Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Ive never played it, I just saw a review for it ages ago and it has such an odd title it was on the tip of my toungue for about half an hour! :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Ah, you should. Everyone should. It's trippy. Like 'Amplitude' meets 'Barberella' with the actors from 'Days Of Our Lives'.:p:

And it's a solid rhthym action game to boot. I just wish the sequel had been released properly so it didn't cost £75 second hand.:disturbd:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Come on. Next.

If Zeph doesn't post a screen then it's up for grabs.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Go on then, what's this from :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

:shocking:

I didnt think anyone would get it, well done!

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I thought I recognized them... it's obvious now you say it. Quite good likenesses really. Nothing like the illustrations in the book though. Disgraceful.

What are you two doing playing childrens' film tie-ins anyway..?

I... D-D-D-Don't...know:(

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

c64 classic (in my eyes anyway) :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Remember playing it on the c64 but can't think of the title.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I give up. :dunce:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Me too... didn't play many C64 games as a kid.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Well, while we're waiting for a reply from ne0phile, I'll post another one to be going on with. Here it is.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Looks like a game called Wipeout, but i doubt it is.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Nope. Nothing to do with Bob Monkhouse or The Beach Boys. ;)

But, there is a link...:dozey:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Celebrity Squares?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

It's got nothing to do with Thunder Birds?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

C L U E


Xbox game from the makers of the original 'Wipeout'.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Quantum Redshift?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Yes. You are correct. Your post.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Hold your horses, obviousley I get the Beach Boys clue but please explain the Bob Monkhouse reference as that was the reason for my rather inept Thunder Birds answer.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Bob Monkhouse hosted a great daytime quiz show called 'Wipeout' in the 90s. Now can you can explain to me how you get from Bob Monkhouse to 'Thunderbirds' because I'm stumped!

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Off course he did. Bob Monkhouse voiced the parts of a couple of guest characters in the mid sixties.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

There style really didn't change much then... Wipeout was a rubbish game to be honest.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Redshift was quite a bit different to Wipeout. Much more open levels, multiple routes. The style was a lot less 'clubbing' too. Great to play. I preferred Wipeout though. Would love to see a next gen version of Wipeout. There was only Fusion and Redshift released this gen. And they were both flawed. The best version out there seems to be Pure and that has some framerate issues. When we gonna see Wipeout done proper and online eh?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

OK try this one :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

that'll be discworld then

btw mine was countdown to meltdown

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Which one though Ne0phile? Im looking for the name, not the number :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

DiscWorld Noir

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Thats the one, your turn Daddy :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Here you go

---------- Post added at 14:13 ---------- Previous post was at 13:03 ----------

Dont know what happened to that

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Escape From Monkey Island (Monkey Island 4)?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Well done :tu: I wanted to put an old Amiga screenshot in, many many hours wasted on that in my youth , but it wasn't to be.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I never played 3 or 4 but the pirate references made my 'monkey sense' tingle and then I recognized Guybrush.

I think if you HAD posted a screen from the first game it would have gone quicker - unless you were clever and posted a tricky one like this:

Attachment 11254

Anyway, I'll post one shortly. I've got to go do summit.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Try this one.

Attachment 11255

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Skies of Arcadia?

Sorry, the tool tip came up and I couldn't help but read it :blush:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Good job I named the file after a different game to the answer then ain't it. :dozey:

God I'm so immature!

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Hahaha, in that case, I ain't got a clue... had never heard of that one before in any case ;)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

OK Clue time.

http://img55.imageshack.us/img55/960...isaclue5yf.jpg

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I'll give you one last clue OK?

PS2 - It's follow up has just been released. SOTC.


:rolleyes:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Is it escape from the black lagoon?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I'm not telling

:disturbd:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Mario Kart?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Leave me alone.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Methinks this thread has passed away in the night. RIP :o:

Feel free to rescusitate at any time :sleep:

:angel:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Unfortunately I am out fixing a pc atm but I will post a screeny tonight before I go to bed if I get time

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I know I know! It's ICO! :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

It's too late now Zeph. Go home, Just go home.

Dilli baggsied the next screen so, unless he doesn't post one by tonight, he's next.

BTW Dilli, is that your Mum? :Yikes:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Doh!

And no its that Porn star off Big Bruvva :(

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I always thought it looked like the bar woman from Coronation Street from a few years back... what was her name?

edit: Bet Lynch... that's it. Now, why has Dilli got a picture of Bet Lynch for his avatar...? :scratch:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

http://faculty.uccb.ns.ca/amaclean/bet.jpg

Same colour top and everything... hmmm... facelift? :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I think it's going to be a while before i'm finished here so if Zeph wants to post a screeny he can....

As for Bet Lynch - well what can I say I fancy older women ;)

p.s. the porn star of BB is Tera Patrick when she comes in in week 10 ;) :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

OK, here's my submission :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

It's Halo.

Here's mine.

http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=...lossus/ico.jpg

Also if it's a Sam and Max game I'd advise a change of filename.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Shadow of the Colossus...?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

:rofl:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Chocky, youre wrong.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Aha, the trickster becomes the trick-ed.

No idea then.

:confused:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Heh, that's what it's referred to on Google... can you guess that I've got no idea...? ;)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Back to mine for a mo then as it hasnt been answered correctly yet :) There's a clue which seems sort of out of place in the image :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Yeah, the file name was shadowofthecolossus/ico.jpg. I'm assuming it was part of a review for SOTC showing Ico as the previous game. It was funny mainly because I posted Ico as the game before last. ;)

Zeph! You saying that the SamAndMax filename is a clue to the actual game?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Yes, sort of :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I give up.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

OK here's a clue, the game was by the same people that made Sam & Max Hit the Road

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Is it Grim Fandango? I assume you mean it's a LucasArts game? There's a new Sam And Max title coming soon BTW, and this time it's 'episodic'. :dozey:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

:rolleyes:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Missed this reply :) And yes you're correct :D

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Gear!

Here's my next then.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Pilotwings?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Mais oui Monsieur Raja. :D

Pilotwings 64 to be precise. Now post a screen of your own and we can all guess what it is.

:spin:

Except me, I'm going to bed.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Here you go...

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Dogs?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

LOL,
I sense revenge is in the air... :D

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Well, you'll never get this one.

http://img86.imageshack.us/img86/162...anddogs3zw.gif

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Pang?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Yep, its pang.

What about this one

http://users.pandora.be/mpq/software.../llamatron.gif


Don't look at the filename!!!!!

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Remove the arzing name of the game from the bloddy filename! :disturbd: ;)

IT'S LLAMATRON AND I KNEW IT BEFORE I LOOKED AT THE FILENAME! :rolleyes:


Yes, peanutkp, it WAS Pang. :dozey: You post a screen if you like now.

Gah.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Ok, a nice simple one.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Simple eh? :confused:

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

A clue.......

Taken from 'Crash' magazine

Sandy White is a quiet Scot and a sculptor by trade. His understanding of three dimensional construction is evident in his game, ******. Unveiled at the Quicksilva press show, it raised admiring oohs and ahs from the gathering. According to the press release, Quicksilva was so impressed by the stunning quality of the graphics, that they flew Sandy down from Scotland and signed a contract within 24 hours. A patent has been applied for to protect his 3D soft solid routines.

Quite simply, ******** contains the most breathtaking 3D graphics yet seen on the Spectrum (big clue); as one of our reviewers pointed out, very similar to Zaxxon graphics, and quite as good as you can see in an arcade.

Haha, How times change eh.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Ant Attack??

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

yep, well done, it is 3D Ant Attack. Yours for only £6.95 on cassette. :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Heh, I remember that... nice quote, btw, about the breathtaking graphics :D

---------- Post added at 09:20 ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 ----------

ps - good choice, monkey2468... I loved Llamatron on the ST :dmonk:

Just found out that Jeff Minter does the funky visualisation stuff on teh XBox360 dashboard... it'd be cool if he re-released some of his old stuff for the 360 :)

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Didn't know that! He used to live in wales, not sure if he still does.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I beleive he worked with Winamp on the vizualizations hence the name too, that's what I was told at least.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Until Zeph decides to post one heres a tricky one (or two actually).

http://img63.imageshack.us/img63/3002/huh7bi.jpg

Actually, the fact that there's two of them is a big clue.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

They look like 'Tron' tanks - maybe it's a Tron 2 gane?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Is it that tank game from that hand held binocular type of thing. It's not a comp/arcade game for sure??

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Peanut's right. It's from Tomy's 3D Sky Attack - which was pretty obviously based on the film Tron.

https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2006/05/5.jpg

I had the 'Thundering Turbo' one. I wanted 'Sky Attack' but it was sold out and I got given 'Alien Attack' instead which turned out to be much better but not as cool.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Lol, I quite liked those things when they came out.

Here's one from I spent countless hours playing. Quite a easy one though.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Robotron.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

It's good but it's not quite right.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Robotron 2084?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

It's not robotron but it's probably where they got the idea from.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Is it mutant storm?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Nope, sorry.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Tempest

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

I recognise it but I don't think I'll get it.

Does it have the word 'robot' in it?

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Nope, wasn't tempest the one that was wireframe one, and you spin the knob firing down the tunnel as they come at you? Came out on vectrex etc.

---------- Post added at 23:39 ---------- Previous post was at 23:37 ----------

No it's not got Robot in the title, a clue, it out on the Atari, and you also get a bouncing ball that comes after you if you spend too long in one room.

Re: whats this screenshot from?
 

Is it 3D Monster Maze?
