- Comment on My best score in Uplink yet, what's yours? 6 months ago:
Back when Ambrosia made Mac ports. DEFCON was cool.
- Comment on Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Official Announce Trailer 6 months ago:
I level grinded so much in the first. Getting loot was so fun.
- Comment on The sequel to Kingdom Come Deliverance will be revealed April 18th! 6 months ago:
I loved this game. I grinded for hours and got tons of cash and nice equipment then I reached the point in the game where I think you can finally ride a horse and stopped playing. I should pick this up again. I think I got my save game backed up somewhere, but at this point I’d probably want to start again because I forgot much of the story Lol

Possible post by a bot account?

Haha the name. Sorry had to say it.

This is so cool. An oldie but goodie is back! Glad they figured a way to separate the copyright from the trademark. So many good titles get lost in limbo over ownership.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion 8 months ago:
Cool didn’t know there was a sequel or spinoff. Thanks for the heads up!
- Comment on Donkey Kong Country - Game Over screen 8 months ago:
Facepalm. Stay classy DK. :)
- Comment on Have video games become expensive now? 8 months ago:
Yeah I remember Donkey Kong Country cost like $60 back in 1994 when it first released. That’s like $100 today adjusted for inflation. Nowadays DLC, the cloud, hardware and the like adds to it, although hardware has always been pricey to an extent.
- Comment on Whatever Happened to SimCity? 8 months ago:
Two words, nuclear meltdown. Seriously though, city building games do still exist, although often the gameplay is part of a wider genre like 4X, kinda like stealth mechanics in action adventure games.
- Comment on Silent Hill 2's latest trailer "does not reflect the spirit of the game", Bloober Team president says 8 months ago:
“the video for which appears to have been taken offline”
Geez so many remakes. Hopefully they got constructive feedback. LOL 😱
- Comment on My most memorable NES games 8 months ago:
Dragon Quest for sure! Short but sweet. The sequels are longer. The final boss on Dragon Quest 5 was tough. Super Famicom great 90’s game.
- Comment on I miss the trend of games insulting you for quitting 8 months ago:
Max Payne “I was too tired to go on.” or “I was afraid to go on.”
Game over screens too like Arkham City with the villain mocking Batman. System Shock with the hopeless death animation. Sometimes the deaths can get elaborate and repetitive though like some horror games.
- Comment on Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch? 8 months ago:
Absolutely loved STALKER. Heart of Chornobyl comes out this year.
- Comment on Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch? 8 months ago:
You should play / replay Splinter Cell. Espionage, stealth action, some techy tools. Really would like to see this series or something like it return.
There’s also Metal Gear and Shadowrun.
- Comment on New Crazy Taxi Game Will Be Live Service with a '100-Person Survival Mode' 8 months ago:
Maybe let players form taxi teams and get into fights with rival ride hailing companies? Lol Could be entertaining.
100 simultaneous players seems like a lot for a game designed to be played in short bursts?
- Comment on The upcoming Crazy Taxi reboot is a triple-A game, according to Sega 8 months ago:
Deus Ex, Doom, Mortal Kombat, Mario, Need For Speed, Sonic The Hedgehog, Tomb Raider etc. all have had AAA reboots and not always following the same formula as the originals. AAA game design tends to be driven by the latest trends and technology, reboots included. This isn’t to say all AAA reboots fail, many do not because of brand loyalty and high expectations.
- Comment on The upcoming Crazy Taxi reboot is a triple-A game, according to Sega 8 months ago:
AAA means reinvent the wheel. Too bad, but not surprising. Younger gamers can’t possibly like old games? Crazy taxi was an arcade game so we can only hope they don’t veer the taxi off a cliff (or do veer off a cliff like Crazy Taxi should do).
