Spring RTS Engine

Guys guys
FEAR is a modern classic, it has to be mentioned
It's up there with halflife in my book

I decided to indulge and make my own hackney list.


Point and click

Sam and max hit the road / Day of the tentacle

Shooter

Mafia

Max Payne 2 / half life (and cs + dod etc that were the mainstay back in the day)

Multiplayer fps

Unreal Tournament 2004


Rpg

Diablo 2

Heroes of Might and Magic 3

Dungeon Master ( fps mode on the imp ! )

Racing

Burnout

Fighter

Guilty Gear

planes / flying

Crimson skies

Sports

Ea sports Nhl
Ea Rugby ( I got both of these games in a package for dirt cheap, I wasnt a fan of watching either on the tv, these games turned out to be awesome )

How's Heroes of Might and Magic 3 an RPG?

Dungeon Keeper (thats the name, unleash for a huge coincidence there is other game where you can fps imps) is not an rpg either, only has a few elements. And I heard the second is overall better.

I'd put FEAR in a list of the top 10 FPS games ever (probably in the tenth spot), but I wouldn't put it in a list of the best games ever by genre.

Fear was nice, but a bit repetative and probably a little too easy,
maybe im just too picky

FEAR is like Half-Life? Well, that explains why I got annoyed by it so quickly. I tend to finish Quake-likes but Half-Life games just fail to be fun for me.

Fear isn't really like halflife at all... Fear is sort of like max paine/doom 3... with the addition of the most repetitive enemy design ever.

And funny clipping bugs that make speed running it fun

MORROWIND!
In RPG there is little competiton for me

I just downloaded the OST again. It made me feel things. Oh god i love that OST

XCOM

I just can't stop.

Fallout II

sim/planes flying/space/something with aircraft thingys..

That catagory is solely taken by Freespace 2.. anyone who disagrees will have their right to an opinion revoked..

Mmmmmmm..... Freespace 2.
The open source project on it is awesome.

Freespace 2 represents the Wing Commander style games, I think X3 represents the Elite style games.

A guy posts that DX:IW is better than DX.

One of the replies I liked:

Calling your opinion wrong was what brought the significance of the accusation to a text medium. He was stating that you have made a statement so wrong that even as an opinion it fails. It could also serve to make DX's superiority a mathmatical truth.
If IW was different, how is DX not different? IW was a godless rape child of DX's difference and the homogenous generic-ness found in most modern shooters.
Just because the buttons were different, it doesn't make the game any worse, you just sucked at them.
