Hunting the internet White Whales...Together!!!!

Ohh man theres a game I've been killing myself over trying to remember. I'll relay what I can remember and hope that someone can help me.

PS2 or X-Box RTS game. Theres a good and evil campaign to this game and before I go further I'm 99% sure this isn't a LoTR game. The races in the game are humans and I think dwarves and elves fighting against orcs and dark elves. .......................... ohh my god. I was searching over the net again for it..... it finally came to me and I left this undone for the time. Kingdom Under Fire. Three years this has driven me insane at times.

Thank you OP for having me once again search for this game. *Jumps for joy*. Finally found it.

I've got one that has been bugging me for months. It's actually a flash game... I am almost positive it was on Newgrounds. It was kind of a point and click, but you had a female avatar you could move around.

It was set on a space station, lab, pod, thing... Started off in a black room with just a coffin, cryo unit that you woke up in, window opens revealing space. As you move around there are lots of horror elements, flashes of gore and what not. You pick up bits of a dead body to put back together. I think the head was in a toilet? And a magic door to vacuum opened up after you picked up the head?

I also remember a table that you get strapped to with something happened, you had to free yourself by breaking a VCR underneath a nearby TV. The whole thing ended with some sort of cube like thing, in a white room, and a horribly burnt body. The whole thing was a loop unless you solved it correctly..

I can remember that much about it but not the name... has been driving me insane.

There was this one game, and everything is like blocks, and it's this giant procedurally generated world.Also there are exploding green phallus monsters. I forget what it's called, but it's an indie game, I'm not sure many people would of heard of it.

Hmmm, exploding green dick monsters? Is it from Japan?

I've got a couple, both NES.

One is a space game, where each stage had two parts. First you had to fly thru space (i think it was a side scrolling shooter thing for this part) to get to a station where you had to land. Then it went into sort of an adventure thing where you had to fight to the reactor or whatever to blow up the station. Then you had to get back to your ship and repeat for each stage.

The other one all I remember was it was a ninja thing, that had some side scrolling stuff, but the biggest thing I remember about it was wandering through a building and at some points it would go to a view of the side of the building and a search light would shine on the windows and you had to avoid it. Something along those lines.

I know both of these games were on the NES, one was my grandpa's favorite, one was my cousin's. I can't remember for the life of me what the heck they are called though, and I would love to play them again! Please, help me!

Maybe someone can help me...
There's a song my dad used to listen to in the car all the time. It sounds like Elton John but Im not sure. I vagely remember the lyrics had sonething to do with selling balloons and floating away, and Jesus or something like that. Can someone tell me the name of the song?

Yeah, that would be "Levon" by Elton John.

I used to watch this one cartoon when I was extremely young. The only thing I remember is that it's about some guy with a green sweater, a few strands of hair, and a roundish large nose. I don't even know what the other characters look like. Does anyone know what this cartoon is?! I really want to understand some of the plot.

Doug?

That's got to be Doug right?

I'm looking for an old PS2 era game, couldn't tell you the exact time it was but I think it was pre-2007. It was a game where you completed levels, or stages, I don't remember. And for completing each stage or whatever you got an instrument. An instrument you used to fight and solve puzzle. It might have been for fighting, I can't clearly remember. You had a partner who you could ride and had an obsession, or at least a sweet tooth for flan. I can't remember who made it or published it, and I'll be sure to edit if I remember anything else.

Mine is a flash game on newgrounds.

It's basically a side scrolling space ship shooting game (gradius) and all it has is a large crab king boss. it's just one drawn out epic boss fight....no idea why i can't find it.

I remember this strange game on a demo disc.

It was a city builder. on mars.

The demo had a ticket reel, "life on mars?" and some other stuff. There was no name on the demo, and searches brought up nothing useful. I had these space tents to start then it grows into actual buildings, and I build things like birth control clinics, etc.

Strange, I think a new user asked about this just a few days ago in the larger 'find this game' thread:
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/9.166417.16990989

Damn, this game is pretty old, the background is Windows 98. Hell, this thread is pretty old. I found something on YouTube that shows a building in the selection screen called "Birth Control", at 37 seconds in. Sorry, I can never remember how to link to a YouTube video at a specific time:

Spoiler: I think you got the name right:

"Life on Mars?"

It was (most likely) from the mid-late '90s
It had a bunch of numbered discs that had to be placed individually for each level or something like that. (IRL discs)
There were elevators?
I THINK it was sci-fi.
That's really all I can remember.
