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

[Niiopi]

Hello I'm new here hoping SOMEONE can help me find this game. It was a PlayStation one game and you would control around 3ish types of robots that would each have their own benefits, one was a two legged robot and another one was almost like a vehicle type of robot, meaning you drove it around, and I remember that you would face the same kind of robots in an "arena* type setting, I remember a desert type of environment and you could switch between the robots on a whim and when you did, the one you did not control would just sit there until you controlled it again. You could play two player which then the second player would control one of these robots that the first player wasn't playing as and I distinctly remember two kinds, there may have been more, and as I described above one was a two legged walking machine and the other you would drive around (which was so much fun), and I don't remember if they had weapons although I imagine they would. There was an element of puzzle to it I think as well.

I have been searching for the name of this game for YEARS, if SOMEONE could tell me what it is I would be forever grateful!

Thanks!

If anyone could please help me figure this out that would be amazing!! This is my LAST chance.

Can ANYONE please please figure this one out, I have been trying to remember it for years, years! I think originally when I played it we rented it from a blockBuster, been a long time.

Hello, please help me, I can't seem to remember this game, I was most likely between the ages of 9-12 when I played it. I am currently 17 now. It was a 3D platformer kind of like banjo kazooi, I can only remember small details. There is a part in a cave when there is a slope you can't climb but you can kind of make out what's beyond it. Beyond it is a giant turtle from what I can remember. Also if you tried to run or jump up the slope you would slide down. I'm pretty sure you start in a house and then go outside and eventually find this cave but I'm not certain. Please help it would mean a lot to me. Thanks

Also the game was played on some sort of system attached to a tv I think. Also I'm pretty sure it was single player. Hopefully this helps! I've been trying to remember this game for soooo long.

Hi , I used to play this game like 10-12 years ago I think ?
It started off like in the main menu with a girl as a pirate and a sword and you were in the middle of 4 portals ,you had to choose a portal in order to play along , all which lead to a season in itself , spring , summer , autumn , winter.
It was kind of like 2d-3d can't really much remember it , but the enemies were like Eskimos in the winter part and there were husky dogs attacking you , you had to get past some traps/obstacles , the character swinged the sword in a rotary motion , the graphics were good.
it was kind of like Prince of Persia , tho it's not any of prince of persia's games , i checked , they are very similar.

Could it have been Cutthroat Island?

Hi guys, I have been looking for this game for ages, it's a 3rd person planet based starship battel simulator. It was a strategy style game with excellent customisable aspects. Played on playstation 2. Please help 🙂

Hello, looking the name of a kinda side scrolling shooter that I played sometime between 1995- early 2000.
It was an arcade cabinet but could have been a snes or sega etc game with joystick and buttons and had atleast 2 player option. I think the heroes used assault rifles or other guns to shoot the bad guys and collect cash and banknotes. And there was a boss which was a giant machine head that was moving and as the fight progressed it lost the skin and turned into a skull. There might have been a part where you hop in a car and drive it a bit?
Also there was a 4 player x-men cabinet and Splatterhouse 2 near if that narrows down the timeframe?
Also the camera angle was like in this random superman game: https://images.vice.com/vice/images/content-images/2015/06/22/when-video-games-about-superheroes-go-wrong-502-body-image-1434982047.png

Hi guys. I'm looking for the name of a game I remember to play when I was a kid. I don't know if it was actually a dream, but who knows. So, I remember it was a turn-based rpg with 3D graphics for PS2, with a dark environment. There was a red (or brown) haired kid, later on for some reason a dark clone of himself appears , who throws a curse or something like that to the kid and now he gets a horn on his forehead before the evil clone is gone. Then the kid tries to find that guy, fighting with monsters in the way. The evil clone was most likely the final boss of that world or something, since at the end you find him and fight him. I remember it was a rather difficult battle (or maybe I just sucked at the game lol). Sorry for the poor description, but that's everything I remember about it. Oooor maybe it was just a dream, I don't know. It was so cool!

Thanks for the help.

 

[viniciusvmt1998]

Hello guys.

First, sorry for my english, im not a native...

So, these days i was trying to remember a game that i played when i was 5-6 years old. Im now 19, so its been a long time ago.

It was for computer, and it was kind lika an adventure game, you should do the missions and complete the game.

So here is what i remember of it.

The character wear something blue and he got big hair (i think, i dont really remember it)
There was a Dragon in this game, and in some part of the game, the dragon get sick, and you got heal him. So you got found a item to heal it, and when the dragon its heal, some Heart come out of it, like an emoticon on top of dragon. (I think the item was a flute, but im not shure about it.)
There was 1 mission that i remember where it was something like inside a house, a room, or a castle, or something (i dont remember, i only know its inside somewhere), and you gotta walk trhough an invisible GROUND, and you got follow the right steps to not fall. And you got get to the other side. If like you gotta turn to right and you move to left, you fall and got start over again.
The camera of view in this game it was something like MU Online, you know? You see from the top of it...
Like this game: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--PcXFImJQ1k/VbfnkTgSz9I/AAAAAAACAfI/_TCpKboP0uo/s1600/Grandia%2BII%2BHD%2BEdition%2B-%2B07.jpg (the camera) I think this kind of camera its called Square, or something.

So guys, can you help me? I've been looking for this game for like years, and never founded... i tried a lot

Hmm, was it Smash TV? Technically not side scrolling (scroll between rooms?) and is a bit old for that timeframe (1990), but possible. Top down shooter similar in gameplay to Binding of Isaac, enemies do drop cash/tvs/toasters etc. There is a boss that matches your description, skull and all.

Hello I am trying to remember an old action/rpg game that I played a long time ago. I believe it had an isometric or top-down view where you controlled a single guy who could equip and use fire themed skills (at least in the first levels) like fireball etc. I remember later on in the chapters you encounter a brother-like figure (called Abel?) who kills soldiers with his lightning theme powers as part of a cutscene and maybe you are after him. I believe we were augmented soldiers of some sort. Gameplay was like moving around in maps with enemies to kill with your powers and traps to evade etc. Sorry not very descriptive I guess.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to remember the name of an old pc (CD-ROM) point-and-click game made for children, I guess around the age of 6-7.
I don't know exactly how the game worked, but this is what I can tell you:

- I think it was a 'drawn 2D-game', by that I mean the graphics were like Putt-Putt and Freddy Fish etc

- I don't think your character was a visible in-game character... I could be wrong

- The game had a Halloween-like setting, it involved creepy stuff:
* There was an evil witch I think, who perhaps was the main antagonist. She lived in a sort of castle, made of dark grey bricks I suppose. Perchance there was a pumpkin head figure, and there were surely skeletons around.

* There are 2 'places' in this castle I can remember:
1. The first was the 'roof', the 'courtyard' (however, it wasn't a garden or anything), the floor was made of bricks surrounded by the typical cylindrical medieval towers with typical brown wooden doors. In this game you had to find the keys to open the door.
In this courtyard lightning struck in on something, I don't remember how it all went down, but I do know the lightning was a part of the game in some way.

2. The second room was a typical witch's room. I suppose her cauldron was located here, although that could also have been in the courtyard... You had to brew something, of course. There were also books (a bookshelf) around. It was probably decorated with spiders and all that stuff.

- I fail to recall the exact purpose of the game; however, it surely had to do with the witch. You had to open certain rooms by finding keys, you had to brew something, ... It could even be possible that there were two witches...
It also could be that this whole witch-thing was only a part of the entire game, though I wouldn't know what happened in the rest of the game.


I'm sorry for not being able to remember that much information, and you probably should take what I said with a grain of salt, as around a century has passed since I played this game...

Thanks for helping me!

PS: As far as I can recall the witch looked like the typical witch, as in this: http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100802110824/banjokazooie/images/thumb/7/73/Gruntilda.png/250px-Gruntilda.png

This specific game I saw someone ask about on here, but the post is nearly 4 years old and no-one responded. I'm gonna edit it to what I know was in the game for a fact, but still need help figuring out what it is.

"(Some of these details may be distorted or not completely accurate but I'm going off of what I can remember.)

I remember playing this PC game around 1997-2001, and I believe it was through the old Jukebox Shockwave player. The character was a guy with long shoulder length hair, possibly like dreadlocks, that were ginger. He seemed to be an average guy on a personal mission, And I recall him having like goggles pushed back through the front of his hair, (I feel like I remember him wearing some sort of surgical mask over his mouth, unsure though) and he may have been dressed strangely (I seem to remember almost like his clothes didn't really match well).

The one important aspect is, during the intro, you're greeted by someone who's identical to you. He says something along the lines of, "I'm your great, great, great, great (Etc, it either goes on for a long time, or has a "a few hours later" transition)" grandfather/grandson.

The game was sort of pixellated looking, but the graphics weren't incredibly bad for its time. This guy had a ship and was exploring space, (I distinctly remember if you hit the 'edges' of space, you get a warning that counts down since its out of boundaries) but I can't remember if his ship crashed/ran out of fuel, or if he was simply adventuring various planets, but Its seems like there was the option to go to other planets almost like in star fox, but more 2d looking. Also, the only planet I can remember him exploring was this odd desolate sandy mars-like planet (Which could have been mars, or a made up planet). It was a somewhat puzzle-like game if I remember, you had to do specific tasks in order to progress. It was also a 2d sidescrolling game, but I feel like the characters might have had a bit more detail to them, similar to Abe's Odyssey. Other characters may have been around, but if so they were probably like weird cartoon-y aliens. If anything close to these details comes to mind, even if its not exact, please share. I'm so eager to find this game, and I hope someone can help."

Hopefully someone can help, I've been trying to remember this game for years to no avail.

Hi I used to play a game on PC about 8 years ago that I'm trying to remember the name of.

It starts off with you crashing on a strange planet. Your goal is to repair your ship with the debris around you so you can get off. It's birds eye view and it does that thing (I can't remember what this is called) where if you reach the edge of your screen it'll load for a second and show you on another screen.
I remember it was dark and spooky and the loading/menu screen was mechanical. The loading screen showed a gear to one side of the progress bar slowly turning.
I had it on CD and it was old enough that it didn't need internet at all for installing or playing. I played it on Windows XP.
I remember you could craft things together that you found, like a pistol and a tesla coil to make a laser gun or something.
Any ideas at all would help.

Cheers

Hmm, it sounds kinda like Notrium, with the view, crash, alien planet, possible victory condition might have been repair ship. You could craft pistols and parts to make laser guns, but last I recall it was freeware via digital download, so maybe no CDs? I dont remember the loading screen, but the Notrium logo is a gear.

So there's this game I used to play around 2007 on my pc but I can't recall the name..I don't remember much but I think you were a mouse(maybe there were multiple characters but definitely you were small) and the game started in a rat hole or something and you were wandering around in a big house and all the objects were huge. I'm pretty sure there were enemies you had to fight and you had some kind of gun. I remember climbing up on furniture and stairs, there were also different rooms like kitchen, living room etc. If anyone knows what I'm talking about pls let me know.

P.S. A friend thought it might be the tale of despereaux but that's not it.

Hi

Im trying to remember an old videogame (from 1997 or even before) that I played in pc, where the protagonist is a boy and he fights enemies like carrots and chips.

In the first stage its like he is at home, but then leaves and goes into the open.

I can't remember much more about it :S

 

[AwkwardWaffle]

Hi all, I'm trying to remember a game i used to play at my friends a LONG time ago.
I remember it was on a 3.5 disk and had a hex-tile map, gameplay similar to risk, the objective was to take over the map. There were elephants flying hot airballoons and lions flying planes, I believe, I could be wrong with what animals but there were definitely animals. . I can't remember the game name for the life of me
Oh and it was a turn based game vs the computer
Thanks!

There's this really old game that I used to play when I was a kid, I think I had the demo, and it was about some guys dressed in what I only can describe as "Halo Spartan suits" but it wasn't halo, it was on third person and you had to shoot aliens... the other thing that I remember is that whenever I died, the guy would say "I can't feel my legs" or something like that. I know it's a vague description, but I hope you can help me.

 

[Sabredufoil]

Alright, I have a tough one. Probably because I barely remember it, but I am hoping that posting here will help me out. So it was an overhead shooter game for the PS1 where you were a woman that got strapped to a bike or bomb or something of that nature. You had to kill these creatures via shooting them to extend your time before the bomb/bike blew up. The planet was red and looked radioactive (or something of that nature). I think one of the plot points was that a virus or something had taken over a small town? I can't remember much more about it, because I was really young when I played it. I'm hoping that I can get an answer or something will jog my memory.

Thanks in advance!

Ah, good old "Blam! Machinehead" (1996).
