I may have finished some of these in the past but I don't remember them enough to justify not playing them again.

NWN1 HOTU
Nexus, which disgusted me so much on a particular mission, each successive attempt I made going worse, I quit.
Most of the Wesnoth campaigns I've played, except for Burning Suns and South Guard.
Homeworld 2, whose "adaptive AI" doomfleets (13 goddamn Vaygr battlecruiser to my 1, 10 movers, and full interceptor complement, wtf?) pissed me off too much. Skirmish was quite good, however.
Think that's it...
-
Which Nexus mission?
-
IIRC you had the logistics ship, two destroyers, the Angelwing of course, and a couple frigates. Some ships get under the logistics ship's shields and you have to chase them down, and then there's a siege laser business problem
The frigates handled the under-shield ships problem once well enough, letting my dessies and me go after mister siege laser trio. And then they proceeded to murder the Angelwing, so that was a bust. I spent a few times improving on this basic plan, and dying or the logistics ship dying, before I gave up on it.
First the frigates stopped being able to handle the under-shield ships, forcing me to commit the destroyers to support them and skirmish with Angelwing until that problem was dealt with (originally, I was trying to kill one of the destroyers, but it became rapidly apparent skirmish was the best I could do.). The siege laser proceeded to blow up the logistics ship. Then I said screw it, these frigates are expendable, and sent them to just try and delay the under-shield ships. The destroyers and Angelwing lead the charge again, and this time we actually succeeded in destroying the battleship (despite being aiming for the damned destroyers, as easier to kill, and you need three ships for a siege laser), only for Angelwing to be crippled and finished off by its two destroyer escorts while trying to disengage, right before the guys under the shield killed the logistics ship too, for insult to injury.
Progressive plans continued to show progressive deteroriation still after about 40 iterations of "how can I do this better" resulting in things becoming worse. So I uninstalled the game. I still have it but haven't played it since.
-
That mission's really hard, but it is doable and arguably even fair. I got it in four or five tries on my last playthrough.
It takes work, though. Your fit at that point may be bad - do you have your ship's power grids maxed out via lots of support generators and energy cells?
-
Homeworld 2, whose "adaptive AI" doomfleets (13 goddamn Vaygr battlecruiser to my 1, 10 movers, and full interceptor complement, wtf?) pissed me off too much. Skirmish was quite good, however.
ahhh, I had trouble with that at first too. What I used to do in the beginning was to just build up fleet at the end of some missions and use it fully. But when I came to the gate mission that tactic fell apart. So i started scuttling ships before that one until I faced the Veygr army with good numbers and them not being overtly powerful.
-
Lessee, what do I actually have on-hand and waiting for me at the moment...
--The first three Metal Gear Solid games; I'm mired near the start of the first one at the moment. The isometric camera view is total ass. :p
--Shadow of the Colossus, which I've been playing very sporadically over the course of a few years yet am only halfway through. Utterly fantastic game; if it and ICO are any indication, buying a PS3 would be worth it for The Last Remnant alone.
--.hack//Infection. I'm not really an RPG-type person in the least, but I was a big fan of .hack//SIGN, so I wanted to see how the story continued. The later games get rather pricey even used, so who knows how long it'll be before I track them down.
--Ace Combat 4 and 5, which I really haven't even touched.
--The original Devil May Cry, which has kicked my ass with its wonky control scheme and godawful fixed camera.
--No More Heroes, which I'm not particularly far into. Ah, SUDA51, you and your craziness.
--The last two Ratchet and Clank games for the PS2; I think I'm somewhere near the end of the second, but I haven't touched it in a long while.
--Any number of games on GameTap that I need to get around to. I still need to start in on Splinter Cell Chaos Theory, I'm mired near the start of the original Hitman (man, the textures are dated), and I just dipped my toe into Tachyon. Lots of other stuff on there, too.
--Above all else, Chrono Trigger. I'm parked right before the final boss on my first play-through, yet because I'm such a lazy ass, I haven't yet sat down to actually beat it yet. At least I finally understand why it's received such universal praise over the years.

Hero, if you're looking for recommended order, I'd put Jagged Alliance 2, Deus Ex, and Mech4 near the top
-
Impressive list MXLM
I would have added some of my 4X games to the list if it weren't for the fact that most of them don't have a campaign/can't be fully completed
-
*SNIP*
Lol..that mission was relatively easy. Snipe the siege laser and run back under the Fortress Shields.
I don't recall having any big problems with that one. Then again, I'm awesome :p

Lots of fond games...yes. I do have many new ones, someolder ones and a few even older ones still (those that age gracefully).

Hero, if you're looking for recommended order, I'd put Jagged Alliance 2, Deus Ex, and Mech4 near the top
I've made a little order for myself. In order of how far I've come in them and how much I think is left, basically so I can get the games of my list quicker.
1.Deus Ex (Although, considering i just did a long mission which i thought was near the end but wasn't I really should rethink it)
2.Hitman Blood Money
3.Tron 2.0
4.Fable
Also concerning mech4 (if it is vengeance you're talking about). I have a problem with that game, It freezes whenever it plays the small videos in the briefing section, the game freezes but i can hear the audio of the video continue

Think that's it.
Got bored generally means I started playing but lost interest at some point and haven't gone back to it.
Playing Xcom2 right now. Trying to finish it for once. I'm already in "super easy land" (meaning I've research MC and Disruptor Torpedoes).
Ooops, also forgot:
Prince of Persia Two Thrones

Play Jagged Alliance 2 + 1.13 mod (it's like SCP) + Wildfire + HAM3.5
-
Yeah, my JA2 is 1.13, although I've only got that one and not the others that you speak off. Any major changes they do?
-
Yes. Quite a few...quite a few.
Wildfire changes 90% of the maps - the game mp is bigger, better, more detailed and more sensible. Adds more quests and changes some quests, etc..
HAM3.5 adds supression and mostly changes the flow of the battle, but there's also more.
Lots' of things. I'm currently waiting for the latest version of SANDRO's mod,as it changes the feats/skills to work far, far better and more sensible (and balanced), fuses some and adds others.

It's not easy on the higher difficulties, unless you've got precisely the right fit waiting for that mission.
-
I had a large backlog a while ago, but finished most of the games over the last summer. Some that still come to mind are Mirror's Edge, Batman: AA, Tales of Monkey Island (want to wait until the full game is out), Incoming Forces, Blade Runner, Homeworld, several FS2 fanmade campaigns, the evil path in the TNM mod for Deus Ex, the FE mod for Battlezone 2 and the Ball mod for UT3. Maybe another Infotron playthrough as well, if I can get it to run at the right speed.

Let me confirm the point of this topic before I commit myself to writing out an unnecessary list. . .
This is for games I HAVEN'T finished right?
-
Yes, and some people haven't realized that. :p
-
Yeah I thought so. ;)
This may require a lot of thought. . I'm gonna have to list console games too as there are some classics. But i'm going to mention two here first of all.
The first cartridge I ever bought- Transbot on the master system, and Alex Kidd in miracle world, the hardest master system game ever made lol.
-

Which one was miracle world? only alex kidd game I remember was the one where youstart off in the house and go talk to people then finally you head off to arcade and get massacred by ninjas in the forest. I think I got as far as the second paper-rock scissors mofo and he'd always kill me off. Or maybe that was a different alex kidd. I dunno.
EDIT - oh wait that was Alex Kidd in High Tech world.
-
Yes, and some people haven't realized that. :p
I wonder which people these are that you speak of. All the games I have listed are games that I have NOT finished (I might have long ago, but if I do not remember then I cannot say for certain can i?)
Also. I just finished Prey, so i'm ticking that off

Pretty sure he's talking about our good friend Mr. Vega up there, who, lovely as he is, rendered his list a little bit unlikely by putting 'FS1/2' on it.

DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND, OH THREADLINGS.
This is for your back-catalog, games you have but haven't played/finished. It's not for every bloody game you own.
-
Many of my "backlogs" can't be easily... un-backlogged as they were for the old Mac.
Also, many of the games were rather open-ended, meaning you couldn't just 'win' them. In a way, the 'unwinnable' game that can still be finished is the best kind. I wish more games were like that today... the replayability of them is endless. Of course, then developers probably wouldn't be earning as much...
X-Wing (Mac) - Never finished it. Now, I'm not sure I even can.
Comanche (Mac) - Arcade helocoptery goodness. Lots of missions, also never finished.
Hornet Classic, 2.0+Korean Crisis+Mission Enhancer, 3.0, Korea Gold. - Also Mac. And yeah, I had everything Hornet :D . Except Operation Iraqi Freedom. As that was OSX/Win XP, I never bothered.
WarCraft, WarCraft II BNE, StarCraft. - All Blizzard-y fun here. WarCraft II and StarCraft were also old games I had for the Mac, but given Blizz's awesome tendancy to make a product that would ship with a game for either of the major OS's on it, I can still run them just fine. I recently picked up the original WarCraft for DOSbox.
Civ II (Mac) - Another awsome 'unwinnable' but entirely finishable game.
There's quite a few others, but I don't care to bring them up right now.

You can probably play them in an emulator or VM. I have a nice 68k Mac emulation setup with a couple hundred games in it. There are also emulators for the later PPC Macs, although most of the games you listed are available on Windows anyway.
-
Holy crap, lots of games here.

I've encoutered a major bug in Doom 3 that's keeping me from progressing. So I've taken that off the list

True, but not the old Hornet sims. And why buy/"find" abandonware for the PC when I actually have the real thing (albeit for the Mac)? I've actually never looked for a PPC emulator... What's out there?
...As far as X-Wing (or TIE Fighter, if I had that...) goes, the graphics were better for the Mac in most iterations of those games... I think TIE Fighter might have been upgraded at one point, though. DOS graphics are very grainy/low-res. The Mac versions were far better.
-
X-Wing got an anniversy addition or the like that switched the graphics to those from X-Wing vs. TIE Fighter. I don't know that TIE Fighter ever got something similar.

Look up Sheepshaver. It's the main PPC emulator that people use for games.
You're right that many Mac games had much better graphics (and sound) than the DOS versions at one point, and that remained common until games started moving to Windows around 1996.

Wolfenstein 3D

Thanks, CP5670. :yes:
The only reason I brought up TIE Fighter is that I recall looking for it in retail stores when I was younger. I remember finding a package that had in-game shots on it with textured ships; the original DOS and Mac versions were just colored/shaded polygons. Also, it was Windoze only. :mad:
...Funny thing, though: I remember seeing the Mac version in a Wal-Mart a long time ago...

Sorry to bother you again, CP5670...
What emulator would properly run Mac OS 9 under Windows? I can look into that more later myself, but seeing as you have some experience with this issue, I'll refer to you in this matter.
-
I don't actually know a whole lot about it. I'm more into 68k emulation and the games of that era.
Sheepshaver should run both OS 8 and 9. I think either of them will support the games you want.
-
Starcraft: Brood War (still need to beat campaign mode... most of my time on this game is spent in multi)
Final Fantasy VII (I'm about halfway through)
Marathon Infinity (Vidmaster's Challenge, here I come!)
Pokemon Platinum (again, about halfway through)
Also need to beat Extra stage on the following Touhou games:
Embodiment of Scarlet Devil
Imperishable Night
Subterranean Animism
Undefined Fantastic Object

Yet, it shalt not run on Windoze... :P
-
There is a Windows link right on the download page (http://gwenole.beauchesne.info//en/projects/sheepshaver#downloads). :p I know it's built on the same code base as the 68k emulator Basilisk, which works fine on Windows.

On the subject of old games a game I never finished was the addon for Syndicate. Did anyone finish this? The first game's all well and good, it's hard in parts depending upon which mission you take first but then comes the addon and I send in my squad of guys and like a dozen enemy guys rush at me with grenade pistols and **** starts exploding all over the place and BAM my squad's all dead.
Seems like the nice difficulty curve in the first game turned into a sheer vertical cliff for the add-on.

Speaking of which .... have you seen glFFE Nic Mod for Frontier? ..... nice.
If you are going to play Frontier, do it that way.

Could be this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontier:_Elite_II), but I'm not sure.
-
:yes:
Now add HTL ships to it....
-
Here is a link to the new Russian built D3D version of Fontier: Elite II
New models etc etc .... pretty heavy on system though.

I looked at Forntier: Elite II yesterday. I must say that I'm not going to spend close to 10 USD on a 1993 (now shareware) game. :P
Is the Russian mod stand alone?

Seriously, Triple Ace? Did you not read the first post in the thread?
Or are we meant to believe you haven't played FreeSpace 2? :p
-
I have hope that I will soon expand my to-play list with a bunch of GOG additions. Anyway, as it is, the Star Wars Compendium is on that list.

I did not notice anything in that first post and are you referring to my screen name or that I put FS in my list? Sorry if I seem like I'm a bit slow, I have not had a good night sleep in over a month, been sick.

It's okay, I don't mean to be snippy. We've just had a lot of people posting their list of owned games in here, but I think the intent of the thread was to post games you have but haven't played.
A bit pedantic of me really.
-
"but I think the intent of the thread was to post games you have but haven't played."
Yeah, or games that you've played but haven't finished and want to.
-
Link plox....and methof of making Frontier run in Vista too :lol:
I have no Vista to try, but I think GL Frontier should work under Vista:

That would be my fault then. I really should wait until I've gotten some sleep and able to pay more attention before I post.

Don't worry about it. Your list was a good list, it's not like it did any harm.

Is this the same as the conventional Frontier: Elite 2? ...Except for that it's been ported to Windows?
-
Now that I got the point to this thread, I removed the list I had posted. I don't actually own a game I have not finished.

Clearly then you need to buy more games.

Basically yes. It's the orginal game decompiled and ported to C using SDL and now runs on any SDL capable platform in ridiculous high resolution :)

Yay for thread derailment

My fault, I mentioned Elite ;)

:D No worries. I actually picked that up the other day, so I can officially add that to my back-log.
I've actually got quite a few DOS games which I've not neared completing, so that should be a fairly extensive list. TFX is a rather neat old sim; the manual I got for it is in text format so some of the instructions aren't terribly clear. This makes learning how to do certain things exciting... I really wish there was a way to crank up the resolution or the detail levels, but I've not see any way to do that. Games like that are just so old that...
I picked up "Beneath a Steel Sky" for free from GOG a while back; I've not actually downloaded it yet. I don't play too many games now-a-days, though I do have quite a few.

I'm curious, how did you enhance the resolution? I tried to start playing around with this the other day and didn't see a way to boost the res...

Just finished Hegemonia (Just a few minutes ago actually XD)
Turns out it wasn't even on the list XD

there seems to be a --size option to set the width of the screen. i figure it assumes a 4:3 aspect ratio. kinda wish it would do 16:9 though.
