Vote to bring this game to GOG and help preserve it.13 202
Noooooo. I want to vote for this, but why textures? Why not use the texture pack from the matrix mystique version? Or just smear random crap over the polygons? If you’re going to release MW2, the best version is the OG dos version
This needs to be remastered as the original titanium trilogy was a buggy mess. I remember the water level where the doors would not open making the mission unwinnable or mercs drop ship in the clan mission would not spawn making you lose instantly.
It shouldnt be that hard to get the license now as Microsoft now owns Activision.
I remember playing this game with friends, swapping back and forth between playing missions, and then tinkering with the mech loadouts to try to get through the tough ones. The graphics might be a bit dated, but the way the mechs felt to move- heavy and unwieldy- was really evocative. Lots of fun!
This was one of the first games I remember playing on a near daily basis as a kid on MS-DOS. It was truly revolutionary for the time when 3D graphics were still relatively new, not to mention it felt mandatory to play on a joystick. I still listen to the OST to the this day. It's practically impossible to run on today's systems, so this getting a release with all the needed support and fixes would be a dream come true, and an instant day one purchase.
Along with Command and Conquer, the Mechwarrior 2 series filled many hours of fun at LAN parties, and remain my favorite of the series for the incredible music, compelling strategic game play, and the fact that, with these games running on home computers, you no longer needed to go to a fancy arcade and pay an exorbitant amount for 15 minutes in a simulation pod any more!
Mercs and GBL both gave so many good memories, different frustrating missions, down to the broken RNG that let that one Flashman that would automatically headshot you if you didn't snipe him down from max range with a PPC. Running circles around friends in Atlases while using a Jumpjet heavy Hellbringer was sheer joy.
A GoG collection would really need to combine the best of every world- I had the ATI Rage2 editions and Titanium editions and I seem to remember the Titanium Trilogy cut down on the original audio and introduced some bugs.
It would also need to add modding in custom mech parts, because we all know we're never getting the Unseen back. :(
Sim Theme ParkLike the previous title, Theme Park World tasks players with managing a series of amusement parks. To do this, the player must choose how to spend their available funds, finding a way to expand the number and scope of their parks while remaining profitable. Income from the park can be used to purchase new rides or attractions, hire staff to maintain the park, and other similar functions. Various elements can be controlled by the player, such as the name of the park, the price of admission, the layout of the roller-coaster tracks, and the quality of food in the park restaurants. An ant-like announcer by the name of Buzzy, voiced by Terry McGovern in the American-tailored Sim Theme Park and Lewis MacLeod in UK release Theme Park World, helps the player with advice during gameplay.Business
