Forum Overview :: Article Submissions :: Deadlock / Deadlock II

[quote name="Ice Cream Jonsey"][quote name="laudablepuss"]I take it you haven't played Deadlock 2, though? Not as sophisticated as AC but with (in broad strokes) a simillar plot, and AI that's probably the dumbest I've ever seen in any game, ever. On the other hand, it had a really cool tech tree, neat alien races, and strategic battle cutscenes made-to-order. What I mean is: you throw a bunch of balistic missiles, some fighters and bombers, a bunch of tanks and infantry and whatever else all into your enemy's city space, then watch as the computer makes a little movie showing the ensuing battle. It's just the coolest thing. Sadly, you have hardly any tactical control of the units. But that's okay considering the trade-off.[/quote] I thought that game sounded familiar. I have no idea where I picked it up, but I have the first Deadlock sitting in my CD rack. I think I remember not hating it. I guess I will go hop on eBay and try to get the second one. [/quote]
