I'm trying to remember the name of this game I had on PlayStation a few years back. You were a lil' fella standing on a large platform of blocks. Blocks rolled towards him and you had to keep dodging and standing in the right places to stay alive. At some point you triggered a voice saying the name of the game too I think... it may have been at the end of a level. It was so simple.. it was one of a few PlayStation games I really loved..

Intelligent Qube.

Wahoo! Google image search says you're right! Thanks!

Only played the demo on a Jampack, but it was a fun little game.

 

[Defensor]

Sony needs to make a Intelligent Cube title for the PSP.

 

[bjork]

Tracking down IQ was harder than tracking down Dragonball GT, since I refused to do ebay at the time. Well worth it, though.

 

[MrAngryFace]

Screw that, you want Irritating Stick!

 

[radioheadrule83]

Screw that, you want Irritating Stick!

That is one of the best game names I've read in a while. And it actually exists. Wonders never cease!

 

[bjork]

And Irritating Stick was $8 at Fry's.

 

[AeroGod]

My local GameStop has 4 of them, used, 40 bucks each. WTF! Is it that popular and/or rare.

 

[Truelize]

Yeah. It's pretty rare. I loved that game. I'll pick it up if I ever find it. That and Devil Dice were awesome. Thank goodness for Bombastic, cause Devil Dice isn't cheap anywhere either.

 

[Wario64]

Heh, I had a feeling this thread was gonna be about Intelligent Qube before clicking this thread. What an awesome game that was

 

[FortNinety]

Anyone ever play Nobody Can Stop Mr Domino? Love that game as well.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

anyone play kula world ever? I used to love that game, I think monkey ball 3 should steal elements off it for the puzzle section of the main game. (In my brain there is 2 monkey ball main modes, puzzle and skill)

Only if there's no region lock... SCEA can't trusted to bring over quality SCEJ games anymore. :/

 

[bjork]

Got Devil Dice for $9 at a WM.

As did I, which is the only reason I came into this thread. Intelligent Qube demo on the 1997 Jampack was awesomeness.

 

[Jonnyram]

There were about 3 or 4 versions released in Japan, and then IQ Remix for the PS2, which has a great soundtrack too. I'd say there's a fairly high chance of PSP versions of IQ and Devil Dice (Xi). thanks to their "playable in short bursts" nature.

They made a (2P simultaneous!) sequel for the PSX, then IQ Final for the PS2, so they could always just port over one of those games...

 

[Ranger X]

Intelligent Cube, Devil Dice, Mr. Dominos and Mr.Driller were truly good puzzle games.
Where the fuck are my new great innovative puzzlers this gen??

 

[dog$]

Mostly on PS2, it seems.

Fantavision, Otostaz, and I'd guess even Adv. of Cookies & Cream are the more prominent examples I can think of.

 

[RevenantKioku]

I still hold hatred for this douchebag grabbing the only copy of IQ in a store for 450 yen. I glance and see it, and bam! GRAAH! And then someone swiped the free FF1+2 poster the one store was dumping. It was not a good day.

 

[Insertia]

completely forgot about 'ol IQ. Probably the greatest puzzle videogame I've ever played.

Only played Fantavision (not too bad) -- what are the two other ones you mentionned?

 

[dog$]

Otostaz is an import title that's quite good and has a lot to do. I can give details if requested but bobbyconover has covered the game here before, it's in some past thread.

I haven't played Cookies & Cream but I hear it can be quite hellish, especially with two people. At least that one did come out in the US.

 

[cubicle47b]

The only problem with Intelligent Qube was the length and difficulty. I played the Jampack demo quite a few times and when I got the actual game I beat it on my second try.

 

[FortNinety]

Well, it's good and all... but greatest puzzle of videogame still has to be Tetris.

 

[BuddyC]

Anyone ever play Nobody Can Stop Mr Domino? Love that game as well.

Haha, yea that was pretty cool. I believe it was reissued a few years ago, because Best Buy suddenly got a lot of copies.

 

[Vashu]

I remember that game you asked for.... Over here in PAL-Land, it was called Kurushi, sequel being Kurushi Final.... I managed to score a 154 on the first try with that game.. .Showed some blonde babe who thought she knew everything about games how dumb she was with her 90....
