Are you a hardcore 'gamer' or create music for 'puter games?

I feel Deus Ex deserves a mention here for its music. To me that’s still the best single player game ever made for various reasons, music being one of them :wink:. The other most important reason is the story and how much influence you have on it, never seen that paralelled in any other game.

Slightly off topic, but if you’re looking for a bit of nostalgia…

Play legacy console games in your browser

:mrgreen:

I notice the Fairchild video game console isn’t mentioned, at the time it was the main competion to the Atari systems.
(I used to run a store that sold them all as well as the early PETs etc. :wink: )

Hey, this is the lounge, nothing is off topic… :wink:

BTW, Microsoft has recently unveiled a bunch of free online HTML 5-based games, and boy, that emulation really takes the cake:

BTW, they’re all multi-touch-friendly, if you have Windows 8/8.1.

Yes – great game! At the time, however, my computer/graphics card was not quite up to snuff for that game, and play could get twitchy when all hell was breaking loose. I recall one point where I was about to meet up with some major boss from the UN/Illuminati/etc. guys, and I had to decide whether to join him, or kill him. I had some sort of rocket launcher, so I took him out. So from then on I was on “the other side” (freedom fighters if I recall). I never did finish that game :cry:

You should definitely try to finish it, and then another 5 times because there’s plenty of ways to end the game :slight_smile:
It looks terrible by todays standards but the gameplay is still better than most modern games!

I didn’t have the game any longer, so I bought a copy on eBay for $4. Now all I need to do is make an XP partition so I can play it :laughing:

It doesn’t run on Windows 7? I’m quite sure I’ve played it on 7 at some point.

music for games, yes a while ago…

hardcore gamer, as soon as Star Citizen comes out :mrgreen:

Occasional trips to “The Secret World” too but not really hardcore, great game though

I just assumed it didn’t. Didn’t it come out in the year 2000? Weren’t we all still on Win98SE at that point? :laughing:

Just try it, it should work and it’ll be worth it :wink:

I’m an old school point and click adventure gamer. I’m also scoring a retro point and click adventure game called Quest for Infamy. Will be released in a few months on steam, gog and humble. Currently recording voice actors and testing. First real big project I’ve done and I love it. Notched up around 80 mins of original music too! Www.questforinfamy.com

did you back Tim Schafer/ Double Fine Adventure on Kickstarter? Broken Age is a real masterpiece :slight_smile:

I didn’t back it I’m afraid but I did see it in action. Beautiful graphics and music but the gameplay seemed to leave a lot to be desired, which is a shame.

The last Tim Schafer game I played was Psychonauts which I thought was amazing. Gameplay and graphics weren’t top of the line but the story and graphics style are awesome.
