@cadellin Again Worms being the one game that gets multiple mentions.
It was also the game in my #1995InVideoGames posts that got way more boosts and favorites than any other game with no competition.
I had no contact with the rest of the videogame world outside of my circle of 8 kids from my class. But I am wondering if Worms was widely perceived as one of the hit sensations of 1995 back 30 years ago.
Or it was just really compelling to people who would later make Mastodon accounts. 😆

And this concludes the #1995InVideoGames series. It will be continued next year with #1996InVideoGames, though it's going to be a couple of weeks before the first major game's 30th release date.
Hopefully with all games being posted on time in the correct order, now that I am much better prepared.

The big surprises for me where Ceasar II and The Dig with both at 10/4, MechWarrior 2 with 12/3, and WipEout with 11/7.
But the uncontested winner of popular support was Worms with 39 favorites and 22 boost! 🎇 😮
But it really was, and still is, a really great game. 😄
The lineup for 1996 is the same length as it was for 1995, but as someone who started playing in 97/98, I think there's a lot more big famous classics reaching 30 next year.

One thing I noticed doing the #1995InVideoGames series is that people here on Mastodon seem to have been much more PC players 25-30 years ago than console players.
Always much more favorites and boosts for PC games than for console games.And fighting games in particular got almost no responses at all. Street Fighter Alpha got 4 favorites and 1 boost, Tekken and Killer Instinct both got 1 favorite each, and Mortal Kombat 3 got nothing at all.

Terminator: Future Shock was released 30 years ago in December 1995.
A game that has been pretty much forgotten for a long time, and I've never seen anybody talk about. But it's noteworthy for having been developed by Bethesda. This is what they were doing between Arena and Daggerfall. And apparently, and surprisingly for a movie licensed game, it was considered to be really quite good.

Albion was released 30 years ago around the 16th December 1995.
To me, this is one of the most amazing and important games ever released, though I wouldn't say it's a particularly good one. I only actually played it very late, and still only got possibly halfway through it at most, but I've known about since when I first encountered any PC games at all. This is a kind of pulp space fantasy that nobody does anymore.

Terminal Velocity was released 30 years ago in May 1995. A Windows version was released later in September as Fury3, which was the first game to run natively in Windows 95.
Playing this coming from X-Wing and TIE Fighter, this game was different and much simpler. But it plays a lot like Quake in a fighter plane, which was a real blast.

I changed my method by which I select games for #1995InVideoGames in October, from basically just games I remember being big names to actually researching what games came out during the late 90s and early 2000s. And of course, there were so many games I had not thought of and the list has grown by several times.
This includes some games from early 1995 whose 30th release day I of course missed, so for December I'll be covering all of those until we've caught up again. -
