Let's truly weed out the underage millennials from this board.
Do you have any memories of the FMV game craze of the (mostly) 90s?
>>339488330
No, my parents only bought me good games because they loved me.

>Do you have any memories of the FMV game craze of the (mostly) 90s?
ignoring it?
sherlock holmes for sega cd was pretty good but i could never get through the whole game without the system locking up.

I GIVE UP, I GIVE UP DON'T SHOOT
I wish these post 95 kids would have a name for their generation already. They're not millennials.
I never played Phantasmagoria but I remember thinking the FMV was neat. I grew up playing older adventure games like Kyrandia and the Space Quest series.
I remember the harvester
>>339488330
I remember a western style FMV game where you could even shoot people with the mouse, and then the game played the part of the movie as the guy died. Had some fun with it.
Played Swat 4 or something like that, sucked amazingly at it
>>339488330
>DAE WATCH RESTSUPARE :^^^^) ?

Thank god no. But thanks to the internet I can watch them now on youtube and just laugh at them.
>>339488862
you wanna laugh? watch "Sewer Shark"
and then pause to reflect on the fact that someone okayed a video game named "Sewer Shark"...in fact, i bet its the only game ever with "Sewer" in the title

>>339488330
I hardly hear anyone talk about this game but I loved it. Especially the music.
>>339488330
Motherfucking Clive Owen and John Hunt in Privateer 2 : The Darkening was the ballsfor some reason I can only remember those two
>>339488817
My grandmother had a bunch of pc adventure games, and darkseed was one of them. I hated sleeping at her house because I'd always look through her games and play some and that one always creeped me out and kept me up at night.
That fucking Phantasmagoria theme.

>tfw nobody else remembers Warhawk
>>339488817
Darkseed 2 is the best video game.Hey, you missed pal/
>>339489096
lol, i feel so old if your grandma had dark seed
i dont think of grandmas as the type of person to see hr giger art and be like "Fuck yeah, cd-rom adventure"
>>339488330
Of course i have memories. they are among some of the creepiest games ever made.
>>339488758
Those classic games had far more gameplay than modern walking simulators.
I remember thinking that shooter Novastorm was okay.
>>339488330
saw phantasmagoria in cex for a fiver last week, feel like a twat for not getting it

You're a fucking idiot bro
Amber: Journey Beyond.
This game isn't FMV, but it was still scary shit. This game has very heavy atmosphere.

You at least would have heard of them even if you hadn't played them, unless you just played fucking Nintendo trash.
>>339489598
DAMN
>>339489385
Yeah I basically lump them all together into Gen Z. The boomers are the worst generation in general but I'm convinced Gen X are the worst parents.
>>339489351
You can get it on gog for about that same price.

>>339488330
I didnt n play any of the FMV games but I played a lot of those shitty dos games. Think my first was some apache commando game where you flew around in a 2 polygon chopper shooting at 1 polygon tanks.
>>339488330
I once based an essay for school about world war 2 on Kane's speeches.

>>339489603
My history with vidya is Megadrive, then PS1, then PS2, then 360, now PC.
Also owned all iterations of Game Boy, Gamecube, PSP, Xbox, but never made them my main platforms.
FMV games look like shit anyway. Just dumb interactive movie bullshit.
Anyone remember Crime Patrol 1?
>>339489202
She always buys games like that. She's really into adventure games and murder mysteries and weird spooky shit. She's got a whole library of games like that.
Gabriel Knight
Gord@k
Casper
7th Guest
Nine
The list goes on.
She also had a lot of bargin bin kids games that were my entire pc experience as a kid.
>>339488330
DUDE
>>339488330
I do, Phantasmagoria was great the second one no so much, but it had some funny moments.
Same with Gabriel Knight
>>339489883
Did she like Kinds quest?
Did she love Cedric the annoying fucking owl?
I HEARD THAT CURTIS
Officer down. BEEP BOOP.
Please switch back to CD1
You may now load your safe.
Please switch back to CD 4
>>339488330
I remember a fuckton of them as Flash games though.
>>339489768
>Swat 5 comes out
>it's cinematic experience
>the circle is complete
I dunno, does Toonstruck count as FMV?
>>339488330
I have a very cherished memory of choosing which woman to make out with. Rachel always. And it took me way too long to figure out the MC was Mark Hamill.
>>339490094
I'm not sure, I don't remember ever seeing that game as a kid, she might have played it, but I don't know. I don't really pay attention to what they play anymore. She doesn't really talk about it or anything, I was just really nosey as a kid.
>>339488330
The console and the games were expensive as shit. No one in their right mind had these games so your thread is irrelevant.
On another note, the FMV craze was the grandparent of where AAA companies ended up going.
>>339489883
dude, your grandma is fucking awesome.
>>339488330
The new Need For Speed game has FMV cut scenes. Makes the game feel kinda retro to me, I loved the FMV stuff on my Mega CD.
>>339490403
>Rocco
sheeeeiit
>>339490403
WHAT THE FUCK
night trap of course.
>>339490582
almost all need for speed games have FMV cut scenes. i think its a long standing tribute to the fact that NFS started right in the midst of that era, and the beginnings of the cd rom era are the beginnings of the franchise
>>339490269
I really miss point and click adventure games like this
>>339490403
who /electrified whore/ here?
i think that game is responsible for 90% of my fetishes.

>>339488330
Yeah I played lots of shitty games on my brothers PC, Under a killing moon was a title that stayed with me ever since
>>339490730
Well, I dunno, point and click still seems to get some pretty solid games but it's also one of the genres I'm probably not really interested in anymore (despite loving them as a kid).

Aw yiss Wing Commander 3
yeah, those were kinda fun ( not the one in your pic)
I remember playing one where you were investigating a murder in a suburb by talking to everyone.
Was pretty fun and good, probably at the end of the fmv craze
>>339490704
ah, I guess thats just my knowledge of Need For Speed games being shit. I played the early ones in the 90's, and then did not really play again until Criterion took over making the games.
I have fond memories of Phantasmagoria, but only because I had no standards back then and much poorer grasp of English
>>339490760
>>339491102
motha fuckin most wanted 2 on PS2 is one of the hottest racing games of all time and nobody ever talks about it. bizarre
>>339491060
It's funny when people talk about the companion quests and shit in Mass Effect like it was an innovation, when that was a direct continuation from Wing Commander - in both good and bad ways.
>>339490582
Too bad the scenes is so nick live action-tier cheesy and very hammy, Most Wanted still holds up
realms of the haunting was pretty great it was just like an old crappy horror movie
>ctrl-f "Tex Murphy"
Wow. You guys are such underage drinking faggots. Tex Murphy games were the fucking shit.
Go back to Call of Halo, you fat fucks.
Anyone played X-Files fmv game on PS1? It was pretty atmospheric
I wish they made more FMV horror games like Harvester and Phantasmagoria/2, those were funky as all hell.
>>339491179
I only played Burnout 3/Revenge during that time racing game wise.
Part of the reason I only looked at Need for speed again once Criterion started making them.
>>339491620

>>339491358
I bought it. Had so many problems finding the key items to continue to the next scene.
>>339491846
Yeah, it wasn't very intuitive, everything i remember is how it felt like a show episode, with mystery and shit.
>>339491358
Had it, loved it, but I remember having lots of difficulty finishing it. I thought it was pretty faithful to the series, never understood the hate for it.
>>339489028
I owned this.
Sega CD's whole thing was pretty much FMV games.
You just made me look up this game
glad to see it's available as WiiWare, I might give it a go
>>339491358
The Resident Evil clone was alright too
![latest[1].png](https://i.imgur.com/VpehT4i.png "latest[1].png")
>>339492092
Eh, there was some really good non fmv stuff. it just seems fmv heavy because fmv games blitzed the start of the console, and then it died so there wasnt a lot of other stuff
>>339489057
great game, the trepidation from being spooked really made it, but the spoopy spirits were a letdown, it was scary seeing your health bar dwindle and hearing the music of a closeby demon
>be walking up tower stairs
>see shadow move
>hory shet
>be spooked
>wait
>cautiously progress up stairs
>expect some bad shit to happen in stairwell
>tension forever
goddamn that game had some good spooks and atmosphere
>>339491028
Man, come on, in today's market where everyone can get a game on a platform this doesn't prove much.
Studios like Amanita actually seem to do them pretty well.
>listening to assorted vaporwave
>this thread comes up
keep the screens going, it fits so well
I remember some sort of highschool football thing on Sega CD that used FMVs.
It was one very strange game.

Gabriel Knight 2 never gets enough love. Really one of my favorite games of all time.
>>339492571
>Man, come on, in today's market where everyone can get a game on a platform this doesn't prove much.
I guess it proves that today's market is full of millenials that don't watch to the end of the video or realize the significance of what they're seeing :\
>>339492368
My local arcade had this game. Played it quite a bit as a kid.
>>339489146
amazing game, always enjoyed it. pretty tough too.
also why the fuck is that youtube image 40 years old
>>339488330
I recently got into fmv adventures. Played the tex murphy series, phantasmagoria and some new ones like contradiction and her story. Recommend me some good fmvs old or new I don't mind as long as they're good.
>>339492856
rich kid detected.
mad dog was always the most expensive machine in the arcade
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn6pOHPCED4
I remember seeing screenshots of this in gaming magazines and wanting it so bad.
>>339488330
anyone can go to the hundreds of internet youtube people and get their "so nostalgic" experience from them. you don't even have to play the games to have a "90's kid" experience anymore, you just live it through 40 something youtube gamer!
>>339488330
there was this one game where you become a cop. the intro was your parents were murdered and you were at their funeral. You sported a mullet. I remember it was a point and click. If you cleaned your gun while it was loaded you die from being shot in the face. Your only surviving family member as your grandma. Shit can;t remember the name of it but I know it was awesome for the times.
Phantasmagoria had the best death scenes ever.
>>339493442
mine had it too faggot
it wasn't expensive in the mid 90s, besides, everyone played it like once and then played TMNT 4 all the way to the end with 3 friends.
Yumemi Mystery Mansion on Sega CD.
There's an extra layer of fucked creepy added with the shitty Sega CD graphics added on top of how creepy AMV shit is anyway
I really miss this bizarre shit the 90's spawned.
>>339493630
ok. on release in 19 fucking 90 it was the most expensive game in the arcade. however i should just assume you were talking about half a decade later for no reason at all?
>>339494252
because all arcade games were expensive
no one would have bought a mcree cab anyway, it was a shit game
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pPQnhhUqtU
Best game coming through.
>>339494916
ah i see, youre not very bright. lets finish our exchange here. no harm done!
>>339495715
Loved that game until I got to the end with that shitty puzzle.
>>339488330
I remember some FMV being used in Escape From Horrorland. The scarecrow and horrors creeped me the fuck out as a kid.
>>339488330
My uncle used to own a 3DO and I think just about all the games were like that.
