First played this game when it originally came out and it has stood the test of time. A unique story with a great mix of story telling and puzzle solving. A must play for any point and click fan it has a view bugs here and there but nothing game breaking.
Good game but I think Stronghold Crusader Extreme Edition, which includes Stronghold Crusader HD is the go to Stronghold game. Improved graphics, more stable, more units, it's just better all around. It'd be nice if they included the levels from the original Stronghold while adding the new features but I don't think that's included. Still, get Stronghold Crusader Extreme edition, it'll provide a better experience overall. I had my old saves from a long while back when I owned the original and they work with the new one, I'm on 'The Big One' last mission in the warchest trail and I still love this game, so addictive, a true masterpiece.
This is by far the best Crusader game of the series. For the sale price you have to pick this up. Just remember it's and older game. Super addictive and hours of fun. The campaign is just phenomenal with each new mission presenting a new set of challenges. I absolutely love Crusader though it seems like there is a little bit of a secret formula that once discovered will get you pretty far before you have to start adjusting your tactics. To me this is a quintessential tower defense game with economy considerations. The music is really good too and there is just something about watching your villagers and troops run around in 2d isometric view that appeals to me. Great game, a true classic.
Tron 2.0. What can be said except WOW! This game is simply phenomenal and holds up extremely well especially in the graphics department. The game is a surreal journey through the inner working of a computer network and a true tribute the the original film. This was one of those games where you're always waiting to see what's coming next and are utterly devastated when you finally beat it. I can't say enough good things about Tron 2.0. The level of immersion is excellent and the game runs flawlessly with the resolution and graphics options maxed out. While not you typical run and gun FPS, Tron 2.0's combat mechanics are refreshing and engaging. A definite buy for anyone who loves PC gaming. Do yourself a favor and pick this title up, you won't be able to put it down.
