Well, that didn't stop Doom and Wolfenstein 3D from being great games, now did it?

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey really surprised me, but in a bad way. From the trailers I had seen I was expecting a masterpiece adventure game that bordered on a RPG. What I got was an absolutely butchered game that barely resembled a point-and-click adventure game, except they threw in horrible controls and a lackluster combat system. The story was also a horrible mess of clichés and bad writing and also had a ton of continuity errors with the first game in the series, not to mention the voice acting was so bad it made Deus Ex seem like a masterpiece in comparison. Definitely a game I regret ever buying, though I doubt you can blame me as I am still a huge fan of the first game and I thought from the trailers that it was going to be great. And now Ragnar Tørnquist is talking about making another sequel. I wanna punch the guy's face for raping his own franchise...

I think we can expect id to churn out games faster now that they have more resources.

Mario Party 8

Your friends are either very young or very avant garde.

That surprises me a lot to be honest.

I don't think anyone should really try and accomplish 3000-something posts in a week.

Over here they are anything but obscure.

I agree. This way we can keep track of the most popular ones.

Star Fox 64 gets a vote from me.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

I think it's not our business to deal with this. Machinima.com will probably file a complaint if the user has broken any copyright laws.

Yes there most certainly is! http://kentie.net/article/dxguide/ DX10 renderer, HD textures & lighting, better visuals in every respect... I should get that for DX1.

Topic moved to Gaming In General as this is clearly a gaming topic. Super Metroid for number 2.

I bought it at the Steam sale at least.

Serious Sam HD First Encounter co-op with a friend

Yep, installed it with the 1.0 version and the game looks nicer.

Yeah, installed the HD pack, the game looks a lot nicer now. Other than that, I don't really have any more problems now. But I wish I knew why the 1.2 version decides to crash while the 1.0 version runs without problem.

Try compatibility mode for XP... That's all it took last time I tried. I'll reinstall shortly and tell you my exact steps though if that doesn't work for you. Yeah, tried that on the 1.2 patched version, didn't do twat for me. The 1.0 version runs perfectly though, actually.

Well, it works now, but sure, HD graphics are awesome.

Okay, I figured out that simply running the original unpatched 1.0 version of the game seems to work fine.

Yeah, you should definitely check it out.

I have the 1.2 patch, and I am Googling as well.

I play it with the duct tape mod though.
