It's Monday, so we're moving on with another game that just might glide by unseen into our catalogue while you were playing Duke Nukem 3D.
In a recent interview, Scott Miller of 3D Realms mentioned a "reboot" of [url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/rise_of_the_triad__dark_war]Rise of the Triad. We thought this would be a great time to highlight the original and give you a 10% discount on it, so you can refresh your memories of this classic filled with an absolutely ludicrous amount of gibs flying around. Pete Davison has been sent to investigate the suspicious cult activity in an old monastery. Here's what he experienced.

Didn't know of the capture flag mode.
if you go to http://www.3drealms.com/downloads.html scroll down to rott and get number 27. Lot's of ROTT goodies that will keep you playing for months!
I really like the fact that you can select 5 different players. Which is still not common for FPS

Thanks for sharing that link!
However, you put the comma into the URL, which means it gives an error.

Please remove the comma from the address, it makes the link not work :).
update: aw, Drist beat me to it.

You forgot to mention Lee Jackson as co-composer with Prince! They basically split wrote the soundtrack.

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I've been looking for this game for about 3 years now. This game is just hilarious and ooozing with cheap gore. Can't wait to buy it.
Mash up the place!

ROTT was also the first FPS to feature talking to others via a microphone, although it was limited to LAN only :-)

I had no idea Lee Jackson & Prince were the composers of this game.
This one is entering my library for sure.

emily142536: First and foremost I wish to simply make it known I do like the expansion so far and approve of it and the direction it is going. This being said…
I do not believe Trolls should be getting the druid class before Blood Elves. While I understand that the lore of the game is changing, and many races are now picking up new and (to some) incompatible classes, I just do not see logic in excluding blood elves from being druids, while giving them the warrior class.

It is spam. This user posted the very same link once in the Hidden Gem of the Week forum un General Discussions, with an other text to introduce it.
Maybe this bot (?) is attracted by the word "gem".

Could be. But if it's a bot it's not a very good one cause it messed up the link tags :)
But i have to admit, it's a subtle kind of spam. Almost blends in...
