I played this game forever ago (well early-mid 2000s from some kind of emulator) and my younger self was so bad at it. I should give it another go some time, I did once try playing it again a year or so ago but for some reason I was convinced it was the SNES game and wondered why it looked nothing like I remember.

I completely forgot about Psycho-Pass. That had some neat ideas in it and I loved the story (of S1 at least never watched the others).

To be fair to Blade Runner here, I don’t think it was really made to be “Cyberpunk”. It has some of the themes and inspired a lot of future Cyberpunk work (at the very least aesthetic wise), but the book “Cyberpunk” wasn’t published until a year later and “Neuromancer” didn’t come out until two years later, so a lot of the themes that we consider Cyberpunk weren’t fully realised yet. I guess you could argue it’s more proto-Cyberpunk (and a number of other sci-fi from before then), but it’s pretty firmly entrenched as Cyberpunk now, and to be honest, I don’t really disagree either. Strict definitions for genres are pretty tricky, even more so for foundational work like I’d say Blade Runner was.

I should really get around to playing Cloudpunk sometime. I was following the game for ages before it came out and bought it on release, then just never played it for some reason. It seems right up my alley too.
