I am one of three, maybe four people on planet Earth who have completed this game, and it is a burden I can no longer carry on my own. The teddy bear backpack, the incredible voice acting, the most spelling errors in a single shipped game, the LASER HALLWAY... Please, I beg of you, unleash this beast upon the world so that I may share my suffering with the rest of humanity.
This was one of the worst games I've ever played, with almost no redeeming features at all. Despite, or perhaps because of that, I found it thoroughly enjoyable. Look at the bear! Look! It's so cute!
Another one of the games I haven't played just because game journalists at the time said it's bad. I'd like to check it out myself though. So, it'll be nice to have it here.
An amazing example of amazing character design and terrible game design. I couldn't finish this game when it came out, but I remember the characters. A lot of the character abilities were awkward to use, but the shooting and jumping were cool. And the bear giggled!
There's nowhere else to buy it, all hope is in GOG.
I tried to install it and Starforce DRM corrupted my Windows 10 image, as it is so often known to do. It hurt me somewhat, but it inspired me to be more careful in the future. I would like to actually be able to play it someday.
Fallout 3Fallout 3 from the creators of the award-winning Oblivion, featuring one of the most realized game worlds ever created. Create any kind of character you want and explore the open wastes of post-apocalyptic Washington D.C. Every minute is a fight for survival as you encounter Super Mutants, Ghouls, Raiders and other dangers of the Wasteland. Prepare for the future.
The third game in the Fallout series, Fallout 3 is a singleplayer action role-playing game (RPG) set in a post-apocalyptic Washington DC. Combining the horrific insanity of the Cold War era theory of mutually assured destruction gone terribly wrong, with the kitschy naivety of American 1950s nuclear propaganda, Fallout 3 will satisfy both players familiar with the popular first two games in its series as well as those coming to the franchise for the first time.Open world Action Science fiction Stealth Sandbox Survival
King's KnightKing's Knight is a fantasy-themed top-down shooter where four heroes have to unite to defeat a dragon and rescue a princess in despair. It was one of the first games published by Square Soft (now one-half of Square Enix). King's Knight is a variation on Konami's Knightmare which sold extremely well.
The first four stages involve you powering up your characters as far as they can go, picking up shields (to increase defense), boots (to increase speed), swords (to increase attack power), and spell icons (which will be required to be held by everyone for the final storm on the castle), defeating monsters along the way. The power-ups are hidden underneath mountains, rocks, and houses. Nearly everything can be shot at and destroyed. The heroes are, in order:
Ray Jack, the Knight, who possesses strong attacking power; Kaliva, the Wizard, who is good with magic and jumping; Barusa, the Monster, who has a strong defense; and Toby, the Thief, who can move swiftly.
It is necessary to keep all four heroes alive for the fifth and final stage, because there are certain points that the group cannot get past if one of the party members has died.Action Fantasy Historical
