2). Winner is the only person who can post screenshots OR they can nominate another member.

3). Screenshots must be from Amiga (Obviously) games only.

7). 5 Points for a correct answer, 1 point per day for the poster if his screenshot is not guessed (point is awarded after 24 hours from when the screenshot was posted).

8). League table will be kept in the post directly after this one.

9). Anyone posting screenshots when it's NOT their go will lose a point and the post deleted.

10). If a new game isn't posted within 24 hrs of getting the answer confirmed correct then the player forfeits their go and the previous player chooses who is next.

11). Only one guess per person per hour UNLESS somebody else guesses within that hour AND the poster has to say whether it is/isn't correct.

12). Have fun.

Any rule breaks will result in the go being disqualified and a point deducted from score.

Okay, new pic:

http://i35.tinypic.com/27ycxn8.png

[BrooksterMax]

PGA Tour Golf

[s2325]

Fantastic Dizzy?

[john4p]

No, not PGA Tour Golf again. It's not a Dizzy-game, either.

[TCD]

Damn, I posted a part of that screenshot a while back and I can't remember the name... :nervous

[viddi]

Mhhh...is this the flag of Germany?

[john4p]

Hmm...now that you say it - it looks like it would be two flags, the one above being German.

But I doubt it's really a German flag.


Damn, I posted a part of that screenshot a while back and I can't remember the name... :nervous

Well, if you posted it it shouldn't be hard to find... ;)

[lilalurl]

Graham Gooch World Class Cricket Test Match Special Edition (http://hol.abime.net/pic_full/screenshot/2701-2800/2775_screen4.png)

[john4p]

Actually I got the screenshot from Brian Lara's Cricket (http://hol.abime.net/3992/screenshot).

Seems to be the same game/rerelease.

Your turn, lilalurl.

[lilalurl]

Ahoy matey :)

[s2325]

Discovery: In The Steps Of Columbus?

[skateblind]

obvious guess: Pirates?

[lilalurl]

Prepare the plank for those two gentlemen! They will take a walk to the depths of the Sea of Wrong Guesses.

[lilalurl]

Larger screenshot + small hint: it is an OCS game.

[s2325]

Merchant Colony?

[lilalurl]

No sorry.

[john4p]

Is the screenshot on HOL?

[lilalurl]

Of course :)

[john4p]

It's the famous Polish strategy-game Funturatum (http://hol.abime.net/3603/screenshot).

[TCD]

It's the famous Polish strategy-game Funturatum (http://hol.abime.net/3603/screenshot).

Ah yes, of course... Funturatum. How could I forget about that famous game!
/me has never heard about, let alone played that game...

[john4p]

It was the OCS smash-hit in...1996! ;)
Looks like "Civilizationesque" movement and exploration paired with "Elitesque" buying and trading. Actually could be worthwhile - if you speak Polish.

I don't have to wait for lilalurl's confirmation now, or do I?

[TCD]

I don't have to wait for lilalurl's confirmation now, or do I?

Ants in the pants eh? ;) Normally you should wait for lilalurl, but I guess there's very little doubt that it's not Funturatum. So if you really can't wait, I guess you won't be banned for it :D

[john4p]

Ants in the pants eh? ;)Didn't know this English saying - learned something new, thanks. ;)

[BrooksterMax]

Sorry I don't have access to my home PC at the moment I am travelling on business and won't be home until Friday, so could someone else help me out.

Normally I could probably do one, just not right now! :)

[TCD]

[Graham Humphrey]

[john4p]

[Anemos]

Innocent Until Caught ?

[john4p]

No.

First hint: it's a single player OCS-title from the nineties (199x).

[john4p]

Bigger pic:

http://i36.tinypic.com/2cmlwyu.png

[skateblind]

Is it some martial arts type game? Iron fist? I can't remember the exact name, probably wrong anyway. :(

[john4p]

No, it's not a martial arts game.

[Anemos]

that shot is on HOL?
maybe is the..
Cruise For A Corpse?

[john4p]

that shot is on HOL?Yes (btw., this should be made a general rule for this thread in my opinion).

maybe is the..
Cruise For A Corpse?Sorry, no.

Next hints: it has screenshots (additionally to the "double barrel"-screenshot) on HOL and came on 1 floppy disk.
This nineties' OCS-title was released before 1994. This narrows the possible release-years to 1990-1993.

So for your HOL DB query:

Hardware is OCS
Year released is 1990 || 1991 || 1992 || 1993
Nb of disks (or CD) is 1
Nb max of players is 1
Simultaneous players is 1
Have pic: screenshot yes


Slightly bigger pic:

Year of release is 1990 and the game uses one floppy.

[TCD]

[Predseda]

Great!

http://hol.abime.net/pic_full/dbs/2501-2600/2593_dbs1.png

Okay, next one :

But he'll only have 4 hours to do that. Then anyone can post a new one (first come, first served).

[capehorn]

Go to go to work in a sec but I'm sure I'll be able to find a sneaky few minutes to upload a screenshot.

[capehorn]

Spent a bit of time looking for a screenshot before I left. Got into work late and was greeted by my boss. We were supposed to have a meeting that I forgot all about!

Anyway...

[john4p]

Eww...sorry to read that... :nervous

[capehorn]

Ok, not much love for this image, not particuarly surprising considering...
