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. =)
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.
Probably a long shot, but maybe Atomic Robo-Kid [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5f7CDeURwM]?

EDIT: ok, nevermind. Glad you could find it.

This is an old PC Disc game which is very similar to TRINE.

Hi guys, I'm looking for a game that I played when I was young. It was a side-scrolling CD game on PC platform in the year of 2000s may be(or 1995-2000), actually I don't know about the release date of it. Just because of the graphic design doesn't look like the quality made in 21st century.

I've tried my best to remember most of the game details but I cant remember the name of it. Yeah its totally ridiculous that I remember lots of details besides the game name.

The starting animation is talking about a man was locked in a tower in the sky, a mage(maybe?) casted magic to free him.

Although the game is side-scrolling game, it looks like 2.5D. The background is 2D picture but your character and the enemies are 3D image. It is a kind of adventure game, and you have a health bar and mana bar on the top left hand corner.

In the game you can choose 3 types of character, a young man with sword, a young girl with staff and a man using two-handed axe.
I remember some of the default button which are "Z" and "X", "Z" is using a light attack and "X" is a heavy attack.
There are several types of magic you can use, fire , ice, lightning and recovery.
Each type of magic divided into 5 levels, I only remember fire and ice.

Fire L1: Single fire ball drop on a single enemy (Auto targeting to nearby enemy)
Fire L2: Fire burning on the left side of right side (depends on character facing direction)
Fire L3: Lava blast at all enemies position
Fire L4: Large explosion (Area of effect)
Fire L5: Fire from the fire phoenix (Area of effect)
Ice L1: Ice Spikes appear at a single enemy's postion (Auto targeting to nearby enemy)
Ice L2: Ice Spikes appear at all enemies' position
Ice L3: Ice wall created on the left side of right side (depends on character facing direction)
Ice L4: Ice Storm (Area of effect)
Ice L5: Ice Age (Area of effect)

And here are the stage and the boss that I try my best to remember.
Stage 1 - Forest, boss: rock golem
Stage 2 - Floor 1 , I forgot what that thing is.
Stage 3 - Below 1, boss: ice drake
Stage 4 - Below 2, boss: 2 ghost (looks like female) share 1 BOSS health bar
Stage 5 - Below 3, boss: skeleton mage(necromancer)
**And this boss I think it is a main enemy of the game because my character need to talk to him before battle.
Stage 6 - Floor 2, boss: a flying, upper body, large skeleton with both scythe-shaded hand(hand bone)
**Actually it looks like a skeleton reaper, but it is flying and only have upper body
Stage 7 - Floor 3, boss: fire drake
Stage 8 - Below 4 , I reach to the middle only.

One more thing there are 5 different BGM in the game. Each of them is used for Stage1-5 respectively. And Stage 6 use the first BGM and so on.
I just only remember the stage name and the last stage that I reached is 8.
Please help me with this, it is a memory for me and I try my best to remember the details of it.

I remember playing a game, olde game (maybe before 2000)

It started with the world being threatened by a comet or meteorite
The world ( I guess) sent up a team to blow it up.
When they got there the crew landed on the meteorite and they started going crazy slowly.
One of them just went silent and stared out over a valley ( I think)
It was mostly puzzles, as I dont recall any combat.
And the main character (Him?) wins in the end...
I think he has to kill everyone else first though... dont know how if no combat
If you know this please let me know!

Sadly no, I remembered an additional fact.. it was a 2d environment similar to that with more realistic graphics and natural physics. it also looked way better. it was for the pc for sure.

That was probably either LEGO Stunt Rally or Island Xtreme Stunts. If not, here's a big list of LEGO games.

First of all, thanks for your reply!

Unfortunately that game seems to not be listed there, I think its because that game was in a cereal box back in the day.
For example: "LEGO Sports 2003" was also in a cereal box and that game isn't listed there either. That game was hard to find. :D

maybe some germans that remember my game? :(

cheers slicky

I'm looking for an older game, possibly a PS2 or Dreamcast title where there's a camera setup similar to that of FF7, there's a group of characters that are all wearing bug/dragon themed armor and are running through a forested area.
The leader, I presume, was wearing this vibrant green armor. From what I remember, the armor was pretty shiny and the visuals were really nice.
It was a 3D RPG...that's all I really remember.

EDIT: There's a possibility of it being Legend of Dragoon, but I have my doubts.
I remember the characters all traveling together through the forested area mentioned earlier...it could have been from a cutscene.

It was an old pc game, must be at least 15 years old now
It was a general platform game with two hunchbacked troll/ogres, one green, one blue
When you jumped you hit the floor above you, damaging the monster and killing by walking over it, there were also boss levels
It is a bit of a rip off of Mario, it even had a 'POW' but in this it was called 'TNT'
I 'think' the name was 'head' related e.g. headbut or headach but i could be wrong
Please help
Cheers

You guys are doing some holy work here. I tried to make an account just for this thread. Then found out I already had an account from way long ago, back when Unskippable was still... You know what? Doesn't matter.

Anyway, here's a tough one. I remember a game on, I believe it was the original PlayStation, that I haven't had the chance to play in probably over 15 years, ever since I was maybe 5, 6 years old. It was this kinda anime-ish, sidescroller, shoot-em-up game, kinda like Mega-Man X, where you play as a little girl who can jump... Probably about 10 times her height.

It might've been a Japanese game, I feel like I distinctly remember not understanding a single word anyone was saying. Anyway, all the details I've mentioned are kinda fuzzy at best, hell, she might've just been able to fly in short burst like Tails from the Sonic series... But there's two scenes I remember vividly.

At the beginning of the game, you're kinda locked in this small area almost the size of the screen (the theme "destroyed highway" comes to mind, broken concrete everywhere), and the way out was a small hole on the right that you had to crouch to get through. I remember this hole because it took me WAY too long to figure out I could crouch (I was young and didn't know how to video games, give me a break), and I was stuck on this part for a long time since I couldn't go anywhere else.

The second scene I remember, there was this boss fight where I was on top of a limousine as it tore down the street. The screen was covered in bullets (or maybe I just remember there being a lot because I sucked and died there a lot), and the big guy shooting them was floating around the screen making himself all hard to hit.

I know this isn't a lot of detail, but it's all I can remember. I got to play it as a video store rental over the weekend, and I never saw it again. Please, if anyone can help in the slightest, you'd be bringing little kid me back to one of those few 'games that got away' kinda moments.

Hi guys!

this one i tough, i don't remember the name of a PC game i was playing when i was a kid.
Around 1994-1996, its kinda look like "Crusader: No Remorse", so a isometric shooter, cooperation 2 player was possible (i played it with my brothers)
ambient is futuristic and the whole world is ruled by robot-looking womens.
One of the player (also robot-looking) is white the other is orange red.

please help me!

Thanks
Andreas
what i exactly mean is that more than robot looking, the characters in this game has a kind of robot suit, the enemies once shot falls on the ground losing its helmets and there you can recognize that they are females. Its definitely look like "Crusader: No Remorse" but the characters are smaller seeing from an isometric aerial view. I also remember some details in the ambience...a futuristic city and you walk into buildings full of technologic stuff, and people on computers.

PLEASE HELP ME! ;)

It's this old business tycoon from the 90s where you started in the early 1900s (maybe the 20s?) and had to fill a town's street with shops (restaurant, jewelry, shopping mall, etc), except in other streets some shops would perform better than others (jewelry sold more in rich neighborhoods, per example). Over time you'd advance in years (60s, 70s, 80s up to I think "futuristic" 2000s) and as you did, you'd unlock new kinds of shops, upgrades for 'em, some shops would lose popularity and you could even spread your empire to other streets of town. It had a pretty good depth for such an old game, and I'd like to play it again sometimes.

Hello everyone! Really need help with finding a game, I'm pretty sure it was on PSone and I was playing it in 2000s. The game is 2D cartoon style and is a bit like visual novel with the main character being a dude with long hair trying to escape from the monsters in the mansion. The only way to control the character is by repeatedly pressing a button. I also remember there was a short monster person with a hook hand. please please help. Thanks!

Well heres a challenge for yall, I been thinking of this fairly old game (probably atleast 10 years) it was playable on the browser, and I believe it was turn & tile based as well as online, the main thing I remember about it is that it had a TON of factions, I created dozens of accounts because every time you made a new account you got a different race/faction...there was probably a way to change the faction without making a new account but I was too young to know how. There was a treant facion and a werewolf faction if I recall, and many more. but sadly this is all I can recall about the game but I had so much fun on it as a kid getting my butt kicked by other players.
