Who owns some very weird b-movie stuff too!

"I Live!"

Hopefully I have sufficient rep to enter, if not, that's cool too :)

The only game I would like is Chaser. I remember playing it back when it first was released and quite enjoyed it.

My thing is movies and music, there is so much of both media that have disappeared, due to being niche or new playing formats that have cast the less well known stuff aside.
I still have a shedload of VHS movies that are irreplaceable now, that will never see a re-release in more current formats.
I also have tons of LP's and CD's from bands on independent labels that are now defunct (labels and bands), that I guard jealously and only play them to transfer them to mp3's (thank the gods for LP>MP3 players).

+1 for the giveaway, it's very generous of you Iamsinistar :)

They should dig those out and use the hole to re-inter Jimmy Savile. Ideally packed with badger excrement.

I'm pretty sure that was one of the stipulations in his will.

I Live!
Holy shit Sinistar! That's an awesome giveaway.
Wish I could +1 more than once.

I Live!

Taking a quick look im most interested in the Desperado and Gothic games.

Right now i can't think of a "lost thing" that i wish it got rediscovered .... if i think of something i'll edit the post to include it

Thanks for this great giveaway

I Live! This is very generous of you, and it is always nice to see these games in circulation, thank you.

I am particularly interested in:
Spellforce Platinum
Spellforce 2: Dragon Storm
Spellforce 2: Shadow Wars

The Library Of Alexandria was the first lost thing to come to my mind too, and FearfulSymmetry is right to point out the many other historical documents lost to accidents, neglect, carelessness, or deliberate destruction. So much fascinating knowledge gone for no good reason.

Run, Coward!

Thanks for an awesome Nordic giveaway, IAmSinistar!

His ice axe was found in 1933 at 27760', and people are searching, but no one has ever found... Andrew Irvine's camera.

Did he and Mallory reach the summit in 1924? I'd love to believe it. The film in his lost camera would likely prove it true or false, and according to Kodak, the film should still be in great condition after all these years.

Great selection! It's important to recall that there are some very small things which would have tremendous impact if rediscovered as well.

And as far as "lost tapes" go, while we may lament the Beeb recycling Doctor Who spools, it's nowhere as bad as NASA taping over the original moon landing.

Run, Coward!

Very nice giveaway, Sinistar! +1

As for the conversation topic: I would have liked to see and play the cancelled games of Bullfrog, especially The Indestructibles (1996) & Creation (1997). I do hope that GOG release the rest of Bullfrog catalogue - Hi-Octane (1995), Genewars (1996), Theme Park World (1999), Aquarium (2000) & Theme Park Inc (2001).

Sun Flowered!

While I don't have all of these titles on GOG, I have them all somewhere, so I'll let the others frolic in the pastures of this super giveaway. Thanks for a kick-ass key!

To be self-centered, I wish I could get back the memory card I lost somewhere along Fremont Street from the first year I attended the Burlesque Hall of Fame Weekend as a photographer. The first two nights of images were lost on that card, along with a set of shots with one of my favorite dancer models posing on a couple of vintage cars that were being displayed along the way. When I put in a new card, the pocket that held my case didn't secure correctly, and zing! The whole slew was lost.

Uh, either that or the Library of Alexandria. One of those two.

Run, Coward!

You are most awesome, Sinistar, as always ^__^

Something lost of my own that I'd love to find again is a text adventure game I played about 12 years ago. I can't remember enough of it to find it on a Google search, and what fragments I DO remember are not enough to jog anyone else's memory, either (I've tried.) ;D

I know what you mean. I'd rather like to have my lost Amiga files which I had rescued from Amiga floppy to PC hard-drive, only to have that computer stolen. On the plus side, I still have my programs, music, and artwork from the Amiga, so not all lost, but still it would be nice to have those other files back. On the upside, this was the lesson that got me into backing up my data, and I'm glad I learned it.


Ah go on, give us another try!

Run, Coward!

Besides the Library of Alexandria (my first thought as well), what lost thing would I most like to be rediscovered?

With the caveat that I'll confine it to things that almost certainly did exist, in some form or other (thereby excluding Atlantis):

Okay, I don't think anybody's said this one: the Ark of the Covenant, including all its contents, problematic as its reappearance might be for world stability.

Amelia Earhardt's Lockheed Electra.

Honjo Masamune.

Okay, since you asked~! XD

There was a lot of fantasy and metaphysical-type ideas going on in this text adventure, as well as the symbolic. We play a female character, and we either start on a beach, or in the water, I can't remember which it is. There's a place where we learn how to use our powers if we take the left path where there's a... Tree or tree stump or something? ^_^;

Continuing on that path we come to a tent with a massive spider web in the corner, which we won't go near (if anyone's played it all the way through, that tent is where we will finally come to the end of our journey.)

Exploring the island there's a place with massive trees that we climb, a city that we have trouble entering, another place that we get to by mentally tracing our way through some kind of roots (?) and there is a giant (fish?) tank in there...

Oh, and when we sleep at night, we find ourselves in a place with a red moon (or twin red moons, or one regular and one red?)

Such scattered memories, and I have no idea if anyone else has even played it! What I can tell you is that it was full of fascinating mental imagry, and it was more like an interactive novel than a text adventure game :)
