Did u play betrayal at all? Remember anything about it?
I also! Recommend these games!
Conan (Dos) its available for dl somewhere... Side scrolling for the most part and very fun. Very atmospheric. Interesting how the older games feel so much friendlier and original... You play as conan... And slay things, find items and unlock doors. I reccomend this game to anyone mainly because its original and fun, and it holds true to the original conan style in my opinion.
Another game i recommend is Ryu ga gotoku: Kenzan! anyone familiar with the yakuza games will recognise it instantly, its a japanese import... There are loads of screenies out there. Its a Japanese medieval style game with a very brutal (in my opinion, again) combat system. I wont go into the details, but the game is very good indeed with many funny stories, and rewarding quests. The story is pretty good too. Though anyone who doesnt like hefty gore and brutal attacks should dodge it. Also anyone who cant read nihongo (japanese) should maybe contemplate gamefaqs if you really want to try it. The best part for me is the turtle racing, where you bet on turtles. Sounds absurd, but its very, very addictive. And of course the lush environments.
Finally, for any of you who havent played this game, i really really recommend it. Its called Mount and Blade, its a war centric game with side quests and a good character development engine, possibly the longevity behind it is the mods, you can download and play all kinds of great new games that are very entertaining. You have a party which you develop, troop paths, heroes and morale are all part of it... And you fight, of course...
I dont want to spoil it for anyone because i picked up this game and loved it.
If anyone plays it or looks into it let me know, i can help.
