This base was known for its intensive research on the alien threat, having produced a number of papers on their behaviour and biological makeup, information the ISAF paid a great deal for. It's unknown whether the attack on this base was caused by the recent presence of a number of recently captured live bugs or whether it was just a random attack.
[Valve Steam]***Alien Swarm: Infested is an upcoming action strategy game featuring a unique blend of co-op play and squad level tactics all in an overhead view. As a Commander in the Interstellar Armed Forces, your job is to guide your squad and successfully complete their mission against the ravages of the Swarm infestation, a threat which plagues mankind across the breadth of colonized space.

Allods Online  Nival Online;Gala Networks Europe (Astrum Nival)2009Personally I hate the fact that parties are only formed for mobs that require about 10 or so people to work together ("raid") to defeat. Besides that, parties don't seem to be formed and everyone is soloing. If parties were formed more readily (and actually needed by more than the support classes, such as the healer), I might consider this a good game, but woe, it does not. There's a high variety in the available classes, but the annoyingly non-existant need to work together like in some other MMOs just makes this a very boring single-player experience.

Of course, I don't know about high level stuff since leveling up there on solo takes a looong time. Fact which has escaped me for quite some time, since partying would speed this up, but no-one wants to form parties.***Open beta starts on 2010-02-16.***2009-10-01 Open Beta starts in Russia***[b]Minimum:[/b]

Uses the AD&D ruleset. is set in Forgotten realms where Baldur's Gate is a location. This game begins the Baldur's Gate series. Players can create and name Human, Elf, Dwarf, Half-Elf, Halfling, and Gnome characters of either gender of the Fighter, Mage, Thief, Cleric, Ranger, Druid, or Paladin classes. Some classes can engage in sorcery according to the AD&D ruleset. Players can also dual-class or multi-class according the AD&D ruleset. In a 1-player game, the player controls an entire party, in multiplayer games, each player can control one or more characters (or none at all). Players must cooperate, there is no competitive options in the game. There are multiple ways for a character to summon underlings for temporary help. Characters must sleep or suffer the effects of fatigued. Characters can also become poisoned, confused,charmed, enfeebled, paralyzed, turned to stone, encumbered, impaired, or drunk if the character does avoid situations that lead to such effects. The detail of the fantasy world this game takes place in seems to qualify it as belonging to the high fantasy genre. Characters can use bows, crossbows, slings, knives, swords, axes, bludgeons, pole arms, whips, or fight unarmed (non-lethal). A vast number of items can be aquired from stashes in the world, on defeated foes, or purchased from shops or individuals. The AI of the player's characters can be programmed in a scriptable language. But this is highly optional as adequate AIs are provided or the player can pause constantly to direct everybody with point-n-click commands; then unpause for as long as those commands are helpfully being executed. (Documentation for Scripting can be found on the 1st CD. Users have created AIs that can be found online and loaded into an existing game). Many NPC can be joined to the party and left to retrieve later. Some will leave if they are unhappy with the main characters actions. Evil people prefer the main character to do evil, good characters prefer good. Some NPC have their on purposes for joining and will stay of leave depending on the changing conditions matching their goals or not. The experience system follows the AD&D ruleset. This includes XP awarded for defeating enemies and for completing quests (which are documented on-the-fly in an automated journal that also records some plot information). The XP required to level up are preset according the the AD&D ruleset. When leveling up (at the players initiation, once the require XP are collected), skill points are awarded that can be distributed to a subset of skills available to the character's class (not all AD&D skills are included in this game). Several small village/towns can be visited and Baldur's Gate is a massive 10+ levels (not counting interiors that include multistory buildings) of civilization that approaches the definition of a city. Several large keeps make up whole levels (again not counting interiors that include multistory buildings). Several tall towers can be explored. Many multilevel mines and dungeons can or must be explored. Developers comments can be read on some tombstones a cemetery. [spoiler=View spoiler;Close]Bauldur's Gate has a sewer system as a location.[/spoiler]. Books, scrolls, and documents in the game offer extraneous details about the Forgotten Realms and Bauldur's Gate area, plot background, plot information, and character advancement training (rare). This game is available in a 5 CD set (original), 3 CD set, or on a single DVD to save on disc swapping. The game can be configured to run from the various CD or have them installed to hard drive per CD. But, upon running the game will require CD 1 to be in the drive for copy egest.
[spoiler=plot similarities;Close]The plot shares some similarities to events in the Book of The Watchers (from the Book of Enoch, an apocryphal Jewish writing). In Baldur's Gate, an unearthly being came to the earthly realm and copulated with mortal females. The children of these unions have unusual and advanced traits and eventual fight with and kill each other. In the book of the watchers, unearthly beings came to the earth and copulated with mortal females. The children of these unions are giants and eventually fight with and kill each other.[/spoiler]

Dragon's Crown  Atlus;NIS America (Vanillaware)2013Has been target of some controversy due to female reviewers (specifically ones that are vocally feminist) not liking the game's depiction of genders, with consumers of those reviews getting angry at them for no good reason, when the game is clearly targeted at adolescent or similarly minded males. Women (reviewers) not liking the game is not unexpected, these same reviewers have no requirement to review them from the perspective of the games' intended audience (unless that's their reviewing gimmick, which probably rarely or never is). In the end, the controversy is mostly from people condemning some reviewers for voicing their opinion on the game just because the reviewers were not in the game's target audience and thus received the game poorly (and gave poor scores for the game as result).

Dungeon Siege impels the player into one over-the-top battle after the other as the storyline unfolds and a larger plot begins to reveal itself. A world of adventure where you can explore sprawling landscapes in a seamlessly unfolding story awaits...Your adventures take place in the Kingdom of Ehb is one of the youngest states bordering the Plain of Tears. Protected by a ring of superb fortifications and heir to the 10th Legion-arguably one of the best trained armies in the world, the Kingdom of Ehb has, so far, been shielded from the raids and invasions that have devastated many of its neighboring states on the Plain.Within Ehb's borders, there is an astonishing diversity in geography and cultures. Most inhabitants worship Azunai, an ancient god of the pre-Imperial Agallan Peaks. Dwarves and men live together in harmony and bow to the same king. Sorcerers are also more accepted than in other countries, thanks in large part to the efforts of Merik, Grand Mage and Warden of Shadows of the 10th Legion. And in the heart of the kingdom, a strange and often contrary race called the Droog is allowed a degree of autonomy, despite its sometimes-troublesome alliances.It is a country in search of an identity, caught between the glories of a fallen past and the potential for an even greater future. Despite several crises, Ehb has never fallen to an enemy. But at any time the course of events could turn down a bleaker path.***Latest version: 1.11.1462 (as of 2002-07) Windowslabelimagesubject

Japanese release.***1998 January 29- North American Release.
Not quite the classic gameplay that has pushed the Final Fantasy series to the sucess it has now, this game is still one of the best I have ever played. The story is quite gripping, the graphics are very well done, and the gameplay was interesting enough to keep my attention. The game is long, however, and can take quite a while to beat. It brings back the class system seen in Final Fantasy III (NES) and Final Fantasy V (SNES). Among the differences are the battles, which are more of a stragitic campain than a standard RPG 'Attack, use magic, use item...) without thought. It is a fairly difficult game, but good to play. The enemies' levels increase in ratio to yours.***Still one of the best Strategy RPGs out there. If you're a fan of SRPGs... well I'm sure you've played this already. Chances are, this is the game that made you a fan of the genre as it was one of the first great SRPGs to be brought to the US.

Ultimately, he must unravel the riddle of the crystals, the magical stones that are the key to restoring his home.***One of the best games for the GBA, in my opinion. FFTA is a turn-based Strategy RPG. Think of this as a more light-hearted version of the Playstation Final Fantasy Tactics. The graphics are awesome and there'll be plenty of quests for you to do. The best thing about FFTA is that you can use the Assassin Class! Remember those two pesky Assassins in FFT? Well, now you can be one! Cross the Assassin with the Sniper Class, use Stealth, sneak up behind your enemies and POW! Insant one hit kills! Or you can turn them to stone, I personally prefer to turn them to stone...

Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Ken  Nintendo (Intelligent Systems)1990Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Ken is a tactical role-playing game where players take on the role of Marth and his growing army during their campaign across the continent of Archanea. The game progresses in a linear fashion, with maps being unlocked and played as dictated by the storyline. Each playable character is assigned a unique character classes that have various functions in battle, such as being mounted or having access to magic. A unit's class affects their range of movement and strength on the battlefield; mounted or flying units have greater mobility, archers have a greater attack range, while heavily armored characters have more damage resistance. Each character has a set character class, and each time a unit raises its experience level, its various stats increase randomly. There are a total of 25 characters that can be recruited over the course of the game, and 21 available classes for the majority of characters, with the exception of main protagonist Marth.

Battles use a turn-based battle system, with a limited number of player units and enemy units each taking turns and moving across a grid-based battlefield: battles are won by the player defeating key enemy units such as commanders and other boss characters. In battle, the game transitions to a dedicated battle arena, where the battle plays out in real-time. Each action yields experience points (EXP), and when the character earns 100 EXP, they level up, their health increases, and their class-specified statistics are randomly raised. During missions, towns and secret vendors can be visited, where new items such as healing potions, weapons and armor can be purchased. Weapons and armor are specific to different characters, and each weapon has a limited lifespan before breaking when it reaches its limit. Currency is limited to certain scripted or player-driven events, or wagering on arena battles. If a character falls in battle, they are subjected to permanent death, removing them from subsequent missions and the rest of the storyline. The game ends if Marth falls in battle.
