Perhaps on of the Collest Games of all Time - Giants-Citizen Kabuto
I probably became a Tech Industry Professional some 26 years ago because of games... In the early days I wrote small, voice feedback games and eduware for fun and small profit using Basic, Extended Basic among others. I never will forget when I purchased my first really full featured text interactive game called "Zork" where I fully got lost for weeks and remember nothing but the intricacies of that game. Later another game called "A Mind Forever Voyaging" got me for a couple of months... I think it was 1998 and I was on my annual pilgrimage to Comdex, Las Vegas as the relatively new CEO of a high tech startup (we designed Futuristic Workstations [bluezebra.com/bluezebra.inc]) and ran across a one man demonstration of a new game. The first thing I saw on this large screen (back then a 21" CRT) was this great horned creature jumping up into the air and landing on this little village of stone huts, obliterating it into rubble. I stopped and watched in utter amazement as the demonstrator showed off "Giants" in all it's amazing color and diversity. I knew I would certainly buy it as soon as it was available but I also wanted to show off our Futuristic PCs with this incredibly creative and interesting game. I remember doing "downtime" with my boy Gaelon (3) in my lap as we played for hours, over and over again, Giants-Kabuto, over about a year's time after which the CD became unreadable due to much use and some handling by my young Son. Even today I fondly remember Giants - Citizen Kabuto as probably the most enjoyable game we have ever played. In fact my Boy and I believe we received more entertainment value out of this game then any title we ever played, though certainly Half Life 1 would be a close second. It's just so very cool to me that GOG is offering this title among several other great titles as well as this exceptional, cutting edge service and I'm proud & appreciative to be an early participant with GOG. Awesome job guys and big thanks for bringing back Giants CK, Sher
