21 of 21 · most liked firstBack in the day, I remember the story of the action-strategy game Hostile Waters seemed improbable. In the near future, the invention of nanotech promises a scarcity-free future. So the world's entire ruling class goes to war against their own people to maintain control. Now it feels prescient.

Mausritter stuff beyond the core book. Arkham Horror RPG scenarios. Hostile Waters for T2K At least one frivolous board game purchase.

unlabelledView post →Looking forward to the next couple of expansions for #Twilight:2000 from Free League. But ouch, both coming out on the same day, as if I wasn't broke enough as it is. If I get just one it'll probably be Hostile Waters as that seems to add more of what I want to the game. #TTRPG #T2K4

Slightly janky mix of real time strategy and action combined with a solid storyline by Warren Ellis and a voice cast including Tom Baker (Dr Who), Kate Ashfield (Shaun of the Dead), Paul Darrow and Glynis Barber (Blake´s 7). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2ezAOGs3SI #DoctorWho #Blakes7 #HostileWaters #Steam #GOG

unlabelledView post →Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising was a very strange and creative game. Set in a utopian future that *Mysterious Powers* want to destroy, you're put in command of the Antaeus,a previously sunken forge carrier to fight back, using the engrams of its former crew.
unlabelledView post →Took a bit to track that down on IMDB. For those who want to know it was part of a long running series of TV movies of the week on the BBC called Screen One. This one was called Hostile Waters. Written by Troy Kennedy Murphy who has had quite the career and brought us Big Joe, Crap Game & Oddball.

unlabelledView post →Finished "Hostile Waters: Antaeus Rising". Have CD in storage but grabbed it for 70p (about $1) in the Steam sale. Loved it in 2001 when released, but it's even better than I remembered!! Great voice actors (incl. Tom Baker) and gameplay, wonderful blast from the past. www.gog.com/en/game/host...
unlabelledView post →Hostile Waters: Anteus risoing real hidden cult classic. Unique ambitious game, unhinged story, but it for dollar on steam itll probably be better than whatever is in your 2024 backlog.
unlabelledView post →I knew the title but now I gotta check out the game. I like arcade racers. Incidentally, the review in Edge magazine was alongside such belters as Gigawing 2, Metal Slug X, Severance, Hostile Waters, Onimusha and Phantasy Star Online. Not the best review but maybe the stiff competition didn't help.
unlabelledView post →#HostileWaters is a tempting submarine-thriller, how at a cat-and-mouse-game a soviet and an US-submarine collide under water and trough this on the soviet one almost a catastrophe happend. Rutger Hauer plays the soviet commander. The movie reference to true events happend on #K219. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/hostile_waters
