Or better known as Solstice II in EU.

No, it was Equinox over here too. Check out the absurd box art!
At least the US box somewhat represented what was in the game. The Pal box? Not so much!

Cleopatra Fortune. By Taito and Natsume.

I don't know what to think of this game anymore.
When playing it on the Taito Legends 2 collection on my PAL PS2 is the very epitome of "It's so broken and mediocre it's fun".
I tried to compare if MAME does a better job at emulation than Taito's official PS2 emulation and I found out that ... the game is kind of not as good.

Ultimate Fighter?

Yes. Freakin' YES! I used to play the tournament mode for hours with some of my friends, hell I even played that game for hours by myself. Wonderful story mode, a really unique counter and critical system, just a really out-there and great game.

The story mode was more of a beat 'em up with tournament fighter sections for the bosses. Oh and transformations complete with laser swords so you could fight against the power rangers from hell.

Good times.

Man i've never seen so much praise for this game. Most of the things in game were never explained especially combat wise. I did play some tournament mode back in the day though. Still i rented it more than once so in a way i "liked" it.

A strange puzzle game that sucked away hours of time at my friend's place. Nobody else seems to remember this, although I know that I'm not the only one who's played it... right?

What I remember most about this game was the awful music.

Edit:
Jesus Christ he looks like this idiot on that box art.

I don't think you'll ever see this much praise for that game anywhere else, lol. I agree, the game's advanced mode was a little hard to figure out at first but it also had the simple mode that resembled standard tournament fighters a little more. There was also that option to play the boss fights RPG style. I remember the game being blindingly hard for me at first but I just powered through and mastered it.

I suggest you revisit it sometime, especially if you like beat 'em up/fighters, it's definitely one of those hidden gems :)

Well i made my buddy playthrough it, ofc we mostly made joke but he still finished it. Its one of those games that was changed to appeal more to the audience outside of Japan. Just look the Japanese version called "Hiryu No Ken" the characters are different looking.

This. Outside of the internet, I don't know anyone who's played this.

Damn, what a great retro game. It's like GrandTeft for your NES.

Anyone remember the PC game Monster Truck Madness? The original one?

I have fond memories of it. It's one of the few racing games I actually like.

One game that no one I know in real life knows about, and almost no one I know on the internet plays, would be Hexen. I love Hexen, it's a dark fantasy FPS based off the Doom engine, as well as an indirect sequel to Heretic.

It's a great game, if only there were more players

If it was an old FPS game from the doom era, then I have played it. Especially when it was off the doom engine. :ugeek:
