    Hostile Waters

    I was just pootling around gog.com and I noticed they have Hostile Waters for $5.99!

    Does anyone else remember this game? It was an awesome mix of 3rd person arcade tank battles (and helicopters, hovercraft and pulsating alien things) and strategy. The script was written by Warren Ellis and the voiceover by Tom Baker, sheer quality from begining to end.

    And they've got Giant which was also amazing as well.

    (Edit: And Sacrifice, and MDK 1 and 2, I'm coming over all faint...)

    Especially when they started moaning when you put them in a vehicle that they didn't like.

    I played the demo, but never played the full game. However, it did make get Carrier Command on my Amiga emulator and give that another go. Now that was a classic!
