I was looking through my Steam library today and realized quite a few of the games I own are one's I won't get to ever play again. What's even strange is most of them are dead games, not because they were bad gameplaywise or mechanically, but do to bad decisions by the publishers/developers.
The games that I wish I could still play:
The games that can stay dead:
How many dead games do you have? Which ones do you wish were still around, and which ones should stay in their coffins?
The games that I wish I could still play:
- Firefall - Jetpack MMO with first/third person shooter mechanics and PVP arenas.
- Global Agenda - Jetpack MMO with first/third person shooter mechanics and PVP arenas...
- Lawbreakers - Jetpack class based arena shooter with unique class features.
- Hawken - Mech based PVP arena with various mech chassics and... jetpacks.
- Tribes Ascend - Jetpacks, the game.
- Nuclear Dawn - Competitive first person shooter on large Battlefield style maps with a RTS commander deploying buildings, turrets and cover. There was probably a jetpack in there somewhere too.
- Dirty Bomb - Fast paced team based PVP shooter. A kind of Quake meets COD. No jetpacks that I'm aware of, but there was parkour.
- Monday Night Combat - A free-to-play team arena game with MOBA mechanics built into the levels/gamemodes.
The games that can stay dead:
- All Points Bulletin - I recall very little except it was kind of like GTA Online without the good part.
- Alien vs Predator - Asymmetric multiplayer with three teams OR a co-operative wave based shooter. The former was interesting, but imbalanced, the later was dark and boring.
- Evolved - Jetpacks? Check. Classes? Check. Co-op mechanics? Check. I honestly liked Evolved but I wish it had gone the Monster Hunter route instead of the competitive shooter.
