Discount Viscount posted:The second is a side-scrolling beat-em up or martial arts action game where the guy wore a purple or blue gi. He was super-deformed style and so were the enemies, I think. I remember very little about this except that the boxart for Mighty Final Fight for the NES sort of reminds me of it. He kind of looked like Guy.

In this house there were bookcases and sometimes you could press space and they'd reveal a secret passage. Sounds like Nitemare 3D: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wjmAPbxC-iE

You could also land on planets and drive around in a tank like thing. I remember one planet reminded me of Hoth. Sounds like Starflight. I'm pretty sure the first planet you can get to is a snow planet. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starflight

Dr_Amazing posted:This was a Super Nintendo game. Fantasy RPG, but it played more like D&D style rules that final fantasy and was complicated enough that I didn't really figure it out during the rental period. It had an interface similar to those old dungeon hack PC games. You had (created?) 4 characters and you had their portraits and inventories on the side of the screen, with the rest being a first person perspective of the dungeon. Might be Wizardry 5: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wizardry_V

I can't remember if it was first person or third but I'm leaning on first considering the crappy CGA graphics (I remember lots of blues and reds) and it's a DOS game that I owned on my Windows 3.1 computer. If you drove over the speed limit too long you would be ticketed by invisible police? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamborghini_American_Challenge ?

Syjefroi posted:2. I played this game probably on Sega Genesis, though it's possible I played it on NES. You mostly skateboard I think. The levels took place in a jungle type of area, maybe it was actually called under the canopy. The levels, I think, we're mostly vertical but with a good amount of horizontal travel. There may have been shortcuts. You may have been able to change your mode of travel to a raft or surf board periodically. This one has been bugging me for years and Google has been absolutely no help. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greendog:_The_Beached_Surfer_Dude! ?

Funny how specific games that get no praise today are remembered so fondly from people's childhood. Return Fire made it into EGM's "100 Best games of All Time" in issue #100*, and I think that's the only time I've ever heard it mentioned outside of this thread *Before they wussed out and made their #200 list  for their time so they wouldn't have to make any choices that might piss off bitter nerds.

Halman posted:This is gonna be a long shot because I really don't remember much about the game. It would have been around 91, I think. Sort of a side scrolling platformer/beat-em-up, and from what I remember the gimmick was that you were kind of a scrawny kid but had the ability to tansform into this beefy dude who I think had a lion's head or was wearing a lion skin or something. The transform was tied to a meter that would tick down. And I want to say everything had a kind of greco-roman theme to it but honestly have no clue.

Mordja posted:Got another game I remember but never actually played. Japanese, top-down SHMUP, early to mid 2000s, saw the review on X-Play. The two things I remember are that the enemies were super weird, like, giant babyheads or something, and that one playable character could turn into a werewolf and pinball around the screen. It might have been part of a series, maybe. The werewolf guy is Hyuga from Castle Shikigami 2. I can't find any gameplay footage of him specifically, but this is better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1oqFliwrPs
