i've not seen systemshock 2 in stores for years 'leftover in stock' and 'still in production' are 2 different things its abandonware, no longer profitable but im not sure on moddb's abandonware policy -- The only worthwhile standalone on modDB. beyond the thunderdome

The Underdogs should be fine to link, seeing as how they abide by laws in the way of removing download links upon request of publishers.

What about 2 recent games called Uplink: Hacker Elite and Darwinia both released by introversion software (www.introversion.co.uk) these are both interesting games but didnt get any ads or anything i find them both enjoyable, download the demos its worth it. Edited by (in order): Bentusi, Bentusi

But really everyone. You have to play "The Dark Eye" at least once in your life before you die. What about Mount&Blade? It was just added to Moddb's game list but i have never heard of it before.

uplink is a great game, you can still buy it in a 4 game pack with some utterly terrible crap in it and darwinia is genious -- The only worthwhile standalone on modDB. beyond the thunderdome

where can uplink be bought in the 4 game pack and how much, because introversion charge around $60 australian for it and $45 for darwinia. Edited by: Bentusi

chunky thats what kills indie game companies >_> they still DO make CD's of uplink and they are still selling it on their site, that.. good sir.. is a mislabeled 'abandonware' and now more of an abandonWAREZ. edit, reviewing the page linked to, it only links to orig. site. cause they know it's still for sale Edited by: ImTheDarkcyde -- The only worthwhile standalone on modDB. beyond the thunderdome

STALKER isn't an underdog. It's actually a very popular game that just hasn't been released yet. I've seen the trailers, and when they ask the developers questions like, "Do you feel your game will live up to the hype?" You don't get that from being an underdog.

It's a game that is impossible to play due to jammed servers. Then, when you want to quit, you have to hit ctrl+alt+del to get the computer to normal again. -- Join the Legions! Sign up for the ModDB Forum Junkies Group Today!
