Guess the game

[Ameena]

Oh dear, I don't recognise any of these...but the Rambo one made me think of this...

Rambo: First Blood Part II

That's right.

My first picture was from a very old game called

Sopwith

.

And yours, Saumun, comes from

Spoiler

Uridium

I believe - it took me some time to remember this strange name.

[Jan]

And this?

[Gambit37]

Jan's is

Spoiler

Bioforge

.

I know what Ameena's is, but only cos I had to squash it down to a smaller size - for some reason Imgur JPGs are massively increased in size and the forum was cropping most of it off!

[Gambit37]

Here's 2 more classic arcade games. I guess only Saumun will get these!?

[Jan]

Jan's is

That's right.

How can you people know all these games?

[Gambit37]

A well spent youth

[Sophia]

I recognize those.

Berzerk

and

After Burner

[Saumun]

Correct!

Don't know Ameena's.

A well spent youth

Same!
On the arcade front, as well as seaside hols there were a couple of small arcades in the town centre where i live. I suppose this is probably true of many British towns, but one in particular was a cafe that had around around fifteen cabinets and a pool table. The owner, Ian, was a keen gamer too... so he'd change the games regularly. I got to play lots of coin-ops old and new (at the time).
It's still open and i go in from time to time for breakfast or lunch (and Ian still owns it), though it only has fruit machines now.

For what it's worth, i did know

Spoiler

Berzerk

and

Spoiler

After Burner

, but came back too late.

So anyway... How about this one:

[oh_brother]

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:

[beowuuf]

You're fooling no one, that isn't a game that's just a TV capture from Match of the Day!

[oh_brother]

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

[Saumun]

Aha... That's

Spoiler

Kick Off

. Could never forget that one. Played it to death! At least until

Spoiler

Sensible Soccer

and

Spoiler

SWOS

came along.

[Gambit37]

Saumun's last one is

Spoiler

Operation Wolf

.

[Saumun]

Close, but no cigar.... Half a point! It's the sequel...

Spoiler

Operation Thunderbolt

.

[Sophia]

Well, if you want realism in the graphics, here's one a bit more modern...

[Saumun]

Absolutely no idea on that one. Guess at a

Spoiler

FIFA

game?

Spoiler

FIFA 17

? They always seem to go a year ahead.

[Ameena]

Omg WUFFY, welcome back!

Mine was

Spoiler

Broforce

, a current game (think it's technically still in development - they add a new update every now and then, anyway, with new stuff). It's basically a homage to '80's action movies where the heroes have big guns and everything blows up and it's pretty fun .

[oh_brother]

@Saumun, yes, though I thought it was

Spoiler

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

Spoiler

Sensible Soccer

later on which had great reviews and he loved, but I never really got on with it. It was fine, but didn't have the intensity of

Spoiler

Kick Off

@ Sophia - I would have had the same guess as Saumun for that. Unless there is some

Spoiler

Lionel Messi Football

game?

[Bit]

You're fooling no one, that isn't a game that's just a TV capture from Match of the Day!

That one makes my day

[Saumun]

@oh_brother... To be honest, i was taking a punt on whether it was 1 or 2. Difficult to tell from a still shot. I didn't find a huge difference in gameplay between KO2 and SWOS. I favoured SWOS for the insane level of detail given to teams and players, and of course it had the real league and cup comps.

[Ameena]

Alrighty, been replaying something recently and the thought occurred that it hasn't been mentioned thus far in this game, so here we go...

[Saumun]

No idea about that one...

How about this:

[Jan]

I wonder if anyone recognises these games:


(I've never played it but my brother used to play it quite intensively... or extensively?)


(when this game came in 1992 its graphics was absolutely stunning and revolutionary)

[Sophia]

Ameena's is

Spoiler

Spyro

, I think. I don't know about the others.

For mine, Saumun was close, but not quite. It was

Spoiler

FIFA Street

.

[Gambit37]

No idea about Ameena's dragon.

Saumun's last one is

Spoiler

Xenon

on the Amiga.

I don't know Jan's first one, but I think the second is one of the

Spoiler

Comanche

games.

[oh_brother]

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

Spoiler

Call of Duty something or other

?

New one:

[Saumun]

Gambit got mine.....

Spoiler

Xenon

!

I don't know any of the current ones.

[Gambit37]

Gambit got mine.....

Spoiler

Xenon

!

I remember the music so clearly. Plink Plink Plink Plink! Just watched some of it on Youtube. It's all coming back to me now as a very hard game! The sequel was easier and much better.

[Jan]

I don't know Jan's first one, but I think the second is one of the

Comanche

games.

That's correct. It's the first one -

Comanche: Maximum Overkill

(always liked the name )

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

Yup, it's
