and...

Monkey Island?

Final Fantasy VII
Fallout (2)

no

TURTLES IN TIME

no

I'm glad there's so many rules to this game, including a smug insulting remark! I'll be sure to pay attention to rule 13 as I play this game. As well as the rule prohibiting images larger than 640x480 or our dialup friends.

What did Squirrel King even do? I think the banned list should be reset per thread.
Also I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess Skyrim.

...you really reported this to the moderators, Tibby?

Yes and? I'm pretty sure immature smug insults are frowning upon here. I've got no problem with him making a game thread, that's cool I'll play. I'll also admit mine was poorly thought out, but that is just childish and uncalled for.
Icewind Dale 1/2 I swear i see snow in that pic.

Better?

Is it a ninja turtle game?

Well personally I don't see the need for that in the first place, but I'll level with you and accept this as "Case Closed", moving on.

No... some of the guesses are in the right genre though

tes 5 lol

someone already guessed that...

Is this I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream?

Full Throttle or Simon the Sorcerer

DIG?

no

I was about to joke that "fallout has already been mentioned," but now that I think about it, is it Wasteland?

Yes they are, fortunately no such thing has taken place here. What happened here was a light hearted joke that you decided to [hug and squeeze and never let go.]

(I have to admit, that was pretty funny)

No, now it's a lighthearted joke, it was something else. But we are past this so please.
Dark Forces...?

Aww Roach you spoilsport, I was so proud of that line =p




My apologies, I didn't realize it had been changed. I'll shut-up now

the thing is how many times have i called tibby "****ing retarded" on this site without him complaining about it or at least without the mods editing it (he may have run crying to mommy on those too)

i'm sure i've said it enough for it to be my new catchphrase

also it's no dark forces... people are getting way too old with their guesses and farther from the genre this game falls into

The Longest Journey?

no

To be fair, I only just 4 days ago updated my contact info, and now I've been getting moderator reports from Tibby since then. For all I know, he's been doing this the entire time, and the admins/mods slowly changed their primary e-mail addresses so they wouldn't have to deal with it...

Neverwinter Nights

nope

Silver
Planescape Torment
Septerra Core
Icewind Dale

It wouldn't happen to be one of the Monkey Island games would it?

no

I reported exactly one post, don't make a grain of sand into a mountain.

Dungeon Keeper?

omgyes...







actually no

I'm starting to see why these threads never last very long.

because massassi isn't as active as it was when i did the first one almost a decade ago

I didn't intend to sound douchey. To explain, a lot of the well known games have already been done, it seems like going back to 8-bit and 16-bit games it's easier to guess what they are because there was a smaller spectrum of releases during that time which allowed the community to play more of them. As time has gone on the spectrum is ******e wide and it's more likely to find obscure games being posted because everything else has been done. But less and less we recognize them. Of course then you have the rising generation that haven't played most of the games we were raised on during the late 80's and early 90's who are less likely to identify the older games.

Anyway, back to the game. Kingsquest 5?

hint... the game was not released that long ago

Witcher 2.
