Netstorm: Islands at war

It's an RTS where you fight between flying islands and the way to win a round is to build an altar and sacrifice the other player on it.

but i havent played it as an adult so idk if its actually bad. i may have to install it tonight and see. it just looks like its bad to me, if you are not eight.

Get the mods for the game to make the norns not retarded, get a monitor program to micromanage the stuff and remove maximum population limits.

Watch as you come back in 10 hours and see a digital ant farm. It's pretty amazing how messed up the norns can get through generations of breeding. I left it going for a weekend unattended and while the average norn dies of old age after 10 hours I had an entire world filled when I got back.

Mind you I locked the progenitor norns in a single room and took away the submarine. They were all over the place which means they learned. The GOG version comes with everything.

This series brought out the weird in people that were already extremely weird.

For some reason, I found the whole thing incredibly depressing.

Such a boring game,but I didn't mind it back in the day.

I knew this wasn't gonna be as good as Phantasy Star 2 because it had 1 less Mega Memory. Still paid 85 bucks for it though.

I would rent the poo poo out of King of the Monsters 1 and 2 for the Genesis. West Coast video wound up getting their copies stolen so years later I came across a copy of each used for 6 bucks each.


I also bought the videogame Balls to complete the trifecta of games I rented but was never able to buy.

sonic the hedgehog 1-3. i thought they were rad as a kid but looking at them now they are pretty much garbage other than the music/visuals (and most of sonic 1 actually looks pretty bad). it's like sega went forward in time, saw all of the really, really great things about super meat boy's mechanics, and then went back to the 90s to do the exact opposite.

camera waaaaay too close in to see anything coming, momentum based movement that feels incredibly unresponsive and slow, constantly waiting long periods of time for platforms, level design that doesnt encourage speed outside of the first couple stages of each game, a retarded health mechanic, and the sections where you actually go fast play themselves. but when i was a kid he was just a cool hedgehog dude and oh man look how fast this part is and how great this game looks

Yeah I suppose the platforming in that game was pretty bad.

Since we're talking Star Wars:



The first and third ones were good. This one was hot garbage.

Sonic games get better when you know the layout of the stage, the game really is fast when you know what you're doing.
