Abandonware Game

SavageMind says:
Brix 2 is another gem from Epic Megagames that cannot be ignored. It starts as a simple matching blocks with shapes.

This is a nice attempt from acclaim to try to rival GT2 on the PSX. The graphics are nice, the framerate is solid but the controls are not. If you want a decent racing game then VP will satisfy.

Universal Soldier (USA) (Proto)

Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) ROM

DeagonX says:
Basic sidescrolling shooter with one terrible exception; controls make no sense. Aiming must be done by stoping, standing still, holding down "B" and selecting a direction for a weird rotating aim. The gameply would be interesting if not for the crazy controls. My advice, don't bother playing it.
