There was a vehicular combat game in the mid to late '90s where you drove a tank around in an environment that was somewhat reminiscent of Tron. I remember very distinctly that at the beginning of each level a computerized voice would go "Entering Arenerrrrr!". The fact that the word "arena" was never pronounced correctly in the game is very memorable for some reason. Trying to figure out what game that was has bugged me over the years.

I believe I played a demo of a game similar to this. Might be called Eliminator.

I remember back when I was a kid, there was this PC game I would borrow from the library where you were these little furry monster looking things jumping around on platforms and I swear there was some sort of labs or something where they were created.

Hi! Looking for a game I used to play about 8 years ago. It was a car/weapons game. Multiplayer. Each four cars start off in a different corner, you race for different weapons hidden so you can take out the other opponents. Weapons like missiles, oil slick, protective shields etc.. There is different cities you can pick with diff courses. You pick your car in the beginning, each have there own strngths and weakneases Any ideas?
Sounds like it could maybe be Twisted Metal or maybe Carmageddon? I'm not entirely sure.

Hello,ive been searching for this game for about a month now and i still cant find it.
It's an old PS1 game that is set in space. It was 3rd person shooter/adventure i think, you had to shoot aliens and there was some platforming. I can vaguely remember the first level, it starts out on a long floating tunnel with your ship on the right hand side. The character has a gun in his right hand which slightly resembles a torch. If i remember correctly he had blue pants and a red shirt...tho not entirely sure about that.
Please if you remember this game ill greatly appreciate it. :)

Hm, nice try but that doesn't look like it. I think it was older than that, slower-paced, and the graphics were more brightly colored and abstract. I also believe it was PC only. It may have been a later DoS game, now that I think of it.

Afraid it's neither of those, I'm familiar with both of them, and this had... sort of hovertanks, not cars.

Come to think of it, I remember the intro movie. Had a woman walking into a sort of futuristic video arcade (there's an oxymoron for you) and getting into this simulator type machine to play the game. So the the story of the game is simply that it's a video game...

Hi guys need help looking for an old pc game. it had hover tanks in it, i think with fixed guns. the levels were huge and colorful, kinda grid like i think. and the end of like 5 levels you fought giant boss battles. one of them i remember was like a giant armored aramadillo that you had to chase down and fight as it drove around and shot at you. it had a starter hover tank that was blue i think and in the levels there was bonus level portals you could find to unlock new hovertanks. it was definately 3d and was fun. ITS NOT hover tanks 3d altho the concept is almost the same. its been driveing me wild trying to remember this game so any knowlegede on it would be most helpful. you can email me the answer at [email protected] again thanks if you can tell me the name of the game.
... and this sounds like a pretty good description of it.

Hello, everyone.
So, the game I am looking for is for either PS1 or PS2, but most likely PS1. Here's what I remember... Bear with me, I only remember the beginning.

-It was an RPG, and I remember that I felt as though it was very gory for an RPG, especially one of its time.
-In the beginning, I remember something about the characters being on a train; they were a male protagonist and a female protagonist.
-The male used a sword, and (The most memorable part) the female fought by physically hitting opponents with a large book. It may have been a Bible.
-I played this game very close to or right before the PS2 was released, so it would either have to be PS1 or a very early PS2 release.

Hello,
I'm looking for a PS1 game where you played as some little black bug that could possess animals. The bug would die after a time if it wasn't possessing an animal.

Salam,

Well, in 90's i had played a game sort of space gameplay in which there was a mothership with female voice and we have to create helicoptors, tanks, APVs and attack to other mothership, the best part of this game is that we can select ourself to stay in mothership or select helicoptor to ride or tank to ride and we slip into it and the hud get changed and we are in the battle.

Any ideas guys ?

I've been looking for a game, where you were playing as a vehicle (maybe a car?) with weapons on its doors. The enemies were strange spider-like robots or something. Please tell me this game's name!

Reposting,

Looking for a very old game, somehwere from betwean 1990-2000. It`s a PC, 2D sidescroller where you could play as 1 of the 3 classes - mage, archer and warrior(no not Trine, Trine is 2009). So what you did is, you had to walk through the dungeons collecting gems and fighting different kinds of foes, doing some mediocre platforming, you could also upgrade your characters skills if i`m not mistaking. And as far as I remember, I haven`t played this game in 10, or more, years, the final boss was some large skeleton with a crown.
The heroes all looked like dwarfs or maybe even Vikings, but it`s not any of the "Lost Vikings" games.
And yet again, if my memory doesn`t fail me miserably, the executable was called dwarf.exe or dwarf2.exe (cause that was what it looked like on my desktop at the time, cause I spent so much time in front of it)
Also if this helps, the style was a bit cartooney and it`s certainly not "Golden Axe"
The King of Dragons?

i have a game for u. it was a platformer game where you were a guy and you were in weird alien worlds and you would run around and there would be these aliens coming after and you'd have to kill them by throwing them into these metal shredders that would tear them to pieces and once you threw enough in them it would break the shredders so you could pass through. also there was minigames where you would slide down long tubes and try to avoid getting hit by rocks on the walls of the tube and another where you'd be on some star wars like hovering speeder bikes trying to shoot down aliens on them while u avoided being hit by trees and rocks and things. i cant remember the name i thought it was called warped 3 or something and i cant find it anywhere. it was probably really obscure and not that popular but it reminded me of a cross between pitfall and abes odyssey. ive been feeling crazy nostalgic about it. who knows what this game might be?
The game you're looking for is called Wild 9 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltmnDKuqom0

That would be Shadow Hearts, for the PS2. :)

Hi everyone.

I'm trying to remember the name of a game I played with my brothers in primary school (15ish years ago) on PC.
It's a board game similar to Monopoly where everyone chooses a character in a car. You drive around in an open world style board game map buying properties where natural disasters may occur damaging them. I remember one specific one was "Nessie" would come out of the lake and damage your property. Also I think it was kind of a race as well, yet also competitive to see who gets the most money.
If anyone have any ideas, would really help as I would like to play it again with my cousin's daughters when they're over, as I remembered it was quite and enjoyable.

Cheers

EDIT: I also remembered a character having a monocle and big mustache.

Hey Guys,

So there is this game that I used to play where you had these different characters each with a different type of attack, you catapult each of these characters into the place you want and then it attacks these monster looking cahracters. these characters level up with each enemy killed. I remember that one of the characters had a bo and arow. I also remember that the first level was in some green hills with edges you can fall from. one of the monsters was yello and there wass this cave where i think they came out from. there was this trick were you use this huge boulder to block the monster way and hit him without him hitting you.

I hope these info can help anyone remember this game.

thank you and please help me

Okay, this one's a line-drawn black and white adventure game from the 1980s. I used to play it on the apple mac. It was basically fantasy (swords and wizards) but you could also pick up guns on your travels. My two strongest memories are having to swish a sword in a wizard's chamber to make something important happen, and occasionally, (seemingly at random intervals, at least to my 8-9 year old mind) being transported to an arena where I had to fight a dinosaur and always died.

Can anyone help??

Hey guys.

I've been looking for a game I played about 10-12 years ago and I hope you guys might know which one I'm talking about.

I think it was for the PS1, was on a 10-in-1 CD (was a burnt game, so no cover or anything to go by, the CD managed to get too many scratches at some point and we didn't have a backup (which is why I started looking for it in the first place)).

Was a side scrolling game where you could play alone or 2 players, and when choosing 1 of the 3 characters (2 males, 1 female) which were shown as playing cards(king, queen and the "J" which I got no idea what is called in English) they would jump out of said cards, both players couldn't choose the same character. You would pick up weapons and (maybe, not sure) health-restoring items during the levels but lose them at the end of it as far as I remember, and there was a large 2-handed sword which only the larger of the 2 males could wield without slowing down, and it would only last for a limited amount of swings.

Thanks in advance, I hope one of you know it :)
