I remember those games, Abe Babe. I don't know if anybody here had an Amiga (dawn of classic PC gaming, and home to predecessor of an upcoming Xbox game: Robin Hood, Defender of the Crown), but it had a game by Bullfrog similar to the style of 'head over heels.' Guess it doesn't have a genre name, and was the closest thing to 3D RPG at the time.
Long before people were even talking about realtime graphics, the Amiga was home to a game called 'Virus,' which used polygons to construct its (then) amazing visuals.
Anybody remember the original Populous? Now that was a great game.
