Is that Elona? I think I recognized it due to the Japanese that got in my way when I meant to try it ...

Although as far as I know it has an english version, that is definitely Elona. ^_^

I wonder how well known (or obscure?) this German console game is ...

The developer may not be that known, but it was published by JoWood and Capcom, and did do fairly well - so it should not be too obscure.

Let's hope so. After all, that kat is supposed to be legendary. ;)

Uh, someone guess the game already, m'kay? It's not as if it the hints are very subtle. ;)

Legend of Kay?

Yup, your turn! :)

Alright lets make it easier than an obscure German game..

Splinter Cell?

The fact that I recognize that image worries me.
Operation Body Count.

Correct!
Amazing innovative game, way ahead of its time.

Good band too.

Okay they weren't but the mention brought back some fond memories.

Ok, time for a tricky one. Names have been removed to protect the innocent (or something like that).

Those are the ugliest soldiers I have ever seen in my life. If my dog looked anything like those guys I'd shave his ass and teach him to walk backwards.

I especially like the guy with the face paint that looks more like a severe skin condition. God knows if you are running around in broad daylight devoid of trees you want to make sure you have your face paint on. :P
