In which we start off auspiciously by being oblivious...
So this is going to be a fun thing I'm going to do, since a lot of these older combat flight sim missions are randomly generated (not cool and historic like Chuck Yeager but not everyone can be Chuck Yeager), I'm going to use a game rotation for these various fighter jet sims. It's gonna be all kinds of fun!

Reuploaded to correct an out-of-sync commentary thing.
Command & Conquer is the groundbreaking real-time strategy game from Westwood Studios that set the bar for all RTS games to follow. With its sleek interface, animated units, sincere if cheesy cutscenes, and near-future setting, Westwood Studios produced the game that would define the industry for years to come. It introduced the world to tiberium, point click and die and, of course, Kane. This is where it all begins.

"This is like racing a Yugo with a Corvette."
It's not fair, they've got jets and stuff and I don't, what the heck Germany? Stop being so technologically advanced. Anyway, we spend some time doing cool aerial maneuvers and such and dogfighting. We have to protect our bombers, and these jet fighters show up, that's not nice! We'll see how lucky number 13 is.

"Stealing all the oil derricks? Man... who do you think you are, Saddam Hussein?"
I wound up not building any desolators after all, whatever. But the allies somehow steal all my technology those big jerks to the point I stop caring. And I smash them anyway.

All right, listen up comrades. This is a mod I've been working on for a few weeks that takes everything I love about Red Alert 2 and makes it better, more awesome, and more fun. I call it Red Alert 2 Remix, because it's basically just taking what Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge already has and adjusting it and re-tooling it into so much more coolness. I hope you enjoy!

In which SCREW THE BOSS BATTLE
I don't know why it's taken me so long to think to do this. But here we go! Star Trek 25th Anniversary is the absolutely fantastic VGA point-and-click adventure game from Interplay. It is one of the finest early-90s VGA adventure games in the vein of King's Quest VI, Sam and Max, Secret of Monkey Island, Inherit the Earth, and so on. Featuring the voice acting of all the original series cast, as well as some sharp graphics and top-notch sound effects and music work, Star Trek 25th Anniversary Edition (and its sequel, Star Trek Judgment Rites) are two of the finest, if not the best, Star Trek video games ever released.
I've already done a straight playthrough sans commentary for that pure 'episode of Star Trek' feel, so this will be a chance to really dive deep and show everything off as well as my comments on things. Enjoy!

"We're not Clan Grammar Bear, after all."
Oh yes I have been looking at this one with fear and intimidation for a long time. The famous, or infamous, Ghost Bear's Legacy expansion pack/new campaign was released by Acti-Vision in 1995. It required a copy of the original MechWarrior 2 CD, however it introduced an entirely new campaign, all new mechs, and new weapons that went beyond what was seen in MechWarrior 2. Most importantly, Ghost Bear's Legacy adds an even greater depth and sense of immersion into what it would be like to actually be a Clan MechWarrior.
The story follows the (fictitious and non-canon, uh, extra fictitious I suppose?) journey of you as first a common MechWarrior, then being chosen in the batchall of your commander for the Trial to seek out and restore the stolen Clan Genetic Legacy of Jorgensson and Tseng. Along the way we will pitch head-long into so much Clan Lore and backstory, this is going to be so much fun.
As a game, however, Ghost Bear's Legacy was somewhat overlooked due to the sheer difficulty spike of some of its missions, a few which border on impossible. In the spirit of bringing the best possible experience I can, I will attempt to play through these missions 'as intended' at first. But I am not afraid to admit that I may have to use cheat codes or other dezgra tactics in order to advance the plot. GBL is not for sissy stravag freebirths.
This will be fun, quiaff?
