Heavy Gear Heavy Gear was a mech warrior game like simulator where you could take part in a campaign/story mode or Tour of Duty mode, the Campaign lased 32 missions with various cut-scenes in between with REAL ACTORS and Actresses to play the roles. in Tour of Duty mode it was like a real war was taking place and you needed to pick a side north or south side and fight for your country, by choosing a unit and your missions with a strategy I never figured out how to complete, I passed over 1500, missions both with cheats and without cheats and never found an end, my theory is you need wait until your side of the planet is conquered to win and if your die too many times during tour of duty you die permanently and lose the war but that never happened to me so it's only a guess, based on 2 cut-scenes found in the movie part of the game called north and south death. If you used the cheats in the options menu you never get anywhere in tour of duty your can win 100,000,000 missions and still only conquer half the map. to win is unkown to me I spent 1000's of gameplay hours in Tour Of Duty mode in multiple career modes and I never made it past the rank of Colonel or Commandant, I am not even sure if the game is bugged to not ever let anyone progress any father in it, there is a patch but it acts just like a virus or a bug making the game from only seeming impossible to ever beat to completely unplayable https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ndSMxjbvdQ You have squad mates that help you through the campaign but if they die in your current mission and you don't play the mission over again they stay dead forever with nobody to replace them as you continue your quest in your war career and their AI is super dumb also often walking into enemy fire or killing themselves |

Not really that old but I loved Lord of the Rings Conquest (2009) on the Xbox 360. I rarely hear people talk about this one and it never went backwards compatible but it was made by Pandemic Studios who made the original Star Wars Battlefront game and played very similarly to it. I would love a remaster of it or even a new game in the series. |

I bought 'The Lord of the Rings: War in the North' on Steam and they've since pulled it from the store so no new buyers can obtain it, I guess some licensing problem. So glad I scooped it up beforehand. |
