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

Crystal Castles!
Man I played a lot of that, but I was pretty bad at it. Getting the warp in the back corner on level 3 was a good break though :-)

Yup... Only played it a handful of times myself (and was useless at it).

More arcade nostalgia:

Yep, Money is right about mine - good guesses, everyone else :D.

Okay, how about this one? This is about the only screenshot I can find for this game that doesn't make it immediately obvious to anyone already familiar with it ;).

Edit - Oops, forgot the thread had gone over to another page when I posted this reply...wow, lots of posts since I was on here yesterday :O. But I don't recognise any of the latest pics anyway, lol.

Sauman's last arcade one I think is Side Arms. I played loads of that back in the day. Lots of shooty goodness. :-)

You're right with the series, but it is from no. VI, not IV (which still had the old CGA/EGA graphics).

Now clue about anyone - but again pleasured by Ameena's taste for beautiful graphics.

Here's a still missing classic, probably not too hard to guess:

I think that Saumun and Gambit must share a brain given the way they get each other's games so quickly!

Bit - that is
Spoiler
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 to use that later).

btw: Jan, did you know that there is a crash-car-mod made with the quake-engine? I was pretty surprised when sawing that one! You may search for Q3 rally

Don't know Ameena's.

The character in Jan's is

Cool Spot 2
maybe?

More or less. It's called

Right, Mr. Clever, could you give us a list of games that you don't know, so that our job of catching you off-guard would be easier? :)

Ooops, then the 1st one slipped somehow through for me :roll:
Still have no idea about yours, but at least those hands are really 'disneyish'. Curious how it turns out.

Don't know Jan's new one. There is a swastika (that appears to be back to front) on the character at the top, but i'm struggling to think of a game as old as that featuring nazis.

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.
