Both correct. I'm sure you guys know what to do..



Oh and Ford, Tyrian is really excellent if you like those sorts of games. Lots of humor, fun, challenging, [Positive trait #897 not found], really worth the playthrough.


New sets of hints tomorrow.
Six prizes left to be won, plus one bonus courtesy of enaher.

ENDGAME MODE - All bets are off.

Okay guys, time to get rid of those last few prizes.

Rules Change:
1) The amount of prizes each person may win is unlimited
2) You may enter three times per day.


Hints List:

#21 This magical game developed by Moonlite Software came out in 1994.

#22 This '92 DOS-based ARGO Games/Software Creations game was a remake of Paratrooper.

#24 This '94 game was developed by P-Squared Productions, published by Safari, and distributed by Epic Megagames. If you don't like the sexually suggestive and coarse language, there's an option to censor it, you little Kr'r'rox! Released as freeware in 2007.


#25 This bumper-cars style game was developed by Microsoft and released on the disc with CD versions of Windows95 as a demonstration of the "advanced" multimedia capabilites of PCs with Win95. Still available from Microsoft and will run on everything up to and including Windows 8.

#29 Loosely based on a four issue comic book crossover limited series by Frank Miller which was published in '92 and mixed the universes of two cyborg film franchises. Awarded bloodiest game of 1993 by Electronic Gaming Monthly. Terminated or Alive, you're going with him.

#35 This '87 Sega Master System game was originally released as an arcade cabinet in '86 with either handlebars or a full sized dirtbike controller. The game has been described as essentially the dirt version of HangOn. The SMS version is also available on the Wii Virtual Console.



BONUS:
(Thanks Enaher for the game code)
This bonus is for an Origin copy of Dead Space 1. This is the only prize available for the bonus.

Identify the game in this Clue:
This 1999 game, developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo, is a four-player fighting game, with characters from many different Nintendo franchises with each character retaining a specific weapon or attack from their own game. The game was a hit, selling over 4.9 million.

I remember that game included in the W95 disc (among other stuff like this). Hover, if I don't recall wrongly.

The music's from the level Industrial St. on Genesis, which is probably why it sounds different than you remember. Shoot me a PM for the prize

Number 21 is Hocus Pocus

Both games I was way to young to play but I do know they are probably as much fun as me running around the southern part of Illinois playing them.
This counts for two posts to be fair.

Since it was Origin and only one prize, wanted to make it pretty darn easy. I mean I damn near plagiarized the whole thing from wikipedia

its obviously super smash bros

I put alot of time into that game, and it gave me alot of beatdowns in return

still I wish you used zelda: The Ocarina of time instead, that was probably one of the most time wasting games ever made as everyone spent tons of hours looking for the triforce and it wasn't even in the game, but it was a good game.

Yup, but what about it?

I don't have the experience to describe Ocarina of Time. I only ever played it for about 10 minutes on a buggy as hell emulator, unfortunately. When you don't have an n64 of your ow,=n, and only get to play it at friends' houses, you usually end up playing Smash Bros.

I'll send you the code here via PM.

Got a Wii? You can get it on Virtual Console. I've beat it on N64, beat it on Wii, and beat it on emulator. Excellent game as is Majora's Mask.



Audiosurf disappoints me. All my music is on my server and everytime I try to point directly at the file on the server, it crashes.

Audiosurf on PC is more full-featured than Audiosurf on Zune HD though.


BTW, that Goldeneye video is awesome.

I don't, and have never owned any nintendo consoles. Don't ask why, that's just how it worked out.

Oh yeah, I've put hours into that as well. Rest assured

EDIT

I don't consider a gameboy a console. It's a handheld. I suppose that's a subset of console though. Semantics lol

Yeah, I had a GBC (still do). I haven't used it in probably 9 years though. Have a linux-based handheld that emulates it just fine (along with SNES/SMS/SMD[genesis]/NeoGeo/etc etc and even ALMOST playably emulates the PS1)
