Emperor Palpatine himself. In the game you get to fly Tie fighter and many TIE variants.
In this game you fly for the rebellion against the evil empire. Not only the X-Wing but you also fly the A-Wing, B-Wing and Y-Wing. Mission is a mix of dogfights and attacks on capital ships. One important part of the game is to keep track of the energy usage as you can transfer energy between the weapons, shields and engine. You always need to make sure you have the energy where you need it. The game is very difficult so you really had to put in the time to get anywhere.
Two add-ons where made called Imperial Pursuit and B-Wing, the later lets you fly the new B-Wing spaceship
Fly through space, down to and into planets. The tunnels of the planets was the hard part where i always smacked into a wall. All travel is done on a quest to collect parts to build a a bomb to destroy the enemy.
Zombie survival game that was nice and i did manage to play it for a couple of hours. Then i glitched into a door and got ripped into parts by zombies. The game then autosaves as it has some stupid 'live with consequences' system. So the character i controlled is dead and i have to keep playing with the other ones. The motivation to play the game hit zero. If you can live with the consequences of the lack of quality assurance at Undead labs this game might be for you. I on the other hand will not accept it. The score is how i felt about the game before the code from the monkey department crashed my flow.
Try to survive on a damaged oil drilling platform in the 1970s when monsters attack. Not that hard to survive really as it's no combat , easy puzzles and some stealth. Think 70s oil rig theme park with quick time events to avoid dying. Environments looks real nice, monsters are meh.
First person shooter action game with levels connected into a large world. Do quest and chat with the characters before you put a arrow into them. All the scientist in the evil organization try to make excuses but i leave no one alive. The level design feels a bit bad at times. It looks nice but the puzzles have a lack of logic to it.
Action style flight simulator where you command a group of mercenery fighter pilots known as the 'Wildcats'. Based in Turkey you take missions in interactive cutscenes and then use your F-16's to blow things up or shoot things down. Between missions you get to chat with your team and later on you also get's to fly the F-22.
Elfs and Dwarfs is on the list of things to murder in this game. It have a bit to much reuse of levels and the skills are a bit meh. Characters and story is nice.
Science fiction strategy game where you face take control of planets, build of your forces and then assault the alien homeworld. Four alien spieces to challange.
Expansion pack for Swat4 where you take the Stetchkov crime family. Some more weapons and a fun AI upgrade where people that have surrendered but not you have not handcuffed can have a change of hearth can jump up and run away and look for weapons to use on you again.
This game takes place some years after the first game and the Eurocorp syndicate now own the world and uses military and mind control to keep people happy. Then the mind control system starts to fail and people fight back and try to destroy your empire. Time to bring out the miniguns and your agents to bring them back in order again . Resarch is still important and your agents need to pick up weapons they find on the missions and bring then back so you can study them and build new ones. The new weapons makes it possible to blow up every building in a mission and you can use the explosives to rob banks in missions to get you even more cash .
Shoot waves of enemies that pop up on the screen and try to not shoot civilians. You get to select two weapons for each level and they are assigned to left and right mouse buttons. Then you click fire... a lot
Team based first person shooter where cartoon styled red and blue team shoot it out. Nine player classes to pick from and wherever you pick there is always a spy with a knife with your name on it waiting in the shadows.
Space horror where they main character climb in vents, squeeze between walls and get knocked out. All of them so often it borders on comedy. It looks good but everything in it is paint by numbers dull.
Great intro and nice art style. Guybrush tries to put a ring on it and turn his love Elaine into a gold statue. She is stolen and its time to save her and find the Big Whoop treasure.
Visit the island of Vvardenfell and spend hours killing Cliff Racer's. To be honest you get to do other things to such as fulfilling a prophecy and killing a god. All those things are fun but jumping up to hit and kill cliff racers is the thing that will be part of my muscle memory forever. I do not like the dialogue or the quests. Talking to someone turned into a guess to right word and most quest was spent being lost for long periods of time. It's nice to be able to explore a open world but i do prefer more guidance when i have quests. It gets tiresome to run around in a city to find a single person or over the landscape to find the correct mine. The rule system in the game is also a bit broken and there are bugs that put a dent in the enjoyment of the game. Killing cliff racers and falling through the floor will be my memory from this game. That and the theme song, the theme song is Epic.
Nice world to explore but it turns repetitive fast. The game system is broken and stupid and all characters that you try to work with will jump in front of you when you fight and then attack you.
Stuck in a timeloop on a hidden Roman city you try to find a way out. Mostly walking around and talking to people with some light combat in a few areas. The end is not that great.
In each level in this game you are given some strange objects to assemble a Rube Goldberg-type machine to solve a simple puzzle. Think outside the box by throwing cats, balloons, monkeys and anything at the problem.
Action-adventure game where you play as a private investigator that have nightmares about squid monsters. Like any Cthulhu Mythos investigator before him he travel to the source of the visions, the city of Oakmont. It's an open-world setting flooded by the sea and you search for clues, kill monsters and talk to the fishy looking people.
Explore an alien planet and enjoy the setting but ignore the weak survival system. Lack of things to discover when exploring new areas makes it all a bit of a disappointment.
I started playing it as I had nothing better to play and it turned out to be one of the best games I played for along time . It catches the theme nicely and you get do drive around in a jeep and fly a hover craft.
Shooter where you can manipulate time. You can slowdown, pause and rewind time. Use it to shoot people better and to perform some basic puzzles. Sometimes i got stuck and checked a guide and remember that there was a time gimmick to solve the things with. Bit of a weak execution when the player forget about the existence if the games unique feature.
Ghost recon style once again but unlike the first one where you where mostly in the wild you now run around inside a city instead. Mexico city and the city is really nice done and to offset that they choose to make some really bad AI. Many mission ends with you having to shoot one of your own soldiers as he is stuck inside something. Ohh... and the when the server player die the whole mission fails thing must be one of the most stupid things in any coop game... ever.
This is a open-world action game that someone stamped Ghost Recon on by mistake. Standard Ubisoft clear out regions gameplay where you hack computers, tag supplies and defend radio transmitters. Your invisible squadmates follow you around and point out targets like it's a escort mission with you as the VIP. Can be fun drive around and shoot up some places but it does not feel like ghost recon.
First in the series of games about the Rainbow Six counter-terrorist unit All of them tactical shooters that focus on stealth and teamwork an all of them great fun to play cooperative multiplayer in. Before each mission you get a briefing where you can choose the operatives to use. Next is the planning phase where you can set-up paths and orders for the teams and finally you execute the mission and hope for the best. If all goes well a mission does not take to long but as the most common question in any Rainbow Six LAN event is 'did anyone see who killed us' a mission often takes a lot of practice.
For the story it is safe to ignore it, it's the same evil plot like in any other Tom Clancy book but without the 500 pages to get to the point.
The Rainbow six team gies to Las Vegas in this game to battle international terrorist's. This game moves the Rainbow six series away from the world of Tactical shooters and more into any other first-person shooter. Changes include regenerating helth, no planning phase and lots more people to kill.
Take the role of Sam Fisher, a NSA secret agent in this sneak-em-up game. Like in the game Thief you have a light meter that show how visible you are and a set of tools the help you stay hidden. For example night vision and a silenced assault rifle. The story is about another bomb, another mad man and another Tom Clancy style USA save the world story so nothing really new. The bad part about the game is that it is very simple and linear so unlike thief there is no need to explore or to find new and fun way to do things. Walk the line and kill them when they sleep.
Second part in the splinter cell series and this time Sam is trying to stop some mad man from blowing up another bomb. Mad people and bombs don t mix that well
Nice polygon mesh (and feminist enemy num one) that watched to many replays of Indy when she grow up. I always play it safe when I play with Lara and save a lot as I get this strange urge to let her jump from all high places I can find.
Not bad but it's a bit too much a step away from the old games. They had more exploration and puzzles, and this new game is shooter in a Lara suit. The sliding down slopes and the running when things fall apart section got boring fast. Not much in way of tombs to speak of.
More adventures with Lara. Not that bad but still no logic anywhere to be found. If I found a UZI clip in the tomb that been closed for 3000 years I would start to question the history of the world
Everyone think that Lara is dead and her friends sit around the fire in her house and talk about her and you get to chance to play the missions that they talk about. Not that diffrent from the Last Revelation really
Our grave robber plunders another tomb and releases the god Set so he is free to destroy the world, not one of her best days. The game is then all about her trying to stop the evil god and her old mentor Von Croy who also have joined the dark side. We also get the chance to drive a jeep and a motorcycle.
Great movement controls and good weapons. I also liked the hub area where you use the keys you collect to unlock more jungle-based levels. Lot of jumping sometimes but the good control make it less painful.
First game in what was to become to Ultima series and it's hard to see the future greatness. Sword, flying cars and space combat all in one game. Unless you try to play all Ultima games i would not recommend it.
This was not a worthy ending for the Ultima series. There is only one good thing in the game and it s the graphic engine. I like to see Britannia in full 3d and it s nice walk around in it.
The worst part of the game is the fact that is ignores more or less all the events in the other ten games that have been before it in the ultima series. I m sure that they would like it to be possible for new players to enjoy the game but it is stupid to do it at the expanse of the people who had followed the ultima series in the past. The story of the game is extremly stupid and even a new player would see that things don t fit at all in this game. There are simply to many things wrong to write down here, look at Hackis ultima page ( http://members.inode.at/357352/english/nitpicks_u9.htm ) for a more complete list of why you feel something is missing when playing this game.
In the game the avatar arrives from the world of Pagan to find that the Guardian have more or less total control of Britannia. The king don t even know that huge columns of chaos is raised in the air around in his land and your old friends from the other games only sit around at home and does nothing so its up to you to stroll around, collect magic items and do a ritual eight times to save the world.
The expansion to Serpent Isle that add a new quest to the game. It gives you the chance to get some powerful magical item to use in the main quests of serpent isle.
This is a small expansion pack to The Black Gate. It adds a new quests in the game were the Avatar must pass some tests to be given the Black Sword, a very powerful weapon.
This is the eighth part in the role-playing game series Ultima. After the events in U7:Serpent Isle the Guardian banishes the Avatar to the world of Pagan and the Avatar needs to escape from it and find a way back to Britannia. The arcade style control system were you have to jump around on moving platform is sometimes so frustrating you want to jump on the game CD (and burn it to another CD so you can jump on it again).
Search for lost treasure in the role of Nathan Drake and kill the other people that are also trying to find it. Nice environment to explore, cover based fighting and fun characters makes this game worth playing.
To much Gears of War graphical style in this for my taste and they also added a horrible single player story. Warfare is the new name of the Onslaught from Unreal Tournament 2004. Now most game modes have a option to play with vehicles.
Sim city in space where you get to administer a new colony on some distant planet. Make the citizens happy and keep an eye on the hostile alien race that share the planet with you.
Action RPG where you explore, level your character and kill monsters. Unlike many other games in the same genre you play a specific character, Victor Vran, a monster hunter. There are variants of weapons and each give unique abilities. You can also jump around and dodge so it takes a bit of vertical thinking to find all the secret areas.
Real-time strategy game in the Warhammer world. Take the role as commander Morgan and order your army around on the battlefield and slay the evil orcs and undead. Fun talk between the battles was also :).
Turn based strategy where your goal is to take over the 80 cities on the realm of Illuria. Each city give you gold that you use to create armies to attack the other seven warlords.
Adventure space flight simulator where that take place in the same universe as the Wing Commander series. Take the role as a privateer and fly around in the Gemini sector and choose if you wish to act as a mechant, a mercenary or a pirate. There is a plot to follow about a ancient artifact but it's fun to just fly around and take missions.
Action game where you pilot a?plane in the Pacific during the WWII. You start of from your aircraft carrier and then attack islands where the goal is to destroy everything that the enemy have there.
Horizontally-scrolling platform game where you are a wizard that in the form of a green ball bounce around collecting colours. Well, you really are collecting power ups so you can summon your cat in the form of a smaller green ball to collect the colours. Fun game :).
One of the first-person shooters and also the basic template for all future ID Software games :). You take the role of a American soldier on a mission to win WWII on his own by running around looking for keys, killing people and collecting and shooting people and collecting treasure.
Not sure why I rate this one so much lower than the The New Order or The Old Blood. I really disliked the story and most of the characters in the new one. The cat was the best even if every other character ignored the obvious foreshadowing. Submarine base was cool to but submarines are always fun.
Massively multiplayer online role-playing game in the Warcraft world where you can play on the Alliance or the Horde side. Each side has four races you can choose to be and there is a total of nine classes to pick from. You get to do quest on your own and with other players as you explore the two continents of the world. Great game and real easy to get into ( harder to get out of :) ). I have played my human mage almost all the time.
Third World Of Warcraft expansion that update the old world from the first release and also add some new areas. Now it's possible to fly mounts in the old world.
Sixth expansion and the Burning Legion invades Azeroth. A new continent called the Broken Isles show up in Azeroth. This time you run around and power up a artifact weapons.
The fourth expansion for World of Warcraft adds a new playable race, the Pandaren and a new class, the Monk. The changed the talent trees also and not sure if it is better. Level 90 is the new top level and my Mage has a new goal in the game, collect items with no in game bonus but with fun effects. Like a ball of paint that you can throw on people to turn them orange.
Expansion to WOW that adds the Outlands as a new game world that high-level characters can go to and also makes it possible to use flying mounts, my mage now has a flying carpet :). The expansion also adds two new races (Draenei and Blood Elves) and possibility to reach level 70.
Puzzle game with Mario and the goal is to use your hammer to run around and smash all the walls on each level. Some things you destroy can have side effects so you need to find the correct order to destroy everything in. Can be played in co-op multi player also and as always it is more fun. As most games like this it grows tiresome fast as most of the 100 levels are to much alike and you end up running around trying to punch down the other player :)
Puzzle game where two balls drop in the level and your goal it to get them inside a goal basket. Do do that you first place blocks for the balls to bounce on or fans to blow them to the side. Then you press play to see what happens and if it do not work right you move your blocks until it work. The screen is split in to with one screen for each ball when you run the level. When you place the blocks the lower part show all things you can place and the top part show the level. A bit lacking in the user interface but it's still a fun.
The first XCOM is better as all the timers annoy me in this one. There seems to be clocks counting down or up everywhere. I enjoy building my base and sneaking around shooting the aliens in the face. It's hard when there is always a timer that makes it a rush. The War of the Chosen expansion has a mod called Avatar Be Gone that removes the worst timer and it is also possible to lengthen some of the timers in the expansion. Without the mod I would not have played this game at all.
You need to save Zelda again and as before you to it by walking around to castles and killing boss monsters. This time the battles takes place in a separate side scrolling combat view and you need to collect experience points to improve your skills so you can fight better.
The Zombie wars roll on, this time in Italy with content from Sniper Elite 4. Zombie hordes get tiresome for to long so i would like to have seen more zombie tanks, zombie sharks and other zombie things. Lost some character progress and that was no fun.
Note about Movies:
None of the Youtube movies that i link to are made by me and i include them only to give you a chance to see what the game
looks like. Only the text and the smiley score act as my review of the game .
