I recall playing a mission within a desert location. The talks of Roswell, NM and fighting alien species was fantastic. For it being a game released back in 2007, the combat wasn't half bad. Almost felt like, for me anyway, playing some kind of game in a starship trooper type of universe. The story within the game was great too. I wish they had made more games like this over the years.
Please bring this to the store to complete the collection. The first Area-51 is available here, legally, for free: lucasc.me/post/area-51-2005-windows-10-11-patches-guide

The second game I played on the Xbox 360 after Halo 3 and the first game I rented from the video store for it. Playing it through on PC many years after it was quite jank but entertaining and it stuck in my memory as charming in a very unintentional way that I would love to revisit.

All the games now use save files, including the first few titles that originally necessitated a password for continuation, though upon loading save data, the player is still greeted with the old, fully-functional password entry screen, complete with the correct password to access the saved game.

Ghosts 'n Goblins
Ghosts 'n GoblinsGhosts 'n Goblins is a platform game where the player controls a knight, named Sir Arthur, who must defeat zombies, ogres, demons, cyclops, dragons and other monsters in order to rescue Princess Prin Prin, who has been kidnapped by Satan, king of Demon World. Along the way the player can pick up new weapons, bonuses and extra suits of armor that can help in this task. The game is often considered very difficult by arcade standards and is commonly regarded as one of the most difficult games ever released. The game is considered by Gametrailers.com to be the world's second most difficult game ever made. The player can only be hit twice before losing a life (the first hit takes away Arthur's armor, and the player must continue on in his underwear until completing the level, or finding replacement armor). If the player loses a life, he is returned to the start of the level, or the halfway point if he has managed to get that far. Furthermore, each life can only last a certain length of time (generally around three minutes), the clock being reset at the start of a level. If the clock does run out, the player instantly loses that life. After defeating the final boss, but only with the cross weapon (if the player does not have the cross weapon, they will be prompted that it is needed to defeat the boss and restart at the beginning of level 5 and must repeat round 5 and 6 again regardless if the weapon is obtained immediately or not) for the first time the player is informed that the battle was "a trap devised by Satan". The player must then replay the entire game on a higher difficulty level to reach the genuine final battle.
