what're the games in the upper left and lower right

>>4226842
Upper left is Sengoku Turb (pic related), this really great Dreamcast action RPG where you play a girl leading an army of cats to wage war against sheep people. It's a remake/sequel of a PC98 game, and the only thing related to Bio 100% to get a little bit more exposure. The art style and sense of humor alone make it worth playing, but the gameplay is really fun too once you get into that groove of upgrading all your troops and adapting to the weird action.

Bottom right is Germs: Nerawareta Machi, a very interesting open-world survival horror game on the PS1. The artwork doesn't have the name, sorry. First-person, rather unique controls, and a really cool surrealist body horror theme. Some people relate it to Deadly Premonition.

5/5, thanks for this. I've been curious about Metal Fighter Miku for a while. Is the gameplay actually fun, or is it more of a 'look at the flashy animations' game? I'm also interested in Doki Doki Pretty League. How in-depth is the training aspect?

Miku is a pretty standard VN-style adventure game, but the fights can be pretty cool once you wrap your head around it.
Training in DDPL is like a lot of management sims in that you pick a training regimen and hit start. It's got more bishoujo game character exposition than other sports management sims though, which gives it a slightly less cold and mechanical feel.

5/6. Saga Frontier is really something else.
>>4227728
I appreciate the info. I don't really mind the cold mechanical feel of a lot of management sims, but sometimes having cute girls smile at you every now and then isn't bad either.
>>4227846
Geeze anon, I'm sorry. Which games are you referring to exactly?
>>4227867
>You seem like a person I'd get along.
I appreciate it! Actually, can you recommend any games in return for me? I like most any genre, but what I love most is finding new mechanics I haven't seen before in other games. I also tend to prefer shorter games to longer ones.
>>4227880
6/6. These are some really good games.
>>4227957

My favorite track in the game too. I want to have an N64 and a TV again so I can play more S&P already. Moving to another country is tough.

What's Ranger-X like?

>>4228071

My nigga. I love that game.

It's fucking radical is what it is. Beautiful graphics and extremely tight gameplay with varied levels.

>>4228071
>>4228164
Colours are a bit muted in the webm though.

Well here is my addition

>>4226842
I was like wow cool what's 蒼魔灯 and I look it up and it's just another Deception game. Dammit, still gonna check it out anyway.

I guess my taste is pretty generic...

>>4226842
>>4228229
Have you guys tried the Yakochuu games?
They're adventure games aboard a ship.
The second one is a sound novel.

>>4228231
Honestly I wouldn't call it generic, it's a nice mosaic.
7/7
Need to play Clock Tower and Vagrant someday.

>>4228247
No but I will thanks!

>>4228251
Clock Tower is a pretty fast playthrough. The randomization gives it some good replay value as well though

>>4228251
I meant more generic in that the games I really like are the games pretty much everybody really likes.
Any recs would be really welcome especially anything similar to Guardian Heroes or Valkyrie Profile since they're probably my favorite 2 up there

>>4226842
could you BE any more of a hipster piece of shit?

>>4228276
The games people like are the games they like. Does it really matter if they're relatively obscure?

This is just what I'm into right now. Bottom-right is Space Shadow (NES). It's hard to find a decent image to use for it.

I already rate all the others in the thread.

>>4228229
I've actually never played a sound novel, but Twilight Syndrome and Yuuyami Doori are amazing. Would you recommend any of those in particular? Is Baroque Syndrome actually any good?
>I was like wow cool what's 蒼魔灯 and I look it up and it's just another Deception game. Dammit, still gonna check it out anyway.
Yeah, sorry about that. The Japanese title and cover are just so much cooler. Either way I'm a huge fan of the Deception series all-around.
>>4228276
Sorry that the games I like seem to be different than the games you like, anon. Although aren't most of the games I posted relatively well-known on /vr/ anyway? I really don't see what the problem is.
>>4228893
7/7, haven't played Doom 64 in particular. What's the last game? It looks cool.
>>4228247
I've heard of it before, but I've never gotten around to giving it a shot. I'll have to try out the first one, thanks a lot.
>>4228231
7/7 I don't know what you mean by 'generic,' you just seem to like some really damn good games. I should probably play the Seiken Densetsu series eventually. For a long, long time I considered Vagrant Story the best RPG I ever played.
>>4228071
5/5, I've never heard of a few of these, but they look cool. Brain Lord is a great name.

Well those are awesome games if you can read JP. Baroque Syndrome is above average for a PSX sound novel, especially if you like the Baroque games and want to see the precluding story to them. The best would be 夜想曲 死者の呼ぶ館 黒の十三 not in any particular order, but I would recommend the Yasoukyoku for a mix of light detective story with horror/suspense elements, Shisha no yobuyakata has a good story which changes with each playthrough, similar to 弟切草 Otogirisou which is a classic from the SFC days and also has changing scenarios. Some good ones for the SFC are 月面のアヌビス and ざくろの味. if you cant read japanese you should check out the Kamitachi no Yoru (Banshee's Cry in the translation) which they actually did a good job with. Outside of horror, 街 運命の交差点 is fucking amazing and one of the best sound novels out there, truly a master piece of a game, still better than the sequel which got a perfect score, despite being about the same or a little less than the original.

And holy shit have you play Yuuyami Dori? I have never met anyone on the internet or irl that is not Japanese that has played that game. It's one of my favorite games of all time. Still couldn't beat it after a bunch of play through because I always get killed by the spirits.

>>4228071
>that second row
Absolutely patrician mecha choices.

>>4228893
Then there's this guy's trash taste.
Otherwise some great choices in this thread.

4/4

what's top middle?

>>4230240
it's a Japanese Doom clone called Expert; where you play as an operative of the Expert Special Forces who would be dealing with a bunch of terrorists occupying a skyscraper. It's actually not half-bad as a doom clone and the game runs quite smoothly for all things considered. My only gripe is that you have a loadout of two of either weapons you can bring for each level. Been a while since i've played it though. might be a good time to revisit it

>>4226842
3x3 from my taste back then. Would be very different and difficult to select titles nowadays.

>>4226909
What are the absolute center, and bottom right?

>>4231527
Center is Keio Flying Squadron
Bottom right is Ginga Fukei Densetsu: Sapphire

Keio is a horizontal shoot em up, GFD is vertical

I have pretty generic taste desu
