Okay... identify the game the screenshot came from, then post your own! Please only post screenshots you've taken, JPEG and 640x480 or smaller, and not if there's one that hasn't been answered already. And try not to be too horribly vague, for example, your DBP project that nobody's played would be totally unfair .



So, what's that game ?

No, no, no, no. Getting sort of close. It's a less known game.

(Hint: There are game database sites where you can browse games of the genre this appears to fall under, or even search 'top-down' games and the like, that contain screenshots)

Piccys are gone but had a look earlier and was confused at seeing lots of tomatoes rampaging and top right map in a 'ring'

So, is it anything like revenge of the killer tomatoes or lord of the rings???

No, no, no -- c'mon guys, we're gamers here !

But since the shot's down I'll give it away. Magic & Mayhem: The Art of Magic. Bethesda Softworks, 2001. Relatively obscure but you can still find it in bargain bins and there are reviews for it around the web.

So now post yours...

(you have to copy and paste into the explorer otherwise the crappy host won't display the picture)

Anyway the winner gets a lifetime supply of dr.pepper and maryland cookies.

You just broke two rules ...

Quote: "And try not to be too horribly vague, for example, your DBP project that nobody's played would be totally unfair"


Please resize the screenshot or remove the link, I put the image size limit on for a reason!

Damn these crappy hosts! I'll need to get myself some real hosting soon otherwise probably kill myself or someone else.
Preferably someone else.

Try this, it's my own slow frequently downed server. Atleast no 404.

I'll throw in a bag of freshly squeezed cucumberjuice aswell for the trouble.

@mouse- sorry for the first rule...because my game is in 640*480 i thought the screen shot would be also //anyway edited...

but as for this rule
Quote: "And try not to be too horribly vague, for example, your DBP project that nobody's played would be totally unfair""

my game has been in the WIP section for a week or two now..so people have played it...

Actually it's The Last Ninja 4 that will hopefully be release soon :/
Could've just as well been ninja gaiden or shinobi since they all look the same

Raven: Could it be lost legends? If it's FF then i wouldn't know anything about it..

Manticore Night: Heroes of might and magic?

Nope not Final Fantasy... i know atleast one member here will know what it is but if he'll reply who knows.

Not a clue about Manticore's, my brother will know though.
Looks a lil like 'Magic the Gathering'

Bear, erm you've gotta be joking that's just ridiculously simple.
C&C Generals ^_^

Anime i know what yours is but i'd have to check gamespy for the name, that dumbass Square-Enix game iirc. A pathetic attempt at RPG crossed with Mechs... probably trying to be gundam hehe (but that's a god aweful anime)

I was gonna say it looked like a C&C game...

Well now Raven's is the only one left... I know basically nothing about anime RPGs (and am content with that) but I've checked and it's not a zelda/ff game, so it beats me.

Raven's looks like a mix between Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. But since it's neither, I have no idea.
