This is the game that got me into the Mechwarrior/Battletech franchise and lore. I still remember messing with the loadouts and paint schemes of every mech and even catching my late grandfather messing with one of my loadouts when I had to leave the computer for a bit. I still remember the soundtrack for this game, the tracks Wednesday 7(which also served as the main menu theme) and Aftermath still live in my brain and memories. I would love to see this on GOG so I could relive some of those memories and get to experience the expansions for this game that I never got to play as a kid.
Maybe my favourite Mechwarrior game in my memory- when it came out the graphical leap seemed huge, the over-the-shoulder camera really showed off how good the mechs looked, and the way that the mechs would sway from side to side as they walked looked and felt much more realistic than the movement from previous titles. This title really cemented my love for the series!
The old MechWarrior 4: Vengeance, I remember having found it by chance in an old computer store in my city and decided to buy it because the price was very good. I spent hours and hours playing the game's story, even with almost no knowledge about the universe, but they were still very fun hours, just as I remember having suffered in the escort missions. It would be a good addition to GOG.
It's like a friend to me This game lets you command a squad of Mercenary Mech pilots and you travel around doing what Mercenaries do, earning cold hard cash and not caring about anything else. It's wonderful !
I skipped straight from mechwarrior 2 to this game when I was a kid and was blown away by the graphics. Playing this game with my sidewinder force feedback stick was fun for *years,* and it's a tragedy this doesn't run properly on a modern system. Also, it's got good old-fashioned FMV acting, can't beat that.
One of my very first PC games dad bought me.
Endless hours of live action cheese and robots shooting each other. I will miss those days.
More rock and metal in soundtracks. More good vs evil....and merc arenas.

In the game, players fly a F-14 Tomcat jet fighter, gunning down enemies while avoiding incoming fire. Like OutRun, another Sega arcade game, After Burner II came in several versions, the most famous being a large, servo actuated, sit-down cabinet which resembled a cockpit and moved according to the motion of the plane onscreen. The cockpit would bank in the same direction the on-screen aircraft was banking. There was also a more basic upright cabinet version.
After Burner II has been translated and ported to numerous home computers, consoles and mobile phones; including versions for the PC Engine, Sharp X68000, Sega Mega Drive, Famicom, FM Towns Marty, Atari ST, Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Commodore 64 and Sega Saturn.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
