Hidden Gem or Hidden Evil?
Releasing shortly after the 9th Star Trek film, Hidden Evil sees the player return to the Ba'ku planet to face a new threat.
But with the game appearing on so many 'worst of lists' is actually that bad or is it a misunderstood hidden gem?

Theme Hospital Has Been Given a Fresh Coat of Paint

The late 90's saw a flurry of management simulation games for PC & console release. With many of them being developed by Bullfrog Productions. One of the more interesting titles & arguably the one which has stood the test of time the most is 1997's Theme Hospital. And thanks to an amazing community mod called CorsixTH, it can be played with a much more modern presentation while maintaining ever...

The release of Max Payne in 2001 spawned several games which made use of the popular 'Bullet time' mechanic. But one game took a little more than bullet time as an inspiration, that game is El Matador. Is it a worthy follow up to Max Payne or a cheap cash in?

    @lancebaylis3169 19 часов назад

    I remember enjoying it for what it was, but that it never really felt like a 'full game'. I seem to recall Activision saying at the time that Hidden Evil was meant to be part of a sub genre of Star Trek titles that might RRP for a lower price but be comparatively stripped back in terms of content. Cheaper to buy and faster to market. And then Hidden Evil ended up being the only one, lol

    Hey, I asked for this one a while back, nice to see it again after so long. Seems like I really don't remember it that much. I remember that bit with the steam bridge that I could never get past as a kid, but nice to see the graphics and design is still pretty nice, at least the people working on that were awake at the wheel.

    I remember liking enough the game back then when I was a kid but not as much as the other even the likes of Away Team. I installed it back on my Steam Deck, would be curious to try the controls here. Regarding the story and the romulans, I wonder if this game doesn't have them because of the first draft of the movie that included the Romulans.

  • @no_no_just_no
    @no_no_just_no День назад

    I've noticed a sort of trend with Star Trek adventure games- they all started to feature mazed.... Generations had a maze for every level, Harbingers seconds half was a maze, honor guard was 'find the keycard in the maze' and this game had the Romulan station and the weird engine deck maze.

    If a game is really unfun to play it might as well be short. Ironically that might lead to more people trying it out since they know the agony can only last so long. $15 is a bit steep for that experience though, there are more enjoyable free flash games that last longer.

    Hi, one question, how do you set the controls to show the XBOX buttons icons, and where did you get the widescreen patch? I am using the GoG version and it does not have a good gamepad support (it is awful), it does not have support for triggers or d-pad and cannot bind the same button for more than one action (like B for action and reload, it does not let you), how do you bypass this problem? Or is your the steam version and works better?

    • @azordash_games
      @azordash_games 2 дня назад

      That's strange... I didn't make any changes for control. This is the GOG version. The widescreen patch is here: community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/1388-indiana-jones-and-the-emperors-tomb-wsgf-dr-mods/ Maybe just check you have selected controller as the input.

    Gonna point out 'two point hospital', one of the of the more recent copycats of this game is made by some of the same developers from Bullfrog and Mucky foot. They've also brought back the dream of making an integrated sim management world, with two point campus and two point museum. but I've only played hospital so far. I think its about as good as a sequel you can get with stepping on litigious copyright infringing toes. If the lack of mod cons is an issue, you can do a lot worse.

    Nice summary video of one of my favorite childhood games. I still replay Theme Hospital via CorsixTH every couple years when I feel the nostalgia. Note that there is a quality-of-life feature with CorsixTH that remembers your chosen items for a particular room, so for a subsequent build of that same type of room (e.g. a second GP Office), the items you previously bought for the room will be pre-selected.

    Loving the Trek reviews and bringing back childhood memories. But even as a child, I knew Generations fell short of The Final Frontier. The latter had all the optimism and character conflict of Star Trek that the former lacked at every turn. As for Kirk’s double demise, it’s nothing to Spock even though we learnt of the Vulcan’s reincarnation. II easily the best, followed closely by VI. The only TNG film worth mentioning is First Contact.
