Quake II, Nintendo 64
The Nintendo 64 version of id Software‘s Quake II was developed by Raster Productions and released in 1999, by Midway in North America and Activision in PAL regions.
Quake, Nintendo 64
id Software‘s formidable Quake was ported to the Nintendo 64 by Midway, and first published in 1996. And it is an excellent port of the classic First-Person Shooter.
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, PlayStation 3
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance is a fighting-based action game developed by Raven Software and published by Activision in 2006. In it you control a team of four Marvel superheroes, chosen from a pool of 23 playable characters (not all of which are available from the start – you must unlock some of them), and going up against the forces of Doctor Doom.
Prince of Persia, Atari 8-bit
After apparently years of toil, and unforseen circumstances, a homebrew conversion of Jordan Mechner‘s classic Prince of Persia finally arrived on Atari 8-bit systems, in 2021. It requires a 128KB XL/XE; it’s free to download and play, and comes it in a variety of different formats (including cartridge). And – I have to say, right out the gate – that it is a brilliant port.
Alien 3, Game Boy
Now this is an interesting departure from the majority of Alien 3 games of the time… It’s an overhead scrolling adventure, rather than a side-scrolling shooter.
Developed by British firm B.I.T.S. (aka Bits Studios) and published by LJN in North America and Acclaim in Japan in 1993, Alien 3 on the Game Boy sees you playing Ripley, on Fury 161, and the similarity to the film ends there… LOL.
Star Wars: Bounty Hunter, PlayStation 2
Developed by LucasArts and first published in 2002, Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is a third-person action game in which you play as Jango Fett, and it is also a prequel to the Star Wars film: Attack of the Clones.
Quake, Sega Saturn
The Sega Saturn port of Quake was apparently the first official console port of id Software‘s classic 3D shooter. And, while it plays quite well, it looks kinda ugly.
Saturn Quake was developed by Lobotomy Software and published by Sega in 1997.
Arcane Dimensions, PC
This groundbreaking Quake mod was first released in 2015 and it has gradually increased in stature since. It’s an amazing achievement, and still incredible to play now. If you like First-Person Shooters and have never tried Arcane Dimensions before then I urge you to give it a try.
Persona 5, PlayStation 3
Persona 5 was developed by “P-Studio” and was published by Atlus in Japan and North America, Deep Silver in PAL territories, and Sega everywhere else, in 2016. It is a Role-Playing Game set in contemporary Japan, featuring monsters, the occult, and the supernatural. Oh, and turn-based combat (but don’t let that put you off).
