Agent X II: The Mad Prof's Back!	Mastertronic	1987	[8]* [6]* [41]***Now this game gives me trouble in figuring out whether a 128k version exists or not. "World of Spectrum" has separate methods to load the game, background music during the levels only when playing the 128k version. On my own Spectrum +2, I always get background music, in 128k mode as well as when switching down to 48k mode. So I can't say for sure yet if a special 128k mode exists and if it exists what the added features are. [teran01]	en	ZX Spectrum

Battlezone: Rise of the Black Dogs	Crave Entertainment (Climax Entertainment)	2000	Battlezone 64 introduces a bevy of new twists on the old theme. Players choose between three modes: arcade, pilot, and commander. The arcade variation most closely resembles the original's gameplay, namely shoot anything and everything that may resemble an enemy until it blows up. The second mode sends players on tasks provided by a mission commander, adding a bit of adventure and responsibility to the mix. The third variation most closely resembles the PC revision's combination of action and strategic gameplay, enabling players to collect vital resources necessary for building new structures and vehicles, and to populate a base with defensive measures and command units. Added bonus: the freedom to jump out of your vehicle, stealthily run to another (30 vehicles in all with over 15 weapons), climb aboard, and battle on. Multiplayer mode allows up to four players to battle, or two players to compete in a more strategic game style.	en	N64

Descent	author (Parallax Software;author)	2010	In the year 2012 the Post Terran Mining Company (PTMC) has used save labor to create automated mines on 15 planets and moons of the solar system. The mistreated slaves have rebelled, killed their masters, and claimed the mines as their homes. PTMC hires you to invade these newly claimed homes and perpetrate genocide. Shoot the robot monsters!***This was a commercially available proprietary game. The source code was later released under the GPL (and proprietary and Public Domain, in other words a proprietary license) but the content remains definitively proprietary. Mines throughout the solar system have been taken over by the robots built to mine them. Humans have been killed or imprisoned in the mines. It seems to be caused by some sort of computer virus. The owning company has hired a mercenary to rescue the surviving prisoners and destroy the main reactor in each mine, thus destroying the infected robots. Shoot the robots, get power ups, find the keys, find the reactor, rescue the humans, destroy the reactor, escape the exploding mine. Any commercial version of Descent can be played on Linux using either the D1X, D2X, DXX-Rebirth, or D2X-XL engines. Yes, That includes the [game=&ftag=descent&fplat=3]PlayStation version[/game]. These are all considered source-ports. All aspects except for movies from the Mac version are preserved. The graphics are enhanced through OpenGL, any resolution, and proper widescreen options. D2X-XL also adds modes, difficulty levels, multiplayer options, graphics effects, faster or slower options, weapons enhancements, massive level design improvements (multiple boss robots can work as a team, robots can carry keys and switches), and an extensive help menu.[spoiler= ; ][/spoiler] The source code license can be read [url=https://github.com/drguildo/Descent/blob/master/README.TXT]here[/url]. It is a fully proprietary license that permits anything except commercial use. The media headline "released Descent's source code (version 1.5) to the public domain for noncommercial purposes." Is totally $#!@&%, as "public domain" prohibits having any restrictions, including non-commercial. The original media remains fully proprietary as well. [Zerothis]	en	Linux

Descent	Interplay (Parallax Software)	1995	Originally the levels were to be on board space stations. The use of a spacecraft and the micro-gravity nature of the environment actually do make a lot more sense this way. I mean, who flies a spacecraft into a mine? And why is there no evidence of gravity in the mines? (I vaguely recall the story of the game actually contrived something to explain the lack of gravity in the mines). The creative people decided that navigating space stations, although not in 3D, had been done to death already (and specifically it had been done in the FPS genre). After deciding on the new setting, game was refereed to as [i]Miner[/i]. Both documents and the source code used this title. Nobody much liked this title. The editor was name Med ([b]M[/b]iner [b]ed[/b]itor) but the dev team refused to call it anything but "The Editor". Based on the official designated title being chosen as [i]Inferno[/i], The dev team integrated inferno into source code. This official title only lasted 2 days however, as it was discovered that Ocean was releasing a game by that title and it would be published before [i]Miner[/i] could be. And there was an [i]Inferno[/i] episode of Doom.*Comes on 5 3½ disks.
