| X-COM: Enforcer | Hasbro Interactive (Microprose) | 2001 | Un curioso shoot'em up en 3D que funciona bastante bien, aunque desgraciadamente el único reto real son los monstruos finales de pantalla, ya que las misiones son de lo más simple y los enemigos son poco más que hordas descerebradas con ganas de morir. 5 de 10***[b]teleport[/b] — for the player this is when entering and leaving the levels. Large majority of the enemies arrive by teleporting, usually aided by the alien transmitters, and the professor-thing teleports weapons near you occasionally. [b]autosave points[/b] — saves occur automatically between levels, before and after you've used your data points. Continuing/loading opens up the last mid-level data point spending screen. [-]***If you enjoy slaughtering hundreds upon hundreds of fleshy blood-filled aliens, this is the game for you. Each level requires you to kill hundreds (possibly even thousands in some cases) of those pesky little things, repeatedly in almost neverending swarm that futilely tries to defeat you in turn. If there ever was a third person shooter that comes close to those shmups of old, this is it.***[b]Minimum:[/b] * Windows 95, 98 or ME * 233 MHz Pentium CPU (266 MHz w/ software rendering) * 32 MB RAM * 500 MB HD space * 8X CD-ROM drive * 4 MB VRAM [b]Recommended:[/b] * 400 MHz Pentium CPU * 64 MB RAM * Voodoo, TNT or GeForce GPU | labelimageminimize |

| Half-Life 2: Episode One | Sierra (Valve) | 2006 | Aunque es el más flojo de la pseudotetralogía de HL2, añade algunos retos interesantes y es imprescindible para jugar al genial Episodio 2. Algo breve pero muy interesante. 7 de 10***The story continues in [game=#157905]Episode Two[/game], and should later end with Episode Three when Valve manages to make it. Effectively this is the first part of the stand-alone expansion/sequel Half-Life 2 Episodic trilogy.***Half-Life 2: Episode One is the first in a series of new adventures created by Valve that extend the [game=Half-Life 2]Half-Life 2[/game] single player experience.

Besides that, the concepts and gameplay elements they've invented up are quite refreshing, but don't do much in the light of the bugs that prevent you from enjoying it. After crashing or otherwise exhibiting bugs, it is good idea to exit the game and delete Alone_Data_DFE folder and possibly drm_dyndata_*.dll file in the system temp folder. Removing these seems to at least temporarily fix any bugging, until Eden Games releases a patch for the issues.***EU 2008-06-20 NA 2008-06-24 RU 2008-06-?? by Akella (possibly only distribution) | labelimagesubject |
| Left 4 Dead | Valve;EA Partners (Valve South) | 2008 | A medio camino entre una remodelación del mod de zombies del Counter-Strike y un juego de supervivencia cooperativa aparece el Left 4 Dead, cuya mayor virtud sin duda alguna es que la verdadera competición es supervivientes contra zombies especiales, siendo en realidad un cooperativo en modo versus. También es de lo más interesante la IA de los zombies genéricos y sus diversas reacciones frente a la luz, el sonido etc... 6 de 10.***[b]Named updates/patches[/b]: (called DLC for some strange reason) * Survival Pack (2009-04-21) * Crash Course (2009-09-29)***For 1-8 players, 2-8 in versus, 1-4 in other modes.***[b]bleeding[/b] - border case as this only occurs when a player gets incapacitated and waits for someone to assist them.
