The Last Starfighter?

[partly]

Ha ha, no, this is live-action.

Hey, that was partly live-action!

Is that the Ralph Bakshi version of Lord of the Rings?

Hmm.. a game featuring the London Underground... the graphic style and icons at the bottom suggest arcade adventure, otherwise I'd possibly take a punt at one of the Renegade games (only familiar with the Speccy graphics of those games so the Amstrad screens might be a bit different, apart from obviously more colourful!).

Grange Hill?

That'd be Winter Events, a game for the Commodore 16

Yup!  One of my earliest gaming memories, multiplayer games on that.  The biathlon was awesome

Your turn.

Not quite Winter Games.  (Sorry but that would just be TOO obvious! )

It is a Commodore, but not the 64... 

It's The Games: Summer Edition, but close enough

Ah man I actually owned that particular game, and I still didn't get it!   In my defence the ST version looked quite different from that (I assume C64?) version pictured. Should have still got it from that second screenie though...



Wow that seems a long time ago now... we used to have huge multiplayer events when my nieces and nephew came round.  I seem to remember that the Hammer Throw did in at least a couple of joysticks!  Was always fun when you accidentally threw it towards the camera and the screen shattered.



Okay, going back even further than that... but on a very similar (yet opposite) theme:

Summer Games?

(Or... Summer Games: 1988 Edition)?

Will definitely be looking into this - thank you so much!

Just to confirm - you are granting free use in commercial as well as freeware games?

["Prominence"]

So, is it "Prominence"?

So sorry I thought I'd answered you already!

[The Force Awakens]

I enjoyed the The Force Awakens (having finally got to see it), but... big finale is to destroy a weapon inside what looks like a Death Star (albeit a bigger version) - AGAIN?!?!?  I mean, really?  Could they not have thought of something else?

There was a lot I liked about the movie, but it did all just feel a little too derivative.

Okay, this one's from a recent release:

[80 Days]

I haven't played it but I've posted about it on my blog a few times so I know the art style well - 80 Days.

America's Next Top Model: Fashion Fail?

Hmm... is it Sabotage?

Strangers on a Train?

A big WELCOME to all our new members!

Hmm.  Graphics style rather reminds me of The Bitmap Brothers but I'm not aware of any vertical shooters they released other than the Xenon games, and it isn't one of those.  The other screenshot is irking me but nothing's coming to mind. 

I'm not getting any inspiration, seems no-one else is either!  Another screenie / hint maybe?
