I'm glad I played moagg, which happened to feature that particular variation of gravity games.

Let's see about that one.

Looks like a Wipeout clone, but it ain't Hi Octane I guess...

np: Hanne Hukkelberg - Easy (In C Mix) (Sutekh - Born Again: Collected Remixes 1999-2005 (Disc 1))

Indeed not. I wouldn't say it is a Wipeout clone, though I guess there are some similarities in theme.

Gah! That looks soooo familiar.
It looks like it was off a demo disk many years ago... but I can't remember the game... so this is a pointless-ish post

It isn't Slipstream 5000 either, right?

np: SCSI-9 - When She Said Goodbye (Kompakt Total 7)

I actually thought ot putting Slipstreams 5000 up, but it's not that one.

I would add another screenshot, but I doubt it would help much here. The game made quite a lot of noise for its supposed technical performance when it was released; I guess it was a pretty local effect, though.

Speaking of local games, I almost wanted to put up On the Ball 2/Anstoß , but all the screenshots I could find were in German, which would have given half the game away (I doubt there are that many German football games).

Okay, here's a new shot! It's a game. (If I understood things correctly, we're only doing games in this thread now ?)

I somehow doubt people will be able to guess it from this shot, but it's the only one I've got handy right now that doesn't instantly give it away. But give it a try!



Hint: The screenshot has been resized, but is otherwise unmodified.

What about Dreamfall then? I don't know, that screen just screams "Funcom" for me.

Of course, if it isn't Dreamfall either (and I doubt it is), I'll just wait for a new screenshot instead of coming out from the blue.

Yes! It is Dreamfall! Congratulations! And here I thought the shot I selected was hard. I see what you mean about the Funcom screaming, though.

Anyway, great game. Not exactly puzzley, but an excellent story to make up for it. Can't wait for part 3.

I didn't play Dreamfall myself, so that was a fairly wild guess. Still, if it looks so much like TLJ, but isn't it, why not the sequel?

Let's see about that one.

Hopefully this isn't too obscure (although after seeing someone guess the nighttime sky one above, I don't think any game is too obscure for this group).

Damn, I keep missing the postings

On an aside note, would it be possible to update the subtitle of this thread? It still mentions movies and may confuse.
