SpecialAttack.net :: Guessing games: The game edition

I read about it in a games magazine last month. Never played it though.

Someone else can post a game because I mostly know the mainstream ones.

Funny, so did I. A swedish magazine called SuperPlay.

Ha ha, love the commentary...and you must have practiced hours to do that

That's why I posted a non-mainstream game that is actually quite famous. I could post some other obscure titles which I'm sure have never been mentioned anywhere except for some post in a little-known forum. =)

P.S. Additional points for spotting the John Romero references in my video. ^^

Yep - "Suck it down!", too. There's another less famous quote (actually the Ion Storm motto) when I'm fighting the mini-boss and referring to "design is law". Romero brought it up quite often in the context of Daikatana and we all know what the project ended up being like. ^^

No.

It's Age of Chivalry - you're actually playing it, Mr Orange? I keep a close eye on the HL2 MOD community since I discovered many, many awesome HL1 MODs at times when I got bored with CS but I found this one to be pretty awful (at least at this stage of development).

I can answer for Baal: yes it is. ^^

I liked that game quite a lot as well. The mouse controls were awesome considering it was a space sim... The side-missions were kinda repetitive though. :-\

Your turn, Noxius.

anyone remembers this?

Rick Dangerous I had simpler graphics AFAIR. I think we should establish some additional rules that we don't post some "underground games" only 2 people in the world know about because I'm really tempted to post some exotic title nobody would be able to guess or find until I virtually provided you with the correct Google search query. ;-) However, I think this title might qualify - I simply want to promote it because it's awesome and its creator is such a nice and awesome guy:

Noitu Love2: Devolution I've got one right! wooot! I read about it in a games magazine last month. Never played it though. Someone else can post a game because I mostly know the mainstream ones.

Yup, Mr Orange - gratz. :-D As a little reward for you and to make good use of the Yutube tags Pim implemented recently I'm posting a little (hopefully) funny video of me playing Noitu Love 2 I recorded a while ago. (I edited the link so that it loads in the highest quality - beware, users with slow connections.) [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMUHLW9W ... 26fmt%3D18[/youtube] It really is an AWESOME game. It was nominated as a finalist in last year's Indie Games Festival and Joakim "konjak" Sandberg (a Swedish guy) made EVERYTHING himself - the sprites, the coding, the music... Well - he had some experience in the game industry before - he was working e.g. on Contra 4 for the NintendoDS. By all means buy it or download the demo - you won't be disappointed (no, I don't get anything for linking to konjak's site): http://www.konjak.org/ Quote: Someone else can post a game because I mostly know the mainstream ones. Go on then - there's no shame in that. Just choose the oldest and least known mainstream title you have played and post an ambiguous screenshot to make the whole thing even harder. ;-) Quote: Funny, so did I.

Quote: Ha ha, love the commentary...and you must have practiced hours to do that Oh, don't remind me of that. ;-) I can beat all the levels with like one or two hits but not getting hit at all is kinda hard because some attacks, enemies and/or projectiles are too random to avoid every time... Actually I have another no-hit walkthrough for the second level but I'm so lazy that I haven't gotten myself to record an audio commentary yet...

Okay, this is not a real 'game', more of a mod.

No. :-P It's Age of Chivalry - you're actually playing it, Mr Orange? I keep a close eye on the HL2 MOD community since I discovered many, many awesome HL1 MODs at times when I got bored with CS but I found this one to be pretty awful (at least at this stage of development). The only MODs I found to be worthwhile so far are Insurgency (good, but don't like it ;-), Dystopia (unbelievably polished for an amateur MOD - highly recommended), Eternal Silence (playable but needs some work), Iron Grip: The Oppression (a very ambitious and polished project but nobody seems to play it 0_o) and Pirates, Vikings & Knights II (developed slowly but steadily)... The HL2 MOD community isn't as lively as the HL1 MOD community used to be. I believe it's connected to the greater skill requirement for doing anything sensible in the SourceEngine...

I can answer for Baal: yes it is. ^^ I liked that game quite a lot as well. The mouse controls were awesome considering it was a space sim... The side-missions were kinda repetitive though. :-\ Your turn, Noxius.

Do you mean patch 1.11? Because I found it quite entertaining. They fixed a lot of things that bugged me before like you couldn't block arrows with your shield and holding the shield up just ate away your stamina. I don't play it anymore because after playing sporadically for two weeks, it got repetitive.
