I remember seeing Night trap in 1992 I think and thinking that it looked awesome. I never played the game though, I was mainly impressed by the graphics. Still it's not freeware afaik so why post the request here?

Any of Artworx Strip Poker games... and don't try and tell me in the late 80's/early 90's you never played one of these and thought it was brilliant, especially because you thought that the graphics were "so real!".

Can't think of any others of the top of my head for PC... might as well throw in most amatuer games in there though, as I am an independant enthusiast.

Console/Arcade/Other
Alex Kidd in Miracle World
Shinobi
Wonderboy/Monsterland
Phantasy Star
Space Harrier
Sonic
Mario Bros (atari)
Super Mario Bros
Tennis
Excitebike
Enduro Racer
Castlevania
Afterburner
The entire catalogue of the MB Vectrex system
The entire catalogue of the Colecovision system
Final Fantasy
Ninja Gaiden
Strider
Blood Brothers
Vendetta (an uncensored version)
Streets of Rage
Final Fight
Street Fighter
Donkey Kong
Pacman
Space Invaders
Galaga
Galaxian
Choplifter
R-Type
F-Zero
Super Fire Pro
Star Wars (the old arcade version)
Missile Command
Many of ATARIs games (minus ET, of course)
Space War
Rampage
Rampart
Legend of Zelda
Paperboy
Pong
Punch Out
Pro Wrestling
Gauntlet
Front Mission
Die Hard
Golden Axe
Fatal Fury

My mind is drawing a blank now... i'll probably add more later.

But my point is... Ecco the Dolphin is NOT a classic. It sold well, but it is in no way, a classic. Many of the games i've listed are classics. If you don't think so, or you've never even played them, then you're not a true gamer.

No one's stopping you from getting the game for yourself, but since it isn't freeware it won't be added to the site, and there's an end to this discussion, really.

If you want to play a game just because it features fit woman then there are specialist websites just for you, this is not one of them.

Come on guys, there is no reason to pick on Oddworld just because he likes a game you don't. I'll remind you that many freeware games are considered crappy by lots of people, most of whom have never played them.

That said, this game isn't freeware and probably won't be on AR untill at least 2042, when the international copyright expires.
THANK U FOR BEING NICE! everyone else is picking on me, o yea, and i do want it, beacause, it has hot chicks! GIGGITY!

Precisely. I would've replaced it with "bovine faeces" or something similar, but I'm not a mod in this section. I don't find it personally offensive, but others might. This is getting off topic though - I think it's pretty unlikely we'll end up hosting a mediocre non-freeware game Oddworld - this is a freeware site (and we'd like to think it's one with some standards :))

But there's often so many more harmless alternatives of expressing exactly the same thing. For example you could go Victorian and talk of "confounded nonsense" and "ineffable twaddle". :) So there isn't really the need for bovine faeces, is there? ;)

Not kidding - the forum's supposed to be clean.
No, I mean that you've got to be kidding if you think the word *bovine droppings* is swearing. Thats a joke. :)
