Seems I got 2 out 9 last time (Child of Eden and Alone in the Dark), other than Crysis 2 which I didn't recognise, I don't know any of the others!
This time...
1) Wordpress? Wii Sports? Some sort of friendly generic UI avatar?
2) Gah, I think I know this. SpaceChem on the C64?
3)
Defcon
4) ?
5) ?
6) Come on Steerpike, that one was never going to get passed me
L4D (Death Toll!) 😉
7) ?
8) A dungeon crawler...
9) ?
I played those stupid Swordquest games trying to get the fizzled Big Prize. Burned Christmas and birthday requests to get 'em.
Unrelated to anything in the thread, the "Sleepers" episode of the show Sanctuary is full of grand screnery chewing after a slow start. Can't recommend the series but when an outraged vampire Nikola Tesla says "You turned my symphony into rock and roll. Canadian rock and roll!" you've got AAA goofy viewing. Rewatched it last night and happily giggled the whole time. How do you take do you capture a vain vampire? Hit him with a car as he delivers his speech. Defenestration also works. Go go "de-vamper"!
grooowrrrr! [menace menace] rrrrowwwr!

- Skype's "Nobody" Icon (captured during a Skype call with MrLipid, who is definitely somebody)
- SCRAM: A Nuclear Reactor Simulator (in honor of Harbour Master's "Where We Came From" series)
- DEFCON (in honor of nuclear war)
- Grant Morrison's Batman: Gothic from Legends of the Dark Knight
- Debra Granik's Winter's Bone
- Left 4 Dead
- Spacewar!
- Phantasy Star
- Hollow Moon (an unfinished indie game powered by the Unreal engine – it was terrifying until the monsters showed up)
And there you go!
Life is the misery we endure between disappointments.
I should have seen the Skype avatar.
Okay, so what have we got this time?
1)
2) It looks like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. again but… Metro 2033?
3)
RAGE
4) This rings a bell…
5) …as does this.
6) Desura? Origin? Netflix? Some digital distribution channel I've never used?
7)
Jean de Florette (one of my favourite films alongside Manon des Sources)
8) Perfect Dark?
9)
Armadillo Run
#9 Is a fantastic toy cum game. Send the guy a couple bucks and buy it. Quite dangerous if you have OCD tendencies as I do. <blink> nine hours spent trying to shave off $1 and missed a wedding/funeral/coverage of zombie with ice cream cones tweeting from Nashua New Hampshire*.
*As far as I know zombies have yet to do so. If they have, I did miss it while trying to save the one damn dollar.

Okay here's my terrible guesses at the new one:
1. Persona 2 or 3?
2. Skyrim seems too obvious and too soon ... Oblivion?
3. Assassin's Creed 2
4. looks like a scene from BG&E but I'm probably wrong
5. ?
6. ?
7. ?
8. jeez that's obscure!
9. Alice: Madness Returns
If being wrong's a crime I'm serving forever
