So does Ubisoft still require always-online for single-player games on PC?

My Top 11 Halloween Games for 2013 #08: Doom 64


Posted on 10/22/2013 at 06:18 PM | Filed Under Blogs

Some of the rare stuff, particularly that which has no digital release, is becoming harder and harder to find. Tales of Destiny and Tales of Destiny II are now never less than $100 on Amazon or eBay. I was lucky enough to find both games locally for far less than eBay or Amazon. Panzer Dragoon Saga is impossible to find for less than $450 online. I paid $180 for the UK version out of a work bonus.

They're supposed to be making a Syberia III. I think its release is for 2014 or 2015.

My favorite Kongregate game is a text adventure called "Don't S*** Your Pants." LOL.

This is not a joke. Seriously.

Since it was released in 1992, around the time CD-ROM drives first became popular on PCs, and mostly uses FMV and pre-rendered CG, your computer should be able to run it with little effort. You can either get it from Good Old Games really cheaply (comes with a .MP3 version of the soundtrack if you buy it from them). You can also get it on iOS and maybe Android too.

I played this game. I rented it in 1997 when it came out, right after I got my new N64. I later found it at Vintage stock for about seven dollars.

Any virtual console releases would have to be approved by Bethesda, which now owns Id Software and the Doom franchise. Doom 64 is a non-issue to them.

I've played some of the Sierra adventures, including King's Quest and Leisure Suit Larry, LOL. I've actually toyed with the idea of buying the LSL remake that was funded through Kickstarter from Steam.

My favorite point-and-click adventures were Dreamweb, a seriously creepy cyberpunk adventure where you're either saving the world from destruction or acting as a serial killer driven by paranoid psychosis (the game and the "Diary of a Mad(?) Man" that came with it are ambiguous on that point), which had great music, and the Tex Murphy series that blends the film-noir detective genre with Philip K. Dick's science-fiction stories (Blade Runner, Total Recall). The game's original creators bought the rights to Tex Murphy back and Kickstarted a new Tex Murphy Game. Atlus is going to release the new TM game on Steam next year, and I will definitely be getting it.

My other favorite in this genre is The 7th Guest. The music is the best part of that game. I have the entire soundtrack on my iPhone.

Eulogy to an old lover: Street Fighter Alpha 3

I wonder if they ever will, honestly. Politicians, media, and parents' groups have been blaming video games for almost 40 years now, and show no signs of slowing down.

I downloaded your game.

I really need to sit down and work with RPG Maker a little more myself. Time and the games I already have simply haven't allowed me to really devote time to making my own game, though, especially when I work long hours and I'm enjoying the abundance of the kinds of games that I enjoy that we seem to be getting lately. I haven't seen so many great Japanese RPGs in a year since the PS2 days.
