Oh yes, it was - it was know as "I-War" (as in the rest of Europe), however.
That is - it was popular to a certain extent because I already said that it didn't get the attention it deserved in general...

Ironically, I even bought that game in Germany after having seen the awesome 14-minute intro being displayed on a huge TV-screen in a special stand dedicated to this particular title in Karstadt, I believe.
Oh yeah, I remember I-War. I never played it though cause I'm not really into space and what space is all about.

I do remember it though. I think I played the demo that came with PC Gamer then got bored and returned to my usual run and gun fare.

I'm usually not into SpaceSims as well - if a game managed to be the exception to the rule then it must have been REALLY good. ^^

As I said... even dunno the "German" title. Perhaps I played another spacesim in that time... ^^

Ok, I promise I'll stop with my strange PS games after this one :mrgreen:

It's a collection of mini-games, a bit like Wario Ware but not as short, and it's developed and published by Konami. The name is also a little wierd.

It's Bishi Bashi... Have you played this one? 0_o

God, I guess I'm no match for you when it comes to weird titles...

I'll (hopefully) bamboozle you with this one, then (ingenious game, BTW!):

Looks like an oldschool version of Flashback...

Post subject:  Re: Guessing games: The game edition

You are both close and far off at the same time.

Close, because SOME people think Flashback and this game are related, far off, because in reality they have nothing in common (except being 2D platformers). ^^

Someone's been reading Wikipedia! :-P

Your game is just too easy - actually I still have the unofficial multiplayer version on my computer... Master of Magic.

Hmmm... What will I choose next... Maybe something from the depths of my hard-drive. ^^

There are people who would recognize this game with their eyes closed - they would simply pick up the aura that emanates from it. ;-)

That's kinda like Oblivion for me. I'm really not a fan of RPG's. I straight up hate JRPG's actually.

For some reason, I fucking love Oblivion though. It's my favourite game on the 360 and that's really saying something.

Chim Richels takes the piss out of me. Calls me a Goblin lover. I dunno what it is about it, I pretty much hate anything like that usually. I even hated Lord of the Rings.

You're going to have to give som hints for that one Lim-Dul.

Btw, I was told that a suspicious-looking package from Poland arrived today, I'll know more when the bombsquad is finished and I get home in about 5 days.

Oh noes! Tell your family to handle it with care. You know, there's a motion and temperature sensor in there. ^^

As to the hints - ha, ha! A winn0r is me.

OK - it's the most famous indie-game ever. It's freeware and it friggin' kicks ass - alternative endings, around 20 hours (!) gameplay on the first run etc. =)
It may be ported to the NDS. ^^

I think Lim-Dul is out for being unfair... :mrgreen:

Post subject:  Re: Guessing games: The game edition

Nah - the game I posted is like 10 times more popular and well known than some of the crap you brought up. ;-)

I virtually gave you the Google query to find this title. :-D

Check out some site dedicated to indie games. Virtually every one of them mentions this game like a million times. Pfff... And there I thought you were good after finding "The Mark". :-P

Also, once you find it, PLAY IT. ^^

Oh fuck, it's Cave Story, I actually know about it, but I forgot what i looks like. I feel bad now :oops:

When you said depths of your harddrive I expected some obscure old game :?

Oh well, here's a fun game:

Pfff - General Chaos. And no, I didn't know the game - I just have a black belt in Googling. :-P

Now a quite easy one while I'm coming up with the next title that you won't be able to guess no matter what. ^^

Yay! I knew the flying Scotsman would know this game. Your turn, Highlander. ^^

Well I hadn't really prepared myself mentally for the challenge, but I will rise to it. You'll probably get it quick though.

Yeah, well, The Terminator: Future Shock.

Although I have to say that even though I'm quite the FPS expert (professionally) I didn't play many of the older ones since I pretty much HATED such games... 0_o

I still don't want to "drop the bomb" and will hence stick to the "oldies but goldies". Some people didn't enjoy the game I'm posting - well, I tell them: go fuck yourself, it's awesome. ^^

The Dig! Yes, the game is awesome.

I'll continue on the same line here, even though it's stupidly easy:

I love it, I'm currently playing through the new ones.

EDIT: Mcmoists screenshot is from SkyNET, but close enough I guess :D

LOL - there has been only one in 2D, Sam & Max Hit the Road. Awesome game - the sequels in 3D are *almost* as good as the first one - I have both seasons, of course. ^^

I think we'll let it count, though and it's your turn, NabNab...

You assume too much Lim. It's actually not Future Shock.
