| 2582 | Parsec Demo | games | -1 | Parsec Demo | OMG! Looks to be one of the best looking space shooters avail. once it's complete. Even the demo will make you DROOL; not to mention how fast it is even on older 586 machines =) < although this is definately due to the fact that it utilizes glide. It makes me cry thinking about the days when no 3dfx meant no 3D. Sure Mesa might support a greater # of cards, but is too slow/unstable at this point unless you have 32MB vidcard w/ 786 :P | 2000-07-09 00:47:40 | 0 |
| 2583 | Dave Gnukem | games | -1 | Dave Gnukem | June 9th 2000 The following link should work: http://freshmeat.net/appindex/1999/01/02/915331968.html Uhm... you heard of a search box? LOL | 2000-07-09 01:22:58 | 0 |
| 2584 | Freeciv | games | 3821 | Freeciv | FreeCiv gets stars for having network play and better graphics than the original Civ2 (IMHO), but thats about all. The technology tree is difficult to understand if you have not played Civ2, and the AI players are suspiciously gaining techs at twice the rate of human players. Don't let the discourage you too much, FreeCiv is certainly worth your time :) | 2000-07-09 10:11:21 | 0 |
| 2585 | Missile Command | games | -1 | Missile Command | In general, I like the game, can't wait for sound. I also like the ability to use the spacebar to fire from the site closest to the descending missle. | 2000-07-09 16:03:00 | 0 |
| 2586 | Heroes | games | 704 | Heroes | Heroes is awesome: <ul> <li>great graphics, with demo-scene-like fades, rotations, etc. <li>great mod music <li>great gameplay </ul> It's really polished and professionally done, and it reminds me a lot of the Future Crew demos... | 2000-07-10 05:04:21 | 0 |
| 2587 | Fanwor | games | 3818 | Fanwor | It's very much a clone of Legend of Zelda, right down to the map layout and I think the graphic tiles are ripped from Zelda too. But, a lot of stuff doesn't quite match Zelda either. The bosses at the end of the labyrinth levels are missing, and the items to find and buy are missing, so you are stuck wandering around with just a sword killing the non-boss monsters. <P> It would have been nicer to have an original game in the style of Zelda, with a new world, new graphics tiles, new items and maybe a new storyline. Maybe someone can some of the code to do this. | 2000-07-10 08:47:20 | 0 |
| 2588 | Raptor - Call of the Shadows | games | -1 | Raptor - Call of the | This is a very impressive game, it ran without any problems (other than the need to grab the latest SDL library). One bit of advice; play at least at Rookie or Elite level, novice is a walk in the park. I'm a bit disapointed that the craft can take sooo many hit's, there was never that luxury in Twin Cobra, R-Type .. On a side note, it's obvious that SDL is the future for videogaming. 4/5 stars! | 2000-07-10 13:01:17 | 0 |

| 2591 | Raptor - Call of the Shadows | games | 2642 | Raptor - Call of the | Awesome. :-) I wasted many, MANY hours on the original Raptor back in the DOS days, and it's still hella fun, and the graphics still hold up pretty well by today's standards. Definitely try it, even if you hate shareware -- Raptor rocks. | 2000-07-10 21:27:33 | 0 |
