(xxpost) not Panic or Dig Dug...

snoball, Friday, 17 October 2008 16:49 (fifteen years ago) link

It is Pitfall?

polyphonic, Friday, 17 October 2008 16:50 (fifteen years ago) link

"Is it", I mean.

polyphonic, Friday, 17 October 2008 16:50 (fifteen years ago) link

It's not Pitfall.

snoball, Friday, 17 October 2008 16:52 (fifteen years ago) link

Loderunner?

allez, allons-y, on y va (ledge), Friday, 17 October 2008 16:54 (fifteen years ago) link

No, not Loderunner. It's a 2600 game, which admittedly doesn't help a lot.

snoball, Friday, 17 October 2008 17:00 (fifteen years ago) link

the character makes me think of robin hood...

allez, allons-y, on y va (ledge), Friday, 17 October 2008 17:02 (fifteen years ago) link

It's not Robin Hood.

snoball, Friday, 17 October 2008 17:03 (fifteen years ago) link

5 is neither paperboy or eddie kidd

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Friday, 17 October 2008 17:03 (fifteen years ago) link

I cheated on number 5, am I allowed to tell?

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 17:05 (fifteen years ago) link

yeah go on, nobody seems to be able to get it

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Friday, 17 October 2008 17:07 (fifteen years ago) link

Enduro Racer. Thank you MAWS.

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 17:08 (fifteen years ago) link

GO
HIT
TAKE
TOOLS

Does this describe every conceivable action in any game ever? (Except TALK, I guess.)

allez, allons-y, on y va (ledge), Friday, 17 October 2008 18:37 (fifteen years ago) link

#38 is Goonies II

Lingbert, Friday, 17 October 2008 18:43 (fifteen years ago) link

That is correct!

polyphonic, Friday, 17 October 2008 19:17 (fifteen years ago) link

Ah snap I was just gonna guess goonies 2

mayor jingleberries, Friday, 17 October 2008 21:06 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 39 Mario Paint or some shit like that?

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 21:12 (fifteen years ago) link

It is not Mario Paint.

I will say that it is vaguely obscure, and for the NES.

41:

polyphonic, Friday, 17 October 2008 21:28 (fifteen years ago) link

lol is that Reagan?

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 21:29 (fifteen years ago) link

My Google Fu was strong enough to defeat 39. I'd never heard of it before.

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 21:45 (fifteen years ago) link

oh man I remember the nintendo power issue that featured #39 but the hell I know what the name was. Some kinda boat fighting racing game.

El Tomboto, Friday, 17 October 2008 21:47 (fifteen years ago) link

Snakey Polygon.

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 21:48 (fifteen years ago) link

I'm guessing 41 is one of those global arms race strategy games that I'm not remembering the name of?

Poll Wall (Noodle Vague), Friday, 17 October 2008 21:49 (fifteen years ago) link

#41 is "Bad Dudes Vs. DragonNinja" ("President Ronnie has been kidnapped by ninjas!")

snoball, Friday, 17 October 2008 21:58 (fifteen years ago) link

Yes, 41 is Bad Dudes. #39 is indeed some kinda boat fighting racing game, and one of the games I owned as a kid.

polyphonic, Friday, 17 October 2008 22:32 (fifteen years ago) link

Nobody's even guessed at 35 yet... :(

CraigG, Saturday, 18 October 2008 11:09 (fifteen years ago) link

Is 35 Gods?

caek, Saturday, 18 October 2008 11:18 (fifteen years ago) link

CraigG, Saturday, 18 October 2008 12:48 (fifteen years ago) link

35 Artura ?

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Saturday, 18 October 2008 12:50 (fifteen years ago) link

or Stormlord?

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Saturday, 18 October 2008 12:54 (fifteen years ago) link

nope and nope. Gods is kind of the right era ('92).

CraigG, Saturday, 18 October 2008 12:57 (fifteen years ago) link

39 is Cobra Triangle, I think.

CraigG, Saturday, 18 October 2008 13:12 (fifteen years ago) link

Yessir

polyphonic, Saturday, 18 October 2008 17:09 (fifteen years ago) link

Doctor Casino, Saturday, 18 October 2008 17:50 (fifteen years ago) link

btw snoball was right with deadly discs of tron for that crazy 2600 looking game, forget the number. i cheated and checked it out. It is in fact running on some sort of atari clone machine looking at the website.

Ant Attack |=| (Ste), Saturday, 18 October 2008 21:11 (fifteen years ago) link
