Alan Wake Remastered Review
Last year, Remedy Entertainment celebrated its 30th anniversary along with the 15th anniversary of the release of the first Alan Wake game earlier in the year. This series has been on my "to play" list for a while, but in my typical fashion, I was a bit slow to get started. After a reminder from Amazon Luna that the game was available to play, I decided to take the time to finally get into it and check out both the series and the streaming platform.Alan Wake is an atmospheric horror game about its titular character, who is an author undergoing a
Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter Review
It's time for Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter which was developed by Nihon Falcom and published by GungHo and released on PC on 19 September 2025. Are you guys ready for this one? Personally I love Nihon Falcom games, so I had to play this one too!Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter tells the story of Estelle and Joshua Bright, two young Bracers traveling across the kingdom of Liberl. The game begins with a quiet but important moment: Cassius Bright, a famous Bracer, returns home carrying a young boy he rescued, Joshua. Estelle, his daughter, immediately reacts with curiosity toward the newcomer, and
Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition Review
Death is something that, often, we try to avoid in every way, shape, and form. It's discomfort; cold and cruel. It often greets us when we least expect it with open arms, touching those around us suddenly, ruthlessly, without mercy- and leaves a trail of Emptiness and Despair in it's wake. Often we associate thoughts of Death as something quick, cold and calculating. However, despite SpiritFarer: Farewell Edition being almost entirely about Death, and many of the emotions it entails, it is really none of the afore mentioned things. While it may be wrapped in a beautifully gorgeous hand drawn facade,
Ys IX: Monstrum Nox Review
Time to dive into Ys IX: Monstrum Nox, which was developed by Nihon Falcom and published by NIS America and released on PC on 6 July 2021. Are you guys ready for this one? After the amazing experience I had with Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA (which I also reviewed right here: LINK), my expectations were really high this time!Once again, we’re back with Adol Christin, the red-haired adventurer. This time, he arrives in the city of Balduq… and gets arrested right away. Not a great start, huh? But quite interesting, at least for me...But things became even more crazy, a mysterious woman named Aprilis gives him

What a classic!
The fact I discovered in the public library of my city and rented the game when I was little. Because I didn't had internet and the rental was a couple days, I made an ISO file with Nero Burner to play the game when I pleased.
I was also lucky that I bought games in computer magazines(ComputerHoyJuegos) and Quiosks. Like having: Commandos 2, PcFútbol2001, Grouch(Rocko's Quest), S.W.A.T 3/4, Patrician III, Imperium III(Viriathus campaign being hard AF), Ground Control, NYR - New York Race, Age of Empires I & II + expansions + Mythology(+Titans), etc...
I was the lucky few that managed to buy this game before being delisted on Steam for a few €uros.
BTW if you are looking for "dead games" or want to contribute on a wiki useful for the consumers of the future, the Stop Killing Games community made a wiki with all the games that are being delisted, unplayable or in risk on dying soon:

It was still in the back of my mind, too, right up until I spied this upcoming article (I am SO behind in so much I've been wanting to write ).
But I don't think I could have done a better job - I'd already had my amazing experience with Prey well over a decade before and, though I probably could have done it some amount of justice then, I think I'd be too far distanced from it now.
I guess it worked out for the best though, since now we have this tribute - and more to look forward to!
I'm definitely glad you've listed some options for people who want to play.
I have a few other games I still think about and wish I could replay (from that awkward era of Windows 95).
I keep thinking I should just put together a dedicated machine with either Windows 95 or 98 so I can immerse myself in nostalgia, but I keep getting distracted with other things.

I did wonder if you'd avoid mentioning that part, but to be honest, that's not even the main twist, and I think a story in which Tommy actually manages to defeat the aliens and save everyone just sounds generic and would put people off, so I feel you struck a good balance with what you shared and what you left for people to experience themselves.

I NEARLY added Deadpool as my 10th suggestion, but then my sick mind thought of Ride to Hell, and I couldn't stop myself!
That and it's kind of a mainstream delisted game that has come back multiple times - still worthy of an article one day though I feel.July 06, 2026 -

I couldn't pick a better home to have it, so thank YOU for the opportunity. I absolutely couldn't think of a better title to kick it off with, and it was an absolute blast the whole way through.
There was just SO much to cover here, and while I know some might say that mentioning Enisis death was a spoiler, I felt it was enough of a "lead up to a core mechanic" that I felt ok mentioning it. But by the time I got to the end of the game, I felt I needed to really just set the stage and keep the rest under wraps, because I absolutely had no clue what to expect. I wanted to be sure that anyone else who finds a way to play this (Thanks for mentioning some additional ways!) would have the same first-time experience. Because honestly, and I think you might agree: you only get it once. And I can't say I've ever had a game absolutely put me out to dry like this one did, in SO many ways. I didn't want to ruin it for ANYONE.
Thank you for giving us a place to make ideas like this a reality.July 06, 2026 -

I absolutely do, and you have a few of them mentioned here!
Deadpool didn't make the list!?
A few of these I didn't have on my list, but I'll put them down as well!
I have another mini series brewing as well (PSX Grindhouse Horror) - so I'm trying to decide if I alternate, or I do a few back and forth.July 06, 2026 -
