I'm not so surprised there isn't threads but every time I go through my old SNES collection I get the urge to post topics on here. It just doesn't seem appropriate.

Right now I'm playing Blackthorne, it's really awesome. Plays a lot like Flashback, Another World, Prince of Persia, and The Oddworld games but uses different firefight mechanics than Flashback or Oddworld.

It is in fact a tower defense that
masquerades as a tactical strategy game

I don't think one plays Mastermind for the tactical elements. One plays for the general ambiance and entertaining cutscenes.

Except once they started repeating (which was like 10 minutes) it wasn't interesting.  It was down right boring.  You can only make the same lame pun once.

I like Mastermind. This thread isn't to bitch about someone liking a game that you don't like.

Resistance and Liberation. A Source mod that, while still in beta, has some awesome and realistic play.

Maybe so, but it still kept me interested long enough to beat it. :P

I think as far as threads go, one to hold general flash games and one for dos games would be cool. Individual flash and dos games rarely reach mass popularity for the obvious reasons.

Did anyone mention Starcraft 2?

Not saying it should, but I am surprised it doesn't.

I think everybody has missed the point of this thread so widely that they can do whatever they like in it now.

Yes, he gets pissed we point out games already have threads as soon as someone posts a dupe. In fact, he made this thread as soon as I pointed out to the person who posted a Victoria 2 thread saying he couldn't believe there wasn't a thread already that there was a thread... Right in the front page...
