I was originally going to buy this game for Wii way back in the day, but I never ended up buying it. Luckily, I found it being sold on GOG so here we are. This is a remake, rather a reimagining of a NES game that was done by WayForward.
As I play more of this game, I’m really beginning to understand all the small little problems it has that amounts to a great flaw in the game. The first flaw is that 99% of the time, you’re never told if you have failed your mission…
I was finally able to finish off those historical missions, not that I had any idea at the time because the last historical mission I did seemed to have bugged out (at least that’s what I think). Either way, I moved onto the first tour of duty…
This episode focuses on the bonus historical missions and uses multiple different starfighter variants. Things were going well, but then halfway through the stream, my area was hit with a power outage and… well… I can’t exactly stream without power.
I love the A-Wing, maybe not as much as the X-Wing but it’s still a hell of a starfighter. The B-Wing on the other hand, while it started off interesting, ended up being a nightmare in the end. That whole Death Star run “what if” mission is so damn TERRIBLE!
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.
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…
The third game in the Heretic/HeXen series takes us into the Quake engine rather than the Doom engine and there are a lot of improvements, though, it’s definitely not a game that I’d be able to play all the way through, at least not after I’ve been spoiled by much newer games.
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.
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.
This is it, the last stretch of the game where we finally confront Lisa Trevor and then head down to the laboratory and make use of that Magnum that I have been saving for all this time.
