murlis,

Chromadrome 2. A PC game about simply controlling a small blob-thing speeding down a straight path with holes and other obstacles and keeping it away from them. Sorry of a precursor to mobile games such as subway surfer or whatever they are called. Never met someone who heard about it even though it made it’s way onto Steam many years later.

Legacy of the wizard, rygar, cypher (strider)

JustZ,

I remember Rygar.

Scurouno,

Sundog: Frozen Legacy (en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SunDog:_Frozen_Legacy) originally for Apple II but brought to PC. My friend and I spent countless hours roleplaying as Han Solo, trading contraband and pulling bounties. If you want an incredible space trading/combat sim experience, forget Star Citizen, this game is for you!

Whoa I totally played this when I was super little, thanks for the nostalgia hit!

theredknight,

I’ve never met anyone who knows this game classicreload.com/braminar.html

carnimoss,

There was a cover of Radioactive by Marina on guitar I’d listen to in the bathroom at high school but I can’t find it again on Youtube

A-Train DS, or A列車で行こう DS, a Japanese game about managing trains. Basically like Transport Tycoon/OpenTTD, but focuses on Japanese train. It was actually really good, it actually made me obsessed with Japanese trains. Coolest thing about this game is, you can actually “ride” the train you built. It was like a dream come true for childhood me.

Yet, I rarely heard anyone online talks about this game. I really recommend others to play this game… If you can read Japanese as I am not sure that there is English translation for this game…

MiDaBa,

This was released on the original PlayStation and definitely available in English. I remember it being a very cool game.

I know right? There is also the sequel on 3DS and now it’s also on Switch.

There’s also a PC version too

eddanja,

I remember playing Big Sky Trooper for the SNES which was about killing the alien slugs and you had to navigate the solar system.

TheKracken,

The Legend of Alon D’ar. Never talked to anyone who’s played it. I know some people have due to YouTube videos, but it’s not a great game and I ended up beating it because I had nothing better to do.

BlueMagma,

There’s this youtube channel, on which someone does piano fugue improvisations, it is really good, and it has only a few thousand views

Here is an example, but there are more: youtu.be/YLW47a6Jk50?si=6coaJGDotT9B3JU1

There’s also hours long live session during which he improvise many baroque pieces, I listen to it every now and then, and it’s always a blast

MemphisGuy,

I watched Star Blazers every week as a kid.

Captain Zoom in Outerspace

It was direct to TV Galaxy Quest before Galaxy Quest.

frunch,

I’ll throw mine in:

Video games: Weird Dreams and Spectre VR both for PC back in the early 90s iirc

Music: one artist i really enjoy that unfortunately died from covid in 2020 though he was only in his 20s… His name was Cesar Alexandre and i got to know and love much of his work as Lindsheaven Virtual Plaza. In fact, my first thought when i heard the opening track from their EP Daily Night Euphoria was that it would have been a great soundtrack for Spectre VR…

morphballganon,

A board game called Off the Rails. You play as goblins in a mine, and use mine carts to collect gems. It was on kickstarter maybe 5 years ago.

Azurewrath,

A friend and I used to play Liero Xtreme lots when we were kids. I have never seen any mention of that game anywhere on any forum in my years on the internet

I played the heck out of TankPot back in the day. One of the best early games to have a high number of simultaneous multi-player, I think 64, split poverty 4 teams of tanks. Played through the browser, it moved around to different sites a few times over the years and now has its own dedicated site:
