It sounds more like SkyRoads to me.

Dell_Zincht posted:Prop Cycle. Thank you for answering my own "games you barely remember" question that I had not even asked because it would have been too dumb: "does anyone remember an arcade game where there was a character named like 'Zizzi' and a really annoying character talked to him in a cutscene?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWyBVh62O-g&t=94s (misheard by a friend in our loud arcade as "Zizy! I'm pregnant!" which needless to say got repeated about a thousand times as an inside joke)

BlueHeron is clearly also Brilltoid.

Do you dig holes like Lode Runner? I just saw a game that immediately reminded me of Lode Runner in some retro computer video I watched the other day and I would go looking if so.

I bought Dark Legions immediately upon playing it two-player at my buddy's house, because the concept was fantastic, but it definitely needed the "fog of war" of modem play to really work (hard to surprise someone with traps when you could just watch them being placed). I never played it again. Truly the greatest gaming tragedy of all time

What in the world, I would have been all about this game back in the day, and it is just one of at least three games in the same style according to MobyGames. Is this as obscure as it seems to me, or did I just somehow miss this corner of the shareware market in 1992?

Why does the ending screen hype up Ultima 3-D and 4 [sic] -P?

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

Wow, there was a home port of that insanely rare laserdisc game "Freedom Fighters," and it even played a little differently, considering "nice kid like you oughta be at a ball game!" never occurred in that opening scene, which was the most memorable part of the intro level for me.

Hahahah, Mutant Fighter. The sparse and awkward snippets of character taunts from that game became catchphrases for my friend group. Some of them lingered for years. I bet it was a solid decade until all of us stopped saying FEEL THE AUTHORITY OF MY HORNS! for good Also thank you for that nostalgia as Mutant Fighter was the only fighting game I was ever good enough at to be fairly confident I would beat most anyone playing me, likely both because it was not popular enough to attract many adherents and my own delight in the awfulness of its voice acting kept me playing far more than made any sense Edit: Hahaha went and watched a collection of the super moves and I STILL think "YOU ARE A BUG TO ME!" sometimes and had long since forgotten where the hell that quote even came from.

Pyroclastic posted:The art and animation in the intro to this game and its music seem incredibly familiar to me, but I'm sure I've never played Zone 66 or even heard of it before. I can't get any other impressions of what game it might have been, just that it had a similar sequence, particularly the bit where the hero is running with a side view of his face.

I remember feeling like that warning was crafted just for me and my friends after we played the first game multiplayer at a LAN party for a few days straight and generated the timeless exchange "We should probably think about getting food sometime soon." "We have to eat in this game?" "I mean in real life."

For about 5 minutes that would feel like the most fun game ever
