Wishbone: Definitely worth going back to.

Heh, if the good people of gog.com frequents this thread (and the forum in general) they must have a loooong list of potential new games by now..

Zeewolf: Ok, this one could be quite hard. It depends, really - it was huge in a certain segment of the gaming population, so if you belong to that particular group, you'll recognize it instantly. If you don't... well, it'll be difficult. So I might drop some major hints later, if needed. You guys are clever, though, so let's wait and see. :-)

Don't think I've ever seen it before, although the naming of the screenshots seems apt, as it appears to use the original Doom engine (id Tech 1). Can't find it on MobyGames though, under games using that engine.

Yeah. Although the C64 and Amiga games probably aren't in their scope. Still, it's not so much a matter of "which games do people want" as a matter of "who holds the rights to them". In all too many cases, this turns out to be EA, LucasArts, or some other huge publisher that is very unlikely to want to sell their games here :-(

Looks can be deceiving. :-)

Zeewolf: Is it good?

RogerT.Houston: Are they worth looking in to?

Definitely guys, I like their games a lot, the Runaways, Hollywood Monsters, etc... If you like Adventure games that is.

Breathless
Posted January 25, 2009
It's not that old bungee game Marathon is it?
Posted January 25, 2009
Breathless is correct! :-) Your turn Instant.

Damn, I'd have never guessed this was an Amiga game. I've never heard of it, and all the Amiga FPS's I've seen ran in tiny little windows, because there wasn't enough processing power to render 3D in fullscreen in real time. This must have been quite an achievement.

Oh well, it seems instant isn't going to use his turn (I think 7 hours is long enough to wait), so I'll throw one out there.
It's a C64 game this time. Very old. Great two player game, although people always ended up playing it slightly differently than the developers had intended :-)

Save New York
Posted January 26, 2009
Okay, here we go:
One of the best adventure games to me, personally. I had a hard time finding screenshots for it, so I might need to drop some hints later on.
Oh, and it's even on the wishlist, so it's absolutely necessary that you vote it up later on :)

Zeewolf: Save New York

Exactly, or Kill New York, as it was more often called among my friends. Any two player game usually ended up as a combined dogfight / razing-the-city-to-the-ground, rather than the friendly game of coop save-the-city-from-the-aliens that it was meant to be :-D

Terrorists! :-)
It's been far too long since I've played this one. I'm spending a lot of time with WinVICE these days, so maybe I should dig it up again.
As for Instants game... I haven't got a clue.

Of course, that requires that someone figures out what the hell it is ;-)
It looks like it's made with bucketloads of humor, so I hope all shall be revealed soon. I've certainly never seen it before, more's the pity.
