tempest 2000 pc game download Download Tempest 2000. Back in the early 1980s, Atari's Tempest was one of the best-selling games on both home systems and in the arcades. Given the current prettier-means-better thinking in the computer games industry, it's no small wonder that Tempest 2000 has not followed the overly ambitious, let's-make-the-game-in-3D trend of some other recent video-game comebacks. Instead, Tempest 2000 tries to preserve the addictive fun while upping the "kinetic ante" of the original. In other words, it tries to compound on the original Tempest 's specialty, which is fast- paced, in-your-face noise and action. To that end, Tempest 2000 succeeds-perhaps far too well. As in the original the game allows players to manipulate a 3-D vortex while avoiding missiles and spikes. There are 3-D enemies, awesome weapons and many visual effects. The game is much, much harder than the 1980s original: webs don't just sit on the screen while you travel around them- they bob up and down and around, which sometimes means that one side of the web or the other is not always visible on the screen. All the original enemies in Tempest are here, plus you now get Mutant Flippers, Demon Heads, and UFO's, all much more aggressive and more elusive than the old enemies. To complicate things, "power-ups" are now sometimes fired at you, and if you catch them, you can get extra points, extra guys, laser beams (which emit a cool noisy effect), and the power to jump in the air and fire down on your enemies. You can even get an AI-controlled robot buddy that will help you in your kill-everything cause. Tempest was already fast-paced, but it's arguable that Tempest 2000 is just overly frantic. The game is definitely a much more difficult, noisier version of the original. I did get addicted all over again, though, what with the jumping, laser beams, and AI robots that greatly enhance gameplay And, in the end, Tempest 2000 is similar enough in gameplay to the original that it brings back a huge dose of nostalgia. You can even blast your friends in "Duel Mode," or team up in a "Team-Up Mode." Both die-hard fans of the original Tempest and newcomers will have much to like in this souped-up version of the arcade hit, although they should be prepared for some serious thumb-blistering sessions. Two thumbs up! Game Downloads. Game Downloads - Abandonware - PC - Arcade action - Games T-Te. Tempest 2000.

Tempest X. For being a top-of-the-line, next-generation system, the PlayStation is seeing its share of older, first-generation arcade games. The latest "classic" game to appear on Sony's machine is Tempest X. Tempest X is based on the arcade game from the early days of video games, Tempest. This new version allows you to play the original arcade version as well as newer, updated versions. While all the variations maintain the same style of gameplay as Tempest, they sport new graphics and features. For those few people who have not played the arcade version of Tempest or the Jaguar's Tempest 2000, Tempest is a highly addictive shooter in which you control a ship that moves around on a grid. Your mission is to blast enemy ships that advance toward you before they shoot you, or if they touch you, capture your ship. If you're feeling a bit nostalgic, you can play Tempest in all its vector graphical glory. There are five other modes of play available if you want to take advantage of the PlayStation's processing power. Tempest Plus is much like the original game, only with some snazzy new special effects, new power-ups and the fun option to play a two-player cooperative game or with an Al droid. Trippy 2000 is the same as Tempest 2000, except for a wacked-out "smearing" effect on everything on the screen. This leads to some truly "trippy" gameplay. Tempest X and Tempest Duel X are the most graphically intense games. They are essentially Tempest 2000, but with light sourcing on the levels and lens flair when you toast a bad guy. Tempest Duel X is obviously an extension of Tempest X, however, this mode is for the more competitive player. You and an opponent play on a split-screen, and each player is at separate ends of the arena. You have to destroy incoming enemies as well as dodge your opponent's fire. Aside from the same basic gameplay. all of the Tempest games share the same soundtrack. Kickin' techno music plays long and loud as you fight. Sure, it may not be actual sounds from the original game, but it fits the game well. Retro-gaming hits a high point with Tempest X. Not only do you get the original game but a ton of different variations. It's like getting six games in one Deals like that don't come along too often, especially for us old-time gamers.
