X-COM: UFO Defense	Hasbro Interactive (Mythos Games)	1999	A very simple port of UFO Defense to Windows with no improvements or changes what-so-ever, just that it runs natively on Windows XP (and doesn't even do that very well). Released only as part of X-COM: Collector's Edition and for a time was available on Steam until they switched to running the old DOS version under DOSBox (around 2008-10-06).
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.
Dungeon Siege	Microsoft (Gas Powered Games)	2002	You begin as a humble farmer, and as you travel through the world and gain new skills, you can gather a party of up to eight characters to aid you. Dungeon Siege impels the player into one over-the-top battle after the other as the storyline unfolds and a larger plot begins to reveal itself. A world of adventure where you can explore sprawling landscapes in a seamlessly unfolding story awaits...Your adventures take place in the Kingdom of Ehb is one of the youngest states bordering the Plain of Tears. Protected by a ring of superb fortifications and heir to the 10th Legion-arguably one of the best trained armies in the world, the Kingdom of Ehb has, so far, been shielded from the raids and invasions that have devastated many of its neighboring states on the Plain.Within Ehb's borders, there is an astonishing diversity in geography and cultures. Most inhabitants worship Azunai, an ancient god of the pre-Imperial Agallan Peaks. Dwarves and men live together in harmony and bow to the same king. Sorcerers are also more accepted than in other countries, thanks in large part to the efforts of Merik, Grand Mage and Warden of Shadows of the 10th Legion. And in the heart of the kingdom, a strange and often contrary race called the Droog is allowed a degree of autonomy, despite its sometimes-troublesome alliances.It is a country in search of an identity, caught between the glories of a fallen past and the potential for an even greater future. Despite several crises, Ehb has never fallen to an enemy. But at any time the course of events could turn down a bleaker path.***Latest version: 1.11.1462 (as of 2002-07)

Gothic 2	JoWood Productions (Piranha Bytes)	2002	You have torn down the magical barrier and released the prisoners of the Mine Valley. Now the former criminals of the forests and mountains are causing trouble around the capital of Khorinis. The town militia is powerless due to their low amount of force–outside of the town, everyone is helpless against the attacks of the bandits.***Re-released together with the Night of the Raven expansion on 2005-11-29 as [i]Gothic 2 Gold Edition[/i].
Gothic 2: The Night of the Raven	JoWooD Productions (Piranha Bytes)	2003	"When you're in need of something and don't know where to find it, go to Khorinis. There you can surely buy it." -- Saying (author unknown) The mine valley of Khorinis. The glorious days of the once productive mines in this small seaside region were long over. Surrounded by the impenetrable magical barrier, the slaves eked out their miserable existence in this apparently natural prison. One brave man managed to burst the bonds of imprisonment. Following his own call to freedom, he ventured deep into the subterranean temples. Willing to do whatever was necessary, he went out to banish Evil and destroy the magical barrier forever. Spurred by the hatred of men long-suppressed, the prisoners streamed trough the only pass to freedom. No one in Khorinis had been prepared for this. Too long had they lived under the deceptive notion of security granted by the apparently indestructible magical dome. The small militia garrison could not put up enough forces against the onrush. After numerous bloody clashes, many captives escaped and found safety in the woods or rugged mountains of the surrounding countryside. The steadily escalating number of raids in the vicinity of the town wall and the bandits' ever-increasing boldness seemed to paralyze the whole town. Angered by the militia's inability to protect their farms, some of the farmers formed an alliance with the refugees, no longer willing to pay allegiance to the king. Khorinis is facing an uncertain future. Due to the farmers' decreasing production, more and more of the food deliveries do not take place, and the stocks diminish continuously. The militia's might ends at the town gate. Outside the town wall, nobody is safe from the bandits' armed raids. There is war in Khorinis. A civil war. But there is something else that could not be foreseen. Evil is not dead, rearing its ugly head again. But this time it is set on delivering the deathblow to humanity, and no one can stop it. No one?*Adds one more area to the game as well as re-balances the gameplay otherwise. Pretty much like a huge patch.*English version was released as part of the Gothic 2 Gold combined re-release (2005-11-29), never sold in English separately.

Based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and set in 'The 4th Age'. The developers have endeavored to portray Tolkien world as accurately as possible even to the point of implementing permanent death. However NPC and monster will almost never kill a player and player killers will suffer great consequences. Choice of race determines where a player starts in the game. Though not to full scale, the game world is huge and has countless dangers in between settlements. Races will be likely remain separated except for certain communities between them and rare fellowships that travel great distances, like the books. Vivendi Universal Games and Turbin were developing Middle Earth Online for Sierra On-Line. Vivendi left the project. Sierra On-Line formed their Yosemite Entertainment division and transfered all their experienced artists to it. Sierra then had Yosemite Entertainment fire all its employees. Codemasters hired nearly all of Yosemite Entertainment's former employees. Turbin made a deal with Midway and Codemasters to publish this game. And finally, the name was changed. [Zerothis]

The Witcher	Atari;CD Projekt (CD Projekt RED)	2007	Andrzej Sapkowski, the creator of the Witcher universe, stated that he would not play the game since he has no interest in video games in general. However, he praised the game's opening cinematic, which (partially) tells the story of Sapkowski's very first short story, called simply Witcher (Wiedźmin). The Polish version of the game also comes with this short story.*The original (Polish) version of the game features some allusions to the Polish national-conservative party Law and Justice (Polish: Prawo i Sprawiedliwość). The party's name is mentioned by NPCs in the game in connection with corruption and discrimination against non-humans. Also at some point Geralt may dismiss an NPC saying "Spieprzaj, dziadu!" (approximately "Piss off, old man!"). The cofounder of Law and Justice and president (at the time the game was released) of Poland Lech Kaczyński once famously said those words to a heckler.Un juego curioso, ya que su manejo e historía son de corte clásico (control en combate "por turnos", inventario complejo e historia de decisiones vinculantes) Algo complejo de manejar de primeras, pero de todas formas una gran adaptación de las novelas del Tolkien del este. 8 de 10Latest version: 1.5.0.1304 (as of 2009-07-31) There's also a separate patch ("[url=http://www.thewitcher.com/community/en/news/920.html]Director's Cut[/url]") that restores the North American version to the same uncensored level that the original European release is.

This shows only a very scantily clad art piece of the person and nothing else, so it isn't really that explicit even. More like extremely suggestive. The art pieces were re-touched to make them more modest (such as bare breasts being covered). The dryad NPC was made to have more cover as well in-game (the dryad is fully nude in European releases, though the textures are blurry and don't show any great detail). The Enhanced Edition is available for free as downloadable update for the owners of the original, although it is worth 909 MB of data so expect it to take a while.**The Witcher represents the pinnacle of storytelling in role-playing games, shattering the line between good and evil with a world where moral ambiguity reigns. In a beautiful, rich game universe created by artists first, technology second, the player becomes his own hero in an epic, action-packed narrative uniquely defined by his actions. Returning to the roots of the role-playing genre with a fresh and modern approach, The Witcher emphasizes story and character development in a vibrant world, while incorporating tactically-deep real-time combat like no game before it. Immersed in a vivid but harsh fantasy world, the player assumes the role of a white-haired witcher named Geralt, a renowned monster-slayer-for-hire and master swordsman with superhuman strength and reflexes. While trying to regain his lost memory, Geralt unwillingly becomes involved in a world-shaking power struggle. Created to provide entertainment for both fans of role-playing games and those seeking fast-paced action, The Witcher brings together epic storytelling and dynamic, visually stunning, and tactically deep action.

[Atari]**The Game „The Witcher" returns to the tradition of the role-playing genre with a fresh and modern approach, emphasizing story and character development in a vibrant world, while incorporating spectacular and well developed combat system like no game before it.

What if people from the future are playing with us; making us do the things to make the future world a ‘better place' - what is a ‘better place' anyway? Should History ever be changed, even the most traumatic times? Doesn't History shape who we are? Gameplay In Darkest of Days, you get to experience some of the most varied gameplay ever released in one title. Things will never get stale as you travel to distant times, and fight alongside people from that time period. Fighting in Antietam (the bloodiest day of the American Civil War) feels much different than fighting on the side of the Russians at Tannenberg (where the Russians withstood 140,000 casualties in WW I). Fight In FIVE Distinct Different Time Periods Whether its in Pompeii, Antietam, WW I, or two other unannounced time periods, you will fight with weapons of the time period. You will fight against enemies that fight in different ways, all reflective of how fighting was done at that time. * Participate In EPIC Battle Scenes . .* You will fight against the Confederates (and the Union at times), facing a staggering number of troops, all fighting in unison. Ready, aim . . . steady men . . . FIRE! . .* You will jump from the trenches in WW I to lead an attack against the Huns. You will man artillery to hit distant targets. You will defend to the last man! . .* You will Fight in Pompeii, while Mt. Vesuvius is spewing ash and fire into the atmosphere. You will fight amongst a frightened population, fleeing for their lives. * Play From Opposing Sides Of Conflicts Nearly every time-period offers game-play from each side of the conflict. In trying to keep History pure, you have to undo mistakes you make, which may require fighting from the other perspective to ‘mend'. * Unleash Hell With Futuristic Weaponry What could you have done with a automatic rifle during the Civil War, or some futuristic laser sighted pulse cannon in the Trenches of WW I? There are times where you have no other choice but to bust out the big guns. [Phantom EFX]

Shoot Many Robots	Ubisoft (Demiurge Studios)	2012	A 4-player co-op run-n-gun action shooter throws you into a tidal wave of degenerate robots with an array of weaponry that would make any shooter enthusiast proud. Players take control of P. Walter Tugnut (The "P" stands for "Pickles"), a hillbilly who stockpiles guns, ammo, and beer in his dilapidated RV awaiting the inevitable robot apocalypse. When the abandoned factory in the distance begins producing robots on its own, Walter sets off in his RV on a robot-killing rampage, hoping to save humanity from an onslaught of robot hordes. Key Features: * Run-n-Gun A classic 2.5D side-scrolling shooter, revitalized with modern game design. * 4-Player Co-op Four players online and up to two players locally can work together to take down the robot armies. * Character Customization Players can equip Walter with countless combinations of crazy items to tailor to their play style. Players also level up and gain XP by killing robots, boosting Walter’s stats, as well as unlocking new missions and equipment. * Missions Push forward through robot territory in Run-n-Gun missions – huge levels that end in epic robot boss battles. Hunker down in Survival missions – claustrophobic levels where the only object is to outlast waves of robot hordes. For the truly hardcore, there are three difficulty modes to keep players hurting. * Diversified Combat Take two weapons with you into battle – but it's going to be a tough choice. Revolvers, rocket launchers, assault rifles, flamethrowers, SMGs, and shotguns all beg to be used, not to mention the freeze ray, gnome launcher, and a cat carrier that shoots an exploding robot decoy. With melee combat, players can (and should) punch robots to knock them back and inflict damage. Rockets shot by robots can also be punched, if timed correctly, back into their metal faces. * Nut Up, Gear Up, Power Up Nuts are dropped by robots when they are killed, and are used to buy new weapons and gear. Robots occasionally drop power-ups that temporarily grant superhuman powers. These power-ups can turn the tide and reward players for high combos. * Robots with Personality Numerous robots – from tiny chainsaw-wielding Choppers to gigantic fire-spewing Fatboys – all have unique personalities, AI, and unique ways to kill, with even fiercer models appearing as the difficulty ramps up. There are zillions of robots to murder.

The Bureau: XCOM Declassified	2K Games (2K Marin)	2013	Aunque de primeras parece un shooter del montón, lo que le convierte en un buen juego es el control y manejo de tu escuadra, donde es importante saber cómo moverlos y de que habilidades disponen, convirtiéndolo en un juego de acción a tiempo real pero con momentos de planificación, a medio camino entre los X-COM clásicos y un Rainbow Six. 7 de 10*The year is 1962 and the Cold War has the nation gripped by fear. A top-secret government unit called The Bureau begins investigating a series of mysterious attacks by an enemy more powerful than communism. As agent Carter, call the shots, pull the trigger and lead your squad in a gripping third-person tactical shooter set within a covert war to protect humanity from an otherworldly enemy.*The plot has a tragic logical fallacy about the Bureau performing a complete erasing of the truth of what happened, except the invasion was global and they had no control over what happened in other countries and the amount of secrecy they held over the event (likely poor/none in several), yet it's said no evidence of the invasion was left to the public.
