One Must Fall: 2097

Yes, we can see that...

I vaguely remember a 'One Must Fall' game from my youth...I had this other really crappy game that I played...maybe it's the same one...does it feature this insect-like creature which is green and kinda looks like a praying mantis?

 

Hmmm...seem to remember something...trying very hard...Argh, it's on the tip of my mind, but I just can't quite grasp it...

 

Never heard of this game before... quite interesting. There're similar games last year, that you build your own robots and train them to fight (or take manual control) and fight AI offline or people online. I haven't tried that one.

Well, now I got my free robo-fight-sim. Currently practicing on the "punchbag" level... :grin:

Thanks for the link!

Also have you experience some random crash to desktop? I have quite a lot of this on Win2k (in my office). e.g. go single player and move the robot select cursor around - boom! - CTD. Tournamet mode kicks me out too, though not always.

 

Well the readme lied... it said at the beginning that it will tell you how to make the moves - it doesn't.

No matter. I found these from a google search:

There have been a few requests for One Must Fall moves. So I thought it
would be a good idea to post all of the information that I have.

I have to apologize to the original authors of these thing. I kind of
lost their addresses and names so I can't give them credit

ALES@NETCOM.COM found a way to change the colors of the 'bots in
2-player or 1-player:
use your keyboard in the 'bot selection phase, hit the 1,2 and 3 key for
'bot one's color (not keypad) and the 4,5 and 6 key to change the color
of
the second 'bot.
This list was compiled with many different postings in C.S.I.P.G.A with
some
other moves I have found during my marathon sessions.

Easy Special Moves
keyboard:

direction attack
7 8 9 P,K
4 5 6
1 2 3

You can find the key combos in the fighter*.af.
For instance, P25852 is "D,U,D+P".
2 means DOWN. 5 means delay? 8 means UP.
You can modify these definitions of moves for easy playing.
Of course, you should have a correct moves list first in order to find
the right pattern.

And be sure to fill 0x00 at the end of key combos!

Fightin can be very fun... or not.. I wonder if this thing will work under Win2000...that thing doesnt even have DOS! Oh, no. :sad: I think I remember games older than that... There was a fighting game called.. Bushido or something... there was 4 areans I think, and 4 type of guys..diff weaopons. black and white... we had alotta fun with that.

 

Are you talking about "Budo Ken"? You fight lots of people (one-on-one) and finally come to the big boss who uses the same weapon as you do. And you have one bar for Health and one bar for Stamina (for more damage)? And you make special moves by pressing something like 4-6-Shift, 4-8-Shift?

IIRC the four weapons are: Bo, Nunchaku, Sword (Japanese wooden) and Melee.

I love that game... it's one of my favourites on my 8088. Pity that I don't have it anymore.

Anyone remembers (or knows about) D-Generation? A game about Bio-weapons outbreak and a delivery boy (who luckily has access to a laser pistol) trapped inside a 89-floor building?

 

Oops, sorry about that. But I don't know how long will that source last (found on newsgroups), and my WebSamba account is not working

 

Budo-ken maybe... if u have a site about it I might recognize the screenshots or something... I don't remember playing singpleplayer much, I played with my brother... maybe friends too.

 

Try Home of the Underdogs if your looking for anything old.

http://www.theunderdogs.org

 

Yeah I know those sites... there's also http://www.freeoldies.com which has no downloads but a good search engine. I got heroes 1 from there... they don't work under win2k tho :sad:... but they are really fun. None of the old games work on win2k tho... different file system and it doesnt support dos. :sad: There was also a site that collected old fighters...forgot the url tho

 

That would be because Win2k is NT5 and NT blows unless you have a large network.

 

I do have a network... besides win98 blows too.

 

2, 3 or 4 computers isn't really a network that requires NT loo...

 

Thanks guys for the links!

I found lots of really old games that I wish to get my hands on again!

You can get "BudoKan" and "D/Generation" from freeoldies.com! Also Prince of Persia2 (I have PoP1 too)!

Unfortunately the DGen isn't working well... after going through 2 rooms it quits with message "Hardware Configuration Changed! Reinstall D/Generation". Tried all possible ways, but no avail.
