303rd played so far Genre: Action/Role-Playing Platform: Xbox 360/Playstation 3/PC Year of Release: 2010 Developer: Bioware Publisher: Electronic Arts Woo! Time for something else fun. Aside from my documented love of Bioware, we both rushed through the original Mass Effect after our blog write-up. Mass Effect 2, from what we’ve seen, has decided to become […]

300th played so far Genre: Action Platform: PC/Playstation 2/Xbox Year of Release: 2001 Developer: DMA Design Publisher: Rockstar Games I’ll be honest – the lead-up to playing this game was a bit more difficult than normal. All excited about playing game 300, we inserted it into our Playstation 2 and started playing it. Within seconds […]

294th played so far Genre: Adventure Platform: PC Year of Release: 1999 Developer: Funcom Publisher: Funcom Some games just attract you with their screenshot alone. This was the case with the one featured for The Longest Journey (as well as its sequel, also listed, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey). The market in which the protagonist is […]

290th played so far Genre: First-Person Shooter Platform: PC/Playstation 3/Xbox 360 Year of Release: 2007 Developer: Irrational Games Publisher: 2K Games Some games do grab your imagination and, through word of mouth alone, make you want to play them. Bioshock is one of them. It’s not a coincidence we have two copies of it (combined […]

289th played so far Genre: First-Person Shooter Platform: PC/PS3/XBox 360 Year of Release: 2007 Developer: Valve Corporation Publisher: Valve Corporation We recently played (well, nearly two years ago… how time flies, right?) Team Fortress Classic, a multiplayer-only FPS (bots in practice mode) based on Half-Life that became quite big. So big, in fact, that Valve […]

288th played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 2003 Developer: Big Huge Studios Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios Some games make you wonder how they’re going to work. Rise of Nations is one such game. Created by Brian Reynolds, one of the main people behind Civilization II, it is pretty much described as […]

284th played so far Genre: Action/Role-Playing Platform: PC Year of Release: 2007 Developer: CD Projekt Red Publisher: Atari, Inc. Woo, awesome. Here’s a game I’ve been looking forward to for a while (pretty much the start of the blog – it’s on my list of games to play anyway). This was helped, too, by our […]

278th played so far Genre: Strategy/Role-Playing Platform: PC Year of Release: 2005 Developer: Irrational Games Publisher: Digital Jesters/Electronic Arts Time for some more insanity. Today’s installment, Freedom Force vs The 3rd Reich, fits in with the recent rise of superhero movies, and plays with its stereotypes. Speechbubbles, comic book looks, hammy acting and over the […]

262nd played so far Genre: Puzzle/Platform Platform: PC/XBox 360 Year of Release: 2008 Developer: Number None Inc. Publisher: Number None Inc., Microsoft Game Studios Some games have an initial concept and description that make the game more interesting from that alone. Braid is one of those. While essentially a platformer, the game introduces manipulation of […]

#703 Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords

Tags: , , ,

261st played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 2006 Developer: Stardock Publisher: Stardock We like 4X-strategy games, Civilization and its successors. I also like Sci-Fi. Galactic Civilizations II, which pretty much combines the two, sounds like a good game for that very reason. Despite possible appearance, this game has little in common […]
