return to castle wolfenstein is one of the worst shooters
i've ever played.

rockstar definitely has the upper hand, with the vice city
and max payne games.

then again, deus ex 2 is my new favorite game.

MTV MG 2 was not nearly as good as the first.

The sample quality was not as sharp, and the interface was
just not as friendly.

If you care, all the music i currently have on my website is
made entirely of Music Generator :) www.lacedmilk.com , im
ATFT.

The bitmap brothers of course, and than in no particular
order: microprose, sensible software, team 17 , taito,
valve, SSI (if only for sword of aragon which is brill),
konami, capcom, codemasters, digital illusions (for pinball
fantasies on the Amiga), ravensoft, ID software and finally,
the team behind duke nukem forever (for the sheer
entertainment value of the eternal delay)

make the best playing,looking and funkiest soundtracked
games ever for their time. What they managed to produce out
of that good old amiga puts all of today's developers to
shame.
- Speedball 2
- Xenon 2
- Magic Pockets
- Gods
- Chaos Engine
- Cadaver

Nintendo. It often seems like they're running in place, but
at least it's an awesome, magical place full of gooyness.

I can't remember if I meant to type ''goodness'' or
''gooeyness'' there, but both are acceptable adjectives.

Seems like I've been playing a ton of UBIsoft games lately,
as well.

an ancient home computer called the Commodore Amiga. I guess
it was a hit machine only in Europe back in the 90's.
However, some of their awesome classics got ported to the
sega and nintendo systems, and I believe they've redone
speedball 2 for the gameboy advance to look play and feel
exactly like the original so that one should be rocking.
