Guess the Game from the Screenshot

[Draekon]

I believe the third one is The Legend of Dragoon. I got so far in that game, and then I got distracted by something else and never finished it... I should dig it out again.

Yep, it's Rose overlooking a dragon in the forest below before she saves the main characters ass early on in the game if I remember correctly.

[dwhelan]

Both Blue Wing and Draekon are correct.

[Rodimus]

This might be hard for most of you young folk

[johnnypark]

Damn Rod, those are some tiny screens!

Last one is Chrono Cross, though.

[Jack]

Is 5 Elemental Gimmick Gear?

[Zmonkay]

4 is Bloody Roar 4

5 looks really really familiar, but can't place it...

[tangytangerine]

2 is that horrible NES X-Men game

[Rodimus]

Sorry about the size of the pics. I acidentally uploaded it as a small image. Anyways you guys got a few.
2. X-Men (NES)
5. Elemental Gimmick Gear
6. Chrono Cross

Some tips:
#1 is actually very easy, but I photoshoped something out.
#3 & 4 are games that aren't out yet.

[Nogib]

You're right, #1 was way too easy (even before this hint).

It'd be Mega Man 2 :D

[Rodimus]

You're right, #1 was way too easy (even before this hint).

It'd be Mega Man 2 :D

^ Correct. I took out the helmet, but I figured it wouldn't be too hard.

[Jack]

I think 3 is Dragon Quest IX.

[Rodimus]

I think 3 is Dragon Quest IX.

Correct. Now just #4.

[fart_bubble]

#4 isn't King Of Fighters: Maximum Impact, is it?

[Rodimus]

^ nope

Im on Disk 2 the last time i played it (like 2 or so years back). Yea, thats from the intro. Its a really good game...

[Chacrana]

is 4 like... Arcana Hearts 2 or something?

[Rodimus]

^ nope. Here's a hint: it's a sequel to a series we haven't seen in about 10 years.

[Strell]

Toshinden Wii.

Originally I thought it was the fighting game coming to the DS from your screen, but I couldn't find the title of it, so I gave up on trying to solve the question.

[Rodimus]

^ Yeah that's it. Again sorry for the pics being so small.

[fart_bubble]

wow, didn't know they were still making games in the Toshinden series

[Chacrana]

Yeah, it's a shame.

[Z_meista]

wow... they're making toshinden again?

[Rodimus]

It was announced about a month or so ago. From the screens I didn't see any returning characters or connections to the previous games. IMHO It doesn't look so hot.

[Z_meista]

yah...
it doesn't look too promising.

[fart_bubble]

only one good character in the whole series was Fo Fai

Alas, tripod blocked the image and opening it directly kinda spoiled it... Although there are very few options for the Sim City on the moon game.

[PhrostByte]

Alas, tripod blocked the image and opening it directly kinda spoiled it... Although there are very few options for the Sim City on the moon game.

Yeah.. I figured it might not be overly easy since no one I know has ever even heard of it.

[foltzie]

Yeah.. I figured it might not be overly easy since no one I know has ever even heard of it.

True, but before posted the answer I did search for Sim City, Moon and Mac, which confirmed the answer.

Still, good one.

[PhrostByte]

It was on Windows though. :]

[foltzie]

It was on Windows though. :]

It was? That looks like Mac OS... I never recall Windows 3.x having the top only menu bar.

Of course, I guess this game would be maximized.

Hmm...

[Chacrana]

Good luck:

Yeah 5 is Secret of Mana, but thats all I got.

[Zmonkay]

2 is Infected (finally got one!)

[tangytangerine]

1 is Ashen for N-gage

I want Christmas to stay out of my RPGs

[Strell]

Yeah! I hate it when things I don't like are in things I like! Makes me want to tell people all around me!

[fart_bubble]

2 is Infected (finally got one!)

for a low budget game, you really could do a lot worse than play this game. I had quite a bit of fun with it

[dwhelan]

3. Christmas NiGHTs

[tangytangerine]

1. Kakuto Chojin
3. Tao Feng

[Rodimus]

#2 is Eternal Champions, probably the Genesis version.

I'm guessing this is an obscure fighting game trend. #4 kinda reminds me of those X-Men fighting games on the PS1, but I know that's wrong.

[dwhelan]

1. Kakuto Chojin
3. Tao Feng

Correct on both

#2 is Eternal Champions, probably the Genesis version.

I'm guessing this is an obscure fighting game trend. #4 kinda reminds me of those X-Men fighting games on the PS1, but I know that's wrong.

Actually, you know what, I will give it to you. 2 is Eternal Champions: Challenge from the Dark Side for the Sega CD, but it is based on the Eternal Champions engine and really just a title update, not a sequel.

No luck on 4 though

[Strell]

5 is Rise of the Robots.

[Rodimus]

^ Then I guess I was wrong. Must be the CD version. I just thought it looked a little cleaner on Sega CD.

[Rodimus]

Here's one:

3 looks similar to Ghost in the Shell PS1 or PSP?

[Jack]

3 looks similar to Ghost in the Shell PS1 or PSP?

Correct. It's the PS1 game.

[Rodimus]

That little blue guy in #2 reminds me of Rent-a-Hero.

The only one I recognized was #3. Infact I think it's made it's way in this thread before.

[mguiddy]

Sometimes I really hate this thread...
#1 looks so familiar and I know I played #2... but I cannot remember the name.

[PhrostByte]

You guys are crazy good at this.. I've known like maybe 3 of all the screenshots.. total haha

[Rodimus]

It's late and once again I'm bored at work, but these shouldn't be too hard:

[PhrostByte]

5 is Shaq-Fu 64.

[Jack]

1. Astra Superstars
2. Adventures in the Magic Kingdom
4. Seiken Densetsu 3 (I think)

[Chacrana]

4 is Seiken Densetsu 3 I think.

5 strikes me as Shenmue 2 for some weird reason, though I'm pretty sure it's not.

1 is Astra Superstars.

6 looks incredibly familiar... damnit... it's on the tip of my tongue.

[J7.]

2. Adventures in the Magic Kingdom
4. A Mana title?
5. 50 cent/Tekken 5?

[Zmonkay]

4 is DEF. SD3. hands down one of the best games nobody knows (VC release please!)
6 is Super Magnetic Neo (still gotta try that out one of these days)

[Chacrana]

6 is Super Magnetic Neo (still gotta try that out one of these days)

That's what it was!!

Man, I couldn't sleep... just kept trying to figure out what game that was... now I know.

[Rodimus]

Yep, you guys got 1,2,4, & 6.

Now just 3 & 5.

Surprised no one's got #5 yet. Especially from the folks visiting from the fighting thread.

[Chacrana]

Shoot... Tekken 4?

[ced]

#5's King of Fighters: Maximum Impact 2.

[Rodimus]

Yes, the guy in #5 is Richard Meyer the orginal SNK Capoeira fighter. However in Max Impact 2 he was pretty much a Soiree clone.

Now just #4. Here's a hint: It's a Dreamcast game that was also released on PC.

[mguiddy]

WOOT!
I knew it was Silver, but couldn't remember the name. Knowing it was also on the Dreamcast was a big help in figuring it out.

[Rodimus]

Yep, you guys got them all.

[Rodimus]

Here's 8 more. I tried picking screneshots that wouldn't give the game away too easily.

[Jack]

3 is Klonoa 2

[mguiddy]

ChernobylCow's #e is Blade of Darkness/Severance.
And as I thought, I'm smacking my head right now...

[ChernobylCow]

Kudos. That was fast. Hope this fits in the old school category. They're all pretty old PC games.

[Chacrana]

good memories, those

[Nathan_Sama]

is #6 Chibi robo?

[Rodimus]

So far you guys got:
#1 - Mega Man Command Mission
#2 - Virtua Quest
#3 - Klonoa 2
#4 - Galactic Wresting
#5 - Vanguard Bandits
#6 - Chibi Robo

#7 & #8 are still up for grabs. They're both well known games, but the scenes are just a little obscure.

[foltzie]

Is #7 Marvel Ultimate Aliance?

[testla19054]

im not sure out this but i think 7 is marvel ultimate alliance

[Rodimus]

Yeah it is. Thought it might confuse some people ;)

[foltzie]

Yeah it is. Thought it might confuse some people ;)

It did, so I searched for Pitfall and looked for Pitfall 2, but when the scene didnt fit I just kept reading the Wikipedia and found out about the MUA level.

Which reminds me, I need to catch up on MUA.

[Rodimus]

If you look closly that's "The Thing" jumping over a pit.

[sp00ge]

2) Virtua Quest
4) Galactic Wresting
5) Brigand
7) Pitfall 2


don't know for sure but is #8 Skies Of Arcadia? Could have sworn there were enemies that looked like that

Isn't #7 actually Marvel Ultimate Alliance, from Arcade's level?

EDIT: Nevermind... I should finish to the last post before quick posting... I'm going to bed.

[lazersheep]

#8 is from Suikoden III (one of my favorite games :mrgreen:).

[Rodimus]

Yep, you guys got them all. I'll probably post some more tonight. ANother boring day at work.

[Rodimus]

#3 is Dragon Spirit (NES version)

#2 kinda looks like the Star Solider series......

[Jack]

Dragon Spirit is correct. #2 is not part of the Star Soldier series.

[Backlash]

They look so familiar, but I can't quite place any of them. Is 4 Life Force?

[Jack]

Is 4 Life Force?

It is not.

[Rodimus]

I think I got a couple:

#4 Is this part of the Star Solider series?
#5 Aleste, not sure which one, maybe the first one.
#6 Gun Nac

[Jack]

You got #5 and #6. #5 is Aleste, better known as Power Strike in the US. #4 is not part of the Star Soldier series.

That leaves #1, #2, and #4.

[joeyd07]

#4 isn't Zanac, is it? Don't recognize that boss but the art style is similar.

[Jack]

#4 is not Zanac.

[handsome_rakshas]

Is it Recca?

[Jack]

Is it Recca?

It is. That leaves #1 and #2.

[Darkside Hazuki]

#2 is Astro Warrior. Thought it was Blade Eagle 3D at first...

B is TransBot (SMS, had to look this one up, but the boxart was extremely familiar).
C is Magmax (NES).
D is Xexyz (NES).

G--Operation wolf?

[fart_bubble]

G is Operation Wolf. Dropped quite a few tokens in that game
I isn't one of the games off the Super Scope 6 (the game that came with the Super Scope) is it?

[Jack]

Yes, G is Operation Wolf. I is not the Super Scope game.

[Segasonic01]

is L Wild Gunman?

[Jack]

is L Wild Gunman?

Nope.

[fart_bubble]

I think I know what J is but I can't remember the name of it. It was a game for the Master System

[Strell]

F is Freedom Force, which is a funny coincidence.

That's all I know for now.

[J7.]

K Gotcha

[Darkside Hazuki]

J is Gangster Town.

[bvharris]

K Gotcha

Definitely. That was one of the first games I ever owned on the NES since Gotcha! was my favorite movie as a kid.

[Jack]

Freedom Force, Gotcha, and Gangster Town are all correct. That leaves H, I, and L.

[fart_bubble]

J is Gangster Town.

thats the game, I was beating my head on the wall trying to remember it. It was one of the games I got when Children's Palace was having a huge markdown on all MS games for $3 a piece and the system was $25 (already had one at the time though). Remember bugging my dad to drop about $75 on games that day. Shit was glorious

[Jack]

6 is Crusader of Centy. I bought it at a thrift store and was stoked to find out it was an RPG, my first on the Genesis.

Lovin' the penguin theme, by the way. :D

[Strell]

Pengin theme!

2 is Penguin Land (IIRC) and is from the Sega Master System. Now that I think about it, sort of a paternal pre-pre-pre Mister Driller sort of game. INFURIATING. I have no idea why I played it so much as a kid. I can still clearly recall the music.

I think there was an arcade version before it that was more action oriented, or so I remember...(will have to look it up later). What the hell am I thinking...it's #10 on this list! Which I looked up and it is called Pengo.

8 is an Adventure Island of sorts. Not sure which.

5 looks like an NES game. 2 I recognize but don't know the title...rememebr seeing it in a Nintendo Power from LONG ago.

1 has to be a Parodius variant....trying to find this let me find out that 12 is "Penguin Adventure." How straightforward.

Looking around more reveals that 9 is Amazing Penguin.

[macjz212]

7 is Megaman 3

[Mr Unoriginal]

I think 1 is Parodius.

[Jack]

The following answers are correct:
2. Penguin Land
6. Crusader of Centy
7. Mega Man 3
9. Amazing Penguin
10. Pengo
11. Penguin Adventure

I also added a 12th picture, which I neglected to upload the first time.

[Rodimus]

Awesome revive of the thread. I like the penguin theme.

The only one I know which hasn't been answered yet is:
#4 as Zaku

[waxHead]

8. Adventure Island II

[waxHead]

8 is an Adventure Island of sorts. Not sure which.

[Jack]

Awesome revive of the thread. I like the penguin theme.

Correct.

8. Adventure Island II

Nope.

Nope.

You might want to upload to imageshack and make random filenames, because all you have to do is right-click and hit "save as" to see the game name in the filename.

[Strell]

1) Fist of the North Star?
2) Milon's Secret Castle
3) Guardian Legend
4) Astanax
3) Leisure Suit Larry...must be the first or second one...I can figure it out without too much trouble...I'll guess #1, Land of the Lounge Lizards.

Well done sir! #5 is Land of the Lounge Lizards, LLL #1. Jeez, I guess I need to find some more obscure games as well!

[waxHead]

Wowee wow wow!


I couldn't resist putting that one in there. Ahh, the games of my childhood...

[Strell]

Ahh, LSL age protection schemes of old, where they'd ask questions that kids supposedly wouldn't know, in multiple choice format. But my friend and I defeated you, Al Lowe.

Sig is Toejam and Earl of course.

We never finished Jack's games. :/

[The Crotch]

You should re-host those things. Some of the names are in the URLs.

Though I know Daggerfall when I see it, anyway.

[mguiddy]

I cheated on the one above Daggerfall, but only because I didn't know which Dark Sun it was. :lol:

[BlueWingX]

The second one is Dungeons and Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun for the Genesis. My friend had that, and I spent hours watching him play it.

[elessar123]

Sorry if these have been posted before, but it's a lot of work to go through 121 pages =P I used to play all but one of these.

[The Crotch]

I think 3 there is One Must Fall. 4 is Terminal Velocity.

[Mr Unoriginal]

1 is the Lord of the Rings RPG for DOS. I think it was part one of 3 also.

[BlueWingX]

5 is Heretic. I loved that game! 6 is Hocus Pocus, which I remember getting out of a clearance bin... but that's about it.

[elessar123]

All those are correct so far. The LotR game is the first one. There's no third one unfortunately, since I was a big Tolkien buff in the early 90s, played through the games at least 5 times each. It's also awesome because you can carry over your stats / some equipment from the first game to the second game if you play them in order. I actually still have these in my PC collection box.

Three is One Must Fall, which I wanted back in early 90s, because I saw it in those shareware catalogs.

Four, Terminal Velocity was the same, and I actually played it a fair bit, although I liked the pink lasers the best, but couldn't find a picture of it.

Five is Heretic, which I liked more than all other 3D shooters at the time other than Doom/Doom2, but my friends never did, so it was always hard to get them to play it with me.

Six is Hocus Pocus. Interesting side scroller lol, but it's waaaaaay dated now. It ran super fast on my 486 though =P

No one knows #2 though? I actually got a copy of it recently off Goozex. Great game, but there was one major design flaw... Which I'll get into after someone guesses it =P

sorry, i'm lazy.

[Survivalism]

Isn't 5 Hexen and not Heretic?

[elessar123]

Isn't 5 Hexen and not Heretic?

Pretty sure it's Heretic. It's the same series of games, so some of the stuff's similar. It went Heretic -> Hexen -> Hexen 2 -> Heretic 2, I believe.

[dafoomie]

Each game gets two screenshots each.

Please specify if you knew it at first glance or if you had to look it up. The first one's a gimme, they get harder. One of these came out in 1997, not quite old school to me.

[chair_home]

I know the first one is Space Quest, just don't know which one. The second one looks like Police Quest, which I never played. :-/

[Strell]

OH FUCK THE LAST ONE IS SUBSPACE (NOW KNOWN AS CONTINUUM)
HELL FUCKING YEAH MAN. BEST GAME NONE OF YOU PUKES EVER PLAYED. POWERBALLZONE 4EVA

Space Quest 4? Can't be 1-3 and I doubt it's a later title.

Second one is probably a Police Quest, but I wouldn't know which one.

Fourth is Psi-5, which I had to look up, but sounds interesting.

[mguiddy]

No, it's Space Quest 1 (http://www.mobygames.com/game/dos/space-quest-i-roger-wilco-in-the-sarien-encounter/screenshots/gameShotId,29031/) (the VGA re-release though).

[BlueWingX]

Space Quest 4? Can't be 1-3 and I doubt it's a later title.

Actually, it's possible that it's the VGA remake of Space Quest 1. Didn't the first Space Quest start on a ship set to self destruct?

Edit: Ninja'd! Well played, mguiddy. Well played...

[Strell]

VGA rereleases? Blasphemy. I want my EGA 16 colors dammit.

[mguiddy]

And I think the confusion someone had about Heretic is that it's not the dos version, it appears to be a remake (http://www.noeman.org/gsm/s60-games-symbian-java/2613-new-heretic-3d-15-mb.html) for a cell phone. :/

[Mr Unoriginal]

I used to play 3 but forgot what it was called. It was a Privateer type game but more focus on trading. It was hard as hell if I remember.

[dafoomie]

Glad somebody got Subspace right away. I played on ASWZ.

You guys also got the first and fourth ones, though nobody has the 2nd one yet. Not even a sniff on #5. You're on the right track with #3, I'll give you a hint. Its the last (so far) of several sequels to a very famous space game, but its not Wing Commander.

[mguiddy]

With Mr Unoriginal's insight, 3's Elite or a sequel... Frontier, maybe, I think that's the newest one, not counting oolite.
2 makes me think of Police Quest mixed with Mean Streets... Okay, I figured it out (it was driving me crazy since I've seen that briefing screen before), but not going to say it.

[dafoomie]

#3 is Frontier: First Encounters, the sequel to Frontier: Elite II. It was Eve Online in 1995, minus the online but with actual gameplay and planets and a story and all the things Eve lacks. They were going to make an MMO in 2001 but they figured the tech wasn't there yet, then Eve came along and kind of stole their thunder.

#2 and #5 are still up in the air. New screenshots for #2:

A bit of a wild guess, but I remember there was a Law & Order point and click adventure game. Could that be #2?

[dafoomie]

Never heard of any Law and Order game, so thats not it. Its closer to Police Quest in age and style.

[ratzombie]

Is #2 Blue Force?

[dafoomie]

It is in fact Blue Force, from the creator of the first 3 Police Quest games and other former Sierra employees. Probably my favorite Police Quest style game, this game got dark and serious before Police Quest 4 did and without the plot unraveling and getting silly at the end. The scene where Jake's parents get murdered right in front of him... "Jake, hide in the closet!" And the music they played, scared the shit out of me at the time.

Anyone even want to guess on #5?

[Strell]

Did some hunting on #5 but didn't find a correct answer.

Edit: Oh snap I found it! Shadow President!

20 min of looking up "geopolitical games" and "political simulations" and so forth. Learned that there's a good number in this genre, and that they've been around for a good while.

[dafoomie]

It is Shadow President, very well done considering when it was made.

Not an obvious screenshot, but you could probably narrow down the era or system.

Neo Geo Baby, Ninja Masters normally paired with World Heros in cabinets.

[Rodimus]

Awww, I knew that one was too easy.

[tangytangerine]

Yeah, you got it. How'd you guess it was Legends 2 and not the first one?

I never played the original & owned the second game. I remember there being a snowy village in the game and the style of the text.
