Penny's Big Breakaway Review
Growing up in the 90s meant growing up when 3D platformers ruled the gaming scene. Games like Super Mario 64, Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Banjo Kazooie have all been such masterpieces that you can fire them up even now, 20 to 30 years later and still have a blast with them because the games are just timeless. When I saw Penny's Big Breakaway shadow dropped and that it was a 3D platformer from the makers of Sonic Mania I was immediately interested and seeing the trailer made me even more excited to play it and review it, but unfortunately, the bugs and
Vampire Hunters Review
Let's not beat around the bush, Vampire Hunters is Vampire Survivors but in first person. Ever since Vampire Survivors came out plenty of games tried to join the bandwagon of "bullet heaven" games and they all added their different spin on it to make it their own, Vampire Hunters is no different but the spin is that it's entirely in first person so the feeling you get when you play is basically half Vampire Survivors, and half Doom Eternal. Maps are arena styled, so it's a big circle with different pathways, some verticality and a bunch of spawning portals from which all
SOS OPS! Review
SOS OPS! is a game reminiscent of games like Human Fall Flat, Gang Beasts, Unreliable Delivery Service etc. where it's simple in nature and gameplay, but the biggest thing you're fighting is the controls and the physics, the feature that makes this game different then all the other ones is only in the missions themselves. You'll start by helping somebody move in their new house, or saving cats from trees to fixing amusement park rides and hosing down fires.When I say you fight against the controls I do mean it. While it is a custom to make these types of games
Computer Repair Shop Review
Do you enjoy fixing computers? Do you also enjoy ripping people off, hacking, and creating viruses? I have the game for you…kinda…While I do like the concept of Computer Repair Shop, it could definitely use some work. It’s both horrible and comical in several ways. The graphics leave me wishing they had tried a bit harder, and moving around makes me want to vomit at times, throat chop someone at others, and at really special times, both. This is even after trying to adjust the sensitivity, so good luck, and let me know if you find something that works. That said,

I started the original one a while ago and only a bit but never had a chance to finish. Shame, remastered is Epic exclusive on PC. Thanks for the review and reminding me my backlog :)

What a classic!
The fact I discovered in the public library of my city and rented the game when I was little. Because I didn't had internet and the rental was a couple days, I made an ISO file with Nero Burner to play the game when I pleased.
I was also lucky that I bought games in computer magazines(ComputerHoyJuegos) and Quiosks. Like having: Commandos 2, PcFútbol2001, Grouch(Rocko's Quest), S.W.A.T 3/4, Patrician III, Imperium III(Viriathus campaign being hard AF), Ground Control, NYR - New York Race, Age of Empires I & II + expansions + Mythology(+Titans), etc...
I was the lucky few that managed to buy this game before being delisted on Steam for a few €uros.
BTW if you are looking for "dead games" or want to contribute on a wiki useful for the consumers of the future, the Stop Killing Games community made a wiki with all the games that are being delisted, unplayable or in risk on dying soon:

It was still in the back of my mind, too, right up until I spied this upcoming article (I am SO behind in so much I've been wanting to write ).
But I don't think I could have done a better job - I'd already had my amazing experience with Prey well over a decade before and, though I probably could have done it some amount of justice then, I think I'd be too far distanced from it now.
I guess it worked out for the best though, since now we have this tribute - and more to look forward to!
I'm definitely glad you've listed some options for people who want to play.
I have a few other games I still think about and wish I could replay (from that awkward era of Windows 95).
I keep thinking I should just put together a dedicated machine with either Windows 95 or 98 so I can immerse myself in nostalgia, but I keep getting distracted with other things.

I did wonder if you'd avoid mentioning that part, but to be honest, that's not even the main twist, and I think a story in which Tommy actually manages to defeat the aliens and save everyone just sounds generic and would put people off, so I feel you struck a good balance with what you shared and what you left for people to experience themselves.

I NEARLY added Deadpool as my 10th suggestion, but then my sick mind thought of Ride to Hell, and I couldn't stop myself!
That and it's kind of a mainstream delisted game that has come back multiple times - still worthy of an article one day though I feel.July 06, 2026 -

I couldn't pick a better home to have it, so thank YOU for the opportunity. I absolutely couldn't think of a better title to kick it off with, and it was an absolute blast the whole way through.
There was just SO much to cover here, and while I know some might say that mentioning Enisis death was a spoiler, I felt it was enough of a "lead up to a core mechanic" that I felt ok mentioning it. But by the time I got to the end of the game, I felt I needed to really just set the stage and keep the rest under wraps, because I absolutely had no clue what to expect. I wanted to be sure that anyone else who finds a way to play this (Thanks for mentioning some additional ways!) would have the same first-time experience. Because honestly, and I think you might agree: you only get it once. And I can't say I've ever had a game absolutely put me out to dry like this one did, in SO many ways. I didn't want to ruin it for ANYONE.
Thank you for giving us a place to make ideas like this a reality.July 06, 2026 -

I absolutely do, and you have a few of them mentioned here!
Deadpool didn't make the list!?
A few of these I didn't have on my list, but I'll put them down as well!
I have another mini series brewing as well (PSX Grindhouse Horror) - so I'm trying to decide if I alternate, or I do a few back and forth.July 06, 2026 -

Thank you so much for your insight, and allowing me to harken back to your article!
I can't thank you enough! It was a great help to have another set of eyes and input!July 06, 2026
