Can you think of video games for Windows that can be controlled using the MOUSE?

August 14th, 2012 3 comments

Do you know of any action, adventure, or sports games for Windows that have mouse control in the actual game play?

Depends on what you are implying in your question. But I think what you mean to say is if there are any games that are solely controlled by the mouse for the Windows operative system.

If that is the case, I know of tons of games, however the quality varies as fewer buttons cause for less complex gaming. However if you seek easy, casual action gaming I can recommend "Hammerfight", "Rag Doll Kung Fu", "Ninja Reflex", and alot more, just pm me if you wish for me to compile a list, and I’ll see what I can manage to do in my spare time.

Other than that in the action genre: I believe that "Alien Shooter" series and the "Zombie Shooter" can be solely controlled by a mouse, and those are indeed very action packed.

But if the case is that you seek adventure rather than action, then perhaps you should seek out the "point and click" adventures. There are tons worth mentioning but just to mention a title, then the "Sam & Max" series from "Telltale Games" is a good place to start. But then again, ofcourse, if you’re into hard puzzles and braindrenching games that leaves your braincells numb and devestated then perhaps you should definately try out the "Myst" series.

I’m not much of a sports-game person so unfortunately I can’t help you there, but I do fancy some puzzle-games that you might want to look into. Don’t get me wrong, I do not enjoy playing "Tetris" or other old concepts, I rather loathe slowpaced and monotone gameplaying. That is why I feel it is neccessary to inform you and the rest of society, that puzzle- and casual games has evolved ALOT since "Tetris".

Therefore, to end this answer I would like to suggest a few that I enjoy very much, using only mouse ofcourse, that I implore anyone to try out:

"Peggle"
"Puzzle-Geddon"
"Osmos"
"Plants vs. Zombies"
"Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords" ("Galactrix" weren’t just as much fun IMPO)
"Gyromancer"
"Zuma"
"Luxor"
"Eets"
"Cogs"

…and too many to mention here, lol… 🙂 Just let me know on PM if you want more suggestions. Other than that, I can tell you by experience that "PopCap" games in general are alot of fun if you seek to play short sessions. I’ve tried the most, so… If you like my taste, feel free to ask me if I’ve tried a title and what I thought of it… 😉

html/php/mysql display images side by side?

July 7th, 2012 2 comments

Hey Everyone,

Well what i am trying to do is display my categorys(with there picture) side by side. heres an example of what i am trying to do

action arcade
action.jpg arcade.jpg

shooting sports
shooting.jpb sports.jpg

right now it displays as the following

action
action.jpg

arcade
arcade.jpg

shooting
shooting.jpg

sports
sports.jpg

i am not sure if its something in my html i need to change or something i need to add from php or mysql. Here is what i currently have. name2 is the name of the category, products_image is the name of the image.

$result = mysql_query("SELECT products_image,name2 FROM categorypics order by pd_id");

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo "<table>";
echo "<tr><td class=’categoryheads’>
$row[name2]</td></tr>";
echo "<td><img src=\"$row[products_image]\"
alt=\"\" /></td>\n";
echo "</table>";
}

if someone could explain what i am doing wrong, i would really appreciate it.

Thank you,
Rach

echo "<table><tr>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
echo "<td class=’categoryheads’>
$row[name2]<rb/>";
echo "<img src=\"$row[products_image]\"
alt=\"\" /></td>\n";
}
echo "</tr></table>";
this will outputs
action…….arcade……..shooting…….sports
action.jpg..arcade.jpg..shooting.jpg..sports.jpg
if you want in on two lines:
$col = 0;
echo ("<table>");
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
if ($col == 0)
echo ("<tr>");
echo "<td class=’categoryheads’>
$row[name2]<rb/>";
echo "<img src=\"$row[products_image]\"
alt=\"\" /></td>\n";
$col++;
if ($col == 2)
{
echo ("</tr>");
$cnt = 0;
}
}
echo "</tr></table>";

(replace <rb/> by the real thing [stupid editor])

Which Action/Shooter/adventure Video Games would you reccommend based on this?

June 25th, 2012 3 comments

I Love Games that give you Loads of weapons, which provide many ways to get rid of enemies and what not. I prefer games that have Rocket launchers, Handguns, Rifles, Shotguns, High-Tech Weapons, Grenades, Automatic Pistols, Grenade Launchers, and just about everything in between And Beyond. Games in which you could upgrade guns are most preferable. Like upgrading Capacity, and Firepower, and all kinds of other things that would make a weapon better. I have always enjoyed "Resident Evil 5", and all the other RE games growing up, before getting my Xbox 360 ELite about three months ago. I like "Assassin’s Creed", "Grand Theft Auto series", "Tony Hawks" Video games (Tony Hawks are a sports video games), "Dead Space", and others. I dont like video games where you cant see the character, because all you can see is in front of the character, and everything adjacent to him/her. (And the way the screens bounce up with the character, when he is supposedly "Jumping"? Ugh!). I’m stuck on a part in "Dead Space", I’v Beaten "Episodes of Liberty City", Beaten the hell out of "Resident Evil 5", and mastered everything ("Dead space" being the exception of course). What kinds of games would provide the type of thrill I’m searching for? Also Games with weapons like Swords, bats, and Knives are still really cool! I just want a game that gives me different ways to get rid of the enemy.
I love games that have hard enemies, so I can have a challenge each time. I dont like games with super short storylines, ones that only take three weeks to beat. Part of my thrill is having a limited amount of space to keep items in, so that Its even more challenging! Finally, games where you can Go to a type of store to make purchases are among some of my most prefered styled games.
Again, I’d Prefer a game where I can see the charater themselves, and not just the actions they’re performing. Remember, I’m a hardcore Gamer! I’m Looking for something truly addicting.

modern warefare 2 (it has 3rd person shooter modes online and all the customisation your after)
mas effect 1 and 2 (multiple weapons and powers to kill enemys)
fallout 3 (free roam, weapon colecting and customisation)
borderlands (its cartoony and free roam, not played it myslef but has a lot of customisation weapons)
