"We have Max Payne at Home"
The release of Max Payne in 2001 spawned several games which made use of the popular 'Bullet time' mechanic.
But one game took a little more than bullet time as an inspiration, that game is El Matador. Is it a worthy follow up to Max Payne or a cheap cash in?

There's been dozens of games which have featured Area 51 in some way or another, but only a handful have centered their entire games around it. Released in 2005, the game known simply as Area 51 saw the player take control of Ethan Cole, A member of an elite hazard team, voiced by none other than David Duchovny. But 15 odd years later, is the game still playable? And just how well has it held u...

The Doom engine was no stranger to first person shooters in the early to mid 90's. But amongst a sea of FPS's, a first person RPG was launched using the engine.

It did get a remaster
I've only played the ps2 version. I don't pc game.i hope the allow me to buy on playstation one day ive never played the sequel I know I'm hoping for alot but that's just how I play. Startrek games should always be on a big tv.
Yes
The dim-lights is just the flavour from the Unreal Engine, like Deus Ex, like Clive Barker's Undying, and like Unreal itself as well as Unreal Tournament.
It's not a "survival horror", how is it "survival"? It's an action horror game with 0 survival elements. You didn't explain this, I really wanted to hear what kind of bullshit would you say about it being "survival".
Nice retrospective! I had a great time playing through the Doom RPG on the 50x50 screen of my very first Motorola flip phone. So glad to hear it has modern ports too!
I really enjoyed this game in 97. The asethetics is very trek. Alas I never beat the final level. Would love to play a remake.
shame, the game looks really fun, but those issues sound very glaring. Maybe one to get on sale when I'm desperate for a Max Payne style experience that isn't Max Payne, Stranglehold or El Paso everywhere...
I played this game as a kid. When i saw the video, i literally stopped what i was doing, made a coffee and sat down. Now to unpause and enjoy. Keep em coming mate.
Cheers for the super kind words! Enjoy the coffee 😀
I got the "Commander Keen complete pack" for a few bucks on steam. To bad it didn't contain aliens abducted my babysitter, that was the game I liked the most.
This game is mt childhood. I definitely liked thst you made a video about it.
Absolutely wonderful game, agreed with everyone else. Very hard at times but honestly that made it better. It was nice to play a challenging game and there were no shortage of them back in those days
The review in this video you gave for this game was solid. I never was able to finish it due to the game crashing, it was during the mission where the USS Sovereign was ordered to get as close to what remained of the vasuvi star to find out what happened. On another note. I've been curious to know if you've played any of the Freespace games that I told you about?
Cheers for the kind words! I have the Freespace games on my "To be played list"... a list which I will hopefully be putting a dent in over the holiday period!
@@azordash_games Good to hear, there's is one last thing you need to know. Both Freespace 1 and 2 have training missions at the beginning and I think 1/4 through their campaigns. Each of them has a skip button in the mission briefings, but It's important that you don't skip them on your first runs, trust me.
the premise of going through hell and time and visual story telling was amazing. I wish we had more of this sorta stuff.
Hi! What do you think about Star Trek Elite Force II?
I love this game, this game was my jam back in high school
My first Fps ever. I've beaten it multiple times to this day and love it the same ❤
I've never played this game before. Is this game good?
Thank you! Star Trek: Dominion Wars is amazing. DW is completely different from Star Wars: Starfighter.
Thank you! I love this game so much. May the force be with you!
Thank you so much! This is my favorite game ever. ^-^ What do you think about Star Wars: Republic Commando?
Cheers for the kind words. I enjoyed Republic Commando! I will certainly revisit it for the channel at some stage!
Something about the graphics reminds me of The Conduit on Wii. Was this made by High Voltage, or is it using the same engine? Like the Spas-5 model is so similar, and the enviroment and lighting seem similar. Not to mention the conspiracy theory angle of the story, maybe The Conduit was a spiritual sequel by some developers who didn't get to make the real sequel. Or its just a similar artstyle on a game developed a few years prior on similar tech, and coincidentally looks similar.
I had completely forgotten about the conduit! I think it was actually also available on Smartphones... I don't have a functioning Wii today, but it might be something I need to look into!
@azordash_games it wasn't on phones, but I know exactly which game you are thinking of. I just forget the name of it, unfortunately. (Edit: Nova 3 was the name!) I don't know much about High Voltage's history outside Conduit 1 and 2, and that one E3 where they showed off a nearly finished Halo 2 port on 3DS that went nowhere (not to be confused with the rumored port of Halo 1 on DS lite).
For me, this is better than the two recent ones. Hope we get a sequel to this continuity
This Game is Based!
Speak faster please. Even 5sec of watching this video feels like waiting behind a great grandmother paying for $50 of groceries with pennies.
Nice video, I played the Original's Singleplayer recently (modded) and I gotta say that at least to me the game still holds UP both modded and Vanilla. What was kinda surprise to me is that you used the v226 of the game and not one of the OldUnreal community patches (227k is the latest if I'm not mistaken), but yeah nice video
The pc version is alright woth so.e tweaking
Man this game was amazing back in the day, wish it would get remastered
My aunt was the producer for the radio show coast to coast (art bell/ george noory) and she would get free stuff. She got this and psy ops the mind gate conspiracy and gave them to me. I had so much fun with these games. This one was alright but psi ops was nuts
I remember getting this from gamefly back in the day and enjoying it enough to buy it. Wild that the Air Force pushed it.
so - so game, but I remember being stunned by these rifle scopes, not even today a standard.
It's crazy
Enjoyed this game so much when i was younger. This is one of those games that could do well with a full fledged remake with a darker atmosphere and story
I agree... I think with a "retelling" of the story and modern updates it could do well.
Leave this hell, & go save your world- Edgar ❤💯
Game was ahead of it's time, one of the weapons scopes without using it still captures the full layout of the room your in😂❤
That's amazing considering it was 2005 you don't see to often in modern You do here and here most times it's just a texture
In regards to the scores this game got strapped with. a big thing to remember is at the time you had games like Halo 2 killzone metroid and Half-life2 that it had to contend with
One of my biggest issues with the game is the writing. It's way too pretentious and edgy for Half-Life.
Good video mate, keep it up 👍
Cheers for the kind words!
Believe it. It's how they exert control on the ideas the game was going to present.
Loved the game, opening is very memorable. Felt that it got too repetitive in the later half, the same thing over and over. Seemed to be a common problem of the generation of games.
I remember I got this on a demo disc from the xbox magazine like back in 2005. Loved the graphics and how the gunplay felt different.
I remember this one too. Remember Psi-Ops?
Me and my brothers would play this for hours, this was the first game I ever remember playing and thinking it was halo
That arcade was the shit. My dad and I used to beat the hell out of that game when I was a kid.
STAY LOW
I honestly really enjoyed this game for what it was. The story was ridiculous lol, but it was entertaining at least.
Subbed
Larson is played by Seska. Yes, THAT Seska. And Diaz was played by Hugh. Yes, THAT Hugh.
I liked Area 51 2005. Doesn't dethrone Halo as my favorite 6th gen FPS game, but I enjoyed the campaign. Really dont get to this day why Midway didn't follow it up with a legit sequel. Blacksite Area 51 has nothing to do with Area 51 2005. Shame WB Games owns the IP. They've done nothing with this, The Suffering, or Psi Ops The Mindgate Conspiracy. Hoping Nightdive Studios one day remasters these games for both current consoles and pc.
what was the last doom clone anyway?
Duke was good. But it had its problems. I downright hated some of the levels and especially their verticality which hinders game in total cause it's not true 3D game. Bit overrated title in the end game for me.
7:50 Nah,nah,nah. That's just wrong. 45 degree angle with strafe and running is the way to go fast 😏 Plus Doom2 for me is the real Doom. More mayhem the better. Though it still bothers that I didn't complete Vanilla Doom 2 on Ultra Violence. Last level just got me too exhausted, always missing one rocket...
I personally liked Q2 and Q4 more than original. I never liked OG Quake's... Solutions, ie. Spawn or whatever the f that blue blob is. Multiplayer is ok, but still for me for pure FPS multiplayer mayhem, Doom it is in it's pureness and perfect weapon set.
