Genres:Adventure, Platform
Themes:Action, Science fiction
Game modes:Single player
Story:Out of This World (Another World in Europe) is a cinematic platformer that uses vector-based graphics and rotoscoped animations to deliver a minimalistic yet expressive visual style. It features a combination of action, platforming, and puzzle-solving mechanics, with a deliberate lack of HUD and textual guidance. Gameplay emphasizes trial-and-error, timing, and exploration, with a limited checkpoint system. In 2005, a homebrew port of the Atari ST version was released for the Game Boy Advance, officially allowed by Éric Chahi to be published with the original assets.Show more

This game introduced incredible animated cinematic sequences to the PC while distributed on a single floppy disk. The pinnacle of multimedia capabilities was sound cards with OPL2 chips like AdLib or Sound Blaster 2.0. At the time, it was the taste of the future.

This was one of my favorite games on the SNES. I think I still have the cartridge! I have both the 15th Anniversary Edition and the 20th Anniversary Edition purchased from GOG and it's really sad that the game no longer works properly. The 15th Anniversary version has some issues with resolution and menu selection and the 20th Anniversary version crashes as soon as you start the second level.
I purchased the GOG version as a backup to my MSDOS PC floppy disk version, in the early days of GOG. Good thing too...I no longer have a functional floppy drive! Another World is a fantastic example of the skills and techniques to tell an interesting story with fun puzzles. The rotoscoped scenes, animation, scenery and sound are the stuff of gaming legend. Someday, I might even get to finish the game!

Indiana Jones' Greatest Adventures
Indiana Jones' Greatest AdventuresIndiana Jones’ Greatest Adventures is a 1994 platform video game released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It is a video game adaptation of the Indiana Jones films Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981), Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984), and Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989). The game was developed by Factor 5 and published by JVC Musical Industries, Inc. The story is told through cutscenes and text and is mostly faithful to the movies. Its release coincided with that of Super Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, also released by JVC and LucasArts and in the same platform style as the Super Star Wars trilogy. A Sega Mega Drive/Genesis port of the game was apparently completed and ready to be released between summer and autumn of 1995, and was reviewed in GamePro (#73, August 1995, rated 3.5 out of 5.0) and in Germany's GAMERS (November 1995 issue, rated 2 (B Grade). Like many third-party titles near the end of the Genesis' life, however, the game was shelved and was never released. The game was re-released for the Wii's Virtual Console service on November 16, 2009 and in the PAL region on April 23, 2010 for 800 Nintendo Points.

Monster Rancher 4
Monster Rancher 4Raise monsters to explore and battle in this PS2 monster raising sim from Tecmo. This game improves upon previous installments by allowing more than one monster to be raised at once, interaction with the main character and the monsters, improved explorations, a customizable ranch, tag-team battles, improved 2P mode, a re-vamped battle system, and more detailed monsters. This game also features the longest most involved storyline of any Monster Rancher game to date. Your goal is to raise monsters to win in-game tournaments, explore for items, and improve your ranch. You can also test your raising skills by battling your monsters against a friend in 2P mode. The game still uses the innovative system of having a player insert music CDs, game discs, or DVDs into the PS2 to be read and used in making monsters. If you have a good sized collection of music, games, or movies, you can have access to a large variety of monsters very fast.
