You play some weird games mate!!

Haha. Or I just find weird screenshots. ;)

 

 

Since none of the guesses are correct Peeps is none the wiser, here are some hints:

 

026 - This game is named after a type of dance.

029 - A previous guess for this screenshot was very close.

035 - One of the best RPGs of all time. You play as the dead-looking guy in the second screenshot I posted.

036 - This game is based on a well-known license. There's a sequel of sorts on the horizon.

You're absolutely correct. :smile:

 

I almost guessed Mass Effect, before realising that Mass Effect 2 was already there.

 

26. (Random guess based from the clue but pretty sure it's wrong based on the image) Contra.

26 - Grim Fandango?

Yes! I'm surprised no one guessed this sooner, but maybe I'm the only one who's still haunted by the game's nightmarish rendition of the living world.

Mass Effect is basically BioWare making a Star Wars game that they own, so you wouldn't have been too far off. :indeed:

 

 

That just leaves screenshot 35, which I was afraid no one would recognize, but I had to throw the game in there because I love it so much. It's an RPG released in 1999 for the PC, if that helps. Oh, and it takes place in a lesser-known Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting.

35 - Planescape: Torment

It is. You always swoop in and guess screenshots when I need you, Olly. :smile:

 

I'm still haunted by the game's control scheme.

Haha, I was recommending the game to a friend just the other day, and then I ended up ranting about the controls for five minutes. It's still a fantastic game, though.

 

 

The scores at the moment:

 

Jonnas: 3

Cube: 2

jayseven: 2

Olly: 2

Dog-amoto: 1

MadDog: 1

Sméagol: 1

 

For those interested, all twelve games this round had a 9+ average rating on Game Rankings, so when I called them critically acclaimed, I meant it. ;)

Woot! Trippled my score in one round! :P Pretty sure I've only gotten Magnus's right so far. I check this thread far too much considering how shit at it I am. I shall do a round in the future of my favourite games and see how they fare :P
