Lynk Former plays Star Wars: X-Wing (Part 1)

My name is Lynk Former and I’m an X-Wing pilot… at least, that’s part of the origin of the name I came up with for myself. In that spirit, it’s time to take on the Empire in one of my most played games of the mid-90s.

Lynk Former plays Star Wars: Dark Forces

Before I get into the cockpit of an X-Wing, let’s take a blaster and shoot some Stormtroopers with Kyle Katarn in Dark Forces for a little bit… though, as I’ve discovered pretty quickly, this game along with all the other ones I played before it are definitely a product of their time…

Lynk Former plays HeXen: Beyond Heretic

After trying to get through Heretic’s second level, I decided to go beyond Heretic with HeXen… which didn’t turn out as well as I hoped because I couldn’t even get pass the first level. However, it is pretty cool how this game allows you to choose between three character classes.

Lynk Former plays Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders

I’ve never played Heretic, but since I’ve got time to have a look, let’s try and see how far I get with this oldskool game that not a whole lot of people ended up playing… aaaand, it turns out I didn’t get very far, this game is way too oldskool for me.

Lynk Former plays Wing Commander

This was going to be a series, but there are a lot of technical difficulties to overcome with this game that make it especially hard to play. On top of that, the first run of the game that I did was absolutely terrible, it was pretty embarrassing.

Lynk Former plays Dune II: The Building of a Dynasty [Dune Legacy] (Part 5 FINAL)

Finishing off the last two campaigns of Dune Legacy with the Mercenaries and Fremen. Just like with the Sardaukar campaign, these ones end up pulling some interesting tricks. You really have to watch out otherwise you might find yourself in serious trouble.

This time we play as the Sardaukar in one of three extra mission packs found in Dune Legacy. Things get interesting as the game does some unexpected things like giving us end game units in the first mission. Of course, despite all that, I still manage to beat the campaign.

Lynk Former plays Commander Keen 6: Aliens Ate My Babysitter!

The final and extra episode in Commander Keen in Goodbye, Galaxy is here! This is my favourite out of the Commander Keen games, mostly because of how strange it is and also the design of the aliens.

Lynk Former plays Duke Nukem 3D (Part 5 FINAL)

This is it, the last level. Time to rip those aliens a new one for the last time and go back home to all those bot babes… and such. If I can, I’ll definitely try to get my hands on some more Duke Nukem games for future playthroughs.

Lynk Former plays Duke Nukem 3D (Part 4)

This fourth episode is actually pretty cool, a lot more challenging than the previous ones… I thought that I’d end up finishing this all off in this episode, but I made it to the last episode and called it a day. On the next episode, we finally finish this!

Lynk Former plays Duke Nukem 3D (Part 3)

Time to finish this game off with the final episode of Duke Nukem 3D Atomic Edition. Being an extra episode, it’s a hell of a lot harder than the base game’s three previous episodes… though it is pretty interesting to see all new content that I haven’t seen before.
