Title: Acclaim and Iguana Games
Post by: Duke64 on August 25, 2015, 08:48:37 PM
Of course we like all of the Turok games :) but there are some other games with Acclaim that were pretty memorable to me what about you? Feel free to post pictures or videos if you wish to.

Here is some other games I liked:

Double Dragons
Re-Volt
Extreme G
Shadow Man
Fur Fighters

I played even more of them to pretty much all of them before not on purpose either. I don't think I could pick a favorite though but I would like to note Fur Fighters was pretty awesome.

Some Iguana games I liked was:

NBA Jam!
The Pirates of dark Water
NFL Quarterback Club
South Park

I don't know about you but I remember this a hole lot on video games different kinds of games to.

I didn't even know Acclaim was on the Double Dragon series cool :) Didn't they also port Mortal Kombat 2 ? I played a bit of WWF Warzone in 98 back when I was into wrestling. That there was a fun game to.

Wow I actually do remember a ton of games with the Iguana he was so cute to me :) I mostly remember Re-Volt! This was the RC racing game I forgot all about it till now. I googled it and there is quite a bit of interesting stuff for it even an online mp. And you can customize cars and a lot of cool stuff.

Oh yes my brothers used to play this left and right I had no idea it was Acclaim seriously. Its a great classic game I think its on steam to :)

Re-Volt was great and people still play, it has a mp also. It even has a car modeler and track maker though.

I frigging loved Shadow Man, and Fur Fighters is one of the main reasons I miss my old Sega Dreamcast.

Also the Iguana is easily one of the coolest looking mascots ever. Shame he never got his own game. Hey, if Night Dive's Turok 2 port has multiplayer and supports modding, someone should totally make the Iguana a custom skin.  :D

Thanks Adon this was the most interesting part even though we already knew the info, its kind of ironic to read it now days. 

"Gause had actually worked on the first ever South Park game — Acclaim Entertainment’s 1998 first-person shooter for the Nintendo 64, based on the Turok game engine."

Looks like a nice magazine though I don't think I have seen that, I wonder if there is an English version to. I seen the comic for sure though I want it :)

Since I posted the video on the Night Dive thread, I will put the picture here I made this pic a bit ago now though :)

Also, I have a PC version of Re-Volt somewhere. I remember it being quite fun. I also remember the vehicles being shinier than the N64 pictures.
