A game no one seems to remember. O_O

Hot Wheels for the PS1. I remember it cause it had Fuel by Metallica.

Also Croc for the PS1 as well.

My choice is Warlords Battlecry 2. It's an old skool hero-based fantasy RTS and there seems to be very few who've heard of it and even less who've played it. Admittedly it's not the best game out there, nor is it the most original but to kill time and conquer a fantasy realm it's pretty all good and I often find myself returning to it over and over again even though I'm not a massive RTS fan.

Thank god someone else then me remember this game. One of my all-time favourites, can't explain HOW MANY times I've played through it. Favourite races are Fey, Undead and Dark elves.

- snip -

Yeah I know the feeling, I wouldn't want to count the times I've completed it - it's easily the game I've completed most, I just find it easy to pick up and play. Though my choice in races differs. I never got the hang of playing Fey - I found that you needed heaps and heaps of different unit types to compete, and the sheer volumes of crystal that those guys can (and need to) consume is just phenomenal. As for Undead (apart from when you first start a battle) I loved them - though I actually just loved having an Undead Death Knight. But yeah, Dark Elves, Dark Dwarves, Barbarian (but only after turning off the hero's voice), and Undead are always my choice.

I loved the hero lvling up bonuses in WBC2, but WBC3 was soooo much better gameplay wise + had more races. Imo if WBC3 took the world conquering campaign element + the special spec bonuses - example if u choose a warrior and went with that fighter thing u had a bonus that gave u more combat and such it would have been the perfect rts+rpg mix.

I never played the first or third WBC's and as such have no basis for comparison, but I did really enjoy the bonuses to be had when you chose a class etc. And as I said in the first post the game could be better and I was referring in part to the gameplay - though not, I must admit to races - what new ones were included? And also what made the gameplay in the third so much better? How was it improved?

Gauntlet. Last one I remember was dark legacy on the PS2 and it was pretty good. They should bring out another console one soon. Like, now.

man i played the hell out of that game!!!
all i remember was that after a while you could unlock a minotaur and at level 50 his axe became bigger than him. it was so awesome!!!

OP: my favorite game ever is also one of the forgotten.

mystical ninja starring Goemon was probably one of the absolute best adventure games. EVER.

 

[teh_Canape]

fucking Jazz JackRabbit 2

the first one is a classic, most people knows it, but it seems everyone forgot there's a sequel

and that it actually improves over the original game

Ok I got a curve ball for you this time. Its a game my friend bought me for the PS2 when he was in the middle east. its name is: Onimush Dawn of Dreams. Anyone heard of it?

Yeah... I've played that! My brother had a few of the Onimusha games...

AW! Bob Sagit! I thought Id get it for sure lol.

Hot Wheels for the PS1. I remember it cause it had Fuel by Metallica.

Also Croc for the PS1 as well.

Its funny how alot of people say no one remembers Croc. Ironic I know.

Rise of Nations. Such an underated RTS. It might even be my allt ime favorite game. But no one else cares.

I still have the Gold Edition (which inc. Thrones & Patriots) laying around somewhere.
I should dig it out.

I used to have Star Trek Armada. Still have a copy of Armada 2. If you can get hold of it, download the fleetops mod. You won't regret it.

Why? What does that do?

EDIT: Oops, forgot to add my own. I've got an old one for you, Castle Adventure. Old ASCII based graphics.

It's a mod for the game. Brings it up to more modern standards. The fleetops team have been working on it for years.

Some of my favourite games are games people have either never heard of or forgot about.

Spoiler: Uncharted Waters 2!

Am I looking forward to the Uncharted Waters MMO that is going into beta tomorrow? You bet your (presumably) sweet ass I am!

Spoiler: Beatdown: Fists of Vengeance!

Love this game, cant understand why people didnt like it. Raven (the main guy) is easily one of my favourite characters ever... everyting he said was just awesome!

Spoiler: Loaded!

I would be VERY surprised if anyone has played this game.

I owned ReLoaded. The Developers were based in my hometown.

 

[Blemontea]

Mystic Quest: Legend
Old RPG for the Snes.

Rise of Nations. Such an underated RTS. It might even be my allt ime favorite game. But no one else cares.

Yes this was a fun RTS, for minerals you built a building next to it and depending on the size of the forest or cliff etc the more people you can have collecting from that resource.

As far as I an remember there was a song in the credits that went something like "rise of nations, rise of nations, they just keep rising" etc

 

[Meestor Pickle]

A game I used to love was Dungeon Siege if anyone recalls it

 

[Jfswift]

mortal kombat mythologies: sub zero


such an awesome side scroller

That was a pretty cool game actually. Funny story to go with that. I was visiting a friend one day, years ago when it came out and he was like here, try this, I bet you'll die in five seconds. Of course I thought he was joking at the time, until a pillar slammed out of the freaking celing and crushed me into the ground..

Cool game though

I don't think it's that no one remembers it, but no one seems to talk about it.

Parasite Eve.

It had a big company, a sequel, a cool mix of Silent Hill type creepiness and action RPG goodness and it was well received by critics. Yet I hear people go on and on about Legend of Dragoon and other RPGs of that era, but no one ever gives Parasite Eve the love it deserves...

I, for one, remember it vividly. When I was a very young child, my mother was forever working the night shift, and my father worked away from home, so we'd often board at other's houses. During one such occurrence, my younger brother and I realized that one of the people we were living with, a college student, had an affinity for gaming. We watched him play Final Fantasy, and Resident Evil, and such...and then he played Parasite Eve...in front of us...when I was 5. Needless to say, I don't think I'd ever had such trouble sleeping during my early childhood. However, I remembered the game for years after, and once I found out what it was called, decided to look into it. A decent investment, too.

OT: I know it's already been mentioned, but Zone of the Enders. I spent a lot of time playing that game, and then mentioned it to a few friends, and they'd never even heard of the thing.

I once spent a slow Hallow's Eve playing that game with a few friends. Don't ask why, as far as I can remember, we weren't of sound mind at the time.

Ah, my apologies, double post.

 

[Scarecrow]

Legacy of kain: Soul Reaver.

[NeroOmega]

I didn't have time to weed through the 420 posts at the time of this post.. But I did skim the first and current page and didn't see my game, so here's hoping. (Hehe.. 420....)


Quest For Glory, and game in that series. I'm always hearing people talk about King's Quest and Space Quest but hell, why not the truly awesome moments in Sierra's prime?!
