    We haven't done one of these in a while. Post up a screen grab or portion of a screen grab and see if people can guess the game.

    No correct answer so far. Of anyone wants to stick up another one while people are guessing this one then feel free.

    Is it Vatican Conclave: Cage Fight Edition?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,498 Mod ✭✭✭✭Andrew76


    It's Body Blows on the Amiga, recognise it anywhere. It was also the cause of a foot sized hole in my bedroom wall when I was a teenager. :pac:

    Here's another to ponder:

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,429 ✭✭✭Kenjataimu


    Rampage?

    EDIT: Actually I'm wrong, didn't they have proper names rather than just "gorilla".


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Nope.

    Also I've cropped half the screen out as the other half would give it away.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,886 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Is the second game psychonauts?

    Nope. I'd recommend looking at the 2 characters in the bottom left hand corner for a clue to the core game mechanic.

    Feck I know it now, can't think of the name.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,886 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Yep!


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,886 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Is the last one Skies of Arcadia? Looks like a Dreamcast game anyway.

    Not sure what A is but looks like a really good game, definitely NES.

    B is Turrican, pretty sure the first one.

    C I'm guessing is Broken Sword.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,886 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Actually, is A Mighty Final Fight?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Right on all counts... Although it's Turrican 2... it's a completely different Turrican!

    I got what G is however I'll have to be careful whether it's Loderunner 64 or 3D. I'm going with 3D :)


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 3,184 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dr Bob

    Clue: Probably mostly remembered as an Amiga title. Great music and a quintessentially 90s main character.

    That Gorilla looks fresh out off...The Amazing Spider-Man and Captain America in Doctor Doom's Revenge!

    Edit: The box was nice but the game was utter pants.

    Yep. I like the bit where you have a one on one battle with a hole in the ground.

    2. Pandemonium?

    3. MDK 2?

    4. Is definitely Outcast. No other game has that voxel look :)

    D is... Jim Power in - Mutant Planet? Pretty certain..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    Well done guys. Think that's all of them for now.
