I know some of those aren’t exactly bangers, or might just barely be considered good, but I won’t even play them all anyway[2] enjoy looking at subpar games from time to time
I nearly bought Blades of Time Limited edition, then I saw that I already had the base game in my library. It’s one of the things that pisses me off with GOG, it won’t say you own the game if you have the base/deluxe/platinum/definitive/whatever edition but are looking at a different version, and will gladly let you buy it again↩︎
I really need to get my shit together and start playing instead of just buying ↩︎
Darksiders Warmastered is a legendary game. Just finished it last month. It was so much fun. I didn’t like the second one. Looked like it was made by kids. So, I ended it at the first one and left the series with good memories of it.
I barely remember the story of SiN, but I do remember enjoying it when it came out. That whole “guy in the chair”/mission control shtick is probably why I hold this game in the same category as Deus Ex in my head, even though they’re very different.
Had to make a comment about SiN as well. This was one of those $5 disks in the very small PC section of Walmart back in the day. Had some great fun with that game.
I remember Shadowgrounds and Shadowgrounds: Survivor being some of the earliest commercial games with native Linux ports. Probably a lot harder to get the native port running on current Linux distros than the Windows release, unfortunately…

A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it’s price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don’t meet the system requirements, or just haven’t had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Exactly the same here. Loved one. Two was not great.

One of the few games based on the Quake 2 engine. Which is a shame, I quite liked the chunky feel of it.
Nice call on Jade Empire.
Still have the box with concept art, good ole days
Sacrifice is an amazing game. Extremely original gameplay.
Also some absolutely great dialog / voice acting.

This is like a Brazilian dollars.

Can’t speak for most of these games but Bug Fables was awesome. I find nyself playing other games and thinking “bug fables did this better…”
