al-azad posted:This one was a demo I played in the mid-aughts. I recall downloading the demo alongside Temple of Elemental Evil demo. It was an isometric RPG with a graphical style very similar to Pillars of Eternity in that the levels are detailed pre-rendered scenes and the characters are 3D models. I only recall one character, a woman with fiery red hair. The only plot beats I recall is that you're at an abandoned castle with a wizard who tells you about the power to shift between realities so the gameplay involved phasing between the real world and spirit world but I don't recall anything else. Did a bit of digging and pretty sure this is Heretic Kingdoms: The Inquisition

Yep to both! I'm hoping Maximum Action gets a good discount in an hour.

That's it thanks! Looks like the demo I played and the final game was quite different though. The strat game was more violent than kingdom under fire (the green guys got both their legs chopped off sometimes and I don't think the bodies disappeared) and there weren't any little buildings that you attacked it was more like myth where buildings were part of the map and bigger (the demo had a level where you had to protect a castle and you could move around in it) You didn't make units either you just started with some. Edit it was Black moon Chronicles https://www.mobygames.com/game/black-moon-chronicles Flannelette fucked around with this message at 04:54 on Dec 21, 2018 |

HELP ME THREAD! It's a PS2 brawler where your weapon was just a cylinder that would project energy into the shape of all sorts of different weapons. The story was kinda anime (your dead girlfriend's soul was in the weapon for some reason) but it wasn't an anime game. Every time I search for it I just get back The Brawler or Oni. Two fun games but not what I'm looking for.

Original xbox. Mech or vehicle combat game with more pod like or spherical machines, believe they had wheels on legs, so they rolled around but could also do things like side step and jump. Similar to armored core in how you could customize equipment in load outs.

This one is a long shot. Old puzzle/maze game that looked kind of like that Windows maze screen saver, with a general castle theme. The castle had bats in it that I think would pick you up and drop you somewhere else so you would get turned around, but you could throw them fruit to distract them and get by. There was a level creator that I would use to make a big room full of bats so I could "feed" them all fruit.  (I was a weird kid.)

Pablo Nergigante posted:iRacing? Probably, though there aren't a ton of don't-give-a-poo poo players in iRacing because it's a subscription service (in part to discourage people who don't give a poo poo from registering, kinda like the tenbux barrier here). I set my dad up with an account a couple years ago and we occasionally participate in the same race . It's worth checking out if you're sick of people in other games ramming you off a corner in a manner that would probably result in a DQ in real life. That said, there's no shortage of people who suck getting mad at other people for something that you could easily blame both parties for, especially in the rookie series. The voice chat rage can be entertaining. Shine fucked around with this message at 22:40 on Dec 30, 2018 |

So I was over in the XCOM thread and this exchange occurred:jng2058 posted:I'm aware it's fairly unlikely, but having won X-Com, XCOM, and XCOM2, what I've always wanted from the series was some kind of "kicked 'em off Earth, now let's hunt the fuckers down" game where humanity (with XCOM as the tip of the spear) heads out into space to chase down the Ethereals. Gimme some 4X, with tactical space combat, especially focused on boarding actions and raids on Ethereal held worlds. Let me see what the Ethereals are running from, gimme new aliens, some friendly, some neutral, some shootable. Vengarr posted:I remember a game like this. It was an indie thing where the tutorial mission was announcing your presence to the world by destroying an alien advance fleet. Afterwards, you would set up a Council of Funding Nations and step into space. There were admirals and firing arcs and all kinds of jazz. Anybody know what game Vengarr is referring to?

I might be getting this mixed up with Apogee's "Monster Bash," but was there a game that looked quite similar to that (early 90s DOS game, EGA graphics) where you played as a baby?

The game I’m trying to remember was a Command and Conquer clone from the early or mid 90’s. It had two factions, a modern(for the time) military and alien invaders. The alien faction hand an Area 51 grey alien vibe.

It was a NES game and it wasn't exported to the US until the Virtual Console era, but Bio Miracle Bokutte Upa makes very good use of the NES's graphics and it compares well with EGA-level stuff.

That looks really delightful, actually, but I'm starting to think I just thought the kid in Monster Bash was younger, for whatever reason. Thanks though!

Trying to remember a multiplayer game, I think it was published by Sony through their Station service. It was dark, cheesy cyberpunk themed. I remember the gameplay involved being team based, and a big part of it was hacking computers (which was just going up to them and holding a button). It would've been around the same time as Tanarus, but it's not on the list of games from Sony Online Entertainment on Wikipedia.

I don't know about the gameplay, but one game released by them around that time is Infantry Online - could that have been it?

A few months back I visited a friend in the hospital and there was an XBox One in the room. A handful of games were pre-installed and I'm trying to find one of them. The game was 2-d, side scrolling. You controlled a character navigating a dungeon with puzzles. At one point your one character split into two, and you controlled both of them at the same time, opt and bottom of the screen. I think one was purple and the other green? As you progressed through the levels, you were given a score and a perfect score gave you a golden insignia. The levels climbed up a tree, I think. The game had a hippy/new-age vibe to it. My friend thinks the game started with a Z but I went through a list of games and didn't recognize it. Thanks in advance.

That reminds me, I've forgotten the name of a game from a few years ago (around 2013) that's a sidescrolling platformer puzzle game. You can endlessly clone yourself to solve puzzles, sometimes having to do dark things like kill your clones and climb on their bodies or pile them up on a weighted platform. The graphics were dark and I think hand made objects so it had a stop motion look to it. Had a simple impossible to google name like The Desecrator or something. Very well reviewed for the time but kind of forgotten.
