I don't have much info since it's a game I never played myself but saw articles about and got really interested in. Game released sometime in 00s(?), SF setting, adventure/survival horror(?). It was about 3 survivors on some space ship/base that had most of the crew killed by some kind of virus released on board. The gimmick was that while you needed the skills of all three, each of them was infected with a different strain of the virus and if two ever met the virus would kill them both.

I need to find another old game I really wanted to play back in the day but never did: Made in the late 1980s(?). Had 3D graphics but very primitive. SF setting, you could fly around the planet and the solar system. I remember that it hand some overarching goals like stopping an asteroid from hitting an inhabited planet and rigging the presidential elections but it was very open-ended.

Looking for 2 titles: - arcade game from the 90s, with Spider-Man and 3 other characters to choose from. It changed perspective so some stages played like a classic beat'em up and some like a platform game. - DOS game, similar to Archon in that you have a main boardgame map but when pieces meet they duke it out in an action part. Instead of a pseudo-chess board, it had an actual map and you bought units, traps and other stuff (spells? items?) with points. I remember two units - an emaciated ghoul that was invisible for most of the fight and an extremely muscly red demon that barely fit into its square.

AuroMarshmallow posted:I remember playing an old shareware/freeware game, probably from one of those old 200-game CDs they'd sell at Staples or wherever, in which you were some kind of space knight venturing to "the red planet" for some reason. I vaguely remember it being an RPG with a turn based battle system, and I think it was a sequel. I think you fought with some kind of blaster. I cannot for the life of me remember the name of this game and I haven't been able to find anything resembling it on any lists of old shareware games from the late 90s/early 00s. Not sure about the knight, but Space 1889 maybe?

Looking for an RPG, on either Amiga or DOS VGA era, all I remember is that the title started with A and that it was set during an ice age. I thought it was Aarklash as it sounded similar, but that's another game altogether.

I need to find out not a title, but the exact specific source of the System Shock quote "Look at you hacker. A pathetic creature of meat and bone..." IIRC it appears in the SS2 intro, but I'm 95% sure it originally came from the first game. What I don't know and I'm looking for is where/when in the first game it's said.

Dr. Quarex posted:I think part of why System Shock 2 still holds up is because that bit of Shodan's dialogue is still terrifying 20+ years later, as we grow closer to an actual machine saying it to us It's definitely a very different experience playing it 15 years later with a different perspective. last time I definitely glossed over how SHODAN actually behaves like a newly emergent being that's experimenting with its identity with no knowledge/feeling of its own limits, and how the Many is actually way older than her.

Control Volume posted:Trying to remember a late 90s/early 00s medieval strategy and city-building game that had a janky RTS battle system with a top-down view. Im pretty sure it was a sequel of some sort, and its not Knights & Merchants or Stronghold. Lords of the Realm 2?

Arcade (as in actual coin-op) game I played in like 1993. It was a fantasy fighter where you could either play a ladder mode like Mortal Kombat or other such titles, or a 2-player match on 1 credit for both players. The battlefield was not linear, but pseudo-3D with 2 axes of freedom on a square arena. The characters were not named individuals but generic fantasy monsters like Dragon or Golem (those two are what I remember for sure).

Beartaco posted:I'm looking for a PS2 game (maybe PS1 but I don't think so) which was a top down 1 on 1 fighting game where the characters flew around firing energy beams at each other, very much like Dragon Ball Z but definitely not Dragon Ball Z. I had it on a demo disc and it seemed cool since I liked DBZ and for some reason I never thought to try any of the hundred actual DBZ games out at the time. I don't think the demo had a single player mode. You might want to look at Destrega which has a developed energy missile mechanic, and also Tobal 1/2 which had the Dragon Ball game guy as character designer. Both for PS1. e:f,b

Not sure if it had a DOS version, but it fits and certainly looks like stuff you'd find on abandonware sites.

What was that indie platformer about a gothy girl who went to an orphanage/boarding school, found a grimoire that started corrupting her and every chapter started with a scene of her trying to get rid of the grimoire in a different way?

Not one specific game, but I remember playing adventure(?) games on the Looking either for the engine/series name, or a few major titles using that style so I can prod my brain and finish the search myself. Pierzak fucked around with this message at 00:26 on Sep 10, 2022 |

wb posted:gregory loses his clock/flunky? After skimming through various collection videos on youtube I reached the conclusion that I still have no loving idea what the game was, but that I most likely played it on Commodore 64 and not Spectrum as I posted, so sorry for any confusion I caused. ed: loving HELL! Literally a minute after posting this I found the game and it was on the Spectrum. The game was Andy Capp. Pierzak fucked around with this message at 00:32 on Sep 10, 2022 |
