Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn Full Version IMBACORE Friday, 19 March 2010
What was the last strategy game you played that had you so addicted you still think in the late hours of the night how to go about overcoming the defenses of stubborn AI-controlled bases that had obliterated every last unit you threw at them?
In all the years that I’ve been playing strategy games, the answer is one and the same: Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn.
The answer amused and shocked me as a few weeks ago, as I was mopping up what was left of a GDI base, I exclaimed “Heh!” with a smug grin. I haven’t felt so triumphant since 12 years ago, back when 486 systems reigned supreme and I was playing ---
--- Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn, the. Exact. Same. Game.
Command & Conquer owes its charm to the traditional you-against-a-dumb-AI-with-resources-as-prodigious-as-Bill Gates single player campaign scheme. It may be annoying for some but it certainly glues me to my keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Who can remember the frustration and challenge of throwing Medium and Mammoth Tanks at an Obelisk of Light while MLRS work on the laser tower from behind only to witness despairingly as the AI erects another obelisk seconds later?.Read more...
Full Spectrum Warrior Lag Stutter Framerate Problems and How to Solve Them Thursday, 18 March 2010
I recently came across the news that Full Spectrum Warrior had been released as a downloadable free full version shooter game years ago. I downloaded the installer, installed the game, and... got confounded. The game ran alright --- except that my mouse lagged big time, the intro stuttered, and the free PC FPS game produced abysmal framerates. Read more...
New GameStand Blog
After some consideration I have decided to move the GameStand blog from Wordpress to Blogger. I have done this for one simple reason; Wordpress took too much time and effort to maintain and was overly complicated for what I needed for a blog. So here we are.
Warmonger: Operation Downtown Destruction: IMBACORE
One of these is Warmonger: Downtown Destruction, a game developed by NetDevil. Now released as a downloadable free PC FPS game, Warmonger was made to fully integrate physics-related gimmicks into its multiplayer-centric gameplay. I couldn’t find any information on how Warmonger found its way into Nvidia’s downloadable Graphics Plus Power Packs but the free PC FPS multiplayer shooter now acts as the flagship of the bunch of freebies, giving players the whole nine yards of what it feels like to have a physics-intensive game.
Being a PhysX-centric game, when it comes to physics effects, Warmonger delivers in spades. The game is riddled with elements that flagrantly announce it to be a PhysX game. You turn a corner, a banner blocks your way, undulating and flapping in the breeze. You brush it aside and find yourself in an open area, cinders floating past you in a realistic manner as you run towards the sound of a firefight. You arrive at the scene and hastily take cover behind a concrete barrier as a hostile opens up with his chaingun. The concrete cover you ran from breaks apart in chunks. You take a bead, alt-fire, and launch a grenade. The thing sticks on the chaingunner. He runs towards you, in a desperate attempt to take you with him but blows apart several feet away, chunks of meat flying in all directions. These little things thoroughly immerse you in the urban-themed arenas of this free PC first-person shooter. Read More...

GameStand v2.5 Released! Sunday, 22 November 2009
I have been working on a UI overhaul of the site. I have listened to feedback about the current site and had more inspiration for it. This update includes some major tidying up of code. This meant hours of trawling though finding errors useless code and also rewriting the CSS page. But as you can see the update has been rolled out and the site looks better than ever.
The next step is the look out for bugs and fix them (I already have a list of bugs to fix).
Changes Summery:
- New revised design to improve the overall quality feel of the site
- Major coding overhaul to improve performance and make my life easier
- Revised categories
- More Patches
- More free MMORPG games (Suggestions welcome)
- Removal of the wibiya bar
- Improved Ad placements
There are still items to complete, these include:
- New file search
- Repair RSS (GGRRRR keeps breaking)
- Integrating Google friend connect (specifically the review widget)
- New download and editors pick buttons
- Lots of random fixes
- Improved blog theme
Once these last additions are done and the bugs fixed that should be it for the site design. I may even remove the beta tag from my logo!
Enjoy the Site!

Assult Tech 1: Battletech
New Game: AT1:BT, a classic Mechwarrior2 remake, developed entirely from scratch, combines 'stompin elements from the entire Mechwarrior series.
AssaultTech1: BattleTech Released on Mek Tek X
IMBACORE added:
Mektek.net surely has gotten an overhaul yesterday --- the site now has a brand new interface; it even shows a short animation clip of a Vulture (if memory serves). It also has a link to its YouTube channel.
MekTek.net Releases v2.3 of its Downloadable Mechwarrior 2 Remake - Assault Tech 1: Battletech [IMBACORE]
Celebrating our 10 year anniversary (and BattleTech's 25th anniversary) MekTek.net is pleased to announce the immediate community release of AssaultTech1: BattleTech version 2.3.0 (better known as AT1:BT). Mechwarriors, the wait is over, choose your mech, choose your map, and choose your battle in 'instant action style gameplay, featuring classic BattleTech rules, in this latest standalone installment of MekTek's MechWarrior action-simulator. Since our last AT1 release, 2.3.0 features more Mechs, new weapons, new singleplayer maps and dozens of upgrades to our ICE engine including water, weathering, and vegetation rendering updates. AT1:BT is not only sure to satisfy the Mechwarrior's thirst for battlemech action but is also sure to satisfy any gamer's appetite for mech havoc.
AT1:BT, a classic Mechwarrior2 remake, developed entirely from scratch, combines 'stompin elements from the entire Mechwarrior series. AT1:BT was initially developed by Benzine Studios, later adopted by Studio MekTek Inc. in conjunction with our community effort MekTek.net. For more information about AT1:BT, including new content and previews, visit MekTek at: http://www.mektek.net/.
MekTek.net was founded in 1999 to provide free downloadable content and tools for the Mechwarrior series. In the past MekTek.net's developments were entirely reverse engineered because Mechwarrior3 and 4 are closed source engines. Recently, Studio MekTek Inc. was established in 2006 as a private software development studio specializing in 3D development and provides development support to the MekTek.net community. MekTek's commitment to this project is to continue the ongoing AT1 effort and follow through with the direction set forth by Benzine Studios and continue developing AT1 with these interests aligned.
