Not sure if anyone here use to play this but forsaken is still alive and well.
I used to play it on wireplay on dialup years ago use to run up silly phone bills

the game has been updated a lot and works well even for me in win 7.
more info at http://fly.thruhere.net/
have a look at the video of it if you never played it.
the full game is on the download page.

I remember playing this yeeeeears ago!

had no idea what the point or objective of the game was at the time (as I was just a kid) but it was still awesome

i remember buying this and playing it for about 10 mins.........it was one of those games i always installed when i got new hardware and thinking i'll complete it this time but i never really played any more than the demo.

what a waste of 35 quid for me

Remember it well... it was kinda cool and funky for about 15 minutes then I got bored.

Was good game.. had it on the N64 and enjoyed it.. but the multiplayer got very confusing being all upside down and inside out

Been helping convert it to d3d9 lately

Still havent actually played a single full level of it yet though

Its great people put so much effort in updating these games, i have just been playing the updated versions of Descent 1 and 2. I will have to give this a try.

Might check this out again if it's got some updated, I revisted it a couple of years ago but there was some bug with the video modes where it was stuck in low res or 16bit colour or something.

At the time of it's release (~May 1998), it was the best looking game in the world IMO (although, like many glide era titles, a bit too 'bling' for some I expect).

i quickly played it on win 7, and i soon felt sick and got fed up with it. :rolleyes:

kola · 24 Sep 2009 at 19:33

paid 50 odd quid for this on the n64 lol

Kainz · 24 Sep 2009 at 19:43

Still got the game, boxed and all. Great memories of my mate yelling expletives as he opened a door only to find the mother of all missles coming at him

yeah not a game if you suffer from motion sickness

dreigns · 24 Sep 2009 at 20:10

still got the old disc here and the full box and everything that came with it ;-)

blix · 24 Sep 2009 at 20:24

That looks pretty intense. I feel sick just watching the videos.

DreXeL · 24 Sep 2009 at 20:29

I loved this game, I bought it in a package with a Spaceorb 360 controller. In fact I still have the controller, it was awesome when you got used to it, I used it for all my FPS gaming for a while, played through the whole of Half-Life using it.

I remember being blown away by this game when I plugged in my new TNT2.

lokiss · 24 Sep 2009 at 22:14

Ditto.

The first game i played on my v2, blown away.

Thanks for the link, checking it asap.

Forsaken Remastered! Overload might be the current flavour of the month, but Forsaken Is an all out classic.

Used to play Forsaken on wireplay back in the day, was epic fun multi, Many couldn't cope with the 6Dof side and put a lot off it .

Overload is good too but not really comparible as overload is more of a decent 2 as it's some of the original devs that's done it
