MODERATORS
I found someone had posted this on Reddit two years ago. Over there u/Vectrexian had said:
Hell yeah, Sega 32X Metal Head. A janky mess of a game with cool music!
And elaborated:
It’s a clunky mech piloting game for the Sega 32X. The actual gameplay is pretty mediocre, but the music is pretty good (with famed Sonic series composer Jun Senoue on the sound team). One rather “interesting” feature of the game is the character portraits during dialogue, which is where this photo is from. The text was edited for the joke though, that text isn’t in the original game (it’s not even the right font). You can actually change the portraits to anime-style drawings in the options menu but these are funnier, especially when the mouths move.
I knew it looked familiar, I actually played this as a kid and still have it in a box somewhere in my closet. It is truly terrible.
Could it be Quarantine?
Nah, they were all drawings, not photos.
