I’ll post the next shot in order to move things along -
No More Heroes?
Phantasmagoria?
Correct!
Man, Sierra hyped this game so much pre release as the next big thing. Especially since it was such a huge departure for Roberta Williams. I really wanted to like it, but I found it mostly dreadful. Sierra’s next attempt at an FMV game, Beast Within, was far better. To be frank, I think it has an even better box cover, too, but I couldn’t find a really good shot of it, and I no longer have the box.
I’ve seen this cover so much, but i never would have been able to guess it , as i am still unable to process what it represents or even evokes.
Yeah, for sure. I remembered it instantly from recently flipping through old gaming mags.
Here’s another one.
Freedom Fighters?
Half Life: Opposing Forces
My eyes! The goggles do nothing!
I miss Adrenaline Vault and haven’t thought about the site in many, many years. Now I feel old, disconnected, and sad. Wasn’t their demise caused by hackers deleting all their site data out from under them?
Anyway, my guess is:
Max Payne
Quake 3?
Silent Hill
I feel like with quotes from Avault and Thresh, it’s gotta be a PC game. Probably a shooter…
But right now all I can think of is that the original Hitman had a mostly white cover, I think… so I’ll guess that.
If you want a trip down memory lane, their stuff is archived here:
(Well, I guess it’s just an assortment of Wayback Machine links, but it’s kinda convenient.)
It’s very convenient because they link to backups with all the pages of a given review properly dumped (bunch of retrieves were partial when something went wrong with the server ironically, I gather).
Some dreadful JS leftovers though XD
Silent Hill is a good, but wrong, guess.
Yes to PC game. Not part of the Hitman series.
Thief 3?
Nocturne?
