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.
Found this in a bargain bin in a Co-Op supermarket clearance, England 1999. This game started what would become a life long love-affair with Mecha, and spoiled me to expect "real" well thought out robots ever more, sadly slightly poisoning me against Gundam forevermore.
If it's done something Similar to you I implore you to check out "VOTOMs", apparently that show inspired the Canadian devs of this game.
The SIM nature of this first game was always preferable to me over the action nature of the second, but both are wonderful.
Despite STILL owning this game physically, it is incredibly difficult to get running properly on modern hardware and has some nasty game crash bugs in the campaign even on original hardware (so I never got to COMPLETE the campaign, instead putting hundreds of hours into the "freeplay" mode playing as the "badguys") Therefore a restoration of it from the GOG team would certainly make my decade!! I'd love to attempt the PVP online mode, which was incredible difficult to set up back on dial-up.
My first computer was a Compaq Presario CDS 526 AIO Windows 3.1... my first pc love lol... it was good, but it didn't run all the amazing games that came out at the time. After I managed to build a better one, one of the games I loved the most was Heavy Gear.
Even though I didn't understand English at all, the game was intuitive for me, and I had countless hours of joy.
Then Heavy Gear 2 was released, and later ones in Brazilian Portuguese... so my love for both games lasts to this day.
Please put Heavy Gear 1 and 2 on GOG! A legion of fans like me will be eternally grateful =)

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 Action Fantasy Comedy Sandbox

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
