I’ve never heard about it. Lot’s of humor in the original one. I’m laughing while playing.

I had to return it as it wouldn't save the games - make sure you check that feature before you get too far in a playthrough
Damn, I miss Tribes 2 and Ascend.

Yesterday I tried it and it worked flawlessly :
https://cncnet.org/red-alert
Few years ago, EA released as freeware the initial Red Alert game on PC.
However this game was for DOS or Win95.
CnCNet team created an installer for modern OS (Win XP, Win 7, Win 8, Win 10, Mac OSX, Linux, ...). They also created a lobby for LAN and online games (cross OS !).
For those who want to (re-)try this old school RTS, don’t hesitate it’s free !
Install instructions are here : https://forums.cncnet.org/topic/116...n-windows-xp-vista-7-8-10-linux-mac-32-64bit/
During the install, just select « online installation » and tick « install disc 2 » too to get the full game with all the content (cut scenes, ...).

I've beaten the first level of the darkest dungeon, sending the shuffling horror back to the abyss
Now I am beginning to see things as they truly are.....

Just finished it. Love the atmosphere of the game. There's a sequel in the works as well.

I just see that you’ve worked only on the first 3 GT games.
The 3rd one is the reason why I bought a PS2. Graphics were so amazing.
My favourite being the 4th and 2nd where I managed to collect all the black cars.
And GT 4 & 5 are why I’ve not bought a PS4 and the latest version of the game. By not enabling LAN (which I think was technically coded in game after some research I did at the time).
In which Crash Bandicoot have you worked ? Knowing that after CTR there is no CB anymore.

I just put my hands recently on the Collector’s Edition DVD which contains AOE and AO2 + their expansion.
With upatch HD (for AOE) and userpatch 1.5 (for AOE2) it’s possible to play them full HD.
Still an amazing game !
In the exact same boat here after being disgusted by the console industry (was a console player from NES to PS3).

I worked on the original Crashes and CTR as well as the recent remakes of them.

So you worked for Naughty Dogs ?
Amazing these are the real CB. For me, only the first which got released on the PS2 (on CD, not DVD) and mauve Crash Bash are decent non Naughty Dogs Crash games.
With Spyro, it’s the same, only the 3 first ones by Insomniacs are amazing.
The remakes look cool too. Hope that the new CTR will be released on Steam too.

Finished the now defunct Telltale Games The Walking Dead Final Season. Had a few "oh give me a break!" spots where you kept dying and had to retry over and over until you figured out the pattern, and a few characters that seemed overly obnoxious. But overall was nice to say goodbye to Clementine.
Just reinstalled Stellaris. Haven't played for awhile and like EA games they put out a gazillion DLC and expansions where you can wind up spending multiple hundreds of dollars on one game, but I just have the base game and I'm enjoying it as-is.

Will try today to install Age of Empires II : The Conquerors (with UserPatch) on Linux (Ubuntu) this evening.

Not sure if it's available in your region, but the AoE II HD Remake on Steam is a fantastic technical modernization of the classic that includes a couple of new civilizations as well.

Any WoW or other MMORPG players here? I kinda want to jump in with WoW now that WoW Classic is close to release.
Really interested in ESO too. I love the Elder Scrolls universe and it seems a much better game for soloing.
Anyone have experience with both?

I played WoW from Beta through the Cataclysm expansion. I have some friends jumping back into Classic...I'm not so sure I want to. I have a hard time dedicating time to an MMORPG these days.
I tried ESO for a little bit when it was in beta, but it didn't grab me like WoW had once done. Might just be a shift in my personal taste. Was also a long time ago. I have been meaning to try ESO again actually, I have some version of it that I got with Humble Bundle Monthly.
Anyway, I don't feel like I have relevant experience in either to provide an up-to-date viewpoint...but I'm interested in what others have to say.

Only experience I have is friends from Destiny playing ESO when Destiny took downturns (I played siege instead personally)

It's available indeed, but I've the collector edition (DVD, no DRM) which once installed does not require the DVD to play.
Also, with UserPatch 1.5, I can play it HD.
I just successfully installed and played on Linux. It just requires some config and command line, but it works !

Wound up dropping $40 on instant gaming to scoop up almost all of the expansions and DLC for Stellaris (skipped Megacorp, Humanoids pack and Plantoids pack)
Gave me a ton more flavor. I'm bordering a more powerful Determined Exterminator robotic race. Got the hyperlane between us buffed up with a strong starbase plus some of my fleet, should be able to hold them if they try anything
Picked up defensive pacts with two neighbors just in case
There's a group of pirates controlling three systems that occassionaly shake me down for tribute. It's still early game and they start with really strong fleets
Fortunately they are a good distance away, so in a little bit I should be ready to say no to their demands and by the time they arrive be ready to fend them off
I'm leading the other races on technology, but need to expand more to secure additional resources, in order to remain competative
A Fanatical Purifier race is a decent distance from me, but also looms as an eventual threat
The mighty Fallen Empires remain stagnant....for now
I have just unlocked all of the insights to begin researching the L-Gates, although I don't have any within my borders. And were they closed to keep us out....or something in?

The time sink with either game is what I’m worried about. ESO seems friendlier in that regard since it’s not subscription based like WoW.
I know that people had tons of complaints with ESO at launch but recent YT vids have made it seem like a lot of the issues have been taken care of.
I really do like the soloing aspect of ESO though so I might have to go with a Khajiit Nightblade thief soon!
Been playing Classic since launch. Game is like crack. I can’t get enough. Really enjoying it.
I can’t believe how Blizzard had such a fantastic product and let it go down the toilet over the years. Classic is a return to the glory days.
Definitely try it. Phase 2 started yesterday. Things are out of control.

I must be old school. Playing on XB one:
Battlefield5, ghost recon, rainbow size siege. Haven’t gotten back into COD modern warfare.

I dunno, I really like many of the QoL stuff added to wow over the years. Leveling in classic was a bite/chore/grind. I also hated having to collect multiple sets of gear for different specs. I was a fan of the old talent system but I actually didn't mind the revised spec system after playing with it for enough time.
