Ok then, lets give this a shot.

Good day everyone.

The game i am looking for a while now is a bird view, real time, strategy game. You control soldiers that are sent on missions, and which you buy beforehand like mercenaries. Out all of the soldiers i for some reason remember one, that was called "Bodyguard" and used only a gun. Being absolutelly rubish at the game, i never really got far into the game, but the start of the first level i remember, and it included a sort of a passage made of shipment containers, and a guard was walking inbetween them. The containers were placed so that they made a Z letter shape, and the guard was stroling between those. All of the guards had a cone type of vision, meaning you could always see where the guy is looking, and it was basically a 90* angle, and you would sneak up behind them and shoot them in cold blood. Unfortunatelly that is basically everything i remember of the game, so you get it why i cant find it, i have literally nothing to reference it on.

I have little hope anyone can pinpoint the game with the provided info, but if somehow you manage then god bless dude, this has avoided me for a long time now. Many thanks.

Hello Friends!

Good day to all of you! This game I was looking for was an arcade game between year 1987-1992. Its like a robot with a weapon of grenade, laser or machine gun, a jump ability so it can jump much higher. Another weapon is i think PCR or PRC something like that. As far as I remember the first boss was like a big spaceship and you need to atleast have the jump option to hit it while on the air.

I really like this game when I was in elementary school but unfortunately my school allowance is limited and I can only afford to play 1 game. That time it cost 1 Ph Peso lols.

I hope someone can remember. Thanks in advance! :)
I'm having trouble finding single-player arcade games of it, but that sounds like it's part of the BattleTech series (sometimes called "MechWarrior"). "Jump jets" and "PPCs" are well-known pieces of equipment in that franchise. =)

I'm thinking of an educational (I think) children's PC game from the 90s. I'm guessing around 96-98, as I had about 3 games - this, Rayman and FIFA 98.

I remember very little of it but one of the aspects was a knight's jousting tournament. You answered questions and if you got them right you won the joust. It was quite cartoony, not pixelated like an arcade game.

I have a feeling the character in it was a dragon or a dinosaur. No idea what the questions subject was, may have been maths, language, or anything really.

Thanks

The gameplay is like gradius or lifeforce but you are just a little robot and it goes sideways walking forward. Also the same as gradius you have a menu where you can select weapon whether grenade, gun, jump, etc.

- its a PS2 game.
- there is a space station.
- the main character is some kind of cyborg that can switch one of his eyes out he also wears a space suit when he goes outside the space station (you have to equip it i believe)(you can explore inside or outside the space station).
- the game is set on space, i remember the atmosphere being like mars, red rocks all over the place.
- i think the enemies were robots.
- i think it is a 3rd person shooter

I remember a coin-op arcade game with (I think) a person flying a jetpack. Mid-eighties in Norway. Not Metroid. It was a scroller. You started out going right, and after playing for a while you turned up, then left, and then down. Futuristisc, metallig looking background. Enemies came out of openings i the walls, and there were stationary elements you could shoot as well. Some enemies you had to shoot red lights on to turn them off. You could turn left or right and move in all four directions.

Anybody know?

Hi! Please help, I remember a game from the 2000's (Don't think it was 90's but not 100% sure). It was where you play as a wizard boy who I think was wearing blue. You walked around and collected potions and I think spell books? My sister said you battled spiders although I don't remember that part. I think it was on the PC, possibly GBA or PS1/2 or something else. It isn't Simon and the Sorcerer. The graphics were less detailed, alittle more brighter and alittle more simple. I'm not sure if it was 2D sprites or very simple 3D. The view was sorta from above I think and the characters looked a bit short.
Hope that's enough detail, I was so young when I played it so I can't really be too sure about things. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you! :D
Found it! It's Spooky Castle Kid Mystic! :)

Hi everyone. The other day a game popped up in my head but god i don't remember its name. What i remember: There is a blue wizard it just talks to you i think and there are shapes like triangle and rectangle etc. Now in middle of the screen you have an empty shape like, house,flower,bench. You have to fill this shape and it becomes a 3d like thing like i said a house and so on. It also has a really beautiful soundtrack and it is from 2000-2009 i dont exactly know which year. It's not a big game and not really popular. If anyone knows which game it is please help. :"D im going crazy xd
I might be wrong hear, btu are you thining of Wizards 101? But I might also be really wrong... it souds very similar. (The choosing of shapes seemes like the character select)

Sooo, 2 games
One is a local coop game, you and your partner are a red and a yellow plane and it's like a 2d game and you encounter bosses occasionally, i don't think it's really old
The other one might be older, it's a platformer, you're some alien boi and you're supposed to rescue or collect or whatever some little green dudes, they then start following you to the spaceship you came in. Thanks in advance!

It's similar, but the gme I'm thinking of was a "forced" scroller, or what you might call it. The screen moved constantly forward in one direction, starting out to the right, then up, then left, then down and you were through.

It was a pixelated pc gamewhere the character was a bald guy in a green shirt i think. He starts off at a hub that looks like a dungeon or castle. He had some sort of brown hammer to break walls and sometimes had bombs to kill enemies. He went around dungeon like areas fighting various enemies, mostly skeletons and purple spiders. (maybe zombies too? Its hard to remember.) It was a pretty difficult game to play for me. Hope what i gave helps. Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, I really need your help to find this game:

It's a 3D game I used to play it on Windows 98 or ME, I think It's between 93-96 cause I got it once in a CD with Virtua Cop - Virtua Figther 2 - The House of the Dead - Bubble Bobble 2 and many other cool games.

There are 4 Colored fish to select and many areas like amusement park or ghost town, It starts with a huge square grid, We are standing on one side of a square, Initially, the sides are in black colour, we can highlight it (the color will be specified with the player's color ) by moving around the four sides of a square, we can obtain scores by highlight more and more squares, there are also some tools along the pathway, like making others square disappear, they have to make all over again, and there are some monsters, they move all over the square grid, they are blocking the players way and there are also weapons we can use. This game can be multi-played ... which is very awesome, and the graphics and everything in the game is nice as I can remember.

plz help me get its name, much thanks..

the game is live wire

So this is a huge shot in the dark but here it goes. Back in early 2000s i want to say, I played an online game that you could tell was hand drawn in black and white. It had something to do with a mostly bare tree and you had to finish doing something before all the leaves fell. There was a way to make more.leaves grow I remember. Also while playing this game different songs would play on repeat- the only one i specifically remember is People Are Strange by The Doors. It was definitely a creepier.game to some extent and very simple (though difficult to beat at the time).

Again this was just available online for free but no matter how i search it in in google I can't find it. Please you guys, you are my last hope here! Surely someone remembers. Any help is appreciated.

I'm looking for an old game not sure if someone else has asked about it or not with over 500 pages. But it was on PC it was a simple game back then and small today would be phone size I'm sure. But you owner a ship and you sailed from Port to Port buying as cheap as you could selling as high and prices changed depending on the city and as time passed however you also had to keep cannons on ship to fight off bandits and upgrade your ship size and more cannons ect. Will the cannons take up a large chunk of storage space not counting the price to fix your ship every time you got into combat but it was also fun I can't remember the name of it for the life of me I just remember playing it on Windows XP

Hi guys,

I am really trying to remember the name of 2 old strategy games. I remember the gameplay and stuff but not the name. Both are from early 2000's time may be between 1999-2005 time and both are PC games.

1)-

-This was a PC strategy game based somewhere other than earth, maybe in some other planet with futuristic weapons and units
-Had 2 factions if I remember correctly and you could select one before starting the campaign
-Had base building, resource gathering, all through machine like units.
-There were defense towers which if build near to each other, got connected automatically through lasers so that enemies couldn't enter your base if your base was surrounded by these defense towers.
-Flying units who shot lasers, land units, all had armors and stuff and looked futuristic, just like machines and robots.
-The environment was pretty plain and had some mountains and trees and terrain was up and down and stuff but didn't look like earth.
-Base building was an integral part and had all barracks and stuff etc.

Perimeter?

Hey guys! So, there was this game i played together with my ex when i was younger. It was a ps2 game where you played through each level while shooting enemies. It was a third-person shooter where you could play as 4 characters. You could change character whenever you wanted to and each "person" had their own picture and lifebar. But if you played coop you and your friend played as 2 of the guys while progressing the levels. I also remember a level where the characters got caught and sent to a prison in the desert. One guy gets interogated and the room explodes. (by either a missile or a rocket of some sort i think). Then he needs to go save the other guys 1 by 1 while they keep going through the prison, kinda like a prison break. Unfortunately thats all i remember from the game. But hopefully this was enough for someone to know what it is. Thanks in advance!
Haven't read all the posts up to now, so I don't know if it was answered, but that sounds like Conflict: Desert Storm, or perhaps another in that series. It's been a long while since I played it, so I don't really remember the specifics about the game anymore though
