Giants - A Holiday Gone Wrong
Advantages: Three Sides, Vast Maps, Three-Way Multiplayer, Humour, Base-Building Disadvantages: Linear Story, Not For Minors
Giants - Citizen Kabuto was developed by Planet Moon Studios.
The first I heard of this game was from a demo some years back. It was three episodes into the main storyline and the first thing I noticed was how extensive the levels were.
For as far as the fog and view range would allow you, there was either terrain or water. The game is based on a series of islands, so the water is quite common. But as you proceed through the levels, you are faced ... ...Free hard disk space

The myteriously-titled MDK (It really doesn't stand for anything but MDK) is a third-person 3d shoot-em-up from Shiny, the makers of Earthworm Jim. God knows the story, but then you really don't need to; this is an arcade blaster through and through.
You play Kurt Hectic, who I'm told is a caretaker in a rubber suit. Don't ask. It's your job to parachutedown from your satellite base onto alien "minecrawlers", giant tank-thingies which are set to ... ...Sadly, classic though it is, MDK is bugged to hell and back. On my old computer, whenever I reached a certain point on the highlands level I fell though the floor and died. No way of avoiding it, no cheats could keep me alive, the floor just suddenly lost all solid properties and I dropped off the bottom of the level. Now I've installed it on my new computer Kurt just suddenly drops dead if I try to run in spotlit areas. This is the only reason I've ...
