Squad 51 vs. the Flying Saucers (PC)
Stylised old school horizontal shooter. Broke the golden gaming rule in purchasing a game based purely on aesthetics. Not worked out too bad, it looks gorgeous and the devs have nailed the 50's b-movie vibe. I've never really liked horizontal or vertical shooters and the introduction of ludicrous bullet hell mechanics over the past few years put me off them even more. This isn't bullet hell but the fact its graphics are black and white and you have stuff (pretty stuff) going on in the background, foreground and in front and behind you makes it all too easy to get distracted and clipped by an enemy bullet. You have an energy bar so thankfully there are no one hit kills though. I'll stick with it because it looks so damn nice, reckon it'll probably only take an hour or so to complete. ![]() |

Doom3 is one of the most tense games I've ever played. Dark room and headphones (essential), never have there been so many "phews" when I complete a level.
The Mars levels drag a bit but once things start going demonic and you go are transported to hell its amazing. The expansion pack is worth a go too. id totally ripped off Event Horizon. |

I played Doom 3 when it came out, but I think then I only had a 4:3 CRT monitor. But now, like you say, in the dark, headphones on, on a semi decent rig, it is well stressful. That shitty little torch that only illuminates about a third of the screen and cuts out after 30 seconds ![]() |
