Split Fiction Review
As a fan of two-player co-op games, I was very excited to see Hazelight Studios putting out their third game, Split Fiction, in the spring of last year. As a gamer severely lacking a budget for games, I immediately decided to wait a year or two for a good sale. I suppose the asking price wasn't too awful, especially for a high-quality game with strong voice acting, excellent sound, amazing graphics with interesting world design, and some rather unique gameplay elements thrown in here and there. And, just like with A Way Out and It Takes Two, the game supports local
The Outer Worlds 2 Review
This is not the usual type of game review I do, since I largely focus on indie games, so this review will be somewhat different and more comprehensive (aka long) than typical. There is a lot of game and a lot to discuss and it deserves a lot of attention.The Outer Worlds 2 was developed by Obsidian Entertainment, who brought you not only the first in this series, but also Fallout: New Vegas, the Pillars of Eternity series (one of my favorites), Knights of the Old Republic 2 (another favorite), Pentiment, South Park: Stick of Truth, Neverwinter Nights 2 (another favorite),
Somber Echoes Review
Somber Echoes is a platform heavy side-scrolling Metroidvania with progressive mechanics and an extensive interconnected maze of a world to explore. It feels a bit like playing Ori, if Ori was set in a dark, mostly destroyed spaceship and had multiple endings, each with their own boss battle. Co-developed by Norwegian based indie Rock Pocket Games and Lav Games, it’s part sci-fi, part post apocalyptic, and also draws from Greek and Roman mythology for both the story and impressive 2.5 D visuals built in Unreal Engine 5. It was originally released for PC on January 21st and later on PS5 and Xbox
DEADZONE: Rogue Review
Deadzone: Rogue is a roguelike FPS that takes you into the depth of space. Waking up with no recollection of who you are, or even WHERE you are, make your way through waves of enemies both mechanical and biological to figure out what the hell has happened and why you're here. Both developed and published by Prophecy Games, they've come into the FPS Roguelike space with guns blazing. As a massive fan of the genre, I was eager to sink my teeth into this one, and what I thought I was walking into did NOT end up being what I walked
Nemezis: Mysterious Journey III Review
Nemezis: Mysterious Journey III is the third game in the Mysterious Journey game series developed by Polish developers, Detalion Games.Detalion, their original name, started making games in 1999 with "Reah: Face the Unknown", their second game being the 1st of the mysterious Journey series in 2001, using their own made V-Cruise Engine. The 2nd in the series was in 2003 and in 2005 they stopped developing under that name after just 6 games but some members teamed up with City Interactive to work on other things. 16 years later in 2021, some of them got back together and released this game

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
