Every day.
He's a winner for having Samba imo.
Oh, Jesus, shut the fuck up.
<3 No <3

Back on Topic:
Technocop?
Nope. That was developed in Canada, actually :)
oh well.
At least it was out of the country. :)
Hmmm ....
Killzone?
Shellshock: Nam '67?
Blazing Angels?
It isn't an FPS.
Blazing Angels was developed in Romania, BTW.
Xyanide?
You got it.
This isn't really a vague description, it's actually very specific description of a game that almost no one knows.Quote:

Not, "Oh, I never heard of that game". I think the ones that Grave did are some of the best examples.
There's no reason we can't have both well known and obscure games. I didn't know about Countdown to Shutdown before and now I'm going to check it out.
But as I said, for example there's actually nothing Vague at all about saying a Dutch Shooter... there's what? Maybe 2 or 3 of those at most if even? It's a very very specific description actually.
Oh, let the old guys have their fun. :p
I dunno. I think I was pretty vague, considering Killzone and Shellshock both fit until I clarified :P
I'll give this a shot...
Deckar & Bob to the rescue.
Xyanide is fairly well known though. I just didn't know it was dutch.Quote:

JACKAL. :)Quote:

Ok, a Playstation 1 game in which you must save your dog.
Are we talking about Jackal for the NES? There needs to be an XBLA update for that game, with online co-op.Quote:

Dammit, I can almost picture the game Neo is naming in my mind... I know it but can't name it... it's driving me crazy.

You play as a flying, robotic insect, and it's not a shooter and it's not Mr Mosquito.
Bad Mojo?
but I was going to guess Mr Mosquito...
lol Vortex.
Nope. Don't think that was a robot was it?
Good point.
Hm, Pinobee?
ooo I think he may have it there
Buck Bumble?
yupQuote:

Pop'n'Music?
Far older.
Shit I have no clue.
Guessing Extase, since it's old, might be considered a music game by some, and I initially heard about it from bVork, I think.
so basically it's a shot in the dark.
Nope. Older than that.
wtf music games were older than that? I can think of some dancing games and Melody Chase, but none of those fit the bill.
Final hint: it's for C64.
I'm going to bed. I'll post the answer in the morning if nobody gets it.
And ze answer is To Be On Top, by Chris Huelsbeck.
A little simpler:
In this game, a flightless bird is the only means of flying.
Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time?Quote:

Hints:
-It's the Westernized version of a game that was based on a very popular anime/manga.
-One of Yuji Naka's earliest projects.
Alex Kidd in High-Tech World?
Nope, nevermind.
It's gotta be Black Belt.
Give the man a cigar.
A winner is me.
The man train is a boss in this game.
That must be a Cho Aniki game.
Ai Cho Aniki, but that's close enough.

It's a sort of musical RPG, but not quite like Rhapsody.
Eternal Sonata?
Loom?

A peripheral next to nobody had was optional.
Rez
Ephemeral Fantasia.
that game was so horrid. Fits the description though.
Yes. And yes, it was horrid. :DQuote:

Yep. I figured that was an easy one. :lol:
Please, it won't truly be mainstream until SNK finally makes a HNG64 collection. Do it, jerks. :(
Let's see how this next one works:
If this game was ported to 360, I don't think many people would tempt fate by playing it.
Ring of Red.
That's an awesome one assuming that was the answer. :lol:
Compass got it again!
I like Grave's outside-the-box style. Unfortunately my next one here isn't anywhere near as elegant:
The latest home port of this arcade series is noteworthy in that it was the first to ever ask for simultaneous input from all gameplay buttons.
Beatmania?
Close enough. beatmaniaIIDX to be more specific. DistorteD was the first one with a chart that asked for all seven keys and the TT to be hit at the same time.
That's kinda scary. I wonder if there are any DDR songs that make you do that too.
edit: or pop'n music yeesh
"Buy! Sell! Trade! Make Money!"
Is... is eBay a game?
Hmmmmm... no, doesn't have "overpriced shipping" or "ultra rare" default description.
Gotcha. I guess I will l@@k again.
Grave gives clues like Gollum from The Hobbit.
Elite? Uncharted Waters?Quote:
