Games you can't remember, but still miss - describe them.

[Sateru]

I remember this one game I had played when I was younger, I think it was on the Gameboy or something. It was a game where you were a boy who lived in a village that was attached to a giant castle that had some kind of a monster in it. There were other monsters that you could capture... I think they were in eggs or something... I just remember it was hard to get monsters. I don't know if you could fight with them or if it was like Pokemon and they did all of the fighting. I can't remember much about the game, and I can't remember much about the characters or anything. I think you left the dungeon in order to heal and stuffs. Every so many levels had a boss, and I think you could skip to the floors that had bosses you had dealt with. That's all I can remember, I think the monsters were visible on the field screen so you could avoid them. T-T I don't even know if I was dreaming about it or something. If anyone could help me with the name of it, I would be so grateful.

I've been trying to remember a game i use to play on the pc. It was around mid/late 90s.

it was 2D and set in a settlers/aoe type of terrian. All I remember was i started in the forest with a unit horse and had to search for a castle. once you enter it you can start making units on a selection screen and upgrade castle(like transform it into a castle with a river surrounding it) all the purchasing/upgrading was via some sort of option screen, I think gameplay it went year by year. the crossbow men could walk along the castle walls and cav/units can roam inside the castle aswell as around the area to search for the enemy etc. I think it was a demo i played so cant remember any more.


Please tell me someone knows what im talking about lol.
thanks

I have been looking for this game everywhere and have no idea what it was called. The only thing I can remember is that it was kind of set up as Mario except you were a blonde girl and you had to avoid grubs and make it through the end of the maze, I really hope someone knows what I am talking about it would be greatly appreciated!!

If you can remember aproximately what year it is from, and the platform you played it on that could help narrowing it down.

A platform game with a blonde girl, one bet is Great Giana Sisters:

Azure Dreams, I think. It's a PS1 game that was ported to Game Boy Color

I need help! I had a Sega Genisis w/ a Sega CD and a 32x. I LOVed a particular fighting game that I can no longer remember the name of. The fighter I always used was a female fighter with an oufit that reminded me of Lia's gold bikini. She wore a helmet with ram's horns and when she won the fight she would take off the helmet and reveal long red hair. I THOUGHT it was Eternal Champions but she isn't in the character list! Can anyone help a geek girl out?

 

[Dracowrath]

There's a game I vaguely remember playing as a kid, ran into a part I couldn't figure out, and abandoned it. I have no idea what ever happened to the disc of the game (pretty sure it was ps1 or ps2). All I remember is something about playing a guy sentanced to death for...something. So they put this weird mask on his head and dropped him into some sewer area. I don't miss it persay, but I would like to play it again just to see what else was to that game.

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP WITH THE NAME OF THIS GAME PLEASE!?!

You were a wizard or at least you wore a wizard robe. The very first part of the game i think is getting the robe which is in a house which is locked. and when you get the robes it's like the game starts. You are on an island or at least close to the sea and it's raining in the beginning. I think you have to find a way of stopping the rain to get on the boat. when the boat takes you across to another island you end up in the desert some how. I remember clearly though that you had this buggy which you could drive around in. I also mind that there was this room that was like all stars around you and no floor and you had to make your way out. this game has cartoonish graphics possible game made early 21 century possible before that, not to sure. the character had a ponytail sticking out the top of his head and he sort of skipped when he walked.
__________
(at one point you have to open this gate, so you have to try and hit the leaver with a (yellow ball?) i think. And once you get it open and past the gate there's these 2 animals? polar bears maybe? one was bigger than the other one. I'm also sure that people took over the place at the start of it.)

Okay, so I've had this Game on my mind for a while now and would Love if someone can help me identify it.
It was a 90's pc game. Probably somewhere in-between 1995-1999.
The game was cartoon based. And for some reason I remember the main characters voice sound Very similar to "Bobcat Goldthwait".
It started with the main character asleep and these monsters are trying to wake him up for a "movieshoot or something if that nature."
I remember something about a telephone call that wakes him and it turns out to be a director and he's yelling at him for being late.
The main goal of the game (from what I remember), is to get to Hollywood.
You have to get across the U.S. Map to achieve your goal. One of the levels is Alcatraz and there are "Prison Ghosts" you have to avoid.
I think the monsters are trying to stop him from getting to Hollywood. Idk. But I would Love if anybody can "decipher" this for me.

Oh and I think a demo of a different game came on the disc. It involved a "mad scientist with monster toads" and he had petshop type pets (goldfish, dog, cat, mouse, turtle, etc.) battle it out. They were all cute but after a special move they could turn into Robots versions of themselves.
The Pets had to fight through the other animals to get to the Mad Scientist and stop him from putting his toads into the water supply or something.

If Anyone can figure this out, I would GREATLY Appreciate it!

Im looking for a old pc game i cant remember the name of, maybe someone can help.

Its a top-down space game where you control a ship and fly around doing missions. I remember the first thing you did was save up money for some sort of hyperdrive and fuel which you used to fly to the next system. You could get there by flying normally through open space but it would take forever. (The "hyperdrive" made you go faster, but still travel normally, and drained special fuel)

Other than that you could buy weapons etc, talk to people on nerby planets/ships etc. It was not a tactical game with lots of ships and it was story driven.

Could be Solar Winds

Do you have any more details?

Thats it! Thanks a lot, been bugging me for ages.

 

[king_carter7]

Mine is a ps2 game that i would always play at my friend's house. It was almost like Twisted Metal, only more alien oriented. Huge variety of maps and vehicles. Please Help
--Also, sorry if it's already been discussed. Thanks

 

[Trull]

Okay, so it was on portable console - you got a team of these animals and fought other animals with them. I remember that there was a team of six, because my brother would have a six word sentence including swears.

 

[idlerwolf]

Hey people, I'm glad I found this... (Actually, I registered only to ask for a game lol)

Ok, so it was a NES game, you played a character dressed in blue (Maybe pink later in the game), he had a helmet, and sunglasses (kinda resembled a cop). It was on an island, or some natural environment, the enemies were monsters I believe. I remember one particular boss (the first one I think) which was a big creature on a suspension bridge...

Does anybody know?

 

[Tallim]

This is a hard one...

Commodore 64
I think the game started with a digitized "Liberty Bell March" (Monty Python theme). It was a multi-room side-view platformy puzzle type game. Your character was a little horned viking type guy with an axe, I think, who could bounce across water. Several water rooms had giant neptune statues that could come up out of the water and kill you against the ceiling. When you died, your body disappeared and the horn floated down. I think the name had something to do with "Brain" (I thought it was "Brain Drain" but google doesn't seem to bear that out for me).

That's not a hard one at all it is Brian Bloodaxe without a shadow of a doubt.

 

[jjjonesy27]

It was an overhead shooter on the PS1. You got a bunch of different weapons and you just walked around and killed zombies and monsters and junk. I don't think there was any real plot.

 

[cassy0524]

I used to play the game on my PC and the PC had like windows '97 on it, so it was a pretty old game. It's been hard for me to find the game because I only have a vague memory of it. I just remember it having a little 8- bit blonde girl going through mazes(the screen play like Mario) and avoiding grubs and plants, and you were in a garden looking setting, I keep thinking that the game was called Garden... Something. PLEASE HELP! I would love to play this game again!

Ico. Totally.

With the HD Collection of Ico and Shadow of the Colossus coming out, you might get an opportunity to play it sooner (and prettier) than you think.

 

[Caldabolg]

Okay this game was a trial i downloaded maybe 6-8 years ago. It was a top down space game where you controlled a single ship. Key parts of the game are being able to customize your ship with different ship designs. There is the ability to buy and trade goods between the different planets to earn money. You can also destroy trade ships or pirates to salvage money. You could hire other ships to join your fleet and use them to carry more goods. The game was divided between two main empires which showed up as red and blue on the map i think. There was also a third group which in the game had found alien technology and were technologically advanced. Also their was a lot of exploring to do in remote star systems. One thing i remember well is that when the trial was over an "enforcer" came out of nowhere and blew your ship to pieces telling you to go buy the game. Any help would be appreciated. Im not sure if this game is a space mmo or not but im thinking it wasnt.

 

[Shoggoth2588]

On the NES there was a game that I am about 90% sure I had as a child. I remember absolutely nothing about it except for the picture on the cartridge: It's a space marine in full armor and helmet (all silver and pointy looking) shooting a dinosaur in the face with a laser-pistol. The dinosaur is red and looks like a T-REX only a bit spikier than what we depict them as being at this point.

Help please?
