Ultra obscure games that only you know exist

[Abengoshis]

War of The Monsters.

Ninja'd!

 

[Abengoshis]

I'm probably not the only one that knows of this game but I'm sure only about 10 people know of it.

You know about whiplash? Finally! No one I know has ever heard of that game!

Same! Apart from my brother...we got it when I was 12... he must have been about 10! o.o

I have the original XD

For me, RECOIL (same people as MAG) and Battle Beasts. The former is a Windows 95 exclusive tank game with kick-ass gameplay and graphics, the latter is a Windows 98 exclusive beat-em-up featuring anthropomorphic furry robots that use sewers to get places.

They are both EPIC.

FARMVILLE. Most obscure game ever.

 

[Wrds]

Treasure world. It's a relatively fun game but gets old really quick. Also it's a kid's game so I doubt many people here would have any interest in it.

At least I think it's relatively unknown...maybe I'm wrong.

Chaos Legion seemed pretty understated too.

There is a reason for that. Leave it in its grave where it belongs. That game was absolutely awful, even to to my past self who used to love just about every game he got.

 

[benoitowns]

Did anyone know about this game?

 

[Mochme]

All I can think of is Super robot Taison og saga the endless frontier... its an awsome JRPG for the DS that I dont think was released in Australia so Im one of the only people here to know the awsomeness that is its combat system....

Spoiler: Winback:Covert ops was an awesome TPS back in the day. Before Gears of war came along with it's cover system and fun third person shooting, we had it's distant ancestor Winback. Kick ass game and the mulitplayer was FUN. Me and my Friends rented this game way back when and we all fell in love with it. Too bad no one knows of it.

Spoiler: Bahamut Lagoon, one of my favorite SRPGs. A shame it never left Japan due to some subject matter. You can only play it via emulator so don't be all tight assed about downloading a ROM, it's Squares fault for not releasing such an awesome and fun game. If you like SRPGs do yourself a favor and play it.

The Ogre battle series, just take your pick, all of them seem to have faded into obscurity which is a damn shame. You have that sereis to thank for Final Fantasy Tactics, so show your damn appreciation by playing them, any of them. The Knight of Lodis (for the GBA) is a personal favorite of the series, and if you were as pissed as I was when I played FFT Advanced to find all the spirit and eloquence of the original game absent, the KoL is your game. Story wise it's what FFTA SHOULD have been.

Spoiler: RECCA (ie: Summer carnival 92) is an insanely awesome NES shmup. It's fucking hard, it's super fast, it's fun as hell, and good luck beating it fair. If you ever liked game like ikaruga then you should go play this old timer. Again it's a super rarity as the game was specifically made for a contest way back when so boot up that emulator and shut your self righteous trap.

Wild 9 for the Playstation.

Chameleon twist for the n64

 

[Anticitizen_Two]

I'm probably not the only one that knows of this game but I'm sure only about 10 people know of it.

THANK YOU! I've been trying to remember the name of this game for so long!

 

[Tharwen]

LEGO Rock Raiders, obviously.

My insane playtime on that says otherwise.

 

[Small Waves]

Chameleon twist for the n64

I remember playing that. It was shit.

You're welcome.
I've been trying to find this game again but haven't been able to. That makes me a saaaaaaaaaad panda.

Barkley's Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden one of the best fan created games...ever. Seriously if you like old school JRPG's like Chrono Trigger, play this thing you'll love it. Click the second "Download Link 2" here: http://www.gamingw.net/forums/index.php?topic=68488.0

great lil game
and it always surprises me how few people have played or heard of the neverhood.......

How about this one:

A cross between a card game and a fighting game, to give a rough description. The art direction is solid, and gives a good depiction of underground post-apocalyptia. The story is filler, but collecting the skills and playing both online and offline is rewarding. I was pleasantly surprised to see it in the backwards compatibility list for the 360.

It was fairly obscure, and there are still some people playing it. Very fun game, and there were hints at a spiritual sequel, but Majesco went bankrupt I believe.

Simpsons did it! I kid but its on my xbox hard drive. I got it from a certain website

Dude, I fucking remember seeing that game and saying "this looks intriguing, I wanna try it out"

Is it a good game?

It's great, but the ending is hell'a deppressing...
