Tomb Raider III: Adventures of Lara Croft  Eidos (Core Design)1998Aunque su mayor enfoque en la acción es un acierto, la exigencia de puzzles, plataformas y especialmente las inefables trampas lo convierten en un juego excesivamente duro de jugar, teniendo que guardar a cada paso por si las moscas.

5 de 10***Lara's adventures start in India, while she's searching for the Infada Stone, a local legendary artifact, located in the ruins of an ancient temple in the Jungle. While following Ganges and after having found the artifact she meets Dr.Willard, a Scottish scientist who appears to be quite friendly. He tells her that the Infada Stone is one of the four artifacts that were made of an ancient meteorite and hires her to find the rest three. The four artifacts are:The Infada Stone,The Element 115,The Ora Dagger and The Eye of Isis.

As we can see in the opening FMV, the meteorite was discovered by some British sailors who saw the four artifacts placed with it. The only survivor sold all the artifacts when he returned to England. Willard needs the material of the artifacts to do some experiments.

After Lara has found all four artifacts, she heads to Antarctica, where Willard is doing his research. The plot thickens when Lara discovers that the material of the artifacts may have bad consequences in evolution, when tested on humans. Willard steals her artifacts and a man chase begins.

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! Race through London’s streets in seven flashy cars, including the Koenigsegg CC. The "London Challenge" competition is your chance to be the top cabbie. Try to find shortcuts and get bonuses for jumping, boosting, and blasting your way. Challenge your friends to a multiplayer match. London is full of surprises...ever given a ride to an alien before? labelimagesubject

Taxi 3: Extreme Rush Xing Interactive;Fusion Software (Team6 Game Studios)2005There are no blackcabs or other taxis present in this game any more.. The player can select one of the 10 exotic sportscars (ranging from american musclecars to hot Japanese streetracers to classic italian avant-garde designs) and agressively race against competitors meanwhile surviving the chasing copcars (equiped with loads of heavy weapons) and even a police helicopter.

The best feature of "storymodus" (where the entire range of gamemodi is put in) is that it can be played in cooperation modus.
This means that if you and your friend both have an internet connection, you can combine your skills and play the entire story-mode together as a team. Beat the cops together, win races together and help each other to make it to the next level. Cooperation modus has been underestimated far too long now, it''s time to re-introduce it!

We Happy Few Compulsion Games2016We Happy Few is the tale of a plucky bunch of moderately terrible people trying to escape from a lifetime of cheerful denial in the city of Wellington Wells. In this alternative 1960s England, conformity is key. You’ll have to fight or blend in with the drug-addled inhabitants, most of whom don’t take kindly to people who won’t abide by their not-so-normal rules.

Discover the retrofuturistic city’s dark history as you play through the intertwined narratives of three quietly rebellious citizens of Wellington Wells, each with their own strengths and weaknesses, as they face their pasts, prepare for the future, and engage in activities that aren’t exactly status quo in the artificially enthused society.


Retrofuturistic 1960s England
Set in retrofuturistic 1960s England, you will find a city ravaged by war and rebuilt by delusionally happy people. Everything appears joyful in Wellington Wells, including its roads, its people, and its omnipresent television personality: Uncle Jack! But, it’s actually a world on the brink of collapse. Come unveil its dark history, and discover how and why its residents came to be so beguilingly happy.

Three Interwoven Narratives
Play as three flawed characters who explore their own connections to the events surrounding the rebuilding of Wellington Wells. They each have a unique storyline in which they interpret and react to the events around them in different ways. As you hide, conform, or fight back as each of them, you will encounter dark humour, a spot of hope, and even some redemption along the way.

A Dystopia of Your Very Own
In We Happy Few, no two playthroughs are alike. While the citizens of Wellington Wells will always want to ensure that you’ve taken your Joy, the procedurally generated world will ensure that your experience with We Happy Few is different and unique. Wellington Wells is never quite like you remember it.

Take Your Joy...or Don’t. The Choice is Yours
Customize your We Happy Few experience:
• Choose from a range of difficulties for new and experienced players alike,
• Masochistic? Try permadeath!,
• Collect recipes, scavenge items, and craft dozens of weapons, tools, and devices,
• Creep, crush, or conform your way through puzzles and encounters, and
• Fight with the crazy weapons you can craft, or fight with your bare hands and don’t kill anyone!***
