These things always age better in your head don't they. Although how could I have forgotten 2:18 ()

This thread hasn't been used in a while!

I'm trying to remember a PC game from the late 90s. I'm pretty sure backgrounds were pre rendered with a 3D character to move around. I remember you could set your mood or something between happy, angry and annoyed/grumpy and that changed how you interacted with objects/people. For example, I vaguely remember going up to a bowl of water when happy and the guy washes his face and if you change it to grumpy he splashes the water out.

Other than that, I don't remember much. Everything was yellowish, so maybe it was set in a desert or something? I'm pretty sure you start off in a fort or something because I also remember attacking a friendly guard and then getting killed. If anyone has any ideas let me know. I'll try and remember more...

Still looking for this, still haven't found anything...

[hudson]

Was it a Point and Click game?

[mekanor]

To be honest I can't remember. I'm pretty sure it was, but I can't be sure.

Little Big Adventure maybe?

[capcom_suicide]

Arcade game of the 80's where you were a handglider and had to land on colourful Islands for point. Anyone?

Googled my question and finally found it! Fast Freddy

Little Big Adventure maybe?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I checked it out and its not that. Same idea though, setting your behaviour as agressive, happy or something else... It may not have been a point and click at all.

It's driving me mad! I'm pretty sure the game starts with you waking up in bed, maybe with your wife next to you? I think it's in some sort of barracks or fort as you get called out by your commander. You then head down to talk with the commander and maybe a blacksmith or something? I remember that is the point where I tried to attack someone in the fort and a guard (or maybe the commander?) shoots you with a bow and arrow and says "how could you".

The only other thing is that I can remember thinking that the characters looked like the ones in the game 3D Movie Maker. It wasn't a cartoony game at all so maybe that's just what 3D models looked like in the late 90s.

See the announcements / banners thread for a small game I'm playing about guessing the banner.

Not quite a 'name that game' request, as I can read the names on the boxes, but I can't find any info on these games after a quick google.

Solar System Forces Series No.1: Solar System Forces


Solar System Forces Series No.3: Operation Maul.


Solar System Forces Series No.4: Commando Team.



I LOVE the boxart, just interested to see some screens or a gameplay video.

Here's the ebay auctions for them, with extra photos.

bit late but...

I checked and they aren't in the TOSEC tape set for the M5.
You can see some of the known JP releases here - and some tiny screenshots/descriptions for a few cart games. The wiki has them listed as "Simulation games" so it's likely that the covers are more fun than the games themselves

[acidbearboy]

Cheers, never even heard of the Sord M5 before. Would only have been buying for the boxart even if I had have bid.

Trying to put the name to a game I used to play in the pub in the 1980's & almost got banned because it got to the point I was only buying a pint and putting in 10p and the one game/pint would last all night, I clocked it on at least two occaisions.

Basically a rail maze game in a cocktail cabinet, from what I can remember yellow tracks on a blue background, similar gameplay to this;

It wasn't Super Locamotive by Sega, was it?
