Story:HyperBlade introduces the 3D battlesport of the future. Players engage in a futuristic street-hockey style game played out on the interior of an elongated ellipsoid arena. Body-checks (weapons are included) go for blood in this game as players can be gruesomely eliminated from the game, including the option to score with an opponent's dismembered head. Power-ups, speed boosts, ramps, and simple team management (for substitutions) are all part of the experience. Some strategy is required for play, but it's mostly pure action.
The game also features multiple skill levels, 12 teams (from a US tournament league), and head-to-head network play (IPX and TCP LAN only).

In the future of chunky low poly sports, you can whack the head off someone on the other team (after doing a sick, pointless jump off a tiny ramp) and then use it to score a goal. Nobody cares. It's close enough to the ball I guess.
HyperBlade controls like a lawn mower trying to plow through a big bag of spoiled ham while falling down the stairs, but man is it good fun. Goofy power-ups, death traps all over the arena - this is combat sports at its not-quite-best.
I used to play this for hours on my parents old CRT. It ran SO SLOWLY on our early pentium but I sat through framerates you could time with a calendar because I loved this game so much. It was a silly game I think we got for free from Egghead (old store). I would love to see this gem revived.
A notoriously hard game to get running these days, Hyperblade is a violent and gory mix of jai alai and ice hockey with excellent stadium effects and a pumping soundtrack.

Alien ResurrectionTwo hundred years after the events of Alien³, Lieutenant Ellen Ripley is cloned by military scientists interested in the Alien Queen she had become a host for. Like the "Company" from the earlier films, the military intends to use the Queen to breed a force of bio-weapons. But then something goes wrong; the Aliens they are studying manage to escape, and swarm throughout the science ship. It's up to four stranded heroes - Ripley, Call, DiStephano and Christie - to wipe out the Aliens, and return the ship safely to Earth.
Gameplay is standard FPS action, with limited ammo and plenty of hazards to detour around or find the switch to deactivate. The player switches between the four main characters at each level change, each with a slightly different set of abilities (Call has a motion tracker, Christie has his twin pistols from the film). Levels are based around keeping the Auriga running, and making their way through the ship to escape.Action Horror Survival
