Isn't the proper phrase "tango down"?

BeatriceElysia: Nine Parchments
Developer Frozenbyte clearly has an undeniable talent to make not just beautiful, but truly gorgeous games. I must've spent half of Trine 2 just gawking at the surroundings. I imagine Nine Parchments will be the same.

Don't take this the wrong way, but do you ever play modern (lets say post 2007) games? :)

Great shot! If my experience with Novalogic's F16 is anything to go by then those up close and personal take downs of enemy fighters are very rare. Most of the time I just saw small explosions many kilometers away :P

Well, I *have* recently played Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap (notice the screenshot I posted?). Granted, it *is* a remake, but that remake was released in 2017.

I do tend to play a lot of older games, as I tend to prefer them to more modern games.
Space Pirates and Zombies 2

After a month of neglect I finally decided to actually play this game and scratch that space itch. Some say it's not as good as the original, aka a bit shallow (and probably they're right). However it's fun, looks great and I'm hooked.

Bonus Point - Runs great on my Intel HD laptop :D

It's the same in BMS; BVR tactics is a must, especially against Su's which are deadly to tackle in close range with a F-16. But there's nothing more rewarding than to take down a fighter by using the cannon only. :)

"Tango Down"? Only amateurs speak like that. "Pew pew kaboom" is the proper brevity code. :D
I was kind of surprised to find that TetrisFriends is still up and running. I shall visit again more often, seeing as those 2-player bouts are good fun and plenty of people seem to be still playing. :)

That great to hear, I might check it out myself then. The first one was great, though the silly story and horrible voice acting was a downer.

Oh yes. The best I ever experienced in this regard was during a night mission when we had to scramble to intercept bombers with a fighter escort heading to a friendly airbase. I decided upon a detour that would get my right behind the attacking force by sticking close to the hilly coasts and flying low enough that no one had line on sight on me. For my trouble I was rewarded with the rear end of an unprotected bomber formation (the fighter escort preoccupied with intercepting friendly fighters). So I just leveled behind each bomber and ripped it to pieces with my vulcan cannon >:)

It's pretty fun thanks :) I managed to win a game against someone that clearly had no idea what they were doing

Most of my time is spent with much older games as well, but not quite as far back as you :) Only back to the 90s and early 2000s for the most part. Partly because I don't have a gaming rig at the moment, but mostly because certain genres either peaked or at least created timeless classics in that time : Jagged Alliance 2, Pharaoh, Homm3, Stronghold, Infinity engine games to name just a few.

Just picked up the Witcher 3 and it is such a fantastic game. Loving every minute of it. I should have played this sooner. Playing this at native 4k & 60 frames.

Edit: Strange, doesn't let me attach the screenshot...lol.

Is it less than 500kB? perhaps it has a weird extension other than jpg, jpeg or png? Or if you tried to post it through a link to an image sharing website then it won't work on account of you being a new member with low rep.

It's actually 10.2 mbs...lol. Could that be why?

That's a bit massive yes :) You can make it smaller in something like gimp or even paint, or you could share it via an image sharing website like https://imgur.com/
