Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[Caleb Heggie]

Hey, There's a game on PS2 that I can't remember the name of but I can sorta remember how it went and what happened in it. You played a Knight, I can't remember his mission but he went from a starting area I can't remember to a desert, on the way he'd kill enemies that were all sorts of different and you could become any of them if you killed them. In the desert area you'd kill Egyptian themed enemies and then after that area you'd come up in a dark forest area after a cut scene I can't remember fully but I remember a few things. Your king is on his throne and a woman in robes walks up to the door before his chamber and turns the two guards into metallic creatures before walking into the chamber and turning the king into a mouse. From then on I remember you can become a type of enemy that was like a wraith that could mind control enemies.

Does anyone know the name of the game? I'd really love to play it on an emulator. :/

It's a side scrolling platformer with a decent sized sprite. In the opening scene a dragon turns a lady into a large pearl and takes her. The first level is a forrest and you can only jump I believe, you can get a red cape upgrade and there is some ladder/rope platforming over Lava. The Second Level I believe your inside a castle of something and start platforming up.

You got some of the details wrong (such as the cape color), but that must be Wardner.

Ahhh snap! Thanks it, been looking for it for like 10 years. Thanks dude!

Hi, I need help remembering a classic PS1, PS2 game (unsure which it was but I played it on my PS2.)

So the game had a red disc (artwork of the disc)
It was a side scrolling game I think, and you could play 2 player if you wanted to. Depending on who you chose you could be a girl with a power up with purple light spinning around her when she spun,
You could be a guy with a yellow light and his power up.
Or you could be a guy with a red power up when he spun around. I can't remember if there was any other characters but they're the main ones I played as. You could pickup chairs, weapons etc. you had to kill fat guys etc and at the end you would hop onto an elevator/lift. (Not inside one but ontop kind of like a car elevator.) there's bosses and I can remember one mission has those Chinese people with those bowl Hats. This is about all I remember to the game but I'd love to know what it was, to play it again. thanks.

Heyy
so in the late 90s and earlys 20s (can't realy precise) i used to play this game that i realy loved.
it's about this sort of spaceship that moves around (not in space) in a map and destroys other ships. it unlocks doors and gets keys. i remember that weapons were used by numbers (such as 7 for rockets and 1 for bullets). i think it has "virus" in its name and im not quiet sure.
i would realy appreciate if anyone knows it ive been loking for it for a very long time.

This one has been bugging me for quite some time. I believe it was on the N64. I think it offered 4-player splitscreen. You could pick from different character classes. I think there was some type of archer, and some type of magician/wizard. I know there was a female character. You would run around, third person view, sorta top down but more like a three-quarter view and kill bad guys. I wish I could remember more.

 

[A Wild T-Rex Appears]

This has been bugging me for a long time and nobody seems to know what im on about.
-old combat racing game
-the game cover was of one of the characters (bold i think) in a go-cart like car using a baseball bat to hit on of the female characters
-each character had a way to attack i think
-like mario cart but for older kids

please just ask for more detail if you think you might know and i'll try to remember

I believe the game you are looking for is called Cel Damage

This is very similar to the game I'm describing but not the one unfortunately, the art style of the characters was more realistic than cartoon. But thanks for the reply, will keep on searching

Have you checked out this Wikipedia page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vehicular_combat_games
It even has sub-genres by vehicle type. It might help. If you know a relative year or what system that might help.

It's not that and it's not Cubosphere, Kula World, Neverball or Ballance, although they are very similar. I also remember there was a time limit for each level - you had to complete it for 3 minutes or so. It's been a few ears now and it's still bugging me on occasion and I still can't manage to find it. Any fresh ideas guy?! PLEASE Description below

Guys I am drowning here... i really need to find that 3d ball game, I have searched everywhere, please help me- it's a game where you have to navigate a ball through platforms and the platforms were in outer space- there were different types of levels- like wooden, metal and colorful, and different types of floors- the ice was the harder to navigate the ball onto, you had to jump with the ball a lot and there were also arrows which made the ball faster.

The only game I can think of is actually called "DSCHUMP" and it has a ball bouncing along platforms in what looks like outer space, and has arrows but I think those reverse the direction of the ball. Just a guess, but worth a shot.

It's not that and it's not Cubosphere, Kula World, Neverball or Ballance, although they are very similar. I also remember there was a time limit for each level - you had to complete it for 3 minutes or so.

It sounds kinda like a game I remember playing on PC that my brother had at one point in time. Was it possibly 3D Marble Flip?

EDIT: Wait! NO! Was it The Labyrinth? That's the game I was thinking of that my brother had. Could it also have been Balance 3D? Or maybe Kororinpa: Marble Mania?

 

[Josette]

Nope, not 3D Marble flip either 0 doesn't even come close :/ Xan, Don't you know whoever was playing it? Can't you ask? So sad, it's been another three years and it's bugging the hell out of me. Yes, its similar but not quite. In the one I'm looking for all the platforms were straight - road-like if you will - you had to go forward to complete the level. The platform didn't turn anywhere - kept going forward. You had to navigate through crates and stuff but always had to go forward. Each level had a time limit - you had 3 minutes to complete it otherwise you lost a life and had to start over.

I have never played it, but I once saw somebody play a game like this. Cubosphere? Kula World? Neverball? All of these seem similar, but none are quite like what I remember... Take a look at those three, maybe what I'm remembering is different from what you are remembering.

EDIT: No, none of the added ones either. It was a PC game, all the platforms were in outer space (pitch black with faraway white dots - stars) and they were all straight- they didt have turns or go up and down.

Check out my edit. I listed a few more for you to google for images to see if maybe one of them is right. I'll post my edit below:

This one has been bugging me for quite some time. I believe it was on the N64. I think it offered 4-player splitscreen. You could pick from different character classes. I think there was some type of archer, and some type of magician/wizard. I know there was a female character. You would run around, third person view, sorta top down but more like a three-quarter view and kill bad guys. I wish I could remember more.

That sounds a lot like Gauntlet Legends..

You mean something like the classic Trailblazer?


If so, there's been several remakes for PC. Might be one of those.

 

[Josette]

The platform in space was very similar to this one, yes, except at some points it had wooden boxes (or metal or icy, depending on the level type)on the sides and you couldn't fall off the platform. And i think in this one the ball keeps rolling, whether in the other one you controlled it completely (you could stop, roll backwards etc.) But i saw on google images that this one also has the split screen multiplayer the other one had, but sadly I couldnt find it in th remakes and similar games I searched for. Thank you guys, keep it up, im a bad idea close to actually promoting a facebook status worldwide to find it - I want to find and play it THAT bad

Hi guys!
I am looking for a game I played in the late 90s (possibly 00s). It was a scrolling beat 'em up fighsting game, where you chose a character (you could play alone or with a friend) and had to fight your way through, although I do not remember if there was a final boss or you just had to beat an x-amount of enemies. You could play in some sort of castle, on a street (urban scenery) and outside in a forest. I also remember two of the characters: One was a girl (black hair, in a pony tail I think, and she was wearing a kimono, I think), who was able to "shoot" doves, which would heal you or your friend if you ran through them. The other one was a sort of invisible man, who was see-through, although his body was outlined with a white line. And there was a character with Goku-like hair, used something similar to the Hadouken. And there was also one character, who was one of the "bad guys", I think, who was wearing some sort of blue armor and also had Goku-like hair.
And I think it was a PC game.

You, sir, are an ABSOLUTE BOSS!!! I found it! Its is indeed Blazing Trails, 1.1 I think! Thank you soooo, sooo much, you just ended my over 4 year quest to find it! Wish you all the best!!!! ))))

 

[legitpie]

I posted in this thread back in 2013 trying to find this game, but I don't think I got any replies from anyone and I'm still going insane trying to find it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, because I'm starting to believe I just dreamed of it.

I'm pretty sure it was on the PS2, and I remember I'd rent it from Blockbuster all the time, but never bought it. (At this point I wish I did, I wouldn't go crazy searching for it).

All I can remember is a sphere dome in space (that had some qualities of Earth, such as grass and I think trees as well, but also tile floor?), and occasionally the gravity would go off. I remember playing as a girl, in either a purple or green bodysuit, with heels and her hair in a ponytail. I remember it being third person, and things (weapons?) would spawn across the dome. I'm also pretty sure the memories I'm having of it were player vs. player on split screen. Both people would play as the same girl, the only difference is one person's girl would be wearing purple while the other would wear green. I'm having trouble remembering if the goal was to defeat the other person or get to something before the other person does.

Some of the details I have of it may be a bit wonky, but any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated. I've done so much searching on google, but nothing comes up remotely close to what I'm talking about. Thank you so much!

Edit: It also wasn't cartoon-ish.

Another edit: I had an epiphany! I remember there was also a chess board level, I believe? And I remember different weapons like arrows, etc. It was definitely an arena type game, except it was third person.

Final edit: After years of endless searching... I finally found it. It was Portal Runner!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for the name of a old PC (DOS) Game. Probably somewhere beetween 1988-1995. I can't remember much of the game. I remember that you where playing a man (2D) and it was probably a Jump and Run or a Arcade game. In the beginning of the game you could walk the screen to different houses or levels, you could access most of them. In one of the levels there was a lantern or something like that to the left of the entrance on a platform (you had to jump in order to get there), which you probably had to collect. Also I can remember the game having very simple graphics, that was mostly very colourfull contours of the objects on a black background.

I know this isn't much, but maybe this rings a bell somewhere.
Thank you for your help.

Edit: I'm not looking for Commander Keen
