DOS Month Day 30: Dark Forces

DOS Month Day 28: Blood

And back again with another shooter from the early gaming years. Shooters back then weren't as vast as the ones today especially if you look at the Xbox 360, there are so many of them that in some ways the games start looking like clones of each other. Back in the early 90s...

Here is a very interesting game. This game mostly reminds me of lode runner on the NES. Your goal is to dig holes in order for the monsters to fall in(sounds familiar?) But it gets good after this. You have to hit the enemies so that they stay in the whole and bury them like...

DOS Month Day 15: Blake Stone

Since I have been talking about FPS of the past, why not do one more? Blake Stone is one of the FPS that very few talked about. It's not that it's bad but the game is just not well known. You can relate to games like Wolfestein 3D because it was one of the very first FPS to...
