Name the Game

[janleht]

Q*bert or Marble Madness?

[AnasAbdin]

The second screenshot looks a like goomba..
Super mario?

[Mandle]

Nobody has it yet so I'm going to compile everything into this post:

The two screenshots:

The hints:

* In the first picture the darker colour is the background.

* I thought the colours in the two pics would be a huge hint.

* I (jokingly) mentioned twice that anyone who guessed it could be shamed for having got it.

Massive Hint:

Spoiler

What does "T and A" usually stand for?

(This hint is googleable in case somebody doesn't know what that stands for: It's the top search result.)

Giveaway Hint:

Spoiler

Whose happen to be those two colours?

I know the pictures are only a small number of pixels, but those small pixel areas have been stared at by many for decades now, so I thought somebody would catch on.

Here's a more obvious version of that hint, which I honestly thought was getting too obvious so I scaled it back:

I know the pictures are only a small number of pixels, but those small pixel areas have been stared at ogled by many male players for two decades now, so I thought somebody would catch on.

If that doesn't tip anyone off then I will start posting other screenies, but I imagine this should do the trick...

[CaptainD]

Still no idea.  But I'm sure someone will put all the clues together.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH MYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDD

It's Tomb Raider. To be more specific, Lara's T & A.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!! It is Lara Croft's T & A from the original Tomb Raider, whose 20th anniversary is this year!

SHAME ON YOU!!! (Hehe...not really: I was expecting someone to get it much sooner, which I thought would have been funny to call them out on... Geez, buncha boyscouts around here...)

Over to you!

[Danvzare]

Ooooooooh, now I see it.

Still, the first result I got for T&A was a female wrestling duo who were represented by red and blue. And it's only now that I understand what you meant by it with regards to your screenshots.

[Cassiebsg]

Never played.
Can we now get a full screen shoot of that soooo famouse screen?

First picture was of Lara's triangular chest.


And the other of her rear end.

Anyway, since we're ogling bodies, how about this?

You forgot Lesbians and Bisexual females, Mandle.

Wow, I didn't remember the graphics being that ugly...

Are those triangular breasts really considered erotic? I'd imagine sex with Polygon-Lara to be more a Prince of Persia like experience with those spikes...

[Cassiebsg]

LOL, thought the same thing...
And honestly, guess I could have continued in all eternity trying to figure out a "popular game, with black background and a white corner"...

Glad I'm not the only one!

[Gribbler]

We're one step from one pixel guessing or "guess what game I'm thinking of?"

[Danvzare]

They once were, yes.
You've got to remember, all graphics back then looked that bad, so everyone sort of imagined it looking better than it actually was.
Like you said, even you didn't remember the graphics being that ugly.

We're one step from one pixel guessing or "guess what game I'm thinking of?"

More like half a step if you ask me.

AHEM, anyone care to venture a guess? Let's keep the thread going, please.

[Mandle]

Sorry everyone: I was trying for something a bit different and that I thought might have been worth a bit of a laugh about at the end of it...

Like most attempts at such an endeavor it did not work out and was not very much fun for most of the players...

This happens with both forum games and actual games all the time but, every now and then a true gem of an idea appears from something unlikely...

So: I have learnt my lesson with this attempt, but do not feel discouraged to keep trying.

At least from the OHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOODDDDDD I got from the winner I feel one person got some fun out of it.

Now on with the game!

I found it fun. Just a bit too difficult.

Hmm... is it Resident Evil?

[Mandle]

Left For Red Dead Redemption Space?

[Amayirot Akago]

Neither so far.
