Don't know Saumun's.

How about this:

That name sounds familiar too. I must have seen it in some magazine.* And yes, mine was

Tekken 2

.

*(After a bit of digging I see that I did indeed have the issue of ST Format that reviewed that game - funny the things you remember!).

No - similar style game, but a different franchise.

@Saumun - exactly, you're on fire! It was the fantastic Jimmy White's Whirlwind Snooker . I never played Gambit's. Ameena's looks vaguely familiar, but that could be because I am mixing it up with something like Fire & Ice. I just realised that all of my games have been Atari/Amiga or PC. Time t...

No, but I never will be able to see anything else from now on.

@ Saumun - yeah, that was Midwinter . The playing area is a circle in that shot because you are using a rifle. It is google-shaped when you are skiing. It really was a fantastic game, with a huge world to explore (and you could ski, drive, hang glide or cable-car pretty much anywhere). Also you coul...

Something about

zombies and Jamaicans

it seems. Not

Plants vs. Zombies

? Or something similar?


A second screen from my game:

Jan's first looks like one of those modern FPS games.

Spoiler

Call of Duty something or other

?

New one:

@Saumun, yes, though I thought it was Kick Off 2 . At least that is what I intended, unless the first game looks exactly the same (I never played it). But I also played it to death. My brother and I sat for hours and hours when we got that game first, incredible fun. He got Sensible Soccer later on ...

No, it is just the almost-lifelike Atari ST graphics that are fooling you! Genuine game.

I don't know what Ameena's is. Is it too obvious to say

Spoiler

Rambo

?

And again, no idea of the arcade ones.

New one:

Welcome back Beo! (and another Happy Birthday, just to keep my post on topic!).

I have never played any of those games. Nothing against them, just they are unlikely to be my cup of tea. I like narrative in my games, I never go into puzzle games really. Well,I went through a phase of playing Tetris which I have to admit was fun, even though I used to see the block when I tried t...

No idea of that one either. Clearly my knowledge of arcade-style games is lacking.

How about this

I never really used Apple (except an iPad) so I can't really advise. But if, as you say, you already have a primary machine and will be using this for relatively minor tasks like typing or basic webdesign then I doubt that the OS will be that much of a problem.

Happy birthday Beo! Gone but not forgotten!

Boyflea too - have a great birthday.

They do have a fondness for strikes, it must be said.

Yes, that is

I would be surprised if France purposefully allowed delays to build up just out of anger. Maybe if problems arise they won't rush to fix them as quickly as they would have in previous times, but I can't see them creating problems.

Easy, peasy. That's Knightmare . Bang on. I don't know Gambit's or Saumun's. Saumun's looks a similar style to Double Dragon (maybe slightly better graphics), but that is not it. Here's one. I know some people on this forum have played it, but I don't know if anyone posting in this thread has: http...

I recognised

Flashback

and

Bomb Jack

, but that was it.

I think there are no open ones left? Here is something new:

Ha! Wild guesses FTW!

I knew Ameena's from the second picture, but I don't know the others. Saumun's looks like an RTS game set in space. I can't think of any of them.

No idea of Jan's.

Spoiler

Wolfenstein 2D

?

Yes, very happy birthday Saumun! Have a good one!

I think that Saumun and Gambit must share a brain given the way they get each other's games so quickly! Bit - that is Magic Carpet . Quite a good game. As for Jan's, Saumum's and Ameena's...I don't know. Saumun's looks vaguely like a game I know, but not quite (and I won't guess, because I planned t...

Haha - yes, virtually indistinguishable!

Oh_Brother's is the Wizard of Wor! Yes, I was wondering if anyone else would recognise it! And Saumun was right with the Atari 2600. I recognised Jan's (thankfully never played it) but I don't know Saumun's or Ameena's. Saumun's looks like an beat-em up from maybe the C64 era. As Jan says Ameena's ...

I think Ameena's is the only one not guessed so far. It looks like a Nintendo game, but in any case I don't recognise it. I almost posted the exact same screen shot of Body Blows I posted a few months ago, I must be getting forgetful. Anyway, here's one from the pre-ST/Amiga age https://i.ytimg.com/...

I think Gambit's is Ghosts n Goblins . Only played it a few times. And damn it, I was about to say Bubble Bobble for money's, but then had doubts. I don't know Ameena's or either of money's new ones. I am going to guess Midwinter for the second one though - I don't think it is right but I don't want...

@Ameena - I'll give it a shot. I looked at some videos and it seemed decent. And graphics not bad considering that it is a few years old at this stage.
