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

I have been looking for this game for hours now and can't find it.

Im looking for a top down strategy game where you try to paint the map with your colour or paint the enemies crystal to win. It came on a disk of arcade games such as Total Carnage and SMASH TV.

More Info:
Top Down, Paint the map to win, instantly place down "units" such as balloons to carry paint across the map which allows you to place more units on that paint.

Hey im new here, ive played a game a long time ago on ps1 i think, it was a pixely game with view from the top, you had to go across the street and fight, there was a man with yellow hair, and a white tank top i think, a woman with long black hair, the third character i dont remember, i think it was a sega game, there was a sad/nice music at the beginning with conditions, thanks if your reply.

Probably too old (and not on the PS1), but still... from your description, I'd guess Streets of Rage [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMsBkXGDix4]?

Okay there was this game for DOS that I played.

It was a driving game. The first level was a really dark, rainy roadside. In this game the main car you drove was a Corvette. The weapons I remember were a pipe, a bat and some other things. Other vehicles were motorcycles. It was a road rash style game. I cant remember the name to save my life. it wasnt road rash 3D i dont think.

There was a game I remember playing on the Playstation 1, and it had like different arenas for you to fight in and all I can remember is that one of the characters you could play as was like a farting caterpillar thing. No idea what it was called.

Do you remember if it had 2D sprites or 3D models?

3D models for sure

This may be a bit tricky but I remember playing a PC game at a friend's house in the early to mid 90s. It was a pretty generic overhead space shooter. The basic background was grey. You shot at incoming enemies. At the end of the stage you fought a boss. Now, here's the weird bit. On the bottom of the screen was a sub screen. In it appeared a guys face. I remember it sort of looking like Billy Joel with Sunglasses on. The camera zooms in on the image of the face and he kisses the screen, at least that's what I remember, cause it was really strange. Any ideas?

My guess is The Unholy War:

I think that is it! I remember one of the maps. The only thing is that I don't recognize the name

Hey guys, so I'm going back many a year...Back in elementary school I remember playing this music game where a guy in a mask had captured a princess in her own castle. To help the princess you had to find all of the scrolls that the guy had hidden. You also had to solve musical puzzles. I've tried looking everywhere for it but the second "scrolls" is added to anything it takes you directly to Skyrim.

Hello guys I can't remember a pc game from the 90s that I used to play when I was a kid. I will describe the game the best I can remember:

You start on earth with a spacecraft and you go on a trip into a sort of tipe Space station hotel in some part near Titan (moon). In the trip to this hotel you are shooting some rocks in the spacecraft. When you arrive to this Space-hotel you can interact with almost everything (it is like point and click). In the hotel there is a restorant where you can eat pizzas, drinks, etc. There is also a video game room where you can play if you have coins. I remember there was also a cinema where you can watch the three stooges. You can also visits several floors if you could get the key. I remember you can click differents rooms and extra terrestial got angry because they were having showers...

Thanks you very much.

First of all thanks a lot if you find the game. I've been looking for years.
It's an old game, I don't remember the console.
-Robo/Mech fighting or shooting, little humans controlled the different robots, and when damaged they could exit the robot and keep fighting 2d game I think that the little people after exiting the robot/machines could use jetpacks.

Hi guys! Don't know if this has been asked before, almost 700 pages and whatnot.

Me and my little brother played this game when we were younger. You were in a maze/labyrinth of some sort. There were a lot of stuff to collect, and I mean a lot, almost every inch was covered in colorful coins, gems and power ups (I think). You were this fantasy character with a bow, elf or human possibly. It was a top down perspective and you were mostly killing spiders. I don't know if this was the whole game or if it was more to it cause we never made it out of the maze. I think there might have been keys involved and time limit too, but I'm not sure. I think there was a minotaur boss, but could be something else. This was on a Pc if I remember correctly. Been searching for years, so any guesses would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Whoops, double post for some reason.

Hey guys, I need help looking for this game I played as a kid,
It was on the Xbox and it was set on a ship in space and you play as a guy who at the start (I think) has to run from this monster that broke out of its restraints and killed some guys that were with you, scientists I think and as you run away the camera transitions into a 2D platformer view and you have to press some QTE to avoid obstacles and such, thats all I remember would be a great help if someone could tell me the name of the game (Sorry for the vagueness)

Not having much luck am I

- About 10-15 years ago I remember playing a 3d space shooter games.

I think it was on windows 95.

It was arcade style - you looked behind your ship, moved it around the screen with your mouse and slowly waves of aliens would come and you had to shoot (mouse click) them while they moved around. If you couldn't hit them in time, they would fly towards you and if made contact with your ship you would die.

After a while you could get upgrades and then you would fight bosses. One of the upgrades is a bomb and when you right clicked it blew everything up on screen.

There was also this really rare powerup that I think I got once, which makes your ship spin round really quickly and send bullets everywhere for about 20 seconds, destroying everything.

The most striking search item I can think of is that after I few levels (I think level 2 but unsure) the game actually switches from being 3d to on it's side and the waves would come from the right in vertical lines.

There was no music from what I remember but the sound effects were quite eerie. The aliens would make all these strange sounds, and there was this computational style narrator who would say things if you got a powerup (Thing's like "power increased" but I don't remember exactly what he said).

I spent about an hour searching before I came here, and the closest picture to describe it is here - http://badgerheadgames.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/tapinvasionl6.png

Although it was much better graphics (as it was 3d) and there was nothing at the bottom (except your ship)

The game did have a score system and was very difficult (probably due to the 3d aspect), I never beat it nor got close.

Maybe Space Quest V?

I'd say that's probably "Metal Warriors" on SNES.
