It was HD Fury, but I suppose I didn't really give any clues for the Fury part.  So yes :)



So I'm a day behind. This means I'll post two hints and post them later tonight (well, tonight over here anyway). But first things first:



#10 - Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 and it's two expansions 'Wacky Worlds' and 'Time Twister', has given me hours upon hours of creative moments. I've built so many theme-parks with this game, it's uncountable. Some I finished, some I didn't. Some were simple, others I went all out with the decoration objects. That's the best thing about this game, you can build everything. Everything you have in your mind, you can build. Sure, it's a fairly old game, so you have to have a little imagination, but no game has ever come closer to realizing my own imagination as this game has. Gameplay is so unbelievably simple, anyone can pick this up and play. That's why I still play this game regularly to this day. While almost all other games have been reduced to memory, this game lives on. Reminding me that 'gameplay' really is the be-all and end-all.

#9 - ?

This old game looks way different, improved, than the first game in this series. It is also still a very well known game and often goes head to head with another game in the series (it's successor) in the discussion 'which is the best?'.

#8 - ?

In this 3D game, most objects, including the characters, are actually 2D cardboard cut-outs! But this system was supposed to be the first system to do full 3D graphics!



#7

Tomb Raider


Beginning in 1996, video game enthusiasts for the first time had a choice of consoles that not only represented cosmetic and hardware differences, but which supported software with thematic differences. Those who gravitated toward the N64 had family-friendly games likes Super Mario 64 and Pilotwings; those who were developing a taste for more mature content found on the Playstation Resident Evil and, a few months later, Tomb Raider. With its action-packed globetrotting storyline, its fearsome enemies and its brash, brainy, and buxom heroine, Tomb Raider was emblematic of a new generation of software that introduced more bullets, more blood, and more breasts, but which retained all the best elements found in action-adventure games.



Clue for #7:

I just mentioned it in my review of Tomb Raider. And it sure as hell isn't Pilotwings.

Number 9 is correct!

Number 8 isn't much harder .

7. One of the first epic handheld exclusives. This game really defined the Gameboy, and it showed that a successful handheld doesn't have to be just a simple puzzle game.....maybe mobile games will follow this path. I hope they do.

Pokemon Red/Blue?

YES Pokemon really defined what a handheld game should be like. I don't think we have seen any handheld top its sales since.
