Westwood studios. Command and conquer tiberian sun was my very first computer game, which I loved dearly (and still have on my computer since it’s freeware now and has been fan patched for modern systems)

Well and then came EA.

@GregorGizeh @Telorand you can get it free now?? I had given it up for dead...

GregorGizeh,

Yup, it’s Freeware since a few years now and has even spawned a brilliant standalone mod using its engine. Here is the link:

And if you want to check out the mod I mentioned, it’s called twisted insurrection. It delivers on many things that were lacking in the original, and has an extensive OST with some pieces by frank klepacki himself (made a lot of the music used in the original series). You can check out some trailers on YouTube. Mod Link:

How has no on said this yet.

Booting Halo was my go-to for like 10 years as the first three games came out. Literally 10s of thousands of hours.

baconicsynergy,

Bungie gave me some of the best gaming childhood memories.

So much Halo. I was obsessed with it as a kid. The gameplay, the story… It was a SciFi gaming masterpiece. Super fond memories.

I’m also a HUGE fan of classic Marathon and Pathways Into Darkness. People don’t give these games the credit they are due, and everyone should play them. You can find the Alephone engine, open-sourced by Bungie, and play all of the Marathon games and community scenarios completely free. A well-respected community member even ported Pathways to the engine.

Telorand,

Depends on people’s age! I was beyond childhood when that came out, but it was a game changer for me getting to play a FPS that was couch co-op. All FPS games to that point were mostly (all?) multiplayer competitive. PvE was always a solo experience until then!

I always loved the https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TCfUJbZ5LJU from Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines. Rik Schaffer was on fire for that whole soundtrack.

Westwood Studios, Sierra Online

tuckerm,

I never played the classic "Quest" games that Sierra made, but they published a bunch of really good ones from other developers, too.

I remember their logo coming up before each of the Half-Life, SWAT, Tribes, and F.E.A.R. games. I was always like, "dang, someone there knows how to pick 'em."

Psygnosis, later known as Studio Liverpool.

Sony shut them down a few years ago. Man seeing that old owl logo hits me hard in the nostalgia bone.

BlameThePeacock,

Harmless games, also bought and shut down by Sony.

They seem to consider only massive franchises like GoW and TLoU and Horizon worth their time… But most gamers need variety outside the mainstream game genres, so I don’t see why they are shutting down anything with a smaller fanbase.

Telorand,

Maybe those smaller teams create tools or assets (or maybe it’s the team itself) that they want.

Capitalists can’t let anyone have fun when there’s profit to be made.

    Elden Ring’s main theme is literally the only video game song I have in my normal music rotation.

    But only because Lunar Silver Star Story’s isn’t on Spotify.

    dgbbad,

    I love the Lunar SSS intro, but I’m still partial to the OG Sega CD intro. It gets me pumped up to this day.
