Winter Themed Games...

winter games?

I played the heck out of that on the C64 when I was in grammar school. IT WAS THE ONLY FUN GAME at school. I would have much preferred something else.

You DO NOT prefer something else.  Winter Games (and the whole series of "Games" games) were amazing.  I would be hot dogging and bobsledding for hours BITD and I would be sad when sleep/school/eating/breathing would become needed.

For some reason this thread made me first think of the icy levels in Yo Noid, Matterhorn Screamer for Apple II, and Duck Tales Himalayas.

It was a lot of fun, playing Winter Games. 

I suppose I always wondered if there were any other "school safe" titles that I was missing out on. Ha!

Penguin Land!


Karnov NES is a great game staring an underappreciated character.

You can never go wrong with penguins! 

How about pengo for the MD 

Not to mention snow bros for MD as well.
Snow Bros (Genesis) - Levels 1 to 20

Like I said, you can never go wrong with Pengo. Classic Sega.

KICKLE CUBICLE, FGTS.

Ha! I haven't played this since it was released. Damn.

Wait there are awesome snow levels in the Galaxy games?  Why have I not played these yet....  Thanks for the push,  off to pull out the wii now.

Oh and Cool Boarders 2 took up so much of my time in middle/high school...

I know galaxy 1 had some great ice/snow levels. I don't remember 2 as much, but I think there were a couple.

Any good racers with winter conditions?

Excite Truck had some neat snowy levels...
Jet Moto had a few (and the music was awesome)

Oh another game that had some fun snow levels that I liked was Croc.  Not the best platformer but still cute and fun.

HOW COULD I FORGET the awesome snow segments in SPY HUNTER.

When you got to the frozen snow fields and icy road, you knew you made some progress. Watch out for the helicopter!

f*cking Kickle Cubicle and Penguin Land are taken, so I guess SMB world 6-3, that frosty planet on Fantasy Zone II, and that icy planet on Star Wars 64 Episode 1 racer or whatever.

As far as winter based racing games go, I can never forget one of my favorite ones on the PSX...SLED STORM!!!!!! I loved that game as I remember playing it at a buddy's house as a kid when it was new and I love Rob Zombie and DrRAGULA is on the games OST and is one of the songs you can listen to that plays randomly during races. I re-bought that game for cheap at a flea market just for memories...had to have it. I still find it fun even after all these years.

Also, I just remembered that there is at least one or more snowy area's in Valkyrie Profile for PSX in case I failed to mention that earlier. Wasn't mentioned yet in the post. As I am playing the game now, if I can find/figure out the area I will edit my post and add the name in just for specifics.

Gah! All I got out of this thread is that there are obeyers in Mass and RI that I didn't know about that need to get together!  When I lived in RI I didn't have any other nearby obey buddies and you ought to make the most of it!  Play some obey together!  Doesn't one of the Bomberman games feature a snow level?  That's enough!  There ought to be a NE Turbofest.  That is all.
