Then we probably won't figure it out. Mass Effect 2 was the best guess with what little you remember

Dunno if this is the right place to ask (Mod feel free to move it?) . Anyway, I have been looking for ages for this old game.

 

It look like xcom but it isnt . It has normal soldier. That can crouch and hide behind stuff.

 

I brought it from a store, at a very low price...and that was years ago . Like 20+ years ago.

But for the life of me, I can't find it in Abondoware or any old games website like Home of the Underdog.

if anyone seen a game like that, plz let me know. 

Wages of War?

[E.RedMark]

No. Not that one, and the view is different. From Top view like. But you know, you start off in a corner? with crap you can hide behind. Very simple..game.

Newer, older? Than Wages of War that is

I absolutely loved Sang-Froid! Also, it has some amazing music. The intro track is imho a joy to listen to.

Fits the game perfectly, too.

Both Evil Within games released on GOG

As a surprise ninja release, 2nd chapter of Indonesian indie RPG Celestian Tales. I enjoyed the first one enough to recommend this one as well.

Winter "Summer" sale on now. And of course, it's not even summer in the NH yet which I'm sure contradicts some sort of EU false advertising guidelines.

Apart from the System Shock remake and Desperadoes 3* demos mentioned in the Random News thread there are also new releases of Prey (2017) and Metro Exodus (both sans denuvo, of course). Bit more expensive than the single dollar that I spent to play them and Outer Worlds on gamepass, but Prey at least is worth every cent for anyone who is a fan of Deus Ex/ System Shock and similar games. And despite ranting at it back in January I'll probably get Exodus too, since it's a game I should love, and I'm absolutely determined to like a Metro game at some point or die trying.

*Shadow Tactics by the same devs in on special too for a bit over a fiver, highly recommended for anyone who likes squad stealth type gameplay.

Three new games became free on GOG. One of them is Warwind, pretty original classic RTS.

Supreme Commander and Forged Alliance added.  Well so is SupCom 2 but who cares about that.

[majestic]

Heh, this would be one for the unpopular gaming opionions thread but I never cared much for TA or any of its offshoots. The allure of early RTS games was never the gameplay for me, but everything else.

Sadly the genre evolved into being all gameplay and no story, what with the success of MOBAs.
