Guess that Game (a game)

Earth + bound hands = Earthbound.

Make sure you pop back into the thread to let people know when they got your puzzle right. You can post as many puzzles or answers as you like. Feel free to ask for hints if you need them. If people have fun with this, I’ll start threads like this up in some other forums.

And, to kick things off, something slightly harder:

I just got the "till" part. That’s sneaky.

New one:

The only thing I can think of is Blood Omen for the bottom two pictures.

Awesome thread btw 😀

Simultaneous post gloty. gj AG~

If this one is too hard, I’m sorry.

Please do, doomjockey!

Second, hope I’m doing it right:

I am pretty sure yours is a Shin Megami Tensei game but I haven’t figured out which.

If this one is too hard, I’m sorry.

Please do, doomjockey!

Iron Sword: Wizards and Warriors II

EDIT: Didn’t see that DoomJockey already got it.

First, Iron Sword: Wizards and Warriors 2 ;D

Second, hope I’m doing it right:

Shin Megami Tensei III: Lucifer’s Call

Another, if I may:

Yup!

And now to try and guess doomjockey’s!

@doomjockey: BioShock

Let’s try this one.

For arthur’s puzzle: I’m guessing Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies.

And I might as well let this play:

If anyone not only gets this but has played the game I will make them some kind of certificate of awesomeness.

Guilty Gear XX # Reload: The Midnight Carnival (?)

Ever17: Out of Infinity

Nope, and I’ve never even heard of it before I saw your visual clue.

Dr. Mid-nite! JSA is my favorite, do you read it?

I’m a bit of a DC noob in general, but I do my best. Starting so late means I get to catch up though 😀

Last puzzle you had was tough, man. What’s that game about?

Two boys and five girls are trapped in a huge water amusement park after a terrible accident. The danger increases as they face a mysterious virus that could kill them. In order to find out what is happening and why, you must unravel the many mysteries of the game by controlling a boy named Takeshi, and another boy who has amnesia and can’t remember his own name.

Arc the Lad: Twilight of the Spirits

bp, thanks a bunch, I was just about to ask. I’ll have to check it out asap 🙂

Correct!

Think I might make this in the TV/Movie forum when I have time, unless anyone has ideas for takin’ it to GD.

SOUP EMERGENCY OFFSPRING ARMY??

Harhar double-timed, jalv 😛

All right. Let’s try this one.

bump

I’ll admit that the first thing I thought was "bill", but after I figured out "Fantasy", final just fit.

ok, i’m done staring that yours now, neg. it didn’t make sense at first, and it won’t no matter how long i stare at those aol trials. when did they jump to 1099 free hours anyway?

So what’s the answer to this one?

here’s another one.

Also, we still don’t have any guesses on this…

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith?

Still got a bunch lying around from this morning…

The first two images are different representations of the same word. That word appears twice in succession in the game’s title.

Also, is yours City of Heroes and City of Villains?

???????????????Ok so Clu Clu Land?????

I think the other one I posted should be a lot easier.

Little late to answer here, but you are right. I say melee may-lay so that might not have been clear to people who pronounce it differently.

Here’s mine.

simple looking, but looks can be deceiving.

Jordan Versus Bird: one on one. Versus took me a while to figure out because It’s been a while since I’ve seen the movie and I couldn’t remember the name for the life of me.

The basketball player’s name is Yao Ming. I have no idea who the first guy is. also, you are correct on my puzzle. Still looking to see if anyone can get my first one without some help

For your map one, would you at least tell us how many words we’re supposed to decode from it?

It’s one word. there are two syllables contained in the picture to decode.

Like, X + Compass?

The man’s name is Lemmy and he is the lead singer of the band Motorhead. I still can’t figure it out though.

Lem + Yao Ming = Lemyowming ???

multiple mings and all

Here’s another.

Is it Exile?

Like, X + isle (instead of island)?

Megaman and Bass. I think Cause "all your base are belong to us now". But I think it’s pronounced b-ass.

This is Jeopardy. Before + After XD

Like, X + isle (instead of island)?

You got it! I could not find a picture of a regular map with an Island and x marking the spot without all the pirate symbols to distract people. though in hindsight I could have photoshopped my own. Exile was a very interesting if obscure game for the Turbo Duo.

Also, Jesus Christ! I can’t believe how many fricking games you can come up with that "Rock N cats" puzzle! I didn’t even think about megaman and Bass and Megaman zero. I should pick my pictures better I guess.

Edit: I don’t listen to very much Motorhead Neg. it’s not my favorite band.

Neg (7:35:51 PM): well take out the note
Rob (7:35:59 PM): what note?
Neg (7:36:09 PM): the one where you underlined spend
Rob (7:36:12 PM): well
Rob (7:36:21 PM): that’s the only way someone would get it
Rob (7:36:27 PM): you obviously didn’t
Neg (7:36:35 PM): well yeah, but that means it’s hard and that’s good

Kudos AG, for getting it without spend being underlined 😉

damn AG, you got it fast. nice job.

Here’s another.

rush n’ attack

Lemmings is correct.;)

Unless my knowledge decives me that is Rygar. Also I don’t know how I missed Rush’n attack as I used to play that game to death on the NES back in the day.

Maybe some more tomorrow, if people want to keep this going.

Oh the irony of this picture set up.

Sorry. It’s late over here. I’m in a silly mood, and I couldn’t resist.

Give this a try.

(breaks out stopwatch.) OK. Let’s see if you AG or anyone else can break your record of 2 minutes on one of my puzzles.

dog/Shiro/wolf/fox
doe/deer/reindeer/game
ziggurat/zig/temple/pyramid/step/colossus

Is it any combination of those? =)

Edit: Yeah I realized that I screwed up on the spelling of the game and I should have used a hand of some sort. I have always gotten einh???nder confused with Einhinder. My mistake. The reason for this is because of the opening sequence of the game, the voice pronounces the name as " Ein-Hind-er". The ??? has a umlaut on it so I don’t know if it’s supposed to be pronounced as a I.

I’ll go for a double, Barkley Shut Up and Jam.

Last one from me for a while.

Oh well. What to do next?

Yep yep. Probably another easy one:

is that a game? i thought it was a tv show

ok i made one, i think its easy!

edit: why am i always too late? 😐

biker mice from mars?

is that a game? i thought it was a tv show

i thought it was only a game, i’d never heard of the show until now.

is that a game? i thought it was a tv show

Biker Mice from Mars (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGXN8t5T0Nk). Gotta know your 16-bit racers. =)

chrono trigger

Girl with snake + George Clooney = 0?

the first picture is from the movie the reaping, the second is george clooney = ER (didnt want to repeat mandi’s hosptial shot)

the first picture is from the movie the reaping, the second is george clooney = ER (didnt want to repeat mandi’s hosptial shot)

Nice. Sneaky.

Here’s another one. This is from something that has the same name as a video game. If no one can get this, I’ll give you a clue.

Do people want a clue on mine?

and yes, a hint would be nice

If you’re stuck, here’s another one:

You got it!

Shouldn’t be too hard. 🙂

This one was a little difficult. But I think I got it.

Stella Deus: The Gate of Eternity?

Yep 😀

Italian star = Stella
God = Deus
Brandenburg Gate = Gate
caryatid of Eternity = Eternity

Ok, maybe that was a bit too symbolic. 🙁

Forgot to confirm this was right!

I made a similar thread over in TV/Movies (Thread 67560) if you guys would want to play there too.

btw, here’s an incredibly simple one from me.

and no, it is NOT Black.

Megaman X4 my first and favorite Megaman X game/

btw, here’s an incredibly simple one from me.

and no, it is NOT Black.

Google tells me there’s a game called Whoopee. Never heard of it, but is that it?

Yeah that’s it. It’s an old and bizarre arcade game.

Correct, except for the punctuation. =)

and

and lastly

A new one 🙂

@DoomJockey: Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines
EDIT: Beaten to the punch.

I’m all out for now.

Yeah, I thought that one might be kind of iffy, but you got it. 🙂

I get the feeling pure symbolism may be too hard/annoying though. 😮

Donkey Kong

Gotcha Force

Yep.

Donkey Konga?

solved

solved

solved

I’ve gotta run, but this one is Bard’s Tale.

And this one is Magician.

and another because i am entirely too bored right now

i could be the only one that has an issue with it though so if i am just ignore me :\

Totally Rad?

Pinball Quest?

Batman?

Big Nose the Caveman?

I have no idea what the Magic Johnson one is. Mahjongg? Earvin John? Magic John? 32 John? I’m close, aren’t I? 😉

here’s a repost of the last unsolved one

So, for example:

This would be Super Mario Bros.

Here’s one to get you started. If this ends up being too hard, I’ll go back to the old puzzles.

BTW: BNX, I believe the answer for your last unsolved riddle is Abadox. ABA (character from GG Izuka) + docks.

By the way, if anyone’s interested, we really need more votes in the Video Game Music Rumble (Thread 66118) this round. You just need to vote for the Twilight Princess or Super Mario 64 soundtrack. I don’t know why, but everyone suddenly disappeared. Spooky.

and another from me

It’s actually not a game specifically for girls…

Hint: It’s a well known dōjin game.

It’s actually not a game specifically for girls…

Hint: It’s a well known dōjin game.

Au contraire, GAL games are not for girls, ever. Unless theyre lesbians.
GAL games are games designed for men.
WARNING: hentai gal games and gal games are not the same, but both are still targeted mainly at men.

Nope. The cast for this game is original.

WARNING: hentai gal games and gal games are not the same, but both are still targeted mainly at men.

Sorry. Don’t know this distinction. I’ve only heard the term "girl games," meaning Barbie games, horse games, etc.

actually, wait, found it! Rosenkreuz Stillette!
it seems to be a megaman-like game, rather than a gal game in particular.

now if only we could get a hint on beard’s…

oh hey, and here’s another for you to guess on.

actually, wait, found it! Rosenkreuz Stillette!
it seems to be a megaman-like game, rather than a gal game in particular.

That’s correct! It’s a blatant Mega Man clone, but interesting in its own right. There’s a speed run of it at Speed Demos Archive (http://speeddemosarchive.com/Rosenkreuzstilette.html), if anyone’s interested.

oh hey, and here’s another for you to guess on.

Yours is Earthbound.

Here’s another one from me…

Anyway, here’s another…

By the way, did I get Earthbound correct?

Good luck!

Btw, will anyone be able to answer mine?

No idea what yours is. I guess I don’t have the Shining.

Good luck!

ok, it’s an old NES game, likely a lightgun or run and gun game.
am i right so far?

Also, @Pisces Knight: Are you going to give us a hint?

Spider?

The town where I used to live didn’t get one until the PS1 came out, so I wouldn’t know.

As a hint, I’ll say this game is pre-PS1.

😀

So, does that mean I need to go find something?

I normally fail at these games so IDK what to do…

Good luck!

HOLY SHIT, i thought i was the only one in the entire internet who knew bloody wolf for the turbografx.

"Final Fantasy II" for the SNES

ok, so it’s really IV, but Square didn’t care back then.

and yes, you know Jackal when you see it.

Ha. That’s just about the oddest way I could have phrased my answer. I wrote that right before I took a nap. Now I’m embarrassed…

By the way, Final Fantasy II is correct.

Here’s another:

and i couldn’t resist posting Jackal after that guess of mine earlier…

Aww.

Here’s another…

here’s another from me

Final Fantasy VII.

Here’s another…

oh, and it was worth a shot with the misdirect. you’re apparently too smart for that though

here’s another

did i miss the answer to this one? or is it still live?

AMAZING!

Did you actually know the game?

If so you’re the first person online I’ve heard of that knows of the game besides me.

🙂

I forgot about that one. It’s still live. We haven’t heard back from BeardedPrincess. Might be worth a PM at this point.

Here’s another easy one.

oh, and it was worth a shot with the misdirect. you’re apparently too smart for that though

here’s another

Eye of the Beholder?

Here’s another easy one.

f-zero

and no, not eye of the beholder, i think that’s even the wrong genre (sort of)

Did you actually know the game?

If so you’re the first person online I’ve heard of that knows of the game besides me.

🙂

Nope. Never heard of it. After Google Image searching a lot of different ideas, I gave up and clicked on "New Posts" and at the top of the list was one of your other threads (Thread 67795). I knew it wasn’t Legend of Kage 2, but on a lark I tried the second one on your list and there it was.

Well damn, not going to do that again…

>_>

@BNX: I know I’ve seen yours before. It reminds me of a combo of Lord of the Flies () and Pikmin (). It’s driving me nuts…I’ll try tracking it down later.

Here’s my last one for now. I gotta go to bed.

i’m willing to give a hint whenever y’all want, just ask.

Here’s another:

hint: it’s an NES game that was released two years later on a Sega console
hint 2: both versions had unbeatable segments due to horrid programming, including segments that ONLY work on emulators.

Here’s another:

need more hints?

Here’s another:

Sorry, Catastrophe. That’s incorrect.

alright, another hint, it was a multicart game.

Oh, Action 52! I probably haven’t seen that game since I was 7 or 8. That was a tough one.

bascially, you posted the same picture twice.

Here’s another one:

jeez, you really make me dig, y’know that?
so revenge, another from me!

I actually tried playing around with Solarize and Charcoal and other filters, but the covers either came out completely obscured or way too easy. So I gave up on it.

All right. I’m going to go in search of something on the level of Action 52. I feel like I need to up the difficulty. Be back in a little while.

Did you guys need a hint, or did I miss I guess?

Agreed.

Did you guys need a hint, or did I miss I guess?

We need a hint, please. =)

This a PS2 game with a sequel due out in North America next month.

gah, no wonder i didn’t find it while digging, my friend’s borrowing it.

gah, no wonder i didn’t find it while digging, my friend’s borrowing it.

Bingo!

Does anyone want a hint on this?

This is the other live one. And I have no idea what it is.

Google didn’t even help me…damn.

>_<

Correct.

Hint on mine is that it’s a Real time strategy game for the SNES. that should be a big enough clue.

Metal Marines.

here’s a double of the old style, except it’s for game companies rather than games.

and

and

Konami?

The top is The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. Funny, I didn’t know that game existed until I thought the pic looked like something out of a Tom Sawyer story.

Primal Rage is correct, too.

Here are a couple more…

really don’t know the bottom, looks like an 80s (or really early 90s) movie

Both are NES games.

The top one is a Compile game released officially in 1985 but also cloned and included in the multi-cart Power Player Super Joy III. It has since been released for the Virtual Console.

I’ll wait on hints for the bottom one.

still working on the top one.

ah! lunar pool!

huh, reading that to myself, it sounds like a somewhat confusing hint. ah well, you’re smart, you’ll get the hint i’m sure.

It’s an old Capcom promotion. Get points, trade them for a Capcom sweater, etc.

i lold.

Close…

That’s a game now?

Betelgeuse () vs. The Sun ()

On a related note I totally love this game. The story, the game mechanics, and the music is just plain awesome.

Yeah. I love the game, too. I bought it from Funco Land way back when for $80. Then it came out on Playstation. But I still prefer it on the SNES.

So glad I bough this since my ps1 copy was given away.

More specifically the Klonoa remake for the Wii.
