Now THERE'S a game I haven't heard mentioned in a loooooong time. A real mind-bender.

Originally posted by Audigy7 Did you ever play EU2? I think if EU3 had the combat system of EU2 where you don't have the stupid regiment system, it'd be the best strategy game ever. I get so fucking tired of chasing around 1 regiment armies that just instantly retreat making them indestructible. Victoria, though, holy shit. I've been playing that game on and off ever since it came out (something like 3 years ago) and I'm still finding things I didn't know I could do. It didn't sell too well at all, but, no questions asked, it is the deepest game I've ever played and I think that's the reason for the low sales; it's almost too deep at times. EU:Rome looks pretty good. I'm really dissapointed in the regiment based armies approach they stuck with, but it fits better with this time period thanks to the Crusader Kings-ish(another Paradox game) character system they implemented. I have a big feeling it's going to be a lot like Crusader Kings, though, in the sense that it's going to need about a years worth of patches and tweeks before it becomes the game it should be. But, judging from the demo, it should still be a lot of fun.

Never played EU2... sounds worse though. It'd be great to have an AAR with an elected style government (like Roma). It'd be great because of how someone can be elected... and then someone else is but then the first person is again.

EU:Rome 1.1 patch notes: You can no longer retreat in the first 5 days of battle
WOO!

This game was awesome. You get to pick the players on your team. Diablo and Rocky FTW

I'm bumping this thread after remembering some cool games I used to play way back in grade school.





In the Hunt (PSone)

An underwater shooting game. How many of these exist? You were a submarine blasting your way through underwater fortresses, marinas, and crazy ass factories with all sorts of wicked, Japanese-themed stuff. This was among the first PSone games released (I wanna say it made an appearance on the Saturn as well). If you can find this, it'll probably run you 75 cents. Check it out, some of the bosses are crazy.




Project Overkill (PSone)

I couldn't find any gameplay pictures for this (only looked for about 3 seconds though), but this was a top-down game where you controlled a dude that basically killed everything in his path. For the time, this game was hysterically violent. I specifically remember the audio being very well-done, showing once and for all the necessity of gaming on a CD-rom vs. a cartridge.



Open Ice (PSone)

An arcade port, this game was essentially NBA Jam on ice...meaning, it kicked all kinds of ass. I believe this game was the precursor to Wayne Gretzky's 3D Hockey on the N64, a much more popular game. A very fun game to play with friends.



NBA Hang Time (N64)

I STILL play this game all the time. Absolutely hilarious, especially with 4 people playing and everyone with a custom character. It doesn't get much more fun than this.

The graphics on that In the Hunt game look remarkably like Metal Slug, and even the gameplay judging from the pics looks like metal slug. Indeed if the game is anything like metal slug it must be awesome.

Very good on noticing the similarity. I didn't even consider that. The game moves a TAD bit slower than the Metal Slug games, but its by such a small amount that you wouldn't notice the difference. If you dig the Slug games, you'd love In the Hunt.

Do NOT forget 4-square.

I loved playing Sim Copter. Man that was fun.

Not sure if its unknown or not but I remember an oldy that I used to play a lot

Transport Tycoon Deluxe

What a great strategy game that was, it was a transportation business simulator. It was extremely addictive and very fun. You can download it for free now since its abandonware.

I've still got it installed on this new laptop!
I'm playing the Open Source version though. It's fucking wicked.

I used to leave my computer running for days just to advance time. I should install it again but it will eat up too much of my time.

Shadowrun for sega back in like 1993 was the shit. I still play this game one or twice a month.
