Gaming Guessing Game

[Stenevor]

Wizball. I had it for the Atari ST, a classic!

 

[Quokka]

Yep, I had it for the commodore 64. There was just so much to like about that game, originality, gameplay, 2 player teamwork and one of the best soundtracks/effects of the c64.

Your up Stevenor

 

[Stenevor]

PC strategy, exploration type game.

"Heroes of Might and Magic 3" Armageddon's Blade expansion - Conflux city

 

[polymath]

Looks like a cool game, to be sure.

 

[kyektulu]

The game certainly looks impressive, I think I will have to check this out.

 

[Taltos]

The game certainly looks impressive, I think I will have to check this out.

There is Heroes of Might and Magic 4 out (and expansions) and 5 is rumored to be in the making.

 

[polymath]

But are they any good? Should I rush out and get #4?

 

[Taltos]

If you like turn based strategy and 4X games, then they are pretty good.

3 and 4 are somewhat different as 4 is the first game in the series, when the hero is actually on the combat screen. Haven't decided if that is really positive or negative.

The main negative point for me was that there is no random map generator - the maps are all hand made - it's just a minor nuisance, if you look around you'll find a lot of user made maps. And there are good scenarios and stand alone maps present in the original installation.

"Heroes of Might and Magic 3" Armageddon's Blade expansion - Conflux city

Correct. Ive only played the original, not the expansion pack. I found it really addictive for a week or so and then lost a bit of interest. There might be a demo version available for you to try before you buy.

 

[kyektulu]

Your turn Taltos.

 

[Taltos]

Sorry in a hurry right now and couldn't find a nice online image for the game I wanted to put up So anyone who wants to go ... be my guest

 

[Marky Lazer]

I'll take that one, then Taltos. An easy one, but this is still in my Top 3 games ever.

 

[Green]

I'll go with Dune.

 

[Marky Lazer]

Technically, that's not correct. Dune was an Adventure I believe, this is Dune2. But your go, because I stole the thread anyway...

 

[Green]

I was thinking Dune 2, but thought that had better graphics

Ok, here's an old game... I think it was available on all sorts of formats.

 

[Quokka]

Bionic Commando

(It poped up in the quiz a few pages back but got switched before I had posted).

 

[Green]

Ha! I should have paid more attention

It was Bionic Commando, well done. Great game, great memories...
