Nights: Journey of Dreams

Nights: Journey of Dreams (2007)

by Sega Studio USA, Sonic Team, Sega
Genres:Adventure, Platform
Themes:Action, Fantasy
Game modes:Single player, Multiplayer, Split screen
Story:This time around, however, Nights takes a bit of a different turn. Keeping in line with the "world of dreams" theme – it wouldn't be Nights without it – players will take control of Will and Helen, two young children each entering into Nightopia (the world of dreams) with their own back-story, emotional baggage, and inner demons that come to life though the forming of nightmares. It's a pretty simple concept overall, and with each child's five main levels you'll get a different piece of the story leading up to the same grand finale. Once they arrive in the land of dreams, each character meets up with a Nights almost instantaneously, and from there learns to meld with the mysterious creature and fly through the world of Nightopia. Along the way you'll learn of the quest to find the hidden Ideya (basically essences of the human spirit), and eventually attempt to defeat a powerful god-like creature named Wizeman and his right-hand man Reala.Show more

Fantastic game that deserves to not be stuck on the Wii! Fantastic soundtrack, a more accessible structure for newcomers and excellent vibes. Many NiGHTS fans missed this one, and that's a crime!

Everything I said about NiGHTS into dreams, but now its on the Wii. A 10/10 soundtrack, a simple yet captivating story, fantastic character design and addictive arcade gameplay. Now with Octopaw. Who doesn’t love Octopaw? Julissa Aguirre also provides a really charming performance as everyone's favourite gender fluid court jester. The game is also stuck on the Wii at the mo, so a new PC release would be grand. Plus, NiGHTS' 30th anniversary is coming up, so this would be nice. :)
I got it for Christmas a few years ago as I had fallen in love with NiGHTS into Dreams that year. The first time I heard When the Night Falls, I was enamored. I barely played the game that night, opting to instead wander around, serenaded by the music as if I had truly fallen asleep and was transported to the Dream Gate. The whole game was a joy to play, offering a pleasant adventure for whomever might play, and I wish it was available to more people. NiGHTS deserves her chance in the moonlight.

NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams is a game I’ve had in the back of my mind for almost a decade. I enjoyed the original through the HD port on PS3, and was always curious about this one. About a year ago I picked this up from a retro store and enjoyed it quite a bit. I love the music and most of the levels. I also really like the art direction and control feels good when not using motion controls. It’s a shame this one was left behind on Wii and didn’t get ported to PC or any systems. I’d really like to see this one be ported and preserved.
My first NiGHTS game and I really enjoyed to 100% it on my wii back then, and again on the last year, getting all A ranks, it deserves to be enjoyed by everybody

This game has helped me though some of the darkest times in my life, I always come back to it when I am feeling down. I truly believe this is once of the best games on the WII and should be experienced by as many people as possible.
NiGHTS was such a huge, formative game for me, Journey of Dreams was one of those games that I was bought as a gift and immediately fell in love with. That was as a 7 year old. Now at 24 this game and the entire NiGHTS franchise brings me so much nostalgia and joy.
I love this franchise so much and I want people to know more about this. The original NiD was playable before it got delisted so hopefully it will come back at a similar time to to this. I just want people to fall in love with NiGHTS like I did and just see the amazing world they built up. It'd be such a shame the original game being only playable and not it's sequel.

I played this game as a kid and loved it, it stuck with me through all the years and I made friends because I played it. Now with my Wii going I can't really play it anymore, so I'd love to get to play it again.
This is my childhood favorite game, it has inspired me and it's a crime that I have no way of recommending this game to people without them hunting down an old wii copy or pirating. Having it here would help inspire people in the same way it did for me. That and it'd be nice for the online functions to work again. I love Roger L Jackson as Wizeman so much.

Freelancer
FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Silent Hill 3
Silent Hill 3Silent Hill 3 is the third installment in the Silent Hill series. Like the previous entries, Silent Hill 3 is a survival horror combining action-based combat and puzzle-solving, but is somewhat more combat-oriented than the preceding installments. The main character is able to side-step and block some attacks, but in general shares with the other protagonists of the series their relative ineptitude in combat.
