I still haven't played a run and gun platformer on the PC that beats Abuse.

i played this as a kid and i had a blast

unfortunately no other game comes close to it

Abuse is simply one of best classic PC games. It's a shame Crock Dot Com didn't really stick around!

Have this on my 486/33 (same model as LGR's, on right). It's maybe 15-20fps but easily playable.

Holy shit someone else remembers this! It has some great atmosphere, too. I liked to play this lat at night with the lights off

What is this new meme game I've been seeing lately? Is it really that good or is it just a meme game?

>> No.2576384

There is an indie gaming coming out that plays like Abuse. Can't find it though. Solly.

>> No.2576386

>>2576325

How about you play it or at least Google it to find out for yourself instead of assuming everything you see on 4chan more than twice is a "meme"?

>> No.2576389

Found it! It's called MegaSphere. I think it looks amazing.
Intrusion 2 plays similar, but totally different atmosphere.

Is it easy to get an emulator running to play Abuse?

I found it played fine on DOSBox so long as the directory for the game was located on my C: drive. Didn't like being anywhere else.

It takes 2d platforming to intense survival action. It reminds me of dark forces or tomb raider with maze-like doors and lifts. Enemies are like alien games. Its not a complete rip off of Predator. It is a classic game, not a meme.

I doubt todays kids are man enough to play Abuse.

Why the fuck aren't there any noteworthy doujinsoft run n guns? They make thousands of shoot 'em ups, but they've never really supported the run n gun genre like they have shmups or fighting games.

'twas a top game. Another more primitive classic similar to it but with cartoon graphics was Halloween Harry. Think it released under a different name in some countries.
