    English Big Box

    Aliens versus Predator offers three separate campaigns, each playable as a separate species: Alien, Predator, or human Colonial Marine. Each player character has different objectives, abilities, and weapons. The single-player campaign presents the player with a conventional series of levels to progress through that are designed around the abilities of each character.

    As the Colonial Marine the player uses a number of weapons to combat Aliens and Predators. The marine wears armor for protection and uses an image intensifier and flares to improve visibility in dark areas.

    When playing as the Predator the player uses a variety of weapons from the Predator films such as wrist blades, a throwing disc, and shoulder-mounted energy weapons. The Predator is the most durable of the three player characters and can survive falls from greater heights than the human. The player can use a cloaking device to become invisible and several different modes of vision to detect enemies, including an infrared vision mode and a mode sensitive to electrical systems.

    As an Alien the player can explore most of the game’s environments freely, even climbing across walls and ceilings. The Alien has no weapons, however, using its claws, tail, and jaws to attack enemies. The screen is distorted into a fish eye lens effect to reflect the Alien’s field of view. The player can also use a form of echolocation in dark areas and can detect pheromones to discern human or Predator enemies. The Alien can drop from any height without injury and is the fastest of the three player characters.

    Several bonus levels allow each player character access to portions of the missions of the other characters. To allow the marine and Predator characters to traverse through the areas of the Alien missions, the player is supplied with a jet pack for the marine and a grappling hook for the Predator.

  • Conquest 6-Pack

    Sold By: Retro8BITShop

    The Conquest 6-Pack from Auran once again combines six classic strategy and real-time strategy games into one powerful combination that includes six full games. Gamers can visit a plethora of different worlds, from the far flung reaches of cosmos in O.R.B. II – Off World Resource Base in a battle between two powerful alient races or the war torn cities of Jagged Alliance 2 that pits players against players in a deadly game of cat and mouse. Whether it’s the lands of Europe and the New World in Europa Universalis II that has the player in a made race of conquest and discovery or the battles of Julius Caesar in Celtic Kings, this entertaining six pack guarantees gamers almost a year of endless gameplay.

     

    Although some of these appear a little dated, the majority of titles still hold up quite well to games of similar genre and were the true precursors to modern strategies games. Once again, Auran have priced this magnificent boxed set at $29.95 that can be purchased online at www.auran.com or at your preferred software retailer.

     

    Interestingly enough, there is only one game in this set that is based in the future that has the gamer collecting resources and battling their alien opponent in a battle for conquest. Celtic Kings and Legion are your more standard real-time strategy games that is similar to games such as Warcraft or Age of Empires.

     

    Whereas Patrician and Europa Universalis II are your more intense strategy games that is more about micro and macro-management of your universe as opposed to Jagged Alliance which is more your strategic game that is in the same vein as Commandos that has the player controlling a squad of elite militants.

    Day of the Tentacle, also known as Maniac Mansion II: Day of the Tentacle, is a 1993 graphic adventure game developed and published by LucasArts. It is the sequel to the 1987 game Maniac Mansion. The game’s plot follows Bernard Bernoulli and his friends Hoagie and Laverne as they attempt to stop the evil Purple Tentacle — a sentient, disembodied tentacle — from taking over the world. The player takes control of the three and solves puzzles while using time travel to explore different periods of history.

    Dave Grossman and Tim Schafer co-led the game’s development, their first time in such a role. The pair carried over a limited amount of elements from Maniac Mansion and forwent the character selection aspect to simplify development. Inspirations included Chuck Jones cartoons and the history of the United States. Day of the Tentacle is the eighth LucasArts title to use the SCUMM engine, and the company’s first title to feature voice acting.

    The game was released simultaneously on floppy disk and CD-ROM to critical acclaim and commercial success. Critics focused on its cartoon-style visuals and comedic elements. Day of the Tentacle has featured regularly in lists of “top” games published more than two decades after its release, and aspects have been referenced in popular culture.
