Reply to Mech Warrior 5 is a good game by flabberghaster
sadly these games are few and far between these days, so i can recommend some new stuff, then a bunch of older stuff:
new stuff:
- Elite: Dangerous. The space flight sim of the modern era. Plenty of missions to do and pewpew if you like, or you can be a space trucker.
- X4: Foundations. More of an economic sim. Giant simulated world. Sometimes called Eve Offline.
- There really isn't any new mech stuff outside of Mechwarrior 5. Daemon X Machina is a recent mech game but that's a bit more arcadey, but may scratch the itch.
old stuff:
- X3: Terran Conflict and Albion Prelude. Older version of X series but much more mature and polished since it's had over ten years of updates. Also easier on weaker systems.
- Freespace 1 & 2. Excellent mission-to-mission space flight sims. True spectacles in their times. If you play these there's an open-source re-implementation of the engine.
- Independence War 2. My personal fav in high school. Neat mix of pirating, missions, trading, and it has a story but I don't remember how good it actually is.
- Mechwarrior 4 Mercenaries. Hard to get running on a modern machine but tons of fun if you can get it going.
- Mechwarrior 2, Mechwarrior 2 Mercenearies. Maybe a little too dated for today but they're classics.

this makes me wonder what does "too good" even mean? can a game be too good? i suppose we might not know until we see it.

Reply to Does anyone have any resources on how I might crash Super Mario 64? Preferably using a pendulum? (Please Commentate below) by twovests
-
take the pendulum from your favorite clock
-
while your nintendo 64 is running mario 64, smash the cartridge with the pendulum. aim to smack the cartridge out of the slot, though fully removing the cartridge isn't necessarily required to trigger the crash
-
with enough luck, the game will crash after a swing or two. it may take more depending on how weak and noodly your arms are
