Global Agenda	Hi-Rez Studios	2010	To summarize my view of what Global Agenda is: Sci-fi [game=#157590]Guild Wars[/game], even though that isn't exactly accurate.**GLOBAL AGENDA is a fast-paced action MMO using Unreal® Engine 3 set in Earth's near future, a spy-fi world of advanced technology and player-driven conflict. In the wake of severe global disaster, the political face of 22nd century earth has changed and player-created factions scheme against each other for power. Traditional full-scale wars a thing of the past, factions must rely on covert agencies, teams of elite special operatives able to seize and defend key facilities. The future of humanity is their battleground, where knowledge is power, technology is a race, and everyone has an agenda. The players control the world of Global Agenda, forging alliances with their peers and executing lightning strikes against their enemies. They determine which factions to aid and which to oppose, while the only thing that stands in their way is other agencies. Develop your agent - Create, extensively customize, and improve your agent character over the course of your career, complimenting your FPS skills with RPG-style progression and high-tech gear. * Advance your agency - Join a player-created agency, compete in technology races for advanced equipment, and capture critical locations to increase your influence in the world. * Compete in fast-paced PvP combat - Work with your allies to gather reconnaissance data, then raid or capture enemy-controlled facilities during objective-based missions. Equip yourself from a powerful array of weapons, armor, and strategic devices like triggered explosives, deployable turrets, stealth suits, holographic decoys, and remote control robots. * Experience a dynamic, player-driven world - Agency leaders navigate through a global conflict of other player-run groups, striving to reach their goals first. Territory, resources, technology, and influence are all valuable commodities, with agencies engaging in politics, intrigue, and outright deception to control them. [Hi-Rez Studios]
Gas Guzzlers Extreme	Iceberg Interactive	2013
Kholat	IMGN.PRO	2015	Based on the Dyatlov Pass incident in the Ural Mountains.
Outcast	Infogrames;Fresh3D (Appeal;Fresh3D)	1999	Fresh3D re-released the game on 2014-12-18 as Outcast 1.1 which was updated for modern systems. The game is largely identical to the original except for support for 3D hardware acceleration and some HUD and input updates as well as bug fixes.* [53]The game was a sort of technical marvel when it was released. Depth of field, software rendering only, voxels, and whatever else I'm forgetting. Possibly the only game ever using depth of field effect with software rendering, possibly also the first game with depth of field.*[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows 95 * Pentium 200 MHz CPU * 32 MB RAM * 2 MB VRAM * 4X CD-ROM drive * 600 MB free HD space [b]Recommended:[/b] * Pentium 300 MHz CPU * 64Mb of RAM * 4 MB VRAM * 8X CD ROM drive * 700 MB free HD space * 4 axes joystick The game seems to run fine even on WinXP64 with all 3 patches applied (the first one is used to install the game) and running in Win98 compatibility mode (the patches need to be run in this as well).*In the year 2007, the US government successfully deploys a probe designed to prove the existence of a parallel universe. Minutes into the mission, an intelligent alien life form damages the probe. On Earth, an unforeseen backlash of energy creates a black hole which threatens the very existence of the planet. You are Cutter Slade, a US Navy S.E.A.L. Commander, charged with the safety of the three scientists who have been chosen to travel to this new world, Adelpha. Your mission: confront the dangers of a mysterious and hostile world in order to recover the probe and close the black hole. The Earth's future is in your hands. 6 VAST AND DIVERSE CONTINENTS, inhabited by thousands of living creatures, both friend and foe. TOTAL FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT: you can climb, crawl, swim, talk, ride, fight, etc. GADGETS & WEAPONS: flame-thrower, tripwire, explosives, X-ray glasses, invisibility, tracer gun, dart gun, perforator gun and the crowd dispersing boomer gun... and a lot more to discover. GROUND-BREAKING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: interact with characters and creatures who behave with unprecedented levels of realism. 1ST AND 3RD PERSON CAMERA PERSPECTIVES which dynamically reacts intuitively to every situation you encounter. ORIGINAL MUSICAL SCORE performed by the Moscow Symphony Orchestra. [Box blurb]*Outcast is a superb action adventure. Unlike Quake or Half-Life, one has to talk to and help many people to progress - as well as killing plenty of soldiers! :-) What marks the game out are its graphics - Infogrames bravely went for a voxel engine, which produces smooth round surfaces and stunning quality of light in the realistic, outdoor sites (not a sewer or warehouse in sight). The music is also superb. This game is in my all time top 5, along with (for those retros out there) Avalon, Knightlore, Carmageddon II, and Half-life.
Gothic 3	JoWooD Productions;Deep Silver;Aspyr Media (Piranha Bytes)	2006	Also published by Game Factory Interactive (GFI) in Russia.**THE STORY Players saved their home island Khorinis from the forces of evil in [[gameid:47040 Gothic]] and [[gameid:102172 Gothic 2]]. Now it is time to travel to the realms of the mainland, where invading Orcs have enslaved the human kingdom. There are only a few free humans living in the nearly uninhabitable icy northlands of Nordmar and in the southern desert of Varrant, and a handful of rebels hiding in the mountainous forests of the Middle Realm. Players can choose to join the rebellion and stay true to the deposed human king, serve the Orcish usurpers in their quest to topple the last remaining human stronghold, or choose a path that serves their own ends. Every decision made will have an impact on the game world and tip the balance of power. There is no simple linear story in Gothic 3 - every game will be different and unique, with the player ultimately deciding the fate of humankind. FEATURES Huge free-roaming, hand-crafted world with no loading times once you are in the game * All new combat system that allows unprecedented control over melee attacks * Clear, non-linear objectives within the main story allow the player to influence the outcome of the narrative * Living world where the player's interactions with characters have a dramatic impact on gameplay * Engrossing storyline driven by the player's choices * Countless side-quests for the player to explore * More than 50 different monsters and dozens of human enemies * A host of powerful spells and a huge variety of weapons * Advanced and complex human behavior AI for hundreds of individual characters, all featuring high quality audio dialogues * Unique class-free character development -- the absence of rigid character classes means players can choose to train their character with a wide variety of military and magical powers * Soundtrack by the Bochum Symphony Orchestra, a world class orchestra from Bochum, Germany [Aspyr]

Grotesque Tactics: Evil Heroes	Meridian4;Headup Games (Silent Dreams)	2010	Un juego de rol por turnos sencillo y entretenido, una parodia viva del género. Recomendable tanto como un primer acercamiento al combate por turnos como por su múltiples referencias y humor a otros juegos y obras de fantasía en general, además de un interesante toque absurdo/surrealista. 6 de 10**Concepts removed in patches: [url=/groups/info/selfluminance]self-luminance[/url] (1.2.0.2)*Latest version: 1.2.0.2 (as of 2011-04-19)Grotesque Tactics combines the features and clichés of Western and Asian console RPGs like Fire Emblem or Final Fantasy Tactics and provides a highly addicting and entertaining change to the current, more serious role playing games. The game is focused on providing the fascination of the Strategy RPG genre, but also weaves a humorous storyline and plenty of amusing dialogue, poking fun at some of the most successful RPGs, such as Oblivion, Final Fantasy and Lord of the Rings. To protect the kingdom from the merciless cult "The Dark Church" which has murdered all of the kingdom’s heroes and knights, you will have to hire dubious soldiers and rescue jealous maidens who will follow you into combat as your groupies. Up to 10 heroes are deployed in tactical battles to take on the Dark Church with their mysterious special abilities. Features * Turn based tactical battles with humorous animations not seen in any RPG * Distinctive party members such as the arrogant Holy Avatar, the blood thirsty Vampire Solitaire, the sweet but hot-tempered Angel Angelina and many more * Gorgeous village landscapes and dark, sinister dungeons * Scantily dressed maidens to be freed from the grasp of merciless monsters * Enormous, highly detailed and very angry end bosses * Classical RPG elements: quests, treasures, trade, leveling up and out¬fitting a party of unique heroes * Enjoyable multiple choice dialogues and conversation puzzles in the style of classic adventure games, such as Monkey Island or Maniac Mansion *In chess, a Grotesque is a problem or endgame study which features a particularly unlikely initial position, especially one in which White fights with a very small force against a much larger black army. Grotesques are generally intended to be humorous.
Special Forces: Team X	Microprose (Zombie Studios)	2012
Mass Effect	Microsoft Game Studios (BioWare;Demiurge Studios)	2008	Mass Effect is a military science fiction media franchise created by Casey Hudson, Drew Karpyshyn and Preston Watamaniuk. The franchise depicts a distant future where humanity and several alien civilizations have colonized the known universe using technology left behind by advanced precursor civilizations.* [100]* [12]**Latest version: 1.02 (as of ?) Version history: 1.01 (?)*Not as great as I expected, and the driving around in Mako is horrible most of the time as well as the final bit of the ending just makes me feel sickly. My recommendation is, if you want to enjoy this game, stick to the main story and avoid any side exploration/quests completely, and try to bear the last bit of the ending (the parts where humans talk). Replayability comes mostly from dialogs as otherwise the game gets quite dull, and unfortunately you need those dialogs to progress your renegade/paragon ranks to open the more interesting dialog choices since these are separate from your regular leveling and skills.[b]Free expansions:[/b] [url=http://masseffect.bioware.com/galacticcodex/bringdownthesky.html]Bring Down the Sky[/url] [b]Non-free expansions:[/b] * Pinnacle Station (2009-10)*Comes on 2 DVDs but I have no idea what the second DVD is supposed to be for (backup?).[b]technomagic[/b] — the "biotics" used in the game do not really fit into any of the groups we have neatly, technomagic and psionics being the closest, but since the ME universe also has psychics, technomagic is all that there's left. [b]multiple endings[/b] — more like ending with variations; the core of it stays the same. [spoiler=Ending spoiler;Close spoiler]However, a notable difference is that if the alien council survived or not, depending on if you chose to save them. If you didn't, humanity will take charge, otherwise humanity is invited to take place as the fourth council race. Other, "more important", details stay the same regardless.[/spoiler] [b]special agent protagonist[/b] — player is appointed a job similar to this somewhat early in the game, so this isn't true from the start. [b]nationalism[/b] — the protagonist and his higher ups are constantly trying to drive the cause of the Human Alliance, it's importance and how you're part of it is constantly hammered at you and occasionally you get to do the same for others. [b]unlikely sentients[/b] — Rachni, Geth to some degree (in mythos puts them on par with rogue A.I.), the plant creature, and some others [b]dialog-keywords[/b] / [b]dialog-stance[/b] — some are full sentences but not actually what is said, generally these are only choices on what to discuss and [i]how[/i] to respond (aggressively or calm negotiator style)*[b]Minimum:[/b] Windows XP or Vista * 2.4 GHz Intel or 2.0 GHz AMD CPU * 1 GB RAM (XP), 2 GB RAM (Vista) * GPU w/ Shader Model 3.0 * GeForce 6800 or ATI X1300 XT * 12 GB free HD space * 1X DVD-ROM drive [b]Recommended:[/b] * 2.6+ GHz Intel or 2.4+ GHz AMD CPU * 2 GB RAM * ATI X1800 XL or GeForce 7900 GTX or better***US 2008-05-27 EU 2008-06-05

Dark Souls	Namco Bandai (From Software)	2012	Drift bags and vagrants are one of the most obscure mechanics of the game. Drift bags are dropped items that are randomly transported to another player's world where they can be picked up, if they aren't picked up they get transported again. Once the drift bag has been transported enough many times, it turns into a vagrant, a rare enemy that spawns in no other way. Vagrants if undefeated will be transported to other players' worlds much like the drift bags.*The game's story is about the waning Age of Fire which the player can help continue or end, the waning of the age also is the cause of the undead curse when Gwyn kindled the First Flame with his essence. Letting the Age of Fire end would bring about Age of Dark (a.k.a. Age of Humanity), but considering how Dark Souls (a.k.a. human souls) are prone to bad things and generally the world's bleak presentation of humans, this would probably be about as bad thing as the previous age or worse. How bad humans and Dark Souls are or can be is especially shown in Artorias of the Abyss expansion (which is included in the Windows port of the game), though the information gained there can be somewhat misleading. The Abyss appeared because the pygmy went insane, not because it was natural thing to happen with Dark Souls, and the Abyss corrupted Artorias and the Oolacile. Many players seem to assume this is the natural progression for what happens with Dark Souls unfortunately.With a moody and almost grimterror atmosphere and lore that would make even H.P.Lovecraft shiver a little, a simple but very customizable character development and a gameplay that is hard and "unfair", bringing back the "trial and error" progress system of classical arcade games, this game is simply a jewel of RPG-action goodness. Sadly, this version is a poorly done port from the console version, almost forcing to be played by handheld control (keyboard + mouse is horribly designed and also missing keybinding for some actions), and the camera feels clunky, slow and very dependant of player panning/autolock. 8 of 10*Dark Souls is an upcoming action role-playing game from the developers who brought you Demon’s Souls, FromSoftware. Dark Souls will have many familiar features: A dark fantasy universe, tense dungeon crawling, fearsome enemy encounters and unique online interactions. Dark Souls is a spiritual successor to Demon’s, not a sequel. Prepare for a new, despair-inducing world, with a vast, fully-explorable horizon and vertically-oriented landforms. Prepare for a new, mysterious story, centered around the King’s Crowns and the original, now dying flame at the center of the world. But most of all, prepare to die. You will face countless murderous traps, countless darkly grotesque monsters and several gargantuan, supremely powerful demons and dragons. You must learn from death to persist through this unforgiving world. And you aren’t alone. Dark Souls allows the spirits of other players to show up in your world, so you can learn from their deaths and they can learn from yours. New to Dark Souls is Beacon Fire, where you can share the experiences of your adventure with the spirits of other players. Around the Beacon Fire, you may find the only warmth and calm that exists in this dark world. Beware: There is no place in Dark Souls that is truly safe. With days of game play and an even more punishing difficulty level, Dark Souls will be the most deeply challenging game you play this year. Can you live through a million deaths and earn your legacy? [b]New Content[/b] Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition will include an untold chapter in the world of Lordran where the player must stop the spread of darkness at all costs by facing and defeating the Dark Knight Artorias. New Bosses – Including Artorias of Abyss, Chimera of Tomb, and more * PVP Online Matchmaking System – Quick matching for co-op or PVP * New Areas – Including Oolacile Tomb, Old Ruins and more * New Enemies – Including Abyss Guard, Chained Prisoner and more * New NPCs – Including Hawkeye Gough and more * New Weapons and Armor – Equip some from the new bosses, enemies, and NPCs [b]Key features:[/b] * Extremely Deep, Dark & Difficult – Unforgiving in its punishment, yet rewarding for the determined – learn to strategize freely and conquer seemingly impossible challenges. * Fully Seamless World – Explore a completely integrated world of dark fantasy where dungeons are seamlessly intertwined, with great height. * Mastery Earns Progression – Contains 60 hours of gameplay, with nearly 100 uniquely despair‐inducing monsters & an incredibly nuanced weaponry & magic spells system. Player success depends on their eventual mastery of how and when to use the magic spells, choice of armor, the number of weapons, the types of weapons, and the moves attached to the weapons. * Network Play – Players may cross paths with one another, interacting with each other throughout the game even as each player plays their own game. * Flexible Character Development & Role Play – As the player progresses, they must carefully choose which of their character’s abilities to enhance as this will determine their progression style. * Community – See other real players and empathize with their journey, learn from seeing how others died, find and leave messages for your fellow players; helping them or leading them into death. * Symbolic of Life & Hope – The Beacon Fire is an important feature of Dark Souls for many reasons. Though in gameplay it serves as a recovery and re‐spawn point for players whose health gets low and is the one place in the dark world where players can find a fleeting moment of warmth and calm.***[media=youtube]WlVBVKAFFg4[/media]
Dark Souls: Remastered	Namco Bandai (From Software)	2018	Embark upon an epic dark fantasy in a universe stricken by decline and the Curse. Explore its intricate world design - full of hidden passages, dungeons and secrets - and uncover its deeply rooted lore.***Has significant changes to the engine and certain parts of the gameplay. Some features from the sequels were ported over. This however is not redesign of original Dark Souls, so many of the problems of the original are still present. The assumed goal however of this product is to move support to unified game across all current supported platforms and allow players who never played the original to experience it. There's been some severe outcry from PC Dark Souls fans for the remaster not doing "enough".

Duke Nukem Forever	Take-Two Interactive (Gearbox Software;Piranha Games;Triptych Games)	2011	Surfaced now and then between 1997-2010 or so, earning itself the status as the best known vaporware.*Un juego gamberro, soez y de acción y destrucción absurdas. Aunque arrastra algunos elementos metidos a calzador y tiene el grave error de incluir un sistema de escudo nada clásico, simpre es satisfactorio jugar a un juego de acción donde puedes esquivar las balas sin ser El Elegido. Lo mejor las fases de canijo y el multijugador. Aunque no es un mal juego, no está a la altura de su antecesor o del reciente juego 2D protagonizado por el Duke. Eso sí, da para muchas risas. De todas formas: Hail to the king. 6 de 10Contains references to at least the following games: Doom 3 (teleporting to hell remarks, and possibly the dead [doomed] space marine remark when you find Isaac's helmet) * Dead Space (Isaac's helmet) * Halo (Spartan power armor) * Fallout New Vegas (defense of Hoover Dam and how the aliens can tap into it for limitless power or something)**[i]The King is Back![/i] Cocked, loaded and ready for action, Duke delivers epic ass-kicking, massive weapons, giant explosions and pure unadulterated fun! Put on your shades and step into the boots of Duke Nukem. The alien hordes are invading and only Duke can save the world. Pig cops, alien shrink rays and enormous alien bosses can’t stop this epic hero from accomplishing his goal: to save the world, save the babes and to be a bad-ass while doing it. The King arrives with an arsenal of over-the-top weapons, non-stop action, and unprecedented levels of interactivity. With hours and hours of action, and a range of bodacious multiplayer modes, rest assured knowing the fun goes on and on. [b]Story[/b] Did the Alien bastards not learn their lesson the first time? Duke has been on hiatus for some time now, kicking back and franchising himself on the fame he gained from saving Earth from the first invasion. The Aliens have returned to Earth yet again, messing up Duke’s sweet routine of dirty leisure habits. The Alien invaders are stealing Earth’s women, especially the hot ones! And they drank Duke’s beer. This. Won’t. Stand. As Duke battles his way through waves of aliens, the once beautiful gambling haven and Duke Nukem franchise chains are crumbling before his eyes. Time to bring the pain! [b]Features[/b] Bust a Gut: Duke pulls no punches. Duke’s constant stream of hilarious one-liners throughout the game make this an out loud good time. * World Interactivity: Spend as much time as you want shooting hoops, lifting weights, playing pinball, pool, air hockey, and slots. * Scale & Variety: Packed with explosive FPS action, outlandish settings, driving, and puzzle solving — gamers will never tire of the endless FUN. * Multiplayer Like No Other: Classic modes are re-made with a Duke twist. Shrink, squash, freeze and shatter your opponents, or just frag them with a rocket.*[b]2010-09-03[/b] — Take-Two has officially announced DNF to be in development by Gearbox.*[spoiler=Show 2010 gameplay;Hide][media=youtube]5pr3mT2TOo4[/media][/spoiler] [spoiler=Show 2007-12-19 teaser trailer;Hide][media=youtube]cWuteFLUPSY[/media][/spoiler] 3D Realms was closed down in 2009-05 which made future of DNF unclear, but later Take-Two (who held the publishing rights and apparently the IP) announced they're going forward with the project under another developer.

Assassin's Creed II	Ubisoft (Ubisoft Montreal)	2010	Con una gran variedad de misiones secundarias y mucha más exploración, parece mejor que el primer juego. Sin embargo, un Ezio con demasiados cachivaches (o demasiada munición según se mire) y con habilidades de combate demasiado poderosas (como poder bloquear con la hoja oculta) hacen que las misiones se tornen muy asequibles. Además el sigilo no prima tanto como en el primer juego. 7 de 10*Deluxe Edition adds 3 maps: Palazzo Medici, Santa Maria Dei Frari, and the Arsenal Shipyard. Ad speech mentions secret treasures and nothing else. Unknown if this means simply florins or actual equipment.Undefined game-play elements: blending in with the crowd, hiring prostitutes (or others?) to serve as cover (controllable crowd) or to distract those who'd wish you harm.**Continues Desmond Miles' story right where it ended in the first game, even if Altair is no longer his alter ego inside the Animus.

Taking place before the rise of Gotham City’s most dangerous criminals, the game showcases a young and unrefined Batman as he faces a defining moment in his early career as a crime fighter that sets his path to becoming the Dark Knight.Sigue la estela del Arkham City, y el villano no podría ser mejor, sin embargo le falta un toque de libertad de acción frente al anterior que lo convierte en un juego ligeramente inferior.
