I've never seen this game before, unfortunately, but I don't mind waiting to see whether anyone else knows it.

Hey, not even I managed to do that, and I remember stalling it for several days...

np: Yello - Stalakdrama (Stella)

Oh, bah... I'm just worried when a Forum Games thread goes two days without anyone posting other than myself ^^;;

I can assure you that game has been released stateside (not sure about outside the US), as I managed to get myself a copy a couple weeks ago after having been searching for it for longer than I care to tell anyone I was actively searching for a game and refusing to just break down and get it online ^^;;

Wonderful game, in any case.... Even if the localization *does* leave a lot to be desired.

The game's certainly a Treasure...

I'd say give it 'til tomorrow before you do, Mattcrampy.

Though I hardly see how it could be cheating at this point when I've come pretty close to the 'sledgehammer' type of hint.

I'm just going to guess that nobody else here has played that game before. A shame, that.

Woot! Finally! Now someone else has to put up a screenshot ^^

SM is a fun game... Kinda like crossing Metal Slug with Ikaruga. Works surprisingly well.

Heh. Yeah, I worded things badly. Though I would certainly have been amused if Someone Else chose to put up a screenshot when I said that

Actually, someone posted a screenshot after you posted. I forget who, he deleted his post.

WINNAH! Yep, it's Alternate Reality: The City, which I played on an Atari 800XL. A game that was way ahead of it's time. Too bad the series was never completed.

True, that.

Anyhow... so what's this then?

If I wanted to trade back, he'd let me. It was all written up in the contract. Thing was, I lost my copy in a barbeque accident."

And what an accident that was...

Great film, that... Too bad the R-rating makes using a lot of the quotes from IMDB rather hard...

Okay, your turn; and, as always, I'm two modpoints short of modding you to +3...

np: Yello - Drive/Driven (Baby)

That's correct. This screenshot is not from Lawrence of Arabia.

I think it is, however, important to not hide the fact that this movie was in color and black and white. I don't know if that helps any...

Only movie using that effect that this could maybe fit... is it Schindler's List? (wild guessing)

"The Good, the Bad and the Ugly"

Finally recognized it on my third viewing of the screenshot, which is pretty embarassing considering that the title theme is the ring tone for my cel.
