I'm gonna start a thread where we help each other find games we encountered way back when but can't remember their name because I'm bored.

1. Post a description of the game to the best of your memory. MS Paint picture welcome.
2. Help other anons find their game.
3. Recommend other games to anons while you wait.

The game I've been trying to find is from around the mid 90's I think and has a large purple alien on the cover art.

The opening cinematic is the player getting inside some type of capsule/pod that's sitting in the middle of a science lab (tesla coils and blinking lights kind of look). You either time travel or get transported to another planet; the first level is a type of jungle with a village.

There are tons of spike fruits laying around everywhere and it the game controls like Diable/Fallout, etc; with a grid inventory on the main screen.

Two games I can't remember:

First one is a game where you have to survive in an alien world, and all the aliens speak a language that you can't understand. Someone suggested Captain Blood in previous threads but I faintly remember you owning a car with wheels in the game, rather than a spaceship. Also you had to buy parts from the aliens for your car.

Second one is a top-down action/horror game, can't seriously remember whether it had horror or not. The setting was an arctic village/base, maybe in Alaska or Antarctica? Gameplay was basically comparable to Hotline Miami, kind of.

Looking for a DOS(?) Action Platformer. You play as a walking reptile and blow shit up with weapons. Enemies would burst into meat, blood and bones if killed.

There's this "so many great untranslated retro games, sigh" idea being thrown around so often, but what are they?

I mean, not some niche games aimed at a small group of fans but actually great games that would have been generally considered such had they been translated?

I like Alpha 3 and Third Strike, emulated arcade

I suppose the one I've played the most is Alpha 2 but you can't go wrong with Super Turbo

For me it's Street Fighter Alpha 3 on the PS1. Man I wish they'd release an online version on the PSN or something.

ROMs? No that's not legal I'm afraid, but they sell digital downloads of ROMs on PSN, nintendo e-shop etc...

A better question is:
Which game is more glitch-heavy between G1 Pokemon and FFVI?

I think they're both high contenders for the coding mistake crown.

What's the first (retro) game that /vr/ remembers actively anticipating before its release? As in, you didn't just see it at a store or receive it as a gift, you knew it was coming out and we're excited for it.

I'm pretty sure mine would be Pokemon Gold and Silver. The first issue of EGM I ever bought had a big preview of GS, and magazines were pretty much my only source of game news as a little kid. I lost track of how many times I read that single issue of EGM over and over.

The entire premise of this is fundamentally flawed unless split-screen can become a feature.

And yet Chip'n'Dales, Goof Troop, Secret Of Mana, and just every run&gun and beat-em-up work perfectly fine in non split screen co-op...

But those are 2D games. The screen can be easily locked.

It's harder to have both players on one screen in 3D game because of the camera.

A big open 3D platformer is obviously a different story.

Schthack broke up because they're all niggers that can't get along some shit and probably some combination of everyone jumping ship to PSO2, making it pointless to maintain anymore
>>
>>2817082

Yeah, I feel ya. Fuck Sega for not making an NA version of PSO2. I want to buy the jap version but that's a lot of nonsense just to play it and not know wtf is going on
>>
PSO is awesome, played the original DC version way back in the day, still got my save file but using it online is a pain nowadays.
Easily the best game on the Dreamcast for my money, even with all the cheaters, although even the cheaters were pretty high quality. I can't think of any other games where somebody could maliciously overwrite your save with a random low level NPC.


It's a shame that schtserv went down. It might not have had the best admin team but it really feels like the end of an era.
Lately I discovered a pretty good PSO-like game in the sadly not retro (just turned 10 years old on Monday) .hack//fragment for ps2. They definitely weren't subtle about how much they loved PSO, I haven't tried the private server online mode yet and this is pretty off topic so I'll shut up, but yeah PSO is great.

If I'm going to play Chrono Trigger, should I play the SNES or PS1 version? Keep in mind, I'm not looking forward to paying $100~ for the SNES version either, and I don't like emulating. Thanks.
