You should keep a database of games you own for easier reference.

Iron Man X0 Manowar Heavy Metal (SAT/PSX) - I actually own only the Saturn
version, which is supposed to be a superior port of the arcade brawler. I
can honestly say that I've never actually removed the disk from the
package.

Incoming (DC) - One of the launch titles on the Dreamcast, wasn't it? I
recall a visually impressive but shallow shooter. Bizarrely, I have both
the Japanese and American disks lying around.

Ishido (Lynx) - Some sort of puzzle game? I own it, but I think mostly for
the purpose of illustrating that game pricing parity of the era was
extraordinarily unfair, as a deep RPG wasn't worth the same $30 that a
five-minute-at-a-sitting puzzle game.

Inuyasha (PSX) - One of those fighting games based on an anime licence
that didn't end up having any sort of staying power in the marketplace.
See also Bleach and Full Metal Alchemist. My memory of ownership is that I
bought it for the woman of the house, who was exploring the idea of
writing for a company that did game strategy guides. She was distracted by
something shiny and put about fifteen minutes into the game.

Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings (PSP) - It was out on every platform
at the time, but it's the PSP version I've owned and not played much. I
remember bearing the workmanlike first level and judging it to be an
unremarkable Tomb Raider clone, which is ironic in a way. Upon
consideration, Temple of Doom seems to have been the only decent use of
the licence for a game.

-KKC, sneaking in some PSP time at work.

I've got it, played it, and (I think) completed it. It's shit.

It's a version of Shanghai. I've got the Megadrive version in all its
Accolade unlicenced glory

I have an iOS app called Game Vault that I use for keeping track of
stuff like that.

Ishar (ST)
Beautiful looking RPG - never had the cash to buy it until it had been
superceded.

I'm too much of a sucker for graphics and jet engines to go for this -
Realism and propellors is a turn-off for me.

Archer Maclean! It's more than just a fighting game. It's an easter
egg treasure trove.

Ico (PS2/3) - Started several times but never actually finished it. It's
a great game, looks good and very atmospheric, but something isn't quite
right for me. I think I would prefer it to be just a puzzler, i.e. work
out how to exit the location with Yorda without the added tension and
time limiting combat element. And the combat sux. Each time I've stopped
playing is at a combat location.
