2-0 out of 5 stars rather disapointing
This collection would be fun if all the games could be played head to head online, but they can't.The pool game is fun but you are much better off buying Sierra's Maximum Pool instead.

3-0 out of 5 stars Cool game but not awesome!
This is a cool fun game. I like the amusement park pinball game the best. It's the easiest and most fun to play. Real fast mouse and button play is needed for this game. I didnt like the fact you couldnt use a game pad with it. The pool and the pinball game included with this game are not the full versions of the game. To get the full versions of these two games you will have to purchase the two separately. The music is cool but not alot of variety. The graphics in this game are awesome! I wish it had bowling in it. Oh well we can always hope for improvements in the next version. ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

This strategy game pits the militaristic forces of the Global Defense Initiative against the Brotherhood of Nod, an equally well-armed religious order. Players may play either side as the factions fight to control an ecologically ravaged Earth. The key to winning is tiberium, a plant that serves as raw material for weapons and factories. Controlling this powerful fuel source allows you to generate funds, raise armies, and fend off destruction.

Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun is a simple combat simulator that allows the player to gather resources, turn them into soldiers, and unleash them against the foe. The game runs in real time, so events can turn against you quickly, but if one is cautious and observant, the battles are not too hard to win.

Though their missions are different, the two sides are essentially interchangeable, with identical military discipline and similar battle units. Though the Brotherhood of Nod has fascist trappings and is obviously the villain, there is no significant difference in playing one side or the other. The game also lacks female battle units, though it features a few women in interstitial sequences.

Despite these weaknesses, Command and Conquer: Tiberian Sun is thoroughly entertaining and will satisfy anyone who enjoys building an army from the ground up and testing it on the battlefield. --Alyx Dellamonica ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars c&c tiberian sun
Addicting, but not worth the time.I say that because this game is a bit far-fetched.

3-0 out of 5 stars Same as the original
Remember Command and Conquer, the real-time strategy that lets you build a base, a lot of units and rush the opposing force?You'd think the developers of the original would come up with some innovative game play for the sequel. While maybe they can, they didn't here. Not only is the game play unchanged, it suffers from a weak story, poor balancing and computer AI and several small problems.

The single player campaign story, what there is of it, is just a jumble of scenarios without much to tie them together. There are characters and things happen to them but but there isn't a story progression to follow. You fight over here, you fight over there, then it's the final battle. In fact I reached the end of the GDI campaign without realizing it. The live video cut-scenes should have helped create a rich back-story but writing this I can't remember any of it.

There are balance issues particularly with NOD units and structures. A NOD 'super laser' structure can destroy almost anything with one shot but the NOD artillery is completely unbalanced. With a long range and a big punch, the artillery is can wipe out any ground force, and is unstoppable even in small numbers as long as a small anti-air backup is nearby.

The computer is an easy opponent. It doesn't rush but sending units at piecemeal, a handful at a time. It doesn't protect it's harvesters either, once you locate them it's easy to cut-off the computer's resources. The computer showed some initiative just once: During a NOD scenario several GDI engineers rushed my base taking several of my structures. I was so surprised it nearly wiped me out but building a good perimeter stopped later rushes. In the scenarios that followed the engineer rush never happened again. I didn't try any higher difficulty levels, maybe the computer plays better there.

Large maps are hard to manage, the game tell you that an offscreen unit is lost but not where the unit is. Some scenarios seem designed to simply frustrate you with a huge map and a timed objective with no direction as to where to accomplish it. In the end the game is all about the mass rush, once you build 50 or medium strength units nothing the computer can't stop you. On the technical side this game ran perfectly on Windows 2000.

If you're looking for more of the original Command and Conquer this game's for you.

5-0 out of 5 stars Tiberian Sun is still the best of the C&C/Red Alert series!
When it comes to single-player (solo) gaming, Tiberian Sun is the best of
the C&C/Red Alert series!Why?Let me count the reasons.

Tiberian Sun missions are the most varied and interesting.It isn't all
about building up a base and destroying the enemy's base.When you play as
a GDI or NOD, you think one side really is superior (I thought GDI was
until I realized NOD had better defensive base capabilities).The units &
vehicles were really ahead of its time when you compare the game to RA or
RA2.And lastly, TS really was harder for me compared to the other series.

When it comes to multi-player (online) gaming, I imagine that TS is the
best to play with too, although I imagine that NOD gets played an
overwhelming amount due to its superior defensive base technologies and
offensive weapons (stealth, artillery, destructive chemical weapons,
lasers, burrowing, etc).The only good thing I can think about GDI is if
someone gets to build too many bombers, then GDI will attrition NOD to
death.

4-0 out of 5 stars One of The Best Games Ever
I never liked strategy games but this one is different. Great graphic with blood and corpses when you bomb or kill your enemies. Gets harder as you play but if you plan out your assault then you'll definately win the mission.
Great music and reminds me of the creatures game music.. same company..

4-0 out of 5 stars This game is excellent!
I bought this game after borrowing RA2 from a friend and I decided to buy TS because I had played it before and it was really good. It has a rather small display which lacks in detail but is perfect to see what is going on. The units have variety, but GDI and NOD are a bit too similar, for instance both sides have the same type of MCV, but on RA2 they are different. It's just aesthetical. But some units are so [incredibly awsome] that they alone can keep you glued to the screen for hours, trying to devise a strategy to take them out. I find that NOD Banshees or GDI Orca bombers in groups of five or six can be used to take out the enemy MCV, then the other buildings. The NOD Artillery are really good defense and attack if you can afford to support them with Mobile Repair Vehicles and some sort of tank (Buggies do well, but die fast). The Component Tower idea is a bit stupid though. GDI Firestorm Defense is good but annoying and the walls are annoying to build (piece by piece, unlike RA2) and annoying to repair. The in-game movies are a bit disgusting, but the soundtrack is really good. Overall, it is a great game and one of Westwood's best productions. ... Read more

Amazon.com Review

Blobs of ectoplasm, angry Rottweilers, and sneaky lawn dwarfs are just afew of the obstacles you'll encounter playing 3-D Ultra Radio ControlRacers. This racing game boasts lush graphics, customization options thataccommodate the clueless as well as the hardcore racer, and plenty of fun-lovingattitude. This is the only CD-ROM we've encountered where we must endure bothchicken attacks and an announcer blaring, "What a pathetic display!" as we limpacross the finish line dead last.

Racers can use the keyboard, a joystick, or the mouse to control theremote-control car they chose. The keyboard option is extremely squirrelly, mousing iseasier, and, well, there's a reason joysticks are called what they are. Playerscan race the computer, go solo around the tracks, race another player, or get ona circuit and race for "money" that they can use to buy upgrades for theirvehicles. For the truly helpless, there's a controlled steering option thatdrives the car around the track automatically as the player supplies theacceleration. Players also have the option of enabling or disabling power-ups onthe tracks--pick these up and your car can inflict bottle rockets, oil slicks,electrical arcs, and more on opponents. There are also a couple of nonracinggames: a soccer game with cars as players, and battle ball, a game in whichplayers use their cars to hit balls into a pit.

This Windows-only game's strongest points are the 16 tracks that range fromsimple to insane, and the way players can manipulate the program to suit andsatisfy a wide range of racing skills. Racing-impaired testers had fun avoidingdemented lawn dwarfs in Backyard, and dodging wayward amphibians that hop out ofFrog Pond. Meanwhile, tracks like Haunted and Aztec challenged the truegearheads. Just watch out for that nasty chicken on Hillbilly Hill. --AnneErickson ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars very fun game for all ages!
3D Ultra RC Racers is a great game!The graphics are excellent with richly rendered "top down" views.There are eight tracks of various difficultly levels from "easy" to "insane".I normally do single races but you can also progress thru a season where you gain money by winning races and can upgrade your RC car.You can choose from four types of vehicles with multiple paint schemes each and can play against a friend or the computer.It ran flawlessly even on my old system (233 mhz) and has different resolutions; 800x600 looks great!This is an awesome game for any age esp. if you have had experience with real RC cars.Check this out for sure!

5-0 out of 5 stars Totaly Awesome !
I have been into Radio Control Cars for several years and this game is about as close as you can get to the real thing. I do recomend a gamepad or a rc wheel type controler. If you do purcahse this game, make sure to visitthe Sierra web site and get the patch. It adds a paint editor that lets youadd your own paint jobs.

4-0 out of 5 stars Lots of fun for two people
I have many car programs.The key for me is that I want to be able to enjoy the game and I want my 3-year old to be able to play it by himself.Using Midtown Madness and Monster Truck Race as my normal games of choice.

As a huge positive, I truely enjoy being able to play with two people atthe same time on the same computer.However it would be nice to have thechoice of playing on the same screen, rather than only using the splitscreen (though I understand the necessity when the two racers are atdifferent parts of the course).The eight tracks are enjoyable anddifferent...can be a lot of fun, though when the dog jumps out to eat myson's car he gets a little scared.

My biggest complaint is the problem'sI have when using my joystick to play, it is so screwy that I usually justuse the keyboard to steer.

Overall I give the game a 4, it is a lot offun, though the serious gamer might get bored with it after a while.Ilove the extra features you can pick up like firecrackers and rockets toshoot at the other cars.

4-0 out of 5 stars Radi Control Racers, Fun for the whole family
When i bought this game it looked pretty good, when I played it I was even more satisfied with it. It is a great game, it can be played one or two player mode. It could use some more tracks. With only eight to choose fromit limits the fun. This game is great ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Aliens VS Predator VS Marines VS Win XP
I must start out by stating that this is a HARD game (from beginning to end).The pure terror that the marine missions induce is matched by no other game that I have played.You will quickly find that is not the ordinary, run of the mill shooter.Other games have been touted as the thinking mans shooter, if that is so, then AVP is the chess master of shooters.As the marine you will often find yourself creeping along at painfully slow speeds only to anticipate whats around the next bend.Once you turn that corner and there's nothing there, you breath a sigh of relief, pause the game, use the bathroom, and continue on your journey.The Alien missions are extremely fast paced due to there wicked speed and ability to climb walls and to cling to ceilings.As the Predator, you'll wish you could stay cloaked the entire mission, just avoid encounters.The gameplay, visuals, and sound are straight from the Aliens & Predator movies, which, depending on whether or not you liked them, this could be a good thing.

There are, however, two downsides to this game.The first being that it is very frightening and difficult to master.

The second being that it has problems running on my Windows XP system.I am running an Athlon XP 3200+, 512mb DDR 400 RAM, a Radeon 9600 XT 256mb video card & Windows XP Professional SP1.I should be able to max out the resolution and still achieve over 100 FPS, but at 640x480 the frame rates are in the low 20's.When I first bought this game I ran it on an AMD K6/3 450mhz overclocked to 475mhz with a TNT2 Ultra 32mb & 384mb PC100 SDRAM.at 800x600 the game ran along nicely at 50fps with Windows 98 Second Edition.Call it bad luck or whatever, but my situation stinks.

4-0 out of 5 stars Classic Terror Game That Leaves You In A State Of Uneasiness
Made from the combination of the Sci-Fi classic movies "Aliens" and "Predator", this game combines a cinematic environment mixed with great suspense, terror, gore, and action. Journey into futuristic environments as one of three accessable characters in hope of accomplishing overall domination over the others and complete your given objectives to win the game. Be the acid spewing alien with grippling hands and super fast agility, the very mortal human colonal equiped with explosive guns and ammo, or the cloaking, stealthful, self healing predator. Each has its advantages and disadvantages over another and each with its different game play and control.

Isn't compatible with XP much and some downsides of the game, as with many, is the A.I. setting and not enough levels. The game is also considered for intermediate to pro first-person shooting pc gamers and will take much practice and patience, not to mention heart and a fast trigger finger to beat.

I would definetly recommend this game for 15 year olds and up even though its M rated. Try to play this game without a guide or cheat codes and use your head instead. Its worth it more when you actually win. Good luck and happy shopping and I hope this guide will help. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Incredible!
Sim City 2000 is a great game for anyone who wants a challenge and of course a ton of FUN!! In this game you are the mayor and you control the fate of your city. You build the roads, power plant(s), and other special buildings, do the zoning, and let the Sims do the rest. However disasters do happen. So be on the alert! Tornadoes, earthquakes and much more can decimate your city! HERE ARE SOME HELPFUL HINTS AND SECRETS FOR YOU:

1) When building roads make the area within them 6x6. Sims like to be three spaces or less away from roads on all sides of them.

2) When zoning put industrial at least three spaces away from residencial. Hey, would you like living nextdoor to a noisy, smelly, smokey factory? Well I sure wouldn't!!

3) If you don't want disasters to happen to your city, simply click on the "Disasters" bar at the top of the screen and select "No Disasters."

4) Finally, if you want to know the ultimate code then hear this: All you have to do is type in the letters: imacheat

4-0 out of 5 stars Decent Game
This is a pretty decent game. It is very hard to play at first, but after a few days, you will get the hang of it. You can personalize your city using the Urban Renewal Kit. You can even paint your buidings, and/or you can place cool buildings in your city whenever you want. The only problem that I have with the game is the lack of funding for your city. You have to issue many bonds, which are very hard to pay off. Nevertheless, this game is fun, and I recommend it to everyone. With patience, you'll be building a lot of cities! Remember: Build a power plant first. You can't have a city without electricity, right? Start your city near a lake or river and build a lot of water pumps. Build them on the shores of your body of water. Connect the pumps with power lines from your power plant. Now build some zones. Connect them with roads, power,and water pipes from your water pumps. Now build a hospital, a school,a college, a police station, a fire department, and a jail. You might also want to build stadiums and/or parks. Remember the pipes, roads, and power lines. Fund everything at least 80% and listen to what people have to say about your city so you don't have problems. Good Luck!

4-0 out of 5 stars Great game but not alot of control!
Sim city 2000 is a great game. It shows you the basics of building a city. You have to keep your spending in control wich is very hard to do. I think it's a great game for kids 6 to 10. But an adult would enjoy this game too. Sim city 3000 is better if you looking to buy it for a teenager or adult. in Sim city 2000 it's seems that ounce you get into one bond you never come out of the hole. I realy recomend sim city 3000 more.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good Product for older systems
This is a great product. It is extremely similar to SimCity 3000 except for several facts.

--It is $5 cheaper.

--It saves your hard drive (20 mbs compared to 200mbs)

--The graphics card requirements are less (less than 2mbs compared to a minimum of 2 megabytes for SC 3000)

--It is FASTER (it runs faster in benchmark tests compared to SC 3000 because SC 3000 is graphic intensive)

--Doesn't require DirectX 6.0 like SC 3000 therefore, it requires less disk space

--It is better than SC 3000 because it does highways better and it is less intensive, also you can switch between applications for when your boss is behind you. It also has scenarios, and you can select NO DISASTERS.

It also has better cheat codes and the SIMCITY URBAN RENEWAL KIT (SCURK) which allows you to build the city to your liking , and then you can run it in SC 2000.

It is also more stable, in SC 2000 you can build longer bridges and power lines, and you can build connections to other cities cheaper. In SC 3000, if you build an onramp by the border, it will crash the program. Overall, it is a better deal for people with slower computers (1998 and earlier), but if you have a powerful computer (1999, 2000, 2001) SC 3000 is a better deal.

Harrison Fuchs

3-0 out of 5 stars A Good But Undetailed Game
This game is a great game for anyone who enjoys simulation games. The point of the game is to build a money-making metropolis. You start with a gigantic plot of land, your goal is to build and make your sims (simulated residents of your city) happy. You can do this by not raising taxes to high and supplying their demands. The game simulates time very fast but you can pause and modulate the speed. Overall, this game was great but the graphics are bad and gameplay is nothing compared to Sim City 3000. ... Read more

Deer Avenger 2 puts you in the role of an angry buck whose girlfriend (a winsome doe) was plowed into the road by a trio of crazed hunters. Track them in the city, the suburbs, and Hicksville, using one of three weapons, to, um, "tranquilize" them. You'll run into plenty of obstacles, though: mailmen with automatic weapons, soccer moms with advanced tactical training, and more.

The running commentary is funny at first but wears after a while--but that's what volume controls are for. You'll find yourself returning time and again to tranquilize humans into the Stone Age, avenging not just your white-tailed love but also every moose, pheasant, and wild turkey cut down in the prime of life. Game controls are simple, and the animation is good but not outstanding. Game play is fun and moderately challenging once you get used to the system humor. The violence may not be appropriate for small children, but teens and teens-at-heart will love Deer Avenger 2.--Rob Lightner ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Awesome parody of those stupid 3D Deer Huntin' games.
This little jewel of satire came out around the time of the Deer Huntin' PC game fad.

I went to Rock Hill High School, a place where every student on the bus is a bigoted hick with an empty 20 ounce pepsi bottle for a spittoon (even some of the girls, LOL). This one sped would play 3D Deer Hunting each morning of homeroom (our teacher was nice enough to let us play on the under-budget computers) One day a friend and I brought Deer Avenger and started playing it, boy did it send those skoal-chewing hicks into a Redneck Rampage™!

They saw what we were playing and started calling us every name they could think of. Mainly 3 letter letter words that start with F and end with G. But we didn't care, it was the funniest thing we'd done all school year aside from the time we screamed Black Power at the stupid skinhead sped's who yelled "White Power" in the halls. My friend and I were both caucasian and that's exactly why it was funny! Those poor rednecks didn't know what to think ^_^

If you loath the Outdoor Life Network and Jeff Foxworthy/Blue Collar Television makes you cringe in unbearable pain, get this game and start takin' out the trash... Trailer trash that is! Hey look, its a rare buck-toothed David Duke! QUICK, SHOOT IT!

Hmmm... done by the writers for Late Night with Conan O' Brian the same folks who did the writing for Father of The Pride. I love that show! ^.^

4-0 out of 5 stars Macglee Ratings
This game is funny but I disagree with some of the other reviewers on the proper target age.I got this game for my 9 year old daughter and she has loved it for a couple of years now.I recommend it for pre teens and teenies even more than adults.No one appreciates a good fart joke like a kid; a fart weapon?Heaven!The sexual allusions and sleaze factor are no grosser than the Simpsons or Married with Children.The revenge theme is also satisfying for teenies.Finally, it is very difficult to actually win this game for me, but my daughter (now 12) has achieved it many times.

For those who hesitate to expose "children" to this I say "Lighten up!"

3-0 out of 5 stars OK?
This game is fun and it is a little funny. But, It hardly has any gameplay theres only three levels and they are hard to beat. I bought this game for 10 bucks. I wouldnt buy it for no more than that. This game is ok for a once in a while game but its not worth no more than 10 bucks.

4-0 out of 5 stars buy this!!! or else
this game I wasn't so excited about at first, but right before I startedit I was already laughing my head off. this is by no doubt the funniestgame known to man. plus the graphics were as good as it gets. I recomendyou buy this game a.s.a.p.

4-0 out of 5 stars Deer Avenger 2, Deer in the City
The game is halirious and even though it can get boring after prolonged playing.You can pick from 3 guns (snoozie, RM16, and the dream weaver).The point of the game is to kill 3 hunters that were in a truck that ranover the bucks girlfreind (you are the buck).Each hunter has a place thathe hangs out in.People (like a bartender in a bar) in this area proctectthe hunter and you need to kill them all (takes 8 shots to kill them)before the hunter appears.The hunter is the hardest and once you kill himyou drag him out to the bucks hideout.After killing the first hunter youhave to kill the other 2.After you kill all 3 hunters you win the game,you can always go back and win the game again.It is hard to kill thehunters and takes practice.You can die very easily because all people youencounter shoot back.the only way to regain health is to shoot saltshakers, but you can only get a max. of40% of your health back.You cansave your game after you kill a hunter (there is room for 6 saved games).

Amazon.com Review

Opposing Force returns the player to the Black Mesa facility, but tells the tale from the perspective of Col. Adrian Shephard, one of the soldiers sent to clean up the scientists and their reality-altering mess. Just as in Half-Life, things quickly go badly for Colonel Shephard and his men. Ambushed by aliens, Adrian must fight his way through the ruins of the facility in an attempt to reach a helicopter extraction point.

What makes Opposing Force shine is the way it expands on the story of Half-Life. Colonel Shephard passes though areas that players of Half-Life are sure to recognize, and he occasionally runs into characters from the original game, including the infuriating Man in Suit. Opposing Force also introduces several new weapons, such as a sniper rifle (with scope), heavy machine gun, and a .357 Magnum with a laser sight. There's even a "weapon" that is actually a common alien creature from the first game; its unique features allow it to be used as a kind of grappling hook.

Several new aliens make an appearance as well, almost all of them deadly. They exhibit the same sophisticated AI (artificial intelligence) as the monsters in Half-Life, relentlessly and intelligently attacking Adrian as he makes his way through the game's impressive levels. Fortunately, Colonel Shephard's rank allows him to take command of any soldiers he encounters. Riflemen and machine gunners can be ordered to follow Adrian and provide covering fire, or assigned to guard a door or room. Engineers can cut through locked or blocked doorways, while Medics can heal the injured. Unlike Half-Life's solitary "me against the world" game play, the addition of competent friendly forces provides a feeling of camaraderie: there's nothing like leading a squad of loyal Marines against an alien horde. --Mike Fehlauer

This is game is much cooler, more fun than Half life. Weapons are good, there are less annoying puzzles, night vision googles are cool, AI is awesome, new and more deadly aliens. Yes the game is shorter than Half Life, but who cares when you are having fun playing it over and over again. You can make 2-3 soldiers work beside your side. Suggest everybody to buy OpFor with BlueShift, you will get high definition pack, which improves graphics and gives new looks to weapons and aliens. A MUST BUY FOR EVERY FPS FAN.

4-0 out of 5 stars just go with steam
This game is a big rip-off now cuz u can jus get it on steam 4 fr33 if u register a yur copy of half-life. u can also get awsome stuff like counter strike, tfc,codename gordon, and other games 4 fr33.
the game itslf is not as good as half-life, but still demanded as much attention as hl.

dont buy it, just get it 4 fr33, dawg.

5-0 out of 5 stars Through the eyes of ...
major Shephard. Experience Half-Life's Lambda Complex incident all over again through the eyes of major Shephard, part of a squad sent in to contain the chaos that has erupted in the Lambda Research Complex.
First, play Half-Life. Actually, this game won't even run without it so you don't have much of a choice.

4-0 out of 5 stars Nothing can match Half-Life, but this is a worthy try.
Although significantly shorter, with worse weapon-pacing, a lot less story and a lot of inconsistancy, Opposing Force manages to still satisfy through great gameplay and innovative new aliens.

No game will ever come close to the unmitigated brilliance that was Sierra's 1998 release Half-Life, so expecting a mission pack to come even close may have hurt public opinion for this game.Not helping matters is the fact that for about the same cost you get a far shorter game.Additionally, the weapons are all apprehended too quickly and a lot of the plot (which dissapears all too quickly) meshes with the original game.

In Op4 you are Adrian Shephard, a corporal sent in to eliminate all traces of the debacle at Black Mesa.However, shortly before reaching the LZ your helicopter is shot down by weird creatures and you are separated from your squadmates.The military has realized it's in over its head and pulls back, but you are left behind, trying to stay alive with other remnant forces.
Despite all the negative reasons i have listed above and the anti-climatic, seemingly rushed ending, this is still a very fun game.It keeps some weapons and adds innovative new ones.It keeps almost all the old aliens and adds brilliant new ones, and action sequences that are difficult and entertaining.

I would reccomend that anyone new to the Half-Life family purchase and enjoy the original first, but this is still a worthy game and highly reccomended to any Half-Life devotee.6.5/10

5-0 out of 5 stars Great, but not greatest.
This game is truly the greatest add-on for half-life, other than CS. I wasn't too thrilled with being able to play "bob"(blue-shift), but I couldn't wait to play this. The army always bugged the s*** out of me, and I wanted to be them. But it wasn't exactly what I expected. They could have made this 3000 times better if they knew that the problem was going on, not being thrusted into the action like everyone else. I wanted to be able to neutralize the threat, and the facilitators. Not have them be our crutch. and, you dont get good ammo/weapons in the beginning. It's annoying! But I enjoyed this. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars Buy it and pass on a laugh, fun!
This is a simple game in learning to navigate. You're a ticked-off deer going out to hunt a plague of hunters invading your woods. You have several devices for locating these killers (comical calls, brocolli activated farts, and a sack full of lures) You can hop from one of four seasons. As you defeat a prey, you gain their weapon. The better tactics you use, the more likely you are to encounter a higher-level of hunter. But as much as you can hunt them, they are there to shoot you. And they are varied from Boozer--the bear-hat lush, to Tad---the Wall Street GPS-equipped aristocrat,--to Zeke, an A-1 sportsman. After you kill one or die, you are sent back to a cabin where you can select a new season and pick a new weapon. Good luck.

4-0 out of 5 stars Funny
This is a great game to play if you are a hunter and ever thought that your the hunted because you never see dear but they always see you, you will laugh your butt off at this game.

3-0 out of 5 stars Starts off well
This game has an exciting beginning and is wicked funny. One drawback is that I find it impossible to kill the last hunter. Overall, the game is pretty easy except for the last two hunters and I recommend getting this game only if you play games about 30 minutes a day.

4-0 out of 5 stars Not for the serious gamer, but lots of fun
Well, until Simon & Schuster comes out with a 5th "Avenger" game...I've got 'em all.I haven't played it out yet, but with what I have played this is what I see.

The environment in "Deer 3D" is a excellent evolution from the first person side-scrolling in "Deer and Deer 2".Not knowing how much previous experience that S&S has with "true" 3D environments ("Bass" is really 2D with a third person perspective) this feels like a good start with somewhat usable terrain features.With a few small beefs.Either I haven't figured it out yet, or you can't climb the trees.An obvious hunters perch.Also do the trees factor into how hard it is for the hunter to hit you?If not they should, cover and concealment after all.And one observation.Is it just me, or are there no negative elevation values on the ground?There seems to be a definite level ground or zero point and it stays at zero or goes up from there, with the very obvious hills.But nothing going down.

The weapon collection is interesting, with one suggestion.Unless I haven't pulled it off yet, there's no "one shot kills."Any of the weapons have the very real potential to do it "quick n clean" but not in the game.This may be an obvious choice by S&S to increase the difficulty, or keep it a lighthearted fun game.But the possibility of it, controlled or random, would be nice.

As with "Bass" (see my review) this is not for the serious player of RPGs or RTSGs, looking to tax their new computer or graphics card.But for those of us loyalists that were hooked by the first "Avenger" it's GREAT.The only reasons that I'm not giving it five stars I've mentioned above.With the way they're advancing, if S&S takes this concept any further.There is a possibility that the next one can compete directly with the current flock of "serious" 1st person 3D shooters.

3-0 out of 5 stars A good gag gift...
I received this as a gag gift since I'm not a big fan of the hunting games.In Deer Avenger, you play the first person in the form of a deer, going after stereotypical hunters.Along the way, though, you have to make sure you don't shoot any friends like the hiker or environmentalist.

There are several weapons to be used as you progress in the game, both attacking ones and attracting ones (pizza, beer, etc.)There are also 'attractive' sounds used to lure the unsuspecting hunter.

I found the graphics in this game to be a bit behind the technology although the sound is appropriate for the scenario.

Playing the game only stays interesting for the first few hunts as a typical gamer will find that this game is too easy and offeres very few twists and turns.

Installation was quick and without glitches.

So buy it as a fun gift, but don't think that it will keep the recipient busy for any lenght of time. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Pure excellence.
Command and Conquer as a franchise (with the disappointing exception of Generals) is quite simply THE greatest strategy game of all time. Period. There is really nothing bad that can be said about the series. If you don't own these games, buy them.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Best !
These are the best games invented, filled with awesome, adventurous missions and multiplay. These games allow you to command your own army. As many men, tanks, trucks, artillery, apc's as you need, even subs and water transports !

5-0 out of 5 stars This is great!!
I started playing the C&C games way back, when they came out.
I saw this at a store a few weeks ago and I was like "cool, all 4 of them in one package," so I bought it. I was completely new to Tiberian Sun and RA2 and they totally blew me away. The AI is much better and so are the graphics. However, I must warn you if you are running XP then you won't be able to play the original C&C or the Win 95' version of RA so you will have to install it on DOS. Oh, yeah, I got this 20 dollars cheaper at gamestop so this might not be the place to buy it.

5-0 out of 5 stars Great
The absolute best RTS ever made.The missions for both GDI and NOD are chanlliging in the extreme if you have never play this I recommend you pick it up at the bargain rack.It may be old but for its time it was very advanced.This game and warcraft started a revolution in the computer game industry ...

Amazon.com Review

Fans who mastered the original StarCraft's three races and survived its well-crafted story were quickly clamoring for more. A worthy sequel, Brood War delivers further plot twists and bigger battles.

In keeping with StarCraft's groundbreaking design, this expansion pack--which requires the original game--presents you with three sides of a galactic conflict. Scheming Humans, insidious Zerg, and proud Protoss collide again, with stunning new cinematics setting the stage. Old friends and foes and ominous new arrivals give the story a breakneck pace, while a handful of additions to each race's arsenal makes for tense battles.

Some missions require a bit of finesse, breaking the resource-gathering routine while making good use of the new units. Humans now have Valkyrie missile frigates, as well as Medics that automatically try to heal your grunts. New for the Zerg air force is the acid-spewing Devourer; the new Lurker unit provides heavy-duty (under) ground support. Along with the Corsair fighter, the Protoss re-enter the fray with Dark Templar, which can merge to form the devastating Dark Archon. Unfortunately, units old and new still suffer from some weak pathfinding.

Brood War also features stellar new environments and ambient art, as well as more than 100 additional multiplayer maps. Real-time strategy games don't get any more epic or any more satisfying. --Jack Gardiner

Pros:

  • New units open up more strategic possibilities
  • More of StarCraft's great storytelling
  • Missions are challenging and varied
Cons:
  • Unit pathfinding is still a little clumsy and requires careful micromanagement

5-0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny
Brood war is, by far, the best expansion to a strategy game ever made. Unlike those expansions that just add a race like every other, or that add a campaign, Brood War adds both consuming campaigns, and units you'll wonder "how did I do without these guys?!"

Graphics: 5/5 It looks like an upgrade, but it's not!
Controls: 4/5 No upgrade here
Gameplay: 5/5 Units make all the difference
Story: 4/5 Makes little sense, but enough
Tech: 6/5 Amazing Expansions

Overall: 5/5 Buy this, it's worth it

5-0 out of 5 stars Great game
This is one of the best games ever.With a map editor you can create your own maps.The editor features trigger functions so you can make the ultimate game.Online playing is superior.I play it all the time and my favorite game is WWII Death in Europe.People create maps and share them all over the internet.The controls are easy to master with keys and the mouse.The game is complex and if u read the strategy book that comes with the expansion, you can master the game.I recomend this game to the best gamers out there.It has a very reasonable price.With the added units like corsairs, and devourers.The game is flawless.Buy it today!

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the Best PC Strategy Game Ever Created
I have played this game ever since it came out and am a veteran player.Each of the three paragraphs will explain different parts of the game so if you are about to just scroll down past this review because it's long, just read the paragraph that most interests you by reading the first few sentences of any of the shown paragraphs because those sentences describe that paragraph.This first paragraph will explain the races and the differences.This game has 3 unique races that are very different.Zerg, Protoss and Terran all have very different units, buildings, statistics, strategies and more.Zerg have weak units, but they are very cheap too build and you can create them very early in the game because you can build units very fast compared to the other races.So Zerg is the best race to rush other players with.Protoss is a very strong and expensive race.They are slower to build than any of the races but they are very good if you are going to play a long game with someone.Terran, which are the humans if you don't know, are in the middle.They are in middle of the stats when you look at the cost difference, strength and how fast they take to build.All the races are good to be, since the game is one of the best of it's kind.

Now this second paragraph is about game play.Starcraft with its expansion pack is a one of a kind.The game loads fast, the controls are straight forward and are simple to use, the graphics are great, with it's dark textures and detailed landscape it has better graphics than all other strategy games for it's time.Even some of the newer games from Westwood Studios do not come near to the graphics of this game.This game has great missions, and the first few for each race also act as a tutorial for new players.Also in between every few mission they have a cinematic movie, which you can watch or skip if you want.The mission-briefing screen depends on which race you are, for the setting is different and the characters (speaking animated portraits) that tell you your mission are different.This game has pretty good music and when you click on a unit they always reply back with some sort of response.

Now this third and last paragraph will talk about the best part of the game, multiplayer mode.Battle.Net, which is Blizzards official online multiplayer battle network where you can play against hundreds of thousands of other players who are online, is a great system.You can play MANY different types of maps with up to eight people in one game.There are different types of maps, some are 'User Map Settings, Melee, Team melee, Capture the Flag, etc.'There are more types but I will just continue.When you install the game it also comes with a map editor.This map editor allows you to customize maps, and even create your own maps.You can change the name and stats of units, change the mission briefings, create triggers and timers and scoreboards and teams and change the terrain plus more.You create an almost actual RPG like game or any other type of game if you put hard work into it.I usually play user map setting maps that are the maps created by other players because they are more fun than the regular melee.This game is the only current strategy game to enable you to completely change and upload your own maps to the server for others to play.I myself have created a map called "God vs. Satan" which is a VERY popular map right now and others have made probably over 10 other upgrades to the map which is probably more than any other map.I play online all the time under the nickname punwod and you can message me or anyone on Battle.Net by typing "/w NICKNAME".I hope you enjoy this game and this review!=)

This is a great expansion set! Some expansion sets, like the warcraftbeyond the dark portal just added some new maps, but the gives newmissions, maps, and best of all, six new units.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hoyle Board Games and Xp
I am a proud new owner of a Pen 4 that came with the new Xp Home Edition, and I am sad to say that my favorite Game in the whole world only partially worked for 10 days from purchase. Though my Xp has a compatability wizard for Windows 95, 98, Me, Nt, 2000, I can not keep the color bit from dropping to 8 from 32 bits. There is no support for Xp in reality, though much lip service is given to it by the Co. I purchased it from and Microsoft. It is a real kicker that Microsoft actually wrote the Hoyle Games. Though in the read me file Hoyle promises it is Xp compatable. However, what few days I could play Hoyle Games 5, I feel in Love with it. I love Harley the beautiful and friendly Bear, Rosewell the Alien that retired from area 51, Maurice that was abducted by aliens 150 years ago, that has returned to play games with his Beaver puppet, just to name a few. Their sympathy when your game doesn't go well coupled with friendly competition is a wonderful respite from the challeges that I as a handicapped person in the Alaskian Bush with long nights (6 months long) and long winters (6 months) long really fight over and find whelming sometimes. Since, our mail services and Delivery services such as Fed X, UPS, and the US Postal Services offer such challenges to getting anything from the Lower 48, I will be with out my favorite Gaming companions for quite a while, and then I don't know if it will run even then. However, those of you that can run it, please do it is funny, charming, and engaging with beautiful graphic, and quality unsurpassed in this era of gaming, these games are not stressful, harsh, coarse and is non-violent, and so user friendly, a five year old could play them. So, go play, and enjoy as I have Hoyle Games, they'll keep you coming back.

5-0 out of 5 stars This is a super collection of games!
My first purchase of a Sierra Board Game collection was the previous version of Hoyle Board Games. Backgammon was all I was interested in and it was fine except for the erroneous layout of the pieces on the board when you start. I sent it back writing a letter to Sierra explaining why I didn't like it. I bought this new Hoyle Board Games again, mainly for the Backgammon. I was pleased to see the correct piece layout and was more open to the other games. WOW! I never knew about Yacht, but once I played it I was HOOKED. Discovering that Yahtzee came from Yacht, I ran out and bought Yahtzee and Deluxe Edition Yahtzee and became HOOKED to Yahtzee!!! The Pachisi is great, I learned to play great games I never played before (Dominoes, Master Mind, Mancala and Battling Ships). I liked that they told you the history of the games and the more well-known names of some of them. I even like Snakes and Ladders. I like the angle of the Backgammon board, but would have liked an alternate topside view like they have for Chess. I hope they incorporate that in their next Hoyle Board Games and add Chinese Chess. Yacht's rules from Hoyle state that a 4-straight scores 30 and in this program it scores only 25; they also need to fix this, unless it is a variation of it. This is a splendid program, and if you are considering it, please treat yourself to it; if you don't know the rules to most of these games, you will after reading the easy-to-understand rules and will get hooked like me.

5-0 out of 5 stars Hoyle Board Games has turned the family into addicts!
Hoyle Board games 2001 is a fabulous collection of thoroughly enjoyable and addicting family board games.These great games include beautiful graphic versions of Backgammon, Mancala, Chinese Checkers, Chess, Dominoes, Pachisi, Mah Jong Tiles and the addicting Mah Jong Gravity.Also, there are great versions of Battle Ships, Master Mind, Connect Four, Yahtzee and Chutes and Ladders--all disquised by easily identified title variations.A fun game called Placer Racer is a family favorite.It isn't really a board game - more of an arcade game--shooting colored balls trying to make matches of three while you race against a steadily decreasing game area.This collection of board games is great and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who wants fun, wholesome, clean fun for the family. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A new kind of game show for a new age
_You Don't Know Jack_ has risen from a small diversion destined for the discount bin to a cultural phenomenon which rivals Lara Croft.This collection will introduce you to the basics of the series, and give you awealth of questions that will keep you playing for hours.

What makes_Jack_ such a fun experience is not merely that it provides a moderatedgame show environment akin to what one can find on televised game showslike _Jeopardy!_.Rather, it is that it takes the standard TV game showsand turns them on their ears.This is a game show that makes fun of itsown genre--and the American culture which spawned it.In the process, itmanages to be a truly novel offering.Instead of having a standardquestion-and-answer format, the _Jack_ series thrives on throwing you curveballs.Just when you get confident with answering multiple choicequestions, _Jack_ has you actually type the answer (and spelling counts). Or you get a JackAttack (tm) question or a Threesome question, or any oneof the other question styles.

In short, _Jack_ wins through because itis the first game show to be originally designed for and to take advantageof the multimedia potential of home computers. In an age of merchandisingtie-ins from TV and movies, it's refreshing to see publishers attemptsomething unique to the medium--and succeed so fabulously well doing so. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars STAR TREK: STARFLEET COMMAND 3
Star Trek Starfleet Command 3.Could there ever be a better game?After you play this game, you will answer that question the smae way I did.No.In SFC3, you can play as Federation, Klingon, Romulan, and Borg.From the sleek Soverign class vessel (U.S.S. Enterprise 1701-E) to the massive Borg Cube.Fire a variety of weapons, including Quantum Torpedoes, Phasers, Disruptors, and Gavemetiric Torpedoes.Beam you troops over on hit-and-run raids to disable enemy systems, or to attempt the impossible: take over the entire vessel.
Create fleets of up to five vessels, and gang up on small vessels.Invade enemy territory in missions ranging from Planetary Scan, Assulting defensless stardocks, or taking a suicidal run on an enemy starbase.
Launch Probes, cloak, use an anti-cloaking scan, launch specialized shuttles, an perform eratic manuvers.Manage your sheilds to prevent enemy boarding parties from completeing their mission.Name your ship, and create ships from the shows like the U.S.S. Defiant, and visit noted locations such as Sector 00,01 (Earth), Romulus, Remus, The Borg Homeworld, and the legendary home of th klingons, Q'ronos.
Engage in 4 epic campagins, icluding for all major star empires, The United Federation of Planets, The Kligon DefenseFleet,The Romulan Star Empire, and the Borg Collective.Or, you can just ignore polotics, and go on to conquer the galaxy.
Anyway, you can count on SFC3 being the best STAR TREK game ever.It is not worth the $90.00 it's being sold for, though, so buy it at a computer game store.Good Luck Conquering the galaxy.You can e-mail me if you have any questions about the game at comderbashir@yahoo.comJolan Tru

2-0 out of 5 stars Star Trek Bridge Commander.
I've been playing Star Trek Bridge Commander for a while now after I purchased the game just a few years ago. The computer graphics are great if you like to take the Captain's Chair. This game requires some stragety and it's often difficult to play. I have to play this game a number of times before I can get through the next level. But if you are a extremely better gamer and love Star Trek this game is for you. If not don't buy this game if you are not satisified.

4-0 out of 5 stars A great 4-star game
The reason I rated Viper racing 4 stars instead of 5 is because (You'll see if you're the plane) you can drive of the edge of the
earth. Realistic huh? NOT! I also found out that you can do flips. Other than that, Viper racing is a pretty good game. The graphics and sound are REALLY GOOD. Track detail is average.
This is a good game for intermiediate and advanced users.

P.S. In the garage, if you turn (in chassis) Bump to 0-0, rebound to 0-0, springs to 100-100, Anti-lock braking to 47-47 and (in align) height to 20.0-20.0...FEEL THE EFFECT!

I for one have really enjoyed VR for about 4 years now, the graphics were great back when the game came out and now there even better with all the great car and track addons. we have brought the game a long ways in the past years. the sound of the game was and still is the best i have heard for a pc game no music.. dont need it anyway :) i'd rather listen to the hp of an engine and tires burning rubber around the coners. game play, try racing games like gt3 for ps2 online.. not gona happen. hook up with some friends and get in a 8 player multiplayer game going and hang on to your hats! this game its way worth 10 bucks at any retail store that you can find it at. and now with high res textures it may even get to the point of beating the graphics of gt3.. hmmm =)

5-0 out of 5 stars Great game
This game is great. It takes racing reality to a new level, for such an old game. I still think that nfs's new releases only equal viper racing, and the capability to create your own cars for the game gives it a whole new perspective. The paintshop and custom made skins on the web are an added bonus. If there's one racing game to go for, its viper racing.
-edit- Be sure to look for my addon Mach 1 Mustang, with realistic wheelbase dimensions, Mustang sounds, drag tires, and custom rims!

2-0 out of 5 stars Good for its day, but not anymore
I'm sure this racing sim had a pretty good audience back when it was introduced, but the years have not been as kind to it as it has to other racing sims, such as NASCAR Legends which still has a good audience."Viper Racing" has nothing but fictitious tracks that look more or less like futuristic arenas from an arcade game, which wouldn't be so bad if there were more tracks to choose from.On the upside, you get to customize your car.On the downside, all of the cars are the same unless you adjust the suspension and such.You're better off with one of the "Need For Speed" games or a copy of "NASCAR Legends".If Sierra Sports had used the real GT racing season as a model for this racing sim, it would've been more enjoyable.

5-0 out of 5 stars The most realistic race-simulation ever.
Who cares about Gran Turismo? Ok, it has a lot of cars, but you can drive to the wall at 300km/h and bounce off smiling. Viper racing is totally different. It is very smooth to drive and it also takes damage when you hit something. Dodge Viper is also the most beautiful car in the world.

Viper racing is an old game already but still worth the ~15$ it costs right now. I?ve had it for years and I still play it. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Sheer brilliance
I can see how its fun. However,it is just like the game Dark Age of Camelot.Here there are three Realms which you can join - Albion, which is similair to England and is based on the Arthurian Lgends, Hibernia - which is based on celtic legend and Midgard - which is based on the Norse Mythology. Here, you can have 8 characters on each server, and play any number of the current 18 races: Trolls Dwarves Kobolds Norseman Valykn Frostalf Briton Highlander Avalonian Saracen Iconnu Half Ogre Elf Lurikeen Firbolg Celt Sylvan Shar. Each realm has individual classes,including ArmsmanCabalistCleric FriarInfiltratorMercenary MinstrelPaladinScoutSorcerorTheurgistWizardReaverNecromancerVikingWarriorSkald beserkerthaneSavageBonedancerRunemasterSpiritmasterShamanHealerHunterShadowbladeBardBlademasterChampionDruidEldritchEnchanterHeroMentalistNightshadeRangerWardenAnimistValewalker. Then, join with the thousands of players in your realm and go to fight in epic battles and huge sieges.

5-0 out of 5 stars Fun and Addictive!
This game is definatly a keeper. After the first few days of playing you are hooked. Even though you have to pay a monthly fee, you'll find that it is well worth it.

Choose between 3 exciting realms, Midgard, Albion and Hibernia. Then choose between your favorite type of class, whether that is rouge, caster, fighter, or healer. In the game, you will find that leveling is a must, and with each new level you earn points to advance your self. The whole idea of leveling and finding your way around is difficult at first but becomes easier later on. Certain things come with certain levels such as:
Level 5: Choose your main class, instead of you base class, and specialize in new and more exciting abilities.
Level 10: Earn the right to a last name.
Level 15: The first level you can enter Battle Grounds, also known by BG's. There are 4, BG0, BG1, BG2, and BG3. 15-19 BG0. These are RvR area's (Realm vs. Realm) where you can tear at the other realms and battle for center keep. Here you are fighting useing your skills agaisnt real people, not just creaters in the game.
Level 20: Guild embelem. BG1 20-24 (I've found not very active)
Level 25: BG2 Also not a very active Battle Ground.
Level 30: Ahhh yes, one of the most enjoyable levels (I thought) you can go into BG3 which is a very exciting, jam-packed Battle Ground. This level also enables exciting new areas to go in!
35+: You can go into the frontier battleing Levels from 35-50, enjoy new and better groups, find newer and exciting guilds, get better items, and help lower levels. Gets very fun from here on...

It's not just the leveling and gameplay of the game, you can build strong social relationships, make friends with other people, I even have relatives who I play with in the game all the time. Find new guilds, the real people playing in the game make it all the funner. Having some one to talk to as you play is always fun.

Enjoy! ... Read more

Amazon.com Product Description

This is what happens when animals fight back. Deer Avenger: Open Season is a collection of all three Deer Avenger parody games in one package. Join Bambo, one angry buck, bent on revenge against the yuppies and rednecks that hunt him. Pick up your M-16 and flush them out, because it's you or them.

The original Deer Avenger lets you turn the tables on the hunters. Use powerful deer farts and mating calls, and then blast them with deer pellets, an M-16, or a bazooka. In Deer Avenger 2: Deer in the City, you'll head into lovely Armpit Estates and tranquilize everyone in the entire neighborhood, even the vulgar housewife, as you track down the suburban soldier of misfortune that ran over your gal. Show up at the Swamp Ass Grill and unleash your fury on its boozy, bleary-eyed humanity. Check out the '70s disco freak as you hunt down the good ol' boy who laughed at your anguish when he permanently tattooed your babe on the front fender of his SUV. Don't worry if you're a bad shot. You can also fart at your victims and knock them out cold.

Deer Avenger 3D is the first 3-D version of the parody series in which the hunted becomes the hunter. Players again assume the role of Bambo, whose romantic desires must be put on hold until all the forest animals are safe from hunters. There are four locations in which to hunt, and your prey has different levels of skills and abilities. Bambo's arsenal includes shotguns, rifles, automatic weapons, and atomic-powered particle farts. You will have access to lures such as beef jerky and fart-inducing snacks, plus nature lovers and other bystanders will help you clear the forest of hunters. ... Read more
