Slaughter Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 See the documentary here. I've never tested any of the games. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FullAuto Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 They're all decent games. Defcon is basically "Let's play Thermonuclear War!" with silos, subs, fleets, bombers, etc, with the game progressing in stages as you go through various Defcon levels (e.g. at Defcon 4 you can't do much, at Defcon 1 it's time to launch your birds). I quite like it as it is Mutually Assured Destruction in action, you can't actually stop the game advancing to the next Defcon level and the war escalating. The demo is definitely worth a try. Uplink is a sort of hacker sim/adventure game, except it's not as tedious as real hacking. You play a freelance hacker and take jobs stealing stuff and causing havoc over t'Internet. Quite fun. Only DLed the demo for Darwinia, but it's a fairly actiony real-time strategy/God type game. You use various different programs (represented in rather cool Tron-like graphics) to fight a virus.

Gimli Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 From the demos I would say that both Darwinia and Uplink are pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
