It's a WWII themed FPS game, but it's not as realistic as say CoD. It has realistic textures, but the movements are Quake 3 style and it's also very fast paced like Quake 3. It's one of the best game out there in my opinion. The combination of a realistic theme with an unrealistic gameplay is just awesome. Try it out for yourself, you'll get hooked.
]]> 27 Nov 2006 04:18:18 Seiklus This is an strange endearing relaxing game. All about exploring the world.

It has many nice touches that come out if you take the time to play. Shows how much simple things and bare bones gameplay can still add up to an enjoyable experience.

The environments are strange and unexpected.. Might be a bit challenging for some and frustrating at times, but I enjoyed it overall.

This was made by a single guy using GameMaker, and given away for free! See developer's links below for more info

Well, when I make any game, I make
a game that Id like to see made by someone
else; like partly as just an effort to inspire other people to make little games. I know a lot of people who are really talented, or who have some ambition, but they dont do anything, because they just think they cant....

That's about to change though, as proprietor Ma Jackson has announced she's planning on retiring. Her dilemma is who to leave the company to... Ma has four very different kids and choosing a successor should be done fair and square. The solution is simple: Ma's going to hold a "trial by trucking!" The one who can make the most money buying, selling and hauling cargo around the County in sixty days will inherit the company when Ma retires. Can you truck 'n' trade your way to the top? There may be some sibling rivalry along the way (not to mention obstacles of other types...), but as Ma always says, "When it comes to business, family don't mean squat!"

]]> 02 Feb 2007 12:37:18 Anarchy Anarchy has broken out on the planet Sentinel 4 and rebels have taken over.

You have been chosen for a mission: break into the rebels' ammunition depot and destroy the entire supply, thus dealing a crushing blow to the rebellion. You have been given an ACE Mk.2 Interceptor tank with which to carry out your mission.

Playing the Game

Shoot the "red boxes of ammo" and the "red pyramid warheads" for points.

You can only fire in the direction you are facing, and if there isn't a space between you and the ammo or warhead, there is no space to turn. Find a way of positioning yourself so that you can face them - they are all possible, but some may be puzzling.

Destroy them all and a beacon will appear showing where to place your tank to be beamed to the next ammo-dump in the complex.

The rebels are trying to destroy you before you accomplish your mission, with their orbital laser, but your jamming device can keep them from getting a lock for a while.

Keep an eye on the timer, when it runs out the jammer will fail, and the laser will be able to destroy you.

There are security droids and enemy tanks in the complex, which will try and tag you with and electronic marker - if you are touched and marked, the laser will be able to lock on despite your jamming-device!

Extra lives are awarded every 50,000 points.

This version (like the original game) has 16 levels. The original crashed after level 16, and didn't have an end sequence, the remake will take you back to level 1 to rack up a higher score.

The top five scores are saved to disk, along with the level reached.

Controls

Cursor Keys or joy-pad to move the tank.
Control-Key or Fire Button 1 to shoot

"P" to pause the game

The game is full screen by default, but if you wish to play it in a window then use the switch "/window" on the command line.

]]> 02 Feb 2007 09:13:06 F-ZERO GX Nintendo and SEGA -- both accomplished masters of high-speed fun -- have collaborated to create the fastest, most visually stunning racing game ever. F-Zero GX is the race to end all races, as fearless pilots risk everything to claim the title of the top speedster in the universe.

In Grand Prix mode, you select from four cups of five races each. Each course pits you against 29 opponents in a three-lap race. Points are tallied at the end of a cup circuit to determine the winner. Vs. Battle allows two, three or four players to compete in a split-screen race on any unlocked course with any unlocked machines. Even when playing with four players, the action blazes by without a hitch.

Choose Time Attack mode to pit yourself against the best time and top speed for each course. If you save your ghost data to a Memory Card, you can race against a transparent re-enactment of your best run.

Bottom Line

F-Zero GX is the ultimate racer for speed freaks. A galaxy's worth of unlockable content provides ample replay value. Exclusively available for Nintendo GameCube, F-Zero GX is any speed demon's dream come true!

They are a feared yet unknown group, a faceless arm of justice masked in a cloud of secrets. They are his merciless force of silent assassins.

]]> 03 Feb 2007 02:39:39 1080 Avalanche Danger is the name of the game in 1080 Avalanche. Huge air, massive drop-offs, deep powder, and the nastiest tricks come together in one of tightest snowboarding games available. 1080 Avalanche is a worthy successor to the Nintendo 64 version of the game, with a wide variety of play modes, challenges, and secrets to keep you on your toes (or heels, if you're turning the other way).

1080 Avalanche is teeming with challenges. In Match Race mode, your goal is to beat an opponent to the bottom of the mountain in a variety of difficulty levels. Stick tricks on the way down to increase your rider's speed and power. There are multiple routes to find on each run, so be sure to scour the landscape for grindable trees and hidden shortcuts.

One of the best things about 1080 Avalanche is the element of surprise. Huge drop-offs can easily catch you off-guard, and if you don't land just right you're toast. Rockslides, natural wildlife, dizzying drops, and sudden weather changes keep things interesting, but nothing compares to the incredible avalanche sequences which will definitely get your heart racing.

1080 Avalanche is an awesome snowboarding game. The runs are designed perfectly, and there is a wide variety of tasks to complete before you unlock everything in the game. It's been over five years since the last 1080 became the first-ever 3D snowboarding game, and 1080 Avalanche proves that it's been worth the wait!

]]> 03 Feb 2007 04:27:44 Impossaball Dare you face the corridors of death?

Avoid spikes, and spines and deadly cubes, while crushing all the cylinders contained in each level. When you have destroyed all the cylinders the exit will become open and you can cross the exit to the next corridor.

Score points for distance travelled, and cylinders crushed.

Watch your time, if it runs out then your game is over. More time can be acquired by pressing down the "Green Timer Disks", but beware: Once you touch them and take the prize, they will become "Red Disks of Death" and cannot be touched again.

Extra lives are awarded every 10,000 points.

The original Spectrum game contained eight corridors, who knows what challenging courses could have been built since then!

If you complete all the corridors, you will be returned to the first, but each time you loop around the level set, the time allowed will be reduced.

The top five scores are saved to disk... How high can you score? How far can you get?

]]> 04 Feb 2007 11:14:42 Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy The game is powered by the same version of the Quake III engine used in its predecessor, Jedi Outcast, containing modifications to the Quake code to give a third-person view and new lightsaber effects.(Jedi Knight II had these 3rd person effects as well). Players have the ability to construct their own lightsaber by choosing the hilt style and blade color. After completing certain objectives, new saber styles become available including the ability to wield two independent sabers.
Players take the role of Jaden Korr, a new student recently arriving at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on Yavin IV. Jaden, along with fellow initiate Rosh Penin, becomes an apprentice to Kyle Katarn (the protagonist of Jedi Knight) at the beginning of the game. As a Jedi Apprentice, the player is dispatched to accompany Kyle on various peace-keeping missions across the galaxy, many of which involve battling an emerging Sith cult known as the Disciples of Ragnos who are stealing Force energy from Force-rich locations across the galaxy.

]]> 10 Feb 2007 07:18:14 Slouching Towards Bedlam Enter a steampunk adventure set in a London that might have been. The year is 1885. Bedlam Hospital still stands in Moorsfield, a decaying shell used to house the poor and the hopeless. Steam-driven mechanical wonders roam the streets. Gear-wheeled analytical engines spin out reams of thought onto punched paper tapes.

And in the darkness - in the alleys and the side shops - hide secrets.
]]> 11 Feb 2007 12:49:30 Escape from Orion: The Next Generation This a remake of the early BBC Micro game Escape from Orion, which was a simple platform game owing a considerable debt to Donkey Kong. It consists of 4 single-screen levels with a different key feature on each. Even in BBC Micro terms it was early and simplistic, so don't expect too much from it.

The game was made in GameMaker, for the 2003 Retro Remakes Competition.
]]> 16 Feb 2007 07:33:41 Lords of Midnight for PalmOS The original Lords of Midnight was released in 1984 for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, written by Mike Singleton. It is a highly atmospheric turn-based fantasy wargame, with an unusual first-person perspective.

The game owes a heavy debt to The Lord of the Rings, and also features a quest mode. One of its most interesting features is the recruitment of other playable Lords.

The original game still has many fans to this day.

This PalmOS version is intended to be a straight port, with minimal changes to support stylus control. In its current state it is playable, but has a few bugs and missing features. It has been in development a long time, and is pretty messy, so it might never get completely finished.

Prologue Story
LuckyLupinLiman Studios

"We, the Musahsina beings - Masters of the elements, protectors of the world.
No evil dwells deep within us."

"The humans are becoming aware of their existence. These people are not like us.
Their souls twistable to their personal dark desires.
Their souls susceptible to the torments of their world."

"The apex of our control; the forms of Light and Dark magic.
Sealed within our most treasured relic."

"The Spiritbound Gem, in our hands can do nothing but good.
It grants us our livelihood. Our own creation."

"We have spread to the farthest corners of Essina, our Spiritbound gem locked away.
We are but Wise people in a disturbing world of men.
The few that survived the corrupting of the gem are in hiding.
Wherever they can hide from prying eyes."

"We know not what happens in the world today; nothing but humans being dominant.
I fear if we expose ourselves to them, our very nature will change. Maybe even destroyed."
