pool of radiance: ruins of myth drannor
Stormfront Studios

release oct 2001
they claimed ( the reviewer) that tables could be pushed agains doors, turned down to protect themselves and much more interactivity....
BUT i saw a video on youtube and the graphics of Pillars look crisper, tighter, and less blurry/pixrl like
thet the old stuff Pool of Radiance used but the again that was 2001 this is done 13 years later so theres better techniques now.
on with some more games:
Death Dealer
diablo2 :LOD (good game)
homm 4
harbinger
and may more (up to 199 previews thas a lot to put all here)
There are seriously good old games still out there
gamesfreak64: a horse crossing crowded roads traffichour?
frogger would be a better game to have instead , its the one that kinda started other games to clone it.
theres lots of frogger like games made.
Cyraxpt: Uhm, not sure if you're joking but he's talking about an actual game,
Crossy Road.
Edit: Lol, if this forum had animated avatars
this would be mine just to annoy everyone! >:)
i am not joking , i saw the game, beside i am serious 99.9% of the time especially when talking about a game.
i became 50 in 2014 end year so i been around long and started with the atari 2600
c64, amiga500 lateron HD, then 1st pc at 100 mhz 8 mb ram and small HD tilll the quad core 2.67 with nvidea GTS250 i have now, win7 64bits HP 8 gb ram
So most of the game today are remakes or spinnofs of classic games, almost anything has been done so its hard to create a 100% original idea/game
I played any kind of games withe the exception of:
FPS (motion sickness) games
game that involves walking in 3d through a 3d renderd landscapes whic allows the eprson to rotate the entire environs 360 degrees .
or to many flashing lights (photo sensitivity)
so i have covered at last 89% maybe more.
Nowadays i own 300 to 500 casual games on retail cd
