If you're a fan of first person shooters then you owe it to yourself to play MOHAA. This GOG bundle comes with both expansion packs and when you combine all three products you have a huge WW2 adventure to go on! From going undercover and inflitrating uboats to trudging through the Ardennes in thick fog you'll go all over all over globe in MOHAA. This is an easy buy for any and all action fans.
Refer to the other reviews to get info on the gameplay and game quality, this review is a heads up that once you buy and install the game you should make some changes to improve how it looks and feels. Before you launch the game look under 'Additonal Executables' and you will see two different config programs. Open up both and make sure to disable BOTH textue filtering options. When enabled all the textures look blurry and smeared, turning off filtering gives you those crisp pixels that look so much better. You should also be sure to fix the aspect ratio, by default it stretches the original 4:3 video to match your monitors aspect ratio and everything looks stretched and wrong. Once you've got those options set you can enjoy this charming western retro shooter!
Alien Shooter is a game where in each level you mow down huge hordes of aliens. Entire hallways will be painted in blood and strewn with viscera as you chew through thousands of minigun rounds and scores of rockets. If you're a fan of Crimsonland or Tesla vs Lovecraft then this game is for you. Being able to purchase items and weapons between levels adds an extra layer to the game but really itall comes down the gratuitous violence and scores of enemies. I really enjoy this game and for what it costs I've easily gotten my moneys worth.
A truly classic platformer and DOS game that runs perfectly. If you played it in the 90s or have only just heard about it it's worth picking up and playing.
Amid Evil is up there with DUSK when it comes to must-play classic FPS revival games. Personally, I enjoy it more than DUSK. One of the first things that blew me away was the weapon sprites, they look so god damn good. All the PBR sprites in the world don't matter if the level design sucks but Amid Evil nails on that front too. The map flow is consistently intuitive and interesting and each weapon is a blast to use.
Chances are if you're an FPS fan you've played Quake 4. If, for some reason, you haven't then you definitely should. There are a few issues like the movement speed being a bit too slow but those are minor in the context of it being Quake Strogg universe game. The multiplayer is also fantastic but you won't find anyone playing which is a shame.
Don't be fooled into thinking this is a racing game. Technically, you do race but the AI drivers have no chance in winning. That's not a bad thing, it's much more fun driving around smashing into pedestrians (awesome sprites!), looking for power-ups and demolishing the other cars. The one downside is the progression, you unlock new tracks by increasing your rank but after a while you have to play old tracks again to rank up. That's not a huge deal but it was a bit of a pain for me. Luckily cheats allow you to unlock everything easily so you're free to kill however you want. I definitely recommend picking up Carmageddon.
If you're a fan of 90s FPS you should definitely pick this up. The port has been patched and is quite faithful to the DOS version. This includes all the expansions along with online multiplayer. It works great, looks great and most importantly is a quintessential 90s FPS.
