Pretty common on the internet, but no one in my city even knows what Metal Gear or Fire Emblem is.

Actually, now that I think about it, if we're only counting people we know IRL for who have played the game, I could say almost every game I own, even really popular ones like Doom, Touhou,Final Fantasy, and Okami, I could even say Ninja Gaiden (original trilogy on NES/Famicom), Mega Man, and Bubble Bobble. Most of the people I know IRL are casual as heck and don't go any further than playing MC, CoD, and Slender.

Another obscure game I've played is Nosferatu on SNES

the only other person I know for sure who played Glover was Joe...I mean, yeah...it's a game that several have played...but it's still incredibly obscure and lesser-known.

Watch as 90% of the people reading this post have played it.

If it was an old FPS game from the doom era, then I have played it.
What about PowerSlave, then?

Oh god Glover.

So many bad memories with that game.  Every single time I'd go to try it again, I'd be optimistic, "Oh, I was probably just too young to understand it's mechanics and play it properly."

Nope.  I'm just bad at it.

So here's a little something

Gruntz
for PC
(click to show/hide)
I was trying to remember what the name of this game actually was 2 years ago and then I figured it out and I started playing it again
then I stopped and I still haven't beaten it yet so I might start playing it again

so basically, Gruntz is some sort of strategy puzzle game where you lead these little goo dudes (Gruntz) places so they can find the Warpstone and bring it back to their King
and uh that's really it for the story mode
there was a multiplayer mode but I don't really know
I played this game when I was like 5 or something

these linkz explain some basic mechanicz of the game
(the site itself is also really old; established sometime in 2003, and somehow it's still going, kind of)

Witch & Hero.

Super simple RPG Action game on the 3DS for $4 that got brutal reviews for being super simple, and apparently being super simple makes it a horrible game.

It's $4 what do you expect?!

There's a demo on the eShop go get it.

Yet people somehow praise Pushmo.
Seriously, how can people like such a boring game. I bought Pushmo because I saw the high ratings (they were higher than my favorite 3DS games) and when I played it, it was beyond awful, it was redundant, it was boring. Anyways, enough of that rant. Still though, it's amazing how people like Pushmo and don't like the game you've mentioned. It's such a world we live in, isn't it?

Oh, I've played the demo. It's actually kinda fun. Well, up until you max everything out and OHKO everything in sight :I
But I liked the game, it was a little unoriginal imo, but hey, isn't everything unoriginal now a days?
It was still fun, and I've never seen similar game play to this anywhere before. Although it gets boring after a little while.

On the Colonel Rating Metre (CRM)
I'd give it a 3.5/5 (Slightly above average)
Not, bad, but Slightly good.



Also, CutStuff Zombies kinda counts since I tested it out a bunch before, and I hella know noone touched CSZ before. So I won the thread :I

You can only level up so far in the demo, and I admit, the game suffers from the fact that you'll need to grind, especially later.

But for $4?  I think its excellent.

Finally found out what that stupid obscure game that I mentioned back here is.

Gateworld. And after replaying it myself after so many years, I can say without a doubt that it's total shit. The level design means that you're blind for the most part, with all sorts of dickmoves in place that kill you immediately with absolutely no time to react.

(Note: The music in that video is not how I remember it at all, because it's made of shitty SoundBlaster farts. The standard Windows MIDI soundfont produces 'better' results, although it's still pretty crappy.)
