You mean Mars Effect?
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 1 day ago:
Blacklight Retribution was pretty great. I aged quite early in its lifespan, during an event which gave me a special nameplate - nothing more than a participation trophy, and at the time, loads of.people used it.
Signed in a few years later to.play a few rounds, and some guy begged me to let them use my account because of that now-rare nameplate.
(I also had an extremely cool helmet and some seriously powerful guns I got for free in that game’s equivalent of a lootbox)
- Comment on HELP! Im looking for a game like CIV 6 where the point is to go to war 1 day ago:
Civ 4 at least has an “Aggressive AI” setting, where all rival nations will be a bit more… well, aggressive and warmonger-y.
- Comment on What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion? 1 day ago:
I like Anno 2070, a game which takes place in a world where the sea levels have risen to a barely-sustainable level. But it’s okay, because you can repopulate with the power of solarpunk machinery!
- Comment on Suggestions for mouse only games? 4 days ago:
X-COM 2 is fully playable with just the mouse. If you’re looking for something a bit lighter, there’s The Enchanted Cave 2, a nice little roguelite with an interesting loot system.

I hope this doesn’t awaken anything in me.
- Comment on Ubisoft says you "cannot complain" it shut down The Crew because you never actually owned it, and you weren't "deceived" by the lack of an offline version 1 week ago:
They’re actually really nice, well-made X-COM lites. Great if you don’t want to immediately throw your kids to the Chryssalids.
Rabbids still kinda suck as a concept, but the games are good enough that I can look past it

Nah, we’re all actually talking about the PSX.
- Comment on BDS calls for boycott of Microsoft and Xbox gaming products over alleged Israeli military connections 1 week ago:
The 8bitdo Ultimate 2C is very cheap as controllers go, and is also one of my favourites. Certainly my go-to for general purpose

Sacred stones? Imprisoning war???

…Not sure if you’re serious, but it’s an Altered Beast reference. Blood is “I live again”

This is heavy.

I always assumed the Stardew starfruit was a special fruit that just happens to share a name with our starfruit.
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 3 weeks ago:
I would love to experience X-COM UFO Defense, but the only X-COMs I’ve played to any extent are the two “modern” Firaxis games. Going back to the originals is a real effort, especially without having the manual to hand.
- Comment on What is everyone's favoured domain name provider these days? 4 weeks ago:
It’s definitely a thing, but not for all domain types. Not sure why.
- Comment on "You should probably just throw it away" 4 weeks ago:
“How is Windows 11 more secure?”
“It just is! Promise!”

You’re thinking of a chupathingy.

- Comment on Steam is a ticking time bomb. 5 weeks ago:
Think the oldest game I own that I haven’t yet played is Tomb Raider. Got it with my original PlayStation.

Hi there

Without a banana for scale, it’s hard to tell.
- Comment on The most influential video game of all time - BAFTA 5 weeks ago:
If you want to get technical, the first was arguably 3D Monster Maze, released in 1981. There was also Battlezone, again 1981 - though it’s debatable whether it counts as an FPS.
A more accurate answer would be id’s own Catacomb 3D, from 1991.
Wolf 3D definitely wasn’t the first by any stretch

Like $200 worth of honey?
- Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones? 1 month ago:
Great, but small Android phones are still few and far between. The Jelly Star is a notable exception, but those devices don’t seem to get much in the way of long-term support
