1. Tomba
Look he's about to fuck a pig, that's amazing! All I had of this game was the demo, just the demo and I played on it for hours. Demo's (if you were born after 1994) were designed to give you a taste of what's to come for the game. You would get a disc with 6 to 8 playable demo's with the monthly playstation magazine. Tomba was one of them and it was literally a 1/4 of the game. I recently downloaded the Iso for the game on my psp but the bastard thing had some code missing so when I entered some part of the world it would freeze on the loading screen. But mark my words, as God, Lucifer, Gilgamesh and Kylie Minogue I will at some point complete this game!
Look! He's actually fucking it!
That's how you killed them!
Best game ever.
2. Broken Sword
Another demo that would haunt my dreams! Back when I was 7 the idea of point and click was unknown to me, it was alien, occult even forbidden. I was naturally afraid of such an otherworldy game. But then I was enlightened, I clawed out of the primordial sludge with Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars as my grip that guided me and pulled me out of the darkness. I was awakened to such a colourful, quirky, funny and tense adventure. The playstation demo was only short but it really captured my interest. Alas it was a tale of me finally getting my hands on a copy later in my life. This time for the PC only to be denied by an act of god! My laptop overheated and destroyed my save file. Suffice to say I couldn't be bothered to start again until I had completely forgot the whole adventure and would discover it again at some point were it would be liking playing the game anew. My only worry is will this time come before the icy grip of death...
3. I am ashamed, it's Resident Evil 1.
Argh! The memories.
I know, I know! Caste your unforgiving looks elsewhere, I have enough shame gorging on guilt-filled heart then to have your stares burrowing into my brain, nowhere else to go except my soul! When I was only a lad, it must have been the first few months since my father bought the playstation and I opened the then current playstation magazine to see a piece on Resident Evil. The idea of the zombie was given to me, like an angel descending from the heavens to impregnate me with God's will. Will being the love of killing zombies that is! I poured over that article for months going onto years the pictures engraved in my mind. I was too young to buy it, and my father wouldn't. Not because of it being too gory or may damage my mental health or anything but because he didn't think it was good...YOU SEE FATHER! YOU SEE WHAT YOU DID TO ME!
Anywhoo. I actually bought it when I was older and super backwards compatibility (fuck you xbox) gave me the chance to complete it. Now unlike resident evil 2 and 3 and 4 and 5 and 6 etc. this game was actually a challenge and scary! Obviously the scariness was something attributed to psychological thing I mentioned before. That being said I was never able to complete it because I was afraid of dying, I would get lost in this big old mansion and suddenly a hunter would pop round the corner and PUFF I would have no head, then start the horror again. It just wasn't good for my nerves.
Seriously who was this? It wasn't Chris,
both ID Card Chris and Full Motion Film
Chris, don't look like him.
So in conclusion these are the three games I need to complete before I die. If I don't believe me when I say I will kill myself.
