Xevious is a vertical-scrolling shooter video game. The player controls a starship known as the Solvalou to destroy the Xevious forces, who plot to take over Earth.[1] The Solvalou has two weapons for combating enemies - an "air zapper" that fires projectiles at flying enemies,[2] and a "blaster bomb" for destroying enemies stationed on the ground.[2] The Solvalou also has a blaster receptacle which will determine where the bombs will go to, used to destroy ground targets.[2]
Certain areas of the game will have a fight against the Andor Genesis mothership, which will launch an endless stream of projectiles and explosive black spheres known as "Zakatos".[2] The player can either destroy all four blaster receptacles or simply destroy the core in the center to defeat it.[2] Some parts of the game will have hidden towers known as "Sol Citadels", which can be found by bombing specific parts of an area[1] - these areas will cause the Solvalou's receptacle to flash red when flown over.[1] Yellow "Special Flags" from Namco's own Rally-X are also found in a random section of the area - collecting it will award the player an extra life.[1]
The game has a total of 16 stages, known as "areas" in-game, which will loop back to the first after completing them all.[1] Dying about 70% through an area will allow the player to start at the beginning of the next.[3] These areas have large geographical features, such as forests, sand roads, rivers and mechanical structures - certain areas will also have Nazca lines placed on the ground, notably the "condor" design.[3] The game becomes progressively more difficult as the player becomes more skilled - once the player does well at destroying a certain enemy type, a more advanced enemy type will replace it;[3] this can be reverted by destroying flashing-red "Zolback" radars found on the ground, which will 
cause the more advanced enemies to instead be replaced with easier ones.

Abrams Battle Tank gameplay PC Game, 1988




Abrams Battle Tank gameplay (PC Game, 1988)

Take the most powerful NATO tank, the M-1 Abrams, in 8 difficult missions against the Warsaw Pact forces. The four tank stations and the other aspects of the tank are quite nicely simulated, with different types of cannon rounds, coax machine guns, and all that. There's also the independent turret and track rotation commands.

Probably the best tank simulation game made in the eighities by Dynamix. You, as a pilot of US Abrams Battle tank, have to complete various missions and, of course, try to stay alive.
The game features average graphics and weak sound, but is very enjoyable to play. If you get sick of Microprose's sims (how could you???), this might be a great relaxation.

One of the first 3D tank simulator also remains to this day one of the finest. Designer Damon Slye created a game that offers both realism and great gameplay without sacrificing the fun factor. Control modern U.S. tank Abrams in various missions ranging from bombardment to escort. A great game that stands the test of time, and bodes well for Slye's later Aces series.

SimIsle Missions in the Rainforest


Since the first Sim City, I have always enjoyed Maxis games for their ability to develop highly addictive games. "Sleepless nights in Sim City" could be the book's title where I would describe the countless hours I spent on this game and especially on its sequel, Sim City 2000. Therefore, you will easily understand that I was very happy when the final version of Sim Isle arrived on my desk.
The very first thing you will recognize is the 3D isometric view like in Sim City 2000, but if you compare the two of them longer, you will notice many differences. There are no icons representing the various types of buildings and other facilities, but instead you will find photos of the agents that you can select for different tasks. The view can be changed in many ways. There are three levels of zoom from a general panorama of the island to a more appropriate "working" map to closely watch what is going on. You can also rotate the map 90ø degrees to the left or to the right depending on which arrow you selected, and also lower or raise your point of view. This way, you will gradually pass from a flat perspective with a vertical view to a ground-level viewpoint with the kind of perspective that we, humans, are used to when we look around us. However, the default view is the same as in Sim City 2000 which is far the best, and I strongly recommend everyone to keep it like this. If you are curious to see what the island orientation arrows do to your view, check it out, but you will quickly realize that it is not very useful.

 

The satellite view offers a two-dimensional map of the terrain that allows you to visualize many things such as iron and coal deposits, polluted zones, routes, industrial areas, logging spaces, etc... The colored legend indicates the zones on the map with the brightest colors for rich deposits or important amounts of pollution or traffic for example, and the contrary for poor deposits. The other arrows on the interface map are used to pan the view in the direction you want to move, but you can also use the mouse directly on the view by clicking on the right button to advance where you want to go.
Well, enough talk about the view and its interface, and let's take a look at the agents. Each agent has one, two or even three special skills such as negotiation, employment, industrial, local ecology, exploration, etc... There are 24 agents to choose from and their choice must be based on your needs as it will cost you money to hire them. Each time you play a game, a group of agents will already be at your disposal, but if you prefer new agents, you can fire those you don't like and replace them. Whenever you want to use an agent, simply click on the photo to have a copy of his record, or to send him to a place where his skills are needed. For example, if you want to build a new structure, you will need an agent with construction skills at the construction site. Another example is with the industries where you need to hire extra workers to increase the production, and therefore you will have to send an agent with employment skills to the plant.
There are two different ways to play with Sim Isle. The first one is to complete a series of scenarios (25 to be exact), each with different goals and increasing in difficulty and the second is called "freeplay" mode where you manage the island and its resources without any other goals than making the island rich and prosperous.
Sim Isle is, however, not a rehash of Sim City 2000. In Sim City, you had to start and develop the town which means you had to deal with problems such as transportation, pollution, crime, power generation, housing, business, fire protection, etc... In Sim Isle, you must not take care of roads for example as they are automatically built when you install new sites. In fact, you can no longer manage the town as it was possible with Sim City 2000. The only things you can do with towns in Sim Isle is to build hospitals, educational and recreational structures and spiritual centers. You must check that the city is supplied with power and that is about all on towns. The environment is the most important thing in Sim Isle. You must extract raw materials from mines or the forest, supply heavy industries and other factories to produce manufactured goods. These products will increase the comfort of the inhabitants and will provide the necessary financial resources to continue your expansion. However, you must take care of the environment by checking that pollution is not threatening life, that the rainforest is not being depleted, that wild life is not heading for extinction, etc...
The SVGA graphics allow many details on the map such as trucks moving on the roads, small airplanes and even boats. Other details include the vegetation which features various colors that change because of the sun's movement across the horizon, the very realistic relief on the island, etc...
I forgot to mention the notebook, an online manual with information regarding the agents, ecology, population, industries and enterprise zones. It is a nice feature that quickly gives you all you need to know about a specific subject. The graph option will display charts with a wide range of statistics about your production and the resources.

Excitebike GAME


 

 Excitebike is a classic motocross racing video game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1984. In Excitebike, the player controls a motocross rider who must navigate a series of tracks filled with obstacles and jumps while racing against other riders.

The game features two different modes: Design mode and Selection mode. In Design mode, players can create their own custom tracks using a variety of different obstacles and terrain types. In Selection mode, players can race on pre-designed tracks either solo or against other riders.

Excitebike was one of the first racing games to feature a track editor, which allowed players to create their own custom tracks. This feature added an extra level of replayability to the game and helped to make it a classic among retro gaming enthusiasts.

The game also features a unique temperature mechanic, where the player's bike can overheat if they overuse their boost or stay in the air for too long. This can lead to a temporary loss of control, making it a key factor in strategy during races.

Excitebike was well-received upon its release and is still considered a classic among retro gamers. The game has since been re-released on several Nintendo consoles, including the Nintendo Switch Online service, where it is available to play for subscribers.

Top Gun NES game

Top Gun NES game

 


Top Gun is a flight simulation video game developed by Konami for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in 1987. The game is based on the 1986 movie of the same name, which starred Tom Cruise as a fighter pilot training at the United States Navy's elite Fighter Weapons School, also known as Top Gun.

In the game, the player takes on the role of Maverick, the main character from the movie, and must complete a series of missions while piloting an F-14 Tomcat fighter jet. The missions include dogfighting with enemy planes, bombing enemy bases, and completing a landing sequence on an aircraft carrier.

The game features a first-person perspective from inside the cockpit of the F-14 Tomcat, with the player using the NES controller to control the plane's speed, altitude, and weapons systems. The game also features a radar display to help the player locate enemy planes, as well as a fuel gauge that must be managed during longer missions.

One of the most memorable features of Top Gun is its soundtrack, which features the iconic "Danger Zone" song by Kenny Loggins, as well as other 80s-style rock tracks.

Top Gun was generally well-received upon its release, although some players found the game's difficulty to be quite challenging. The game's popularity was also boosted by the success of the movie, which was a box office hit at the time. Top Gun has since become a cult classic among retro gaming enthusiasts and fans of the movie.
 
 
 The Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) is a home video game console that was developed and produced by Nintendo. It was released in Japan in 1983 as the Famicom (short for Family Computer) and in North America in 1985 as the NES.

The NES was a major success for Nintendo, helping to revive the video game industry after the North American video game crash of 1983. The console was known for its iconic design and library of classic games, many of which are still popular today.

The NES used cartridges to store game data, which allowed for a wide variety of games to be released for the console. Some of the most popular games for the NES include Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda, and Metroid, among others.

The console also introduced several innovations to the gaming industry, including the use of a directional pad (D-pad) for controlling characters, and the ability to save game progress using battery-backed memory.

In addition to its library of games, the NES was also known for its accessories, such as the Zapper light gun, the Power Glove motion controller, and the R.O.B. (Robotic Operating Buddy) accessory.

The NES was eventually succeeded by the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) in 1991, but it remains a beloved console among retro gaming enthusiasts. The console has also been re-released in various forms, including the NES Classic Edition and the Nintendo Switch Online service, which offer a selection of classic NES games for modern players to enjoy.

Raiden II PC GAME download



  Raiden II Windows

Read Full Review

Raiden II is an excellent sequel to Raiden, one of the best shoot em-ups ever made. The game is not very well known due to its limited distribution (sold in Japan only, ported by Cyberfront Studios), but that doesn't stop us from honoring it here, of course ;)

The plot picks up where Raiden left off. It's been 3 years since you utterly destroyed the alien forces and sent the survivors packing. But the angry stragglers, bent on revenge, returned to their planet and raised a vicious army. Now they're back, tougher, meaner and better armed than before. To turn the tide of battle, the members of Earth's Think Tank regroup, and develop an even more powerful and maneuverable fighter craft... and guess who they put in the cockpit?

Raiden II has all the addictive gameplay of its predecessor, this time with even sharper graphics and a rocking soundtrack. The graphics are very more detailed, with excellent 3D effects (e.g. flying enemies cast shadows on the ground, so you could distinguish them from ground-based enemies). In contrast to most shoot em-ups where enemies you destroy just blow up and disappear without a trace, enemies in Raiden II blow up, turn into a wreckage, plummet to the ground, and only thenexplode on impact. This causes a lot of debris to fly around the screen, which in turn cause nice ripple effects on the grass and even on the water once they land -- very, very nice. Background graphics are also excellent, especially in the volcanoes levels.
