O.D.T.
Tomb Raider with some RPG elements and magic.

>>9394648
I like the way this looks.

>>9394656
It's a neat game, I recommend it. It also has 4 playable characters and two secret characters to unlock.

>>9394642
I also played an obscure 5th Gen game named Quest. Never talked to anyone irl or online who played it other than my brother and I

>>9394693
Quest 64 is like an alpha build of an RPG that was never finished.

>>9394642
tayto looks like quagmire.

>>9394648
I remember playing that. Played on PS1. Had weird issues even for its time but also fun.

>>9394642

>>9394642
Brain Dead 13

>>9394693
I fucking loved Quest 64 as a kid, but I'll admit I used a Gameshark to cheat my way to the end because it was moving way too fucking slow for me a little more than halfway through.

Bangai-O deserves to be remembered. Same with Evolution and Power Stone.

>>9395474
It's embarrassing how into Evolution I was when I was young. Nobody ever heard of it or cared when I told them. I loved it. Years later I played Baroque for PS2 and ended up being downright glued to it.

Powerstone and Powerstone 2 were the most fun I ever had with others playing a videogame. Well Goldeneye 64 comes close, but it's def Powerstone.

>>9395470
Bangai-O gets lots of love in Treasure threads here. I've played the N64 version and it didn't really click with me, but I can see why people like it. What's the difference between those two versions?

>>9395470
I only played the DS version.
It was fun, but not worth buying a Dreamcast for.

>>9395470
Anon, it's Bangai-Oh. Any cool gamer has played it already.

Stargate (SNES)
Volley Fire (Game Boy)
Bujingai: The Forsaken City (PS2)
The Red Star (PS2)
Kingdom Grandprix (Arcade, Saturn)
Trap Gunner (PS1)
Soukyugurentai (Arcade, Saturn, PS1)
Sol-Deace (Genesis, Sega CD as Sol-Feace)

VR Sports Powerboat Racing
The poor man's Rapid Racer, which was already the poor man's Hydro Thunder.

>>9395470
This game is so sick. I've only played the 64 version and the sequel on the DS, though.

>>9395725
Volley Fire was included in a lot of XX in 1 cartridge, so every person who got one tried it. My friends and I tried it in link mode but it was not worth the trouble. Music was epic tho.

The Red Star was always on sale bins at big box stores. Cool setting but mediocre gameplay, was only good for couch coop.

Was gonna dump a wall o text but here's a video that explains it

tl;dr version is that N64 version is more challenging and better if you care about scoring. But I personally recommend playing DC version first as an introduction to the game.

>>9395571
>>9395848
DS version is SO HORRIBLE in comparison. I don't know what they were thinking! I got it and was ultra hyped but aaaaaaahhhhh it had no story, music was gone, and there was no action, just shitty puzzles.

>>9394642
Q-Pop
That iron is a spaceship. It's a weird game where you choose a dinosaur race and try to outbreed other races until they're extinct. Has been a favorite of mine, partly due to the soundtrack. Was a Windows 3.11 exclusive and very hard to run until some strange dude made a version that runs in the web.

>>9397279
And that's why it's a good game

>>9395447
Played Brain Dead 13 at a friend's house when I was 9, I was very confused as to what it was and how to play it

>>9395793
The only reason I played this game, is because my local video store's copy of Rapid Racer wouldn't load on my PlayStation. To this day, I still haven't played Rapid Racer beyond the demo that came with my console.

>>9395571
>It was fun, but not worth buying a Dreamcast for.
Completely different game, as >>9397279 said.
Bangai-O (DC) > Bangaioh (N64) > Missile Fury (Xbox 360) >>> actual dogshit > Panasonic 3DO > Spirits (DS)

Dude is a computational biologist or some shit. Pretty neat

>>9394932
Got this in a paper sleeve at a dollar store.

>>9394642
Ascendancy

Not sure if this is that unknown these days since apparently it's on Rare Replay, but nobody I knew had ever heard of this game before that.

>>9398394
Also I had this thing (But just the cartridge since I have no idea what I was thinking when I bought this from Funcoland) which also even today almost nobody seems to have heard about.

Never managed to beat either game, barely could get past the second or third world of Solar Jetman

It was a Sim game where you raise animals and create a habitat, but Star Wars. The game also had annoying repetitive voice clips in it that still pop into my head now and then.
>De GUNGANS need places to LIVE, and food to EAAT

>>9395793
Rapid Racer came first though.

>>9394648
I played the demo it was good

>>9395470
is that a klansmen in the top left?

>>9399382
yeah, the original had a "64" instrad of a DC.
They changed it for the localized DC version.

>>9397753
seriously cool dude, this

>>9398046
Damn. That game stole my sleep like rarely any other. Such great atmosphere it was insane. Brilliant choice

prophecy of the shadow. never seen this game mentioned anywhere. i was far too young and retarded to get anywhere in it at the time. my brother had bought it.

>>9399384
crazy how things once where and how they are now. never heard of this game as a kid when dreamcast was new but the fact that they were even allowed to have it in their game in the first place just goes to show how much has changed. like this isn't even the same life when I was a kid.

>>9394642
You actually got me, fucking hell. I need to go back to Ireland and get some more Taytos.

>>9394693
what a massive piece of shit. i was stuck playing that in 5th gen while my ps1 owner friends got to play final fantasy 7 and suikoden 2

>>9398394
I found that game at a garage sale and played it for a good while. I thought it was really great.

>>9399992
So unlike them you didn't become trans/gay, be grateful

One for PS1.

The worst platformer i ever tried to beat.

>>9398746
This is a zoomer as fuck thing to say but I knew about this from a JonTron video and every so often I say "WEESA NEEDIN A NEW HOME ON DE MOON" and it became a joke quote with my friends til it devolved into "WEESA GOIN DOWN TO DA EPIC PLANET," we even made an overdub for a boss nass mod for jk3

>>9403408
I rented that once from the video store because I thought the guy looked like Johnny Bravo. I had a nightmare after I played it of being stuck on a platform and boxed in by those skulls that came up when you died.

>>9394693
Probably the least obscure game I've ever seen in these threads. They advertised this on Raw is War how the fuck is it obscure

>>9394693
I still have my fucking copy of this game. I got for $5 in a bin back in 2001.

Tunnels & Trolls Crusaders of Khazan

>>9394693
There was some Let's Play making the rounds around 2010ish that was how I found out about this game. All I remember is the weird older girl who follows you around sometimes doesn't have pants for no reason

>>9399534
The only thing I remember was it having those digitized actors cutscenes which made me believe it was one of those FMV games and made me lost all interest.

>>9403408
Wasn't this the last thing Phil Hartman acted in before he died?

>>9404872
Yes, the game came out a few months after he died, although I am not sure when the lines were recorded to say if this was the last thing he ever did (The game was originally planned to come out in 1997).

From what I recall reading they were planning to make a series of Blasto games and a major part of the character and advertising was that Phil Hartman was voicing him. Any later sequels were cancelled after the news. Whether that was a convenient excuse because the game did not do well, the actual reason, or a mixture of both however I have no idea.

I've never seen anyone make reference to this game anywhere outside of videos on the game itself.

>>9403408
I did a full play through of this game a couple of years ago because I’d owned it since I was like 7 but never actually got past the third or 4th level. Despite how shitty it can be the game’s got a ton of charm and really does play out like a slightly edgier episode of Looney Tunes.

>>9394693
Started playing it but didn't get even halfway in before I dropped it for something else. Pretty shallow game if I recall.

>>9394983
What Tayto doin?

>>9406107
I don't remember this game's name, but I did have it on my PS1s demo disc. My child hands weren't very good at the controls so I would frequently fall into rivers and such

>>9398401
Rented this game as a kid, and also had a friend with the GB version. N'es version is the best

>Irish video games
I don't want to know

>>9408495
I had a deck for the card game of this, never got to play the GBC game though.

This game sold so poorly.
It became freeware.
The source code is GNU.

>>9394642

>>9407330
It's fake.

>>9397753
>computational biologist
So he gets paid to play Spore?

I have no idea if a single person outside of Germany played these games, but the Clonk series is pure Kino Eurojank and they are all freeware.

>>9394642
I still prefer Monster Munch on the CDi

>>9395725
I owned Stargate. Picked it up in some bargain bin back in the day. Me and my friend loved it and I never hear anybody talk about it anymore.

>>9394642
Two Tenkaku is a weird as shit shmup in some dark futuristic Japan atmosphere, the Japanese salary men were definitely on some shit making this. Awesome FMV scenes, but needs rapid fire.

>>9395470
>treasure game
>obscure or unplayed

its a really good, really HARD score attack game
runs like ass but I find it very addictive

I collect obscure PS1/Saturn games from Japan that nobody's ever heard of... and I'm an X Japan fan.

WEEKEND (WEEKEND)

>>9408495
This got a saturday morning cartoon in like 2006. Must have been really desparately trying to grab some of that TCG market share

>>9409631
Played a little bit of Clonk stuff.
Fun, but controls are something you need to get used to I feel.

is that a PAL box? with the embossed playstation branding?

>>9411224
It's fake.

>>9411221
Clonk Rage has greatly improved controllability compared to the older games, also free.

>>9411224
PAL PS1 games came in custom cases because they had to fit huge manuals in several languages.

>>9407330
What's wrong with Irish games?

>>9410737
Have you ever considered the reason they make things like this is because they're not on anything? The west has always had access to psychoactive drugs but doesn't produce anything like this, and still doesn't.

Porsche Challenge PS1. Tough as nails with a funky soundtrack and great lighting but I never see anyone talking about it.

>>9411254
Ah Speed Freaks.
The other-other kart game of the fifth gen. It wasn't bad, but it was essentially the PlayStation's equivalent of Diddy Kong Racing. Lots of tracks that looked fine and, but weren't anywhere near as interesting or creative as CTR or MK64.

>>9411254
>>9411305
I "replayed" it (I say that because while I had it as a kid I never remember playing ir, my uncle had a demo and my sister bought it) and while it was decent fun it was no CTR in my eyes. Also fuck those challenger races, that robot can rot in hell.

>>9411252

>>9394642
Mr Tayto is based

>>9411276
This was incredibly popular at the time and was the "go-to" driving sim game for the PS1 until Gran Turismo came out, and completely overshadowed it.

>>9411237

>>9394693
My brothers rented this when I was like 3 or 4. I never could find the game for purchase since.
It wast until like a year ago I bought a flash cartridge and a real N64 and actually played it end to end.
Definitely had its issues. Early build is no joke
