Maybe MicroManiacs? It was a racing game where you could play as a variety of racers each with two special abilities, including "Maw Maw" - a pig-dog-chimp genetic hybrid whose two abilities were eating other racers with his tongue, and farting fireballs (the power was actually called "Fireball...

This might be a longshot, considering I've never played it, but was it Sid Meier's Pirates [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Meier%27s_Pirates]?

I believe we're looking for the same game! That certainly sounds like the game I posted this description of a while ago:

That sounds a lot like Myth, a rather unique series of real time strategy games. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_(computer_game_series)

No problem! :) This is a rather vague description, but the fact that you mentioned "space" maps reminds me of Big Red Racing, which had races on different planets.

Hmm, maybe one of the Star Control games? I never played them myself, but I've heard a lot about it from fans. There was a race of spider-like aliens in that called the Ilwrath, and a race of ladies called the Syreen. Each race had different ships with different abilities, and Wikipedia says...

I also just joined to see if I can get any help finding an old game! It was a PC game for kids with an environmental message. I remember that the basic "plot" was that there was a planet which had its natural environment destroyed by industrial pollution, and you had to do various minigames...

Wait, why is agnosticism a third option? Surely it's covered by "No"?

This is somewhat true - the Americans did take custody of many German scientists involved in the Nazi nuclear program, but the politicisation of science in Nazi Germany caused many physicists to flee the country and the Nazi nuclear program was generally behind that of the USA's as a result, I...

Tokyo Underground. Utterly terrible, through and through.

I don't tend to post on this forum too often, but I have decided that you, Mister Woodsey, are pretty damn awesome.

Why should the term "marriage" be specifically between a man and a woman? In common parlance it's already used to mean the joining of any number of things, or dedication to something other than a member of the opposite sex, so why not remove any sort of separation between homosexual and...

Erm, the average, adult, human body contains 5 to 6 quarts of blood, of which it can lose about 40% before death is inevitable? Aki Hoshino's breast size is 34F? People who don't wear shoes tend to have healthier feet than those who do? Bowler hats were originally designed for horse riders, as...

'Splosion man is a fun game, but the 2-player co-op mode can be fiendishly difficult. Level 3-1 took me and my sister over 72 minutes to accomplish! I suppose that's what the Way of the Coward is for, but I am not a little girly man, so I did not use it.

The USA? Yes. Russia? Doubtful. China? No. China couldn't actually get to the British Isles, as it doesn't have a blue water fleet. I doubt Russia is advanced enough and has the resources to establish air superiority over the British Isles and to decisively defeat the Royal Navy, so any...
