But it would feel very dated now fo sho. Maybe on account of it being so old! 

True, the worst being the build engine mouse control, bmouse.exe helps a bit but yeah...whatever happened to transfusion ? 

I just discovered it: looks like a nice puzzle game..

Review of Turok (2008)
http://www.etherealhell.com/etherealhell/reviews/2012/turok.php

I really enjoyed it! 8/10. 

"Everything seems murky and drab, with fog drenched over everything." God yeah the Turok series has always had a thing, nay, a fetish with fog :P In fairness for performance reasons but now it probably just has to be there to "be" Turok. 

This will be a fairly short review of the past two hours that I just wasted playing Serious Sam 3.

Take everything that was good about Serious Sam, throw it away and release. That's how Serious Sam 3 was made.

When the most fun thing about your game is the sound the protagonist makes when pulling the head of a common spider enemy then you know you are doing something wrong. When your players spend more time wandering around and getting lost in your maze-like levels than they do fighting enemies, then you know that you probably need to making a few changes here and there.

We kept thinking it was going to get better, but it didn't. Maybe it does 3 hours in? 4 hours in? Not worth any more of my time to find out.

And since when was Serious Sam about story? Why the fuck are there cutscenes?

Shit. 

Yeah the start is really meh, it does get better 3 or 4 hours in actually, but even then it's still not as good as the previous entries. :(

Haven't finished it, but there were a few pretty cool fights.
All the dust smoke that appears when you shoot at stuff is annoying cause it blocks the view so much.
Also the new enemies soldiers with hitscan weapons suck, especially considering they aren't brightly colored like the other monsters so they blend into the environment and are hard to spot. 

Thanks for posting that review of cybermage, it looks really crazy from those screenshot. Also, that cyberpunkreview.com site is pretty intense :) I've got some film recommendations from them that look exciting (Ghost in the Shell) 

you are in for a treat! I can also recommend Patlabor. akira is way to fucked up and weird for my taste. 

It is seriously special. 

FFS DWARF FORTRESS.

They got a shitload of criticism and arguments all the way through the dev process and after the release, compared to which the negative reactions to RMQ seem mild. But, indeed, there are quite a few similarities between the two. And naturally, in Doom there are strong "newschool" and "oldschool" factions which clash when it comes to the question of what the game can be vs. what it should be.

I enjoyed KDIZD, but I can see where the critics are coming from. The levels are indeed often a little over-reinterpreted and -expanded, and the large number of new monsters as well as the unnecessarily high difficulty can easily put players off. Yeah, the mod has some serious skill balancing issues, because the guy who finished the levels gameplay-wise is a hardcore player who didn't put enough consideration on properly implementing difficulty settings. 

�To Exit, You Will Need the Red Key, Blue Key, Silver Key,
Lavender Key, and Seafoam Green Key�"


Is that a joke? 

There are indeed several occasions where you need to find all six keys to proceed or exit the level. 

 

this game needs a sequel! 

Not entirely sure but I think the rights might be stuck in limbo after the publisher went bankrupt during development of the sequel.

Didn't know that any info was released but apparently this piece of concept art was:

Also didn't you make Enclave, bear?

I did all of Enclave by myself! ...or rather I started to work at Starbreeze when they were wrapping it up and played around with the content a bit but never contributed to the game.

Gameplay perfectly matches the visuals. Mad satisfying weapon impacts on the bad dudes.

Love the textures and the general colour scheme, and they nailed the retro-doom-neon style, very coherent, in a crazy sort of way.

There's some good money to be made with this I reckon.

...derp? 

anyone played? It looks so good, but I'm not even an RPG guy, and almost borderline-casual, so I'm worried it will just be too much for me.
