i recently finished playing defender’s quest, a very affordable tower defense/rpg indie game. it cost me slightly more than 5 bucks with its initial release. i played it from linux because like most indie games nowadays, DQ (defender’s quest) is cross platform. i’m not much of an expert when it comes to the tower defense […]
besides playing around with a commodore computer when i was very young, i remember playing games on early (unknown brand) computers when i was in 1st grade. but my first major gaming experience was the original NES. for a very long time that’s all i played and cared about. eventually throw in some apple II’s, […]
if there’s ever a game that i have zero nostalgic feelings towards it’s final fantasy mystic quest. i remember seeing it in a game store when i was a teenager (or near that age) and being like oh my god a final fantasy game, that’s new, for only $20. somewhere in the back of my […]
i received ff1 the year it came out in 1990 for the NES when i was kid. i guess i would have been around 9 years old. i doubt my parents just picked it out and thought i would like it. i can’t recall the circumstances of how i acquired certain games, but it couldn’t […]
i never owned zelda2 when i was younger. my first experience of playing it was at a cousin’s house and the game was already in progress. so i’ve never really played the game from the beginning until now. i can’t say that i’m too much of a fan of this zelda. here’s my problems with […]

i had the desire recently to play diablo2/LOD again and was pleasantly surprised that the latest patches from blizzard allow you to play the game without cds. simply copy the .mpq files from the diablo2 play cd (if needed) and the LOD cd to the diablo2 folder. one other thing is that the game can […]
eduke32 is an updated port (to modern OS’s) of duke nukem 3d. i’ve just been messing around with it recently. the original duke nukem 3d data file needed is “duke3d.grp”. to get the video settings to look good, go to video setup (in-game) and change the texture filter setting to either linear or nearest. linear […]

i played this game when it originally came out in 2003 (minus expansion pack). i thought it was pretty awesome back then. now i pretty much consider it to be an average RTS. it’s a hybrid of age of empires + empire earth. it takes the historical aspect from AOE and the ability to advance […]
