Name that Game

[Lonemagpie]

Dunno, one of the Bomberman games?

 

[Reverend]

Yeah, drawing a blank here I'm afraid. I've only ever played sudoko on the DS.

 

[Robert Maxwell]

You guys suck.

It's a "puzzle shooter" and it's also a sequel. It was developed by the same company that made Radiant Silvergun.

 

[Brandonv]

Is it Bangai-O Spirits?

 

[Rett Mikhal]

Please, say it is.

 

[Timby]

Is it Bangai-O Spirits?

With a name like that, no wonder I never played it.

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Is it Bangai-O Spirits?

You got it! Sorry, I didn't think this one was that hard. Good job!

 

[Brandonv]

This one is a game I remember my Dad playing on his Commodore 64 when I was really young. I can also remember trying unsuccessfully to play the game myself (possibly one of my oldest memories). I had forgotten about the game until I rediscovered it by chance in a Youtube video.

choplifter?

 

[Timby]

Choplifter was never top-down, as I recall, but rather side-scrolling.

I have no clue on this one, but it looks like an 8-bit Desert Strike or something along those lines.

 

[Fencer]

Raid on Bungeling Bay

 

[Reverend]

^Oh dear, we appear to have another stumper...

 

[Robert Maxwell]

I remember seeing that game in Computer Shopper back in the mid-90s, I think, but for the life of me I don't remember what it's called.

ETA: Figured it out! It's Terra Nova.

Next up:

Elite?

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Elite Plus, but close enough. I'm glad someone got that quickly, otherwise I'd have been very disappointed in you guys.

 

[BigFoot]

^ I knew it was one of the Elite games, I just didn't know which one.

 

[Reverend]

^ Fade to Black. A very disappointing sequel to Flashback--my favourite game on the old Mega Drive!

 

[Itisnotlogical]

It's been a while since I've been to this thread...

Carmageddon on the N64?

 

[BigFoot]

^ Yeah I was thinking it could be Carmageddon. But I only played the PC version and that doesn't quite look like it.
