I really liked finding the different types of golems in this game and there are ultra strong bosses you can try to defeat that have nothing to do with beating the game like side quests. If i remember correctly one was called Omega it was very satisfying when I finally beat him down. |

I mentioned in another thread that I have only recently stumbled into PC gaming. While I did play a few here & there years back Here are few that I absolutely love & others that I have gotten that I haven't gotten around to playing yet: Older PC games I've played & enjoyed: 1. The 7th Guest 2. The Sims ---> creating sims & killing them off in a fiery "accident" was always fun. Then I'd place a tombstone outside the house & move another family in. 3. Allied General 4. Command & Conquer 5. Command & Conquer: Red Alert Older PC games I am looking forward to playing: 1. Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 2. Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun 3. Dune 2000 4. Emperor: Battle for Dune 5. Quake III: Arena 6. Unreal Tournament GOTY Edition 7. Red Faction Most of these had a console release & I've played on that. I kind of wish that wish some of the FPS from the late 90's & early 2000's allowed you to play using a controller. Using a mouse to look & using the left analog stick on my controller, is a bit much. I wish I could take the older games & add full controller functionality. Console wise, there are way too many for me to list. The majority of my favorites would be on the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, PS1, & PS2. |

The first game that comes to mind is Vice Project Doom on NES. No one ever talks about it, but I think it’s one of the best games on the console. It combines action, driving, and first person shooting in a way Adventures of Bayou Billy only wishes it could, and they’re all actually FUN. Add in the Ninja Gaiden-style cutscenes along with pretty good music, and you have a great yet underappreciated game. One more: the arcade game Food Fight. A pretty obscure game that has been kind of forgotten, and I believe has only been rereleased once via some defunct online service years ago. I only ever saw and played the actual arcade cabinet once during my childhood. It’s actually a LOT of fun plastering the evil chefs in the face with watermelon or peas, and IMO deserves much more recognition. |

Gotta check those out ... ! |

On the other hand, unfortunately Food Fight is not currently available through any conventional means, so emulation is the only option. Just make sure you play it with an analog stick, a standard d-pad doesn’t do it justice :) |
