Name That Game
« on: January 14, 2002, 10:54:37 AM »
I got this idea from the thread about that old arcade racing game.

Rules are simple...

1) Game must be released in at least 2 continents.

2) Game can be for any console, arcade, or PC.

3) Try to provide the developer and/or publisher.

Just describe any game from memory without giving too much away. Whoever answers the previous one right can describe a new game.

Some old game for the NES in which you drove a jeep. It was 2 players. The jeep could shoot a machine gun and toss grenades. You could also fire missiles. After every level, there would be a cinema. Sometimes it was a shot of the jeep and the riders yelling "YEAH!!!" or the riders studying a map and asking "Here?".

I can\'t remember the name of this game. I think it was Konami or Ultra that made it. Could be wrong.
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

here is another one:

made by Taito for the arcade/SMS. You go around with an axe /sword/etc. killing things trying to save a King\'s daughter. When you die with no continues, it almost sounds like the end of Pearl Jam\'s Jeremy.

Name it!

Warrior Blade/Rastan.  Too easy.

The only real competition for DOOM until DukeNukem3D was released. Introduced vertical aim into the FPS genre. Developed by Apogee, it\'s excessive gore went unnoticed by the media while other games like MK was targeted. A good rocket blast would send eyeballs and other severed body parts flying into your blood drenched screen.

Name it. Or try this bit harder question...

Still one of the PC\'s best fighting games, this mech fighter by Epic MegaGames had an almost RPG like upgrade system. The most well rounded and popular model of mech, was the Jaguar.



Hint: Both games are for the PC.

Game for Genesis in which you control a young treasure hunter that is accompanied by a fairy.

Hint 1. You use EkeEke to heal

Hint 2. You used "Trees" to warp

Hint 3. Sometimes you fought bubbles.

Landstalker. :D


Here\'s an easy one: It\'s a PC game in which you play the role of a young starship captain. The game was made by accolade.

Hint 1. The first game was released on the PC, then later on the Genesis.

Hint 2. It\'s the second game in the series.

Hint 3. Sa-Matra ;)
