Most Out-There Videogames?

I tried looking for a thread like this and couldn't find one.

I'm fond of weird shit (see, my recent thread on LSD Dream Emulator) and I was wondering what y'all thought some of the oddest video games out there are. Synonyms here include "bizarre", "weird" etc. Use whatever your definition of weird is. Games need neither be obscure nor well known.

In addition to that dream replicator, I'd also put Yume Nikki and a game I believe is called Revenge Of The Sunfish on that list.

The list can be found here

In before someone else says it: Katamari Damacy.

There was also a semi-obscure Capcom game titled Under The Skin, in which you took control of an alien that could possess living beings to cause chaos (including Jill and Nemesis). Weirdness often ensues.

Oh yeah, can't forget Damacy.

What system is that for (and the other thing, for that matter)?

Eastern Mind Lost Souls of Tong-Nou is a pretty bizarre game, made by the same guy as LSD in fact.

There's also Germs Nerawareta Machi, which I've heard is pretty weird and LSD-like, though it's seems to actually have a story.

Mostly PS systems. There's games for 2, 3, and PSP iirc

Systems, guys, systems.

neo: Referring to Katamari?

2 of Karamari Damacy games are on the PS 2, 1 on the PSP, and 1 on the PS 3.

For the games I mentioned- Tong-Nou is an old computer game, and Germs is for the PS 1.

And that game Under the Skin is for the PS 2.

Killer7?

Wuzzat.

How about Tomak Save the Earth for the PS 2, a game where you take care of a girl who's a head in a flower pot.

@Spain: Killer 7? Well...yeah, I just don't know how to describe it.

Incredible Crisis for the PS 1 can be pretty weird.

And Killer7 is an action game for the PS 2 known for having a Mind Screw storyline.

added and added!

Thanks.

Guys, you forgot about Beautiful Katamari for 360.

And Killer7 was for Gamecube. We do not talk about the PS2 version. Ever.

I remember a proposed list of the ten weirdest games. #10 was the aforementioned Incredible Crisis, #1 was Stretch Panic, and Mister Mosquito was somewhere in between.

I can remember an article, I've read some years ago, about a Playstation game where you have to take care of a fish. With a human head. It looked pretty gross in my opinion. I've never played it, but I can't imagine it not being weird. If only because of the fish with human head.

Oh, we actually have a page about it.

You thinking of Seaman (for Dreamcast and PS 2). And yes, it's very weird.

^^Sounds like that Seaman game, but that was for the Dreamcast, I think.

^Ah.

edited 8th May '11 2:03:39 AM by RocketDude

Oh, Seaman! Yeah, that was on the list, too!

As long as we're giving things we don't remember the names of, the one and only "Japanese coin-op" on the list was a game where you anally finger-raped people. This action was performed via use of a sort of giant foam finger attached to the console. Anyone got a name?

Boon-Ga Boon-Ga, an arcade game. It's actually Korean.

^I think I'll be giving "stuff no one would ever want to play" its own category if no one minds....

I haven't finished it but from what I've played of Planescape: Torment it was an incredibly weird, quirky and refreshing WRPG. Talking, floating skulls, rats that somehow cast lightning bolts and kick tonnes of ass and other stuff like that.

Nope, PC.

console?

Gaball Screen. It's a PS 1 game where play as a sentient shoe and explore black and white white worlds filled with creepy cut-out people.

There's a lot weird games for the PS 1, aren't there?

edited 8th May '11 2:16:44 AM by KuroBaraHime

There are, probably a reason for it, damn if I know what that'd be, though.

Do you happen to have any idea of where I could get ahold of Gaball Screen? Sounds interesting in a lolwut-inducing way.
