Name that Game

[Yoda]

Street Fighter Alpha IV is right. No wait... maybe the other guy had it. Well one of you certainly did, work it out amongst yourselves

 

[Skywalker]

I vote for the other guy. I feel bad for him getting it wrong, so I'm gonna be the bigger man and let him put up the next screenshot.

 

[Fencer]

 

[Kelthaz]

Never played it, so random guess.

Lost Planet?

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Aw man, I missed fucking Karateka? Love that game!

 

[Fencer]

Not lost planet.

 

[Aldo]

Is it Halo: ODST?

 

[Kelthaz]

Star Wars: Battlefront?

 

[Fencer]

Neither.

It's a sequel, download only and a new mode was unlocked a few days ago.

 

[Yoda]

Section 8: Prejudice?

 

[Fencer]

Yes.

 

[Yoda]

 

[SunFusion Solar]

what name of this game?

 

[Yoda]

It's a game that teaches you about affordable, clean, renewable solar energy. The later levels deal with government incentives that make these miraculous solar panels even more affordable.

If you beat the game it gives you a secret web address where you can learn more...

 

[Yoda]

Hmm, I seem to have killed the thread. Then again I was the only kid on the block with TurboGrafx.

 

[Kelthaz]

TG-16 shmup, huh? I've played a few on the system, but I don't remember this one. Although the enemy looks very familiar.

 

[Yoda]

It wasn't even really an enemy... more of a glorified piñata filled with power-ups.

 

[Aldo]

It's been about a week now, I'm tempted to get this thing going again by posting a picture. But I'm really curious what game you posted Yoda.

 

[Yoda]

I'm surprised nobody got this, after all Deep Blue went pretty quick. Oh well.

I never made it past the level two boss as a kid I don't think. I liked the music (especially level 2), and the animation where you die (which probably doesn't even occur in the long play above), where your ship catches on fire, lifts up slightly, then falls down off the screen. Seemed more dramatic than the average shooter death.

Aldo, by all means post something so I can move on from the pain of seeing Aero Blasters so unloved.

 

[Kelthaz]

Is two weeks of pain enough, Aldo?
