The Inner Sphere is launching a counterattack on the Clans, and the Smoke Jaguars is the first target! Operation Democles will attack the planet Tranquil. As Connor Sinclair, you’re leading the Democles Commando team lance, part of the Eridani Light Horse, on the attack. The op went terribly wrong when one of the two drop ships was hit during descent, and your lancemates have been scattered to the four winds in the frenzied drop.
It’s 2014, and the soldier of the future returns to encounter a new and more imminent threat along the recently completed wall on the U.S./Mexico border. The Ghosts are more powerful with an upgraded Integrated Warfighter System (IWS), but will have only 72 hours to assess the threat and stop the rebels from reaching U.S. soil. With a border that’s 1,900 miles long and an enemy that doesn’t play by the rules, this is a job for the U.S. military’s most elite fighting unit. This is a job for the Ghosts.
NINA is an action-adventure game, with a good balance of both elements.
It is not meant to be another shooter with the intention to take out anything that moves just spiced up with adventure
elements, but a game where completing tasks and solving puzzles will be as important as eliminating opponents.
The action is likely to move towards a tactical shooter, where combat tactics and taking maximum advantage of available
weaponry has more importance than just fast reactions allowing shoot numerous opponents.

award-winning Dungeon Siege games, moves you out from the dungeons and into space.

In this spectacular sci-fi adventure, will you risk your own humanity to save the human race.
Max Payne
You play as the title character throughout the game.
Max is a modern-day New York undercover cop whose wife and baby daughter were brutally murdered and who has since been framed
for a heinous crime.
Thus begins his blood-soaked battle to find the truth–and to get revenge.

It’s very easy to get into, as the control is smooth, simple, and responsive.
You use the keyboard to make Max run in any direction and use the mouse to aim your weapons.
The game’s third-person camera perspective trails closely behind Max and gives a good sense of your surroundings, which is
important since you’ll need to move carefully through the game’s enemy-infested environments.
