  • Paradroid?
    Skeptics should forego any thought of convincing the unconvinced that we hold the torch of truth illuminating the darkness. A more modest, realistic, and achievable goal is to encourage the idea that one may be mistaken. Doubt is humbling and constructive; it leads to rational thought in weighing alternatives and fully reexamining options, and it opens unlimited vistas.

    • Nope

      Ok, Clue 3: It is a space based empire building strategy game.

      • Hmm, where's SC? He likes those.

        I can't think of a game with brain parasites for the minute.

          • Nope. You're on the right track though.

            Clue 4: Movement and combat was turn based when ships entered a 3 dimensional planetary system.

                  • That's a good guess. I'll guess:

                    Emperor of the Rising Suns.

                      • I did EotFS already a little while back, and I don't remember any brain parasites in it... of course, my copy broke years ago, so what do I know?
                        I make movies. Come check 'em out.

                          • Nope. Nada. Zilch.

                            I admit, this game was not widely popular, but I remember a decent review for it.

                            Clue 5: The game's AI sucked when it first came out causing the developer to come out with the Antagonizer AI patch, which made the AI still suck.

                            Clue 6: It won two awards in 1995 and 1996, a Codie Award and a PC Gamer Magazine Editor's Choice Award.

                            • I remember the antagonizer patch - it is Ascendancy

                              Still don't remember brain parasites.

                              • WooHoo! DrSpike is correct!

                                As I remember it the brain parasites were the Ungooma. They said they inhabited other alien's brains but they talked to you themselves. I liked Ascendancy, I thought it was a decent game, except of course for the AI.
