9.03m	Space Budgie	2013	A tribute to the victims of the tsunami caused by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake in Japan, and inspired by reports of debris being washed ashore on the U.S. West Coast, months after the disaster struck. While exploring Baker Beach in San Francisco, silhouettes of people vanish when they are approached, and turn into personal items washed ashore. It is an attempt to remind people that, behind the death tolls and the countless objects, there are personal stories, memories and tragedies. All proceeds from the game's sales were donated to charities helping victims of natural disasters.	Windows

Battleship	SimoneSystems Software	1991	Classic Battleship with a twist: before the main game begins, both the player and his computer opponent get the opportunity to place eight sea mines. If a ship is placed over a grid cell which was mined by the other side, they score an immediate hit and get the additional advantage of already knowing the position of one of the enemy ships. Players get to shoot one more shell per round for each enemy ship they already sank; however, if they hit a mine it's the opponent's turn immediately.	MS-DOS

Both the player and the computer pick players from a database to form a team and those teams will play against each other. The results of the matches are based on random numbers and batting averages from the database. Each event during the match is printed by the computer, letting the player know who hit the ball, when a base is stolen, a ball is caught, the pitcher hit the batter, etc. The only commands available to the player are cheats to force a hit or miss, or to request a postion of all the runners. A game lasted around 7 to 11 minutes.**Designed for the IBM 1620 but required a 20K memory card upgrade.	custom

Breakout	Apple Computer	1977	An implementation of the ball-and-paddle game, programmed by Steve Wozniak, creator of the Apple II computer. Wozniak was also involved in the engineering of the [game=261]arcade original[/game] for [company=Atari]Atari[/company]. He used Breakout as a demonstration for his new computer, and to determine some of the features it should have. As in the original, players have to break out bricks from a multi-layer wall by bouncing a ball against it. They use the rotary knob on the Apple II's game controller to move a paddle, in order to keep the ball from leaving the game area, and ricochet it back towards the wall. Compared to the arcade original, the wall is on the right hand side instead of at the top, to account for the horizontal screen orientation. The wall consists of 8 layers of 20 bricks each, with each brick earning the player a number of points according to the layer it was in. The player is given 5 balls to try and reach the maximum score of 720. When the board is clear, the game ends. If unable to clear the whole board, the player is given a ranking according to the score they achieved. The game was distributed as Integer BASIC source code for the Apple II's built-in interpreter, on a demonstration cassette supplied with early systems. It allows players to customize the game by asking for their name, and letting them change the color palette. Speaker beeps of different pitches give audio feedback on what the ball is hitting.***[media=youtube]bQqThqkzC8c[/media]	Apple II E

Crazy Taxi	Sega (AM3)	1999	Un juego de conducción alocado sin circuito fijo, donde tienes que llevar a tus pasajeros a su destino tratando de hacer todo tipo de atajos y cabriolas por el camino, e incluso si te sientes con valor recoger a más de un viaje a la vez. 8 de 10* [27]We all know the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, however, not many roads allow you to put this principle into practice. For those of you frustrated by this seemingly illogical fact of life, Sega happily introduces Crazy Taxi, a game where the definition of "road" no longer specifically applies just to those surfaces covered by asphalt and concrete. "The object of Crazy Taxi is to get your passenger to his or her destination as quickly as possible," explained Sega’s Director of Sales & Marketing Pete Gustafson. "To do so, you might find you’ll have to bend a few rules of the road." "Bend" might be a bit of an understatement unless of course you find driving through parks, beaches, and malls a normal part of your commute home. Crazy Taxi’s game play will remind many players of Sega’s smash-hit [game=#161333]Harley Davidson and the L.A. Riders[/game]. Like Harley, game play takes place in a virtual city, this one modeled after San Francisco. Players pick up one of over two hundred-fifty passengers located throughout the city and as quickly as possible, deliver them to their destination. The game will "suggest" a route but like Harley, if you think you know a better way to go, (like through a park or mall) go for it! Players get "tips" from their passengers by passing cars and not hitting them. They can earn extra time both by taking the shortest possible route and by stopping exactly under the arrow indicating the destination. "There are a number of hidden features in the game," continued Gustafson. "For instance, players can pickup under water passengers by driving off the beach and into the ocean. Also, by pulling a "U" turn at the start of the game they’ll find an entirely new area of the city to explore." These and many other hidden features are sure to keep players returning again and again to see what else Crazy Taxi has to offer.[b]Soundtrack titles:[/b] • Bad Religion – Hear It • Bad Religion – Ten in 2010 • Bad Religion – Them and Us • Bad Religion – Inner Logic • The Offspring – All I Want • The Offspring – Way Down the Line • The Offspring – Change the World*Crazy Taxi is a mission-based car "racing" game where you drive a taxi and pick up customers. The wackier you drive (the wrong side of the motorway, passing cars between lanes, etc. etc.) the higher you score. This game is a complete winner compared to the "standard genre" games presented by SEGA for a long time...	Arcade

You'll cruise around New York City delivering passengers to their destinations and collecting some big tips. New to Crazy Taxi 2 is the ability to pick up and deliver multiple "fares." One of the most talked-about features is the hydraulic jump button you can press to find shortcuts and avoid dangerous situations. There's also an expanded roster of four additional drivers and cars.

Crime Scene: Manhattan	Rondomedia (Blimb;Team6 Game Studios)	2003	Play the role of a female assassin (Gloria) from Hollywood, who is forced to flee to New York and lie low after her last job ended badly, barely avoiding arrest... and revenge. The next few days will be critical for her as she desperately searches for money and the kind of contacts she can count on and trust for help. With your guidance, she may succeed in earning enough money to obtain a new identity, and ultimately the chance to go back to sunny California! * Hi-octane racing action with six different cars, five different weapons and lots of pedestrians. * 20+ missions take place on a highly detailed 3D-model of Manhattan. * Unique game modes such as Mafiamode (take protection cash) and Stuntmode (get money and bonuses for stunts)	Windows

Half-Life	Sierra On-Line (Valve)	1998	[100]* [12]* [84]*Half-Life Deathmatch: Source is a recreation of the first multiplayer game set in the Half-Life universe. Features all the classic weapons and most-played maps, now running on the Source engine. (Source standalone multiplayer/deathmatch mode)Winner of over 50 Game of the Year awards, Half-Life set new standards for action games when it was released in 1998. Half-Life: Source is a digitally remastered version of the critically acclaimed and best selling PC game, enhanced via Source technology to include physics simulation, enhanced effects, and more. (Source Remake Half-Life)Named Game of the Year by over 50 publications, Valve's debut title blends action and adventure with award-winning technology to create a frighteningly realistic world where players must think to survive. Also includes an exciting multiplayer mode that allows you to play against friends and enemies around the world. (GoldSrc Half-Life)* [53]*The gifted son of the love triangle between Wolf3, Doom and Quake. Having a Steam account without Half-Life is as absurd as a Spanish omelet without eggs or potatoes. Absolutely essential, recommended therapy against claustrophobia, arachnophobia, boredom and addiction to Wolverine clone shooters. It is recommended not to touch the microwave. Valve's greatest masterpiece to date. 10 out of 10There's two versions of this game (also of Blue Shift and Opposing Force) out, one uses the original GoldSrc engine, and another which was ported to the newer Source engine with very few (barely notable) changes to how the game appears or works.*[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows 95, 98 or NT4 * 133 MHz Pentium CPU * 24 MB RAM * Mouse * Keyboard***Listed as Game of the Year by nearly all (if not all) of the major gaming publications, this first person shooter is excellently done. From the gripping story, to the wonderfully scripted AI, this game will have even hard core gamers coming back for more. Many people complain about the late game "jumping torture" areas, but all in all this is a wonderfully designed game that raises the bar for all games to come. Also, it offers a graphics and AI engine that is hugely editable, allowing a vast number of Single Player and Multiplayer mods. To date, no game has matched its appeal or sales figures: and still it tops nearly every list of games.	Windows
Hamurabi	Apple	1976	This game first appeared in 1969 on a DEC PDP-8, written in FOCAL, an ALGOL derivative, by the language's author, Rick Merrill (taking up 700 mighty bytes!) It gained popularity among the mainframe set after being ported to BASIC (needing to be trimmed down to 400 bytes in the process) and influenced at least one generation of game designers after its source code hit the mainstream in David H. Ahl's 1978 book BASIC Computer Games (aka 101 BASIC Computer Games), published by Creative Computing... seeing it typed feverishly, over and over again, into BASIC-interpreting microcomputers worldwide. You can see scans of the original BASIC source code publication at http://atariarchives.org/basicgames/showpage.php?page=78 or, if you prefer, a raw text conversions of them at http://www.moorecad.com/classicbasic/basic/creative/hamurabi.bas.

Legend of Grimrock	Almost Human Games	2012	Simplemente la mejor conversión al videojuego del misterio, emoción y claustrofobia mental que transmite un juego de rol de exploración de mazmorras. Además de destaca por su único sistema de juego, que mezcla un manejo casi de aventura gráfica con un combate a semitiempo real y una creación de personajes muy RPG y variada. Y especialmente notable por su efecto "sólo una escalera/puerta más", haciendo volar el tiempo con facilidad. Eso sí, lo del modo Old School ya es para nostálgicos masocas XD 9 de 10.**What is Legend of Grimrock? Old-school dungeon crawling game inspired by Dungeon Master, Eye of the Beholder and Ultima Underworld. * Explore a vast dungeon riddled with hidden switches, pressure plates, sliding walls, trapdoors and more. * Discover secrets, cast spells with runes and craft potions with herbs. * Fight murderous monsters and seek lost artifacts in ancient tombs. * Create a party of four characters and customize them with different races, classes, skills and traits. Legend of Grimrock is a dungeon crawling role playing game with an oldschool heart but a modern execution. A group of prisoners are sentenced to certain death by exiling them to the secluded Mount Grimrock for vile crimes they may or may not have committed. Unbeknownst to their captivators, the mountain is riddled with ancient tunnels, dungeons and tombs built by crumbled civilizations long perished now. If they ever wish to see daylight again and reclaim their freedom the ragtag group of prisoners must form a team and descend through the mountain, level by level. The game brings back the oldschool challenge with highly tactical real-time combat and grid-based movement, devious hidden switches and secrets as well as deadly traps and horrible monsters. Legend of Grimrock puts an emphasis on puzzles and exploration and the wits and perception of the player are more important tools than even the sharpest of swords could be. And if you are a hardened dungeon crawling veteran and you crave an extra challenge, you can arm yourself with a stack of grid paper and turn on the Oldschool Mode which disables the luxury of the automap! Are you ready to venture forth and unravel the mysteries of Mount Grimrock?	Windows
London Taxi	Hemming (Blimb;Team6 Game Studios)	2002	[company=Team6 Game Studios]Team6 Game Studios[/company] re-released the game on their own, through [company=Xing]Xing Interactive[/company], in late 2003. It was called [i]London Taxi 2[/i] or [i]Taxi Racer London 2[/i] and sold as a quasi-sequel. It had less features but was based on an updated version of the game engine. A legal defeat (most likely against [company=Blimb]Blimb Entertainment[/company], through which the original game was released) later forced Team6 to cease and desist any sales or promotion of the game.***Earn your money like you never did before, in a wild chase for fame and fortune!

Minecraft	Mojang	2011	Minecraft is a game about breaking and placing blocks.

A simulator-simulator, simulating Claude Shannon’s relay-based maze solving simulator "Theseus" (1950).

Mystery House	On-Line Systems	1980	Widely thought to be the first text adventure to include graphics. This game is also unique in that the plot and object of the game is not known until well into it. Also, completing the game is not accomplished by a protagonist/player that must be the squeaky clean heroic good guy who wins by doing everything perfectly. There are some interesting plot twists. The plot was influenced by Agatha Christie's [i]And Then There Were None[/i]. For Sierra's seventh birthday, they released Mystery House to the public domain. [Zerothis]	Apple II E
