I remember this game, and how I found it to have an interestint premise, but crap implementation. The only thing I recall from this game was when I saw Hitler giving a speech somewhere, and doing the obvious thing, blowing his brains out with a rifle - only to watch him get up again. So I...

I'll just paraphrase the ending line from the RPG Codex's review of Arcania to sum it up: "Gothic 4 - it's not worth it even if it shipped with hookers and booze." Gothic 1 and 2 have their place. Gothic 3 is different and buggy but there's still fun to be had there. Risen is the real...

This is why I love the Gothic games. Bottomless inventories of weightlessness let me run around the landscape like a black hole, sucking in anything not nailed down or trying to kill me. Sure, such inventories are unrealistic, but they're loads of fun, especially when you get philosophical...

Who would I have assassinated? That's easy. God. Why? For the sole purpose of clearing up the question of whether there is a God or not. And then put an end the debate by having God killed. [John Cleese]Yes, it actually turned out that there was a God. He was slumming it out in a...

As far as games go, only one game has ever really scared me to the point that I had to sleep with a nightlight on when I was a kid. That was the Aliens game for the Amstrad CPC. The one where you controlled 6 characters through a metallic HUD and saw the action through their cameras. Aliens...

Very few games manage to make me tense anymore. The latest game to do that though, was Eversion, though it never amounted to more than a uneasy feeling of creepiness. I did love the ending, though.

Megatraveller 2. I created a character, and could choose his starting career path. Then I could choose another career path, and another. Before I knew it, my character was too old for the party and was retired automatically as a high-ranking military man.

Balthas is actually the first one that sprang to my mind, but he is too minor a character to deserve a talking head. The list of people in Modoc worthy of a TH is pretty short. # Jo # Miria # Davin # Bess (!)

To give an alternate point of view... I don't think Rake fits that well as Smitty. To me, Smitty's writing suggests that he's older than Rake looks. But then the question is, who would he fit better? The only one I could think of would be the captain of the Tanker in San Fran.

...was that the Robot Unicorn?

Valve did. That's why one of the Medic hats is a set of "Ze Goggles" that looks like the ones Egon has on at one point in the film.

What's been said, too much Nintendo in that game. Still, 24785 was my highest score.

Caleb from Blood, Duke Nukem, Garrett from Thief and SHODAN from System Shock. Good, that covers the basics. The one that should already have been mentioned: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPUZIagbl94 The whole game is full of awesome voice acting. One of my personal favourites is...

...was that the Keyboard Cat there right at the end?

You just may get your wish...

I was waiting for someone to mention Subnormality, as it's the best webcomic around in my opinion. But then again, I don't spend as much time on webcomics as some people here seem to do...

Note how all of Valve's games are in the top 20.

I can confirm this. What's more, with the Car on the map, your followers have the tendency to appear inside it when you come crawling out of the caves.

I can second many games that have been mentioned here, especially in the "disappointing" category, but instead I'll bring up a couple of titles that haven't been mentioned. Rise Of The Robots: A beat'em-up that took full advantage of the newest graphical technologies of 1993. Static...

Vault Dweller: That mission is at Wissenheim? Forgive my failing memory here, but I last played the game when it was new. The way I did it, I either skipped the last mission(s) and went on to Zhufbar (never tried to go straight to Loren), or that I did complete it, only to find my forces so...
