Old Sierra games get some group action

PCFormat reports on some classic Sierra titles that are getting some love: "Martin Kool has been hard at work messing around with his beloved ol' skool Sierra adventure games and the result is Sarien, a little browser-based place for the playing of ol' Sierra adventures ... it's not just a kopy (sic) of the originals, Kool and kolleague Sjoerd Visscher have added in a unique multiplayer-ish element."

Sierra made the games of my childhood. Are they still fun to play?

Get ready for some nostalgia.

Yes,
and I absolutely loved the logo of Sierra for some reason.
Maybe, mainly because of F.E.A.R. 😈

EXACTLY what i was thinking!! My thoughts immediately went to FEAR as soon as i read Sierra.

Eidolon32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

Did they develop it? I thought it was Monolith.

Notellin31d ago

In video games there are two logos that appear before the title screen. One is the publisher and one is the developer.

In your question, Monolith is the developer so the logo they are speaking about is the one for Sierra, the publisher.

Hope this helps.

gurp32d ago

yes, everyone or at least most people should try to play some of them
I never played any 80s games, but played most of the 90's and early 2000's Sierra games

Played a lot of Sierra games as a kid and teenager. Fun times

Beat Cop PC preview - A very entertaining and brutal N.Y cop adventure/sim - TGG

Pixel Crow´s adventure/Cop sim "Beat Cop" is like a mix of "Police Quest", "Miami Vice", "Lethal Weapon" and "Mad Bull 34". Well, I (Robin Ek, TGG) really love that mix. So I enjoyed the pre-alpha demo of "Beat Cop" quite a bit, and this is the reason why.

Simon_the_sorcerer3182d ago

For a brief moment, I actually thought that Beat Cop was a beat-em-up game :P Oh well, the game looks rather cool any ways.

Littil_Devil3182d ago

Yes, I actually thought that Beat Cop was the cop version of Mother Russia Bleeds at first xD

TGG_overlord3182d ago

Nope, that´s just wishful thinking on your behalf ;)

TGG_overlord3182d ago

Well, no xD It´s an adventure/cop simulator :P

Littil_Devil3182d ago

I wonder if you can die or kill people in the full version of the game?

TGG_overlord3182d ago

That´s a good question, because you can´t die nor kill anyone in the demo.

Simon_the_sorcerer3182d ago

Well, unless you count the intro. Nevertheless, I coldn´t kill anyone in the demo :P

"Well, unless you count the intro. Nevertheless, I coldn´t kill anyone in the demo :P"

True, but I couldn´t even pull out Kelly´s gun in the demo. So I hardly doubt that one could kill anyone in the demo.
