1942	Capcom (Micronics)	1985	[media=youtube]https://youtu.be/N7mDn_ceL2Q[/media]* [52]* [52]*The positive aspect of this classic vertical-scrolling shooting game are the good play controls. On the negative side stands the repetitive stage and enemy design. Over 30 levels is much for an old shooting game, but after a few stages you have virtually seen everything the game has to offer. And in later stages with many enemies on screen the game begins to flicker annoyingly. Still quite an improvement over other classic shooters like [game=#8480]Xevious[/game].*This game is great its just your plane and you fighting planes for 34 or so levels. Watch out for the sand and the planes that circle you and come out you from behiend [mouw]	NES

Cold Fear	Ubisoft Entertainment (Darkworks)	2005	There's only two things I dislike about this game. For one, being able to carry every single weapon found. This is supposed to be survival horror, you know. For second, the boss battle. I can't remember playing more aggravating boss battle than this on PC (console gamers seem to love these insanely overpowered bosses as they're so damn common on them). Way overpowered compared to anything else met and [i]nothing[/i] prepares you for it. Finally used a trainer to get through it because the game was sitting at the final battle for over a month (probably one fourth of the game can be played in the same amount of time I invested solely on the boss battle). [spoiler=Grievances with boss battle;Hide]Effectively you have to shoot the boss until he turns his attention to you, dodge the charge he makes either left or right, by staring at him in the aim view until he raises either of his arms to strike (so you know which side to dodge to), and repeat this until Anna escapes (which takes some 5+ charges). After this you have to wait for him to charge, dodge that, and then run back in front of him so he can grab you - YES! you have to intentionally let him grab you here. And then hit action button to get released. After you do this the third time, you can shoot him in the face. This has to be repeated about 3 times in total, so that's surviving about 9 more charges while managing to let him grab you. You don't have any healing items and you die on the third charge you fail to dodge. There's also the fact that the only way to dodge the boss is to stare down at him until he raises either of his arms (lest you wish to rely on luck as there's no pattern) and then swivel quickly to the opposite side, release aim and [i]run[/i]. There's probably less than a second for you to do this, so imagine repeating this sequence few times, dying at the final part several dozen times because you [i]can't[/i] do it fast enough, and that's pretty much it for playing this game through without cheating.[/spoiler] [spoiler=Third grievance and a spoiler;Hide]Tom gets infected second time but I don't recall him getting an antidote, so I have to assume he spreads the parasites to the rest of the world. The ending is very curt, but then I didn't watch through the credits for any hidden hints on that.[/spoiler]*Comes on 3 CDs.[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows 2000 or XP * 1 GHz CPU * 256 MB RAM * 64 MB VRAM * 2.2 GB HD space * 8X CD-ROM drive [b]Recommended:[/b] * 2 GHz CPU * 512 MB RAM * 128 MB VRAM***[size=150]Embark on a Voyage of No Return[/size] You are Tom Hansen, a US Coast Guard, investigating a distress call from a large Russian whaler in the middle of the Bering Sea.

Dead Island	Techland;Deep Silver (Techland)	2011	An open sandbox zombie survival game with crafting (talking about fresh ideas) that brings both brute gory fun and great atmosphere. Pros: -Simple crafting-upgrade system. -Stamina-reliant combat and movement. -IA (specially for beings that hunt down brains) -Drowning zombies. -Leveling up with RPG-like characters and trees (Borderlands anyone?) Cons: -No animals. -No use of extra weapons for repairing or carftfing. -No swimming. -Right seat wheel car. 6 of 10*Note that Dead Island does not strictly match Zombie Apocalypse genre as the zombie outbreak is limited to the island of Banoi with an excessive military quarantine making sure nothing goes in or out of there, thus the outbreak is sufficiently contained. However, none of the events in the game take place outside the containment area, giving it the overall appearance of zombie apocalypse without actually being it.Terror. Violence. Madness. Bedlam. A holiday paradise gone mad. A tropical island turns into total chaos after a mysterious zombie outbreak. Cut off from the rest of the world, the player’s only chance to survive is to fight to the death and find a way to escape from the island. Dead Island combines first-person action with a heavy focus on melee combat, character development and customization of a vast array of weapons. All of these gameplay features are presented in a dark story inspired by classic zombie movies with a gritty and engrossing campaign that can be played with up to four players in co-op mode. Set in an open world tropical island, hordes of different festering zombies await players around every corner while they embark on a variety of thrilling missions through the holiday resort. With firearms and ammunition being scarce the player must rely on utilizing found items as weapons for self-defense and fight off zombie hordes in intense melee combat. A diverse range of items can be collected and will later serve to transform the player’s ordinary makeshift weapons into serious instruments of destruction. In addition to satisfying even the most bloodthirsty action fan’s fantasy, Dead Island also features role-playing elements which allow the player to develop one of the game’s unique character classes according to their preferences, all the while learning new skills and fresh tactics during their journey through the perilous environments of the island. What’s more, anytime during a game up to four players can seamlessly join together and experience the intense combat and immersive story with cooperative gameplay. With the all-new Chrome Engine 5 powering Dead Island, the game will use the latest installment of Techland’s acclaimed proprietary game engine, allowing the player to experience the tropical island paradise in graphical splendor with diverse environments like lush forests and detailed city environments. Key Features First-person melee combat * 4-player coop * Weapon customization * Set on an gorgeous open world tropical island * RPG elements for character development * Hordes of gruesome zombies	Windows
