One of the first games I ever played, and a damn good one. By todays standards it wouldn't be all that, but the atmosphere of old sim games is delicious and Heavy Gear 1 is no exception. Built off the foundation of Activisions' Mechwarrior 2 engine, this game has a lot of its own flair and flavour to differentiate it. FMV cutscenes for plot and some pretty decent voice acting compared to today's efforts. With some tweaking of controls this one is a must-play for mech sim enthusiasts. This should be on GOG as the community repacks, while awesome (thanks mr wholesome) aren't the same as a re-release for modern systems. Please Mr GOG Santa, make this happen!
Found it unexpectedly at a Sam's Club back in the 90s and was immediately hooked. It was my favorite game at the time and still one of my top games. I'd also like to see its sequel added as well. Give it the Dino Crisis 1+2 treatment and give us a Heavy Gear 1+2 release please!
Love this mech game. Much like mechwarrior and battletech. Build your own mechs. Customize load outs and missions are great challenges. Squad of gears. I played both 1 and 2. Both titles are great mech games, I have been looking for both 1 and 2.
This was a great counter-point to the combat in other popular mech games of the time like Mechwarrior 2 and Earthsiege. Gears (the mechs in this game line) are much smaller, and can move more quickly due to a wheeled secondary movement system. The game featured live-action cut scenes that focused on the North vs. South factions of Terra Nova, as well as a challenging campaign. This game, to my memory, stayed pretty close to the setting established by the publisher of the tabletop game, Dream Pod 9. Dream Pod 9, by the way, almost lost the license to their own game due to the predatory wording of the deal they had with Activision.
This was a precious birthday gift. My friends and I played this for hours every day. It would be interesting to play a deep and intricate mech game with an adult brain. Childhood was basically build a slow artillery platform and fire all as soon as I saw something.

Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.Top Trending Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox
