Also, probably some others have played it, especially in Europe? but I've never heard anyone else talk about Slicks 'n' Slide, the first game I ever sent in money to get the full version for. Found it on one of those 101 shareware games discs, and it was so awesome!
Anyone here play Major Stryker on PC?
First shmup I played. Blew my mind as a wee lad.
This was reason I bought PC to play games, crazy I know
Interesting to note that it was released on PS1 and PS2, I don't remember which one did I play.Really liked it, played it on both Game Boy Advance and PS1.
Well we only tried the first few minutes, it's just that we were expecting something else.Hey, I've bought this for the PC and liked it a lot!
I've played whatever the American version of this is called.http://s3.discshop.se/img/front_large/84293/villes_varld_3_7_ar.jpg
I seriously doubt it.
Loved the game. It may not have been very good, but the idea of your units being giant lego blocks was just really neat.
Heart of Darkness - PC/PS1 (as far as i know)
I have never met anyone who has heard of it, let alone played it. It was really fucking hard for me! I never beat it. The intro was really cool. I hope someone on GAF has played it, because then I won't feel so alone.

I used to own this when I was a kid. I agree it was very difficult and I also didn't get too far but the cover was so cool, I'd keep coming back to it.
Pretty obscure on GAF, I've never seen these games mentioned ... :
The Ring is an SF adventure game based on Wagner's Ring of the Nibelungs with artwork by French comic book artist Druillet.
Legend of Kay for the PS2.
Goemons Great Adventure for the N64.
I have (the french version). Many of those foldable travel games were great, I should have bought more of them when they were available.
I really doubt anyone has played this gem. The toy store I bought it in when I was 5 or 6 (24 years ago) just closed last year
I've played both, and I love the side-scroller.Goemons Great Adventure for the N64.
I sometimes read about Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon here, but this game? It is one of the best 2.5D Platformers out there.
Cultures 2 (PC)
I don't think I could find any game that noone else here played, but I can at least try:
SkyRoads
Played that one too. It was bad, but kind of fun when played with a friend. I think ScrewAttack or something even did an episode about it.And another game called 'Iron Man and XO Manowar in Heavy Metal'. Side scrolling action game. Not good
I've played both, and I love the side-scroller.
But I'm not sure if this one is the 2.5 side scroller? There's a great cooperative 4-player in the side scroller, and the box seems to say otherwise?
SkyRoads
Dragon Rage
I really doubt that I'd treading on any toes by saying this game was beyond awful, there was nothing redeeming about it whatsoever. It looked bad, played bad, the design was uninspiring, I could go on.
It's relatively obscure for a reason, I can't believe that I played it!
I don't think I could find any game that noone else here played, but I can at least try:

But I don't really know which older games sold well and which didn't.
You can download it from their site for free.Oh hell yes. I never could finish the second half of the worlds. Should dig it up and try it again.
Cyborg Justice had a final boss, but the developers were total dicks about it. If you played on Normal, the game would just end on the third-last level; if you played on Hard, the game would end on the second-last level; and only if you played it on the hardest difficulty would you actually get to the last level.
Cyborg Justice
I nominate this purely for the fact that I have never heard it mentioned outside of a few brief instances, and even it's been entirely contained to one corner of the internet. It had a quirky gameplay mechanic in that you could replace your own body parts with those of your enemies, which I seem to remember making everything easy. It wasn't particularly long, and I'm pretty sure it didn't have a final boss, but I still remember it fondly. Fucking nostalgia!
I remember really loving Lords of the Realm 2, only I was terrible at real-time strategy and twice as terrible at kingdom management, so I only ever managed to win one game, ever, by picking a map where there was only one road into my territory that I could camp thousands of soldiers at, and some of the most ridiculous attrition in the history of video games.It was a lame version of Civilization, but stuck in the dark ages.
My contribution: Maelstrom, an old PC strategy game so obscure that it took me about three tries to actually Google it.
I could barely make sense of it and I'd almost always die about half an hour in, but in the time it took me to die I remember doing some pretty awesome stuff by mining my planet and researching weapons that really should have been considered war crimes.
You are a treasure hunter. Your goal is to collect a tresure and get back to the village. You need to find a key to open the gate to reach the treasure. You have to carry the treasure home. You also have to fight squid/spider like monsters you see on the second screen. You could even starve to death and ask for directions. That is a fun (and if you crack up the difficulty insanely hard) game.
Firestorm: Thunderhawk 2

here's the intro
An awful awful game, like a 3d Pacman, that has actually gotten and iOS port. If anyone out there has played this we can shed a tear together.
