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

[Midwoka]

Hello Everybody! I've been trying to put back my old N64 game collection I had as a kid (my house was robbed around age 8 or so and I lost all nintendo 64 games). The game I cannot remember is a vehicle/battle game I used to play with my siblings. You could pick up different weapons and there was an announcer lady that would announce things during the match. One of the things I remember most about it was a power-up/weapon called "Railgun" it was basically an auto turret for your vehicle, and the announcer lady would announce it when you picked it up. I know this is a long shot, but I am out of ideas. Thank you in advance for any help!

It sound like Vigilante 8 [http://www.mobygames.com/game/n64/vigilante-8] but i'm not 100%?, I don't recall a lady announcer.

My other suggestion is Carmageddon 2 [http://www.mobygames.com/game/n64/carmageddon-2-carpocalypse-now] but that feels wrong, but its here in case it is :S

My immediate thought was Vigilante 8, too, but I also didn't remember an announcer in that...

The big question here: was the game just fighting in an open arena like Twisted Metal and Vigilante 8, or was it a racing game with weapons like Mario Kart and Wipeout? If it involved racing, I'd suggest Extreme G 2 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDCufpfwblc] (skip to 36:20 in the video to hear her say "railgun"). =)

I remember an old PC graphic adventure game where the main character made his living fishing in the ocean. I don't remember a whole lot from it other than I recall needing to get gloves to pull either conches or urchins or something out of the shallow waters, and there was a deep sea fishing rod that I needed to go out and get sharks. My memory is incredibly hazy past this though so it's really gonna be a challenge finding it. If anyone can figure it out I will forever be in your debt.

That reminds me of the Breath Of Fire games, though they were mostly on consoles rather than PC. I know the first 4 games all had fishing in them, and I remember gathering urchins for bait in the first one. The main character in all of them has blue hair, if that rings a bell?

No this one was definitely a PC game, and I think the plot revolved around fishing. It sounds boring as hell but for some reason I very vaguely remember enjoying it. I also remember I could only get so far into it because it was a shareware trial. I'm usually really good at finding old games I've played based off of vague recollection, so this one is absolutely driving me nuts.

I am looking for a Windows PC game from my childhood, probably in the early 2000s. Everything I remember is very foggy but I am going to give as much detail as possible. It was set in a medieval fantasy sort of era and action RPG kind of game. I believe in first person and I remember in the early portion of the game, you enter a castle and are running around the sewers fighting goblins and dodging arrows from large crossbows. I definitely did not get very far into the game because I was very young. I think the disk box was grey and blue coloured and there may have been a man or skeleton on the outside.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I have sorted through huge game lists with no luck.

Hi guys. There's this game I played in ~2010, but I can't recall the name of it.
It is an escape & adventure pc game. I somehow had that game on my desktop back then.

So basically, this guy, I think with a green t-shirt, is in his room, trying to go to bed.
He wakes up and leaves his room, but he isn't in his house anymore. He is somehow in another planet (or I think in a spaceship or something).
He attends this weird assembly where other people and aliens get brainwashed.
So this game is basically about him trying to escape this weird planet and go back to planet Earth.
In the game, there's a burger restaurant, an amusement arcade, and other buildings where you need to enter and find out passcodes and get hints from.
At one point, you meet this alien doctor.
I think at the end, he either returns to his home or it turns out that it was all his dream, but I am not 100% sure.
This isn't a shooting/action game; its main focus is wandering around, collecting the clues and go back to his home.

Can anyone please help me??? I remember the gameplay, but I don't remember the name...

The Witcher 1 had sewers and goblins and stuff like that.
Also check Enclave (2002).

Hello everyone.I am trying to find a PC game about 10 years ago.
It's fps(first person shooter) and tps(third person shooter) game with dark fantasy.(Just like heretic and heXen)
Role in the game uses crossbow and melee weapon at the first set out.
Hexagonal items rotate on the ground and have three colors.Purple item could cause explosion and blue item could summon blue lightning.
Picking up bottle could recover HP.
To open door to next area,role needs to push squared buttons in the map.Sometimes,role must dive to push them.
By the way,I can choose difficulty when starting playing it.
The drawing is my impression of the game: https://imageshack.com/a/img924/3484/7vfpCe.jpg

If anyone know this game,please help me.Thank you a lot!

My first thought was Heretic [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Heretic], but you said that one, so I believe the game you're looking for is Strife [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Strife]. The first two weapons are the Punch Dagger [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Punch_dagger] and the Crossbow [https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Crossbow].

EDIT: It also could be Orcs & Elves [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orcs_%26_Elves].

Hi everyone so i'm looking for this flash game that i used to play when i was little and it was set in a sort of japanese school and that it was a side scroller. I remember that you had a sort of aura around and that it would grow the more girls you defeated, the game was a sort of beat em mal where you had to win the heart of your crush, i remember that there was multiple games like this one but I cant remember anything else. If anyone finds this flash game it would be awesome

Alright, I need help finding a childhood game (arcade game) that I believe was made in the 90s. It was a top down shooter similar to Space Invaders. You play as a little boy on a hoverboard that allows you to move side to side on the bottom of the screen. You shoot a lazer gun and kill aliens and mechs, I think (my memory is a little foggy so I'm not 100 percent sure on the finer details). I distinctly remember it saying it was made in Mexico so it might've been a english port from Mexico, I'm not sure. Also the boy wore a reddish/orange hat, I don't know why but that always stuck out in my mind. I played this at a Whistle Stop Station daycare center in Rowlett, Texas. I only say that on the hightly unlikely chance that someone that has ever went there may have played the game and can tell me what its called. So uh... Yeah, please tell me what this game is called so I may have the hope of playing it again one day.

Looking for a third-person, pseudo-sci-fi, noir my mom played sometime between 5th and 7th gen. The setting is a near future urban city and, if memory serves right, the protagonist is female. The story is fuzzy, but there's a supernatural element of some sort; perhaps psychic
force powers? This mid-tier, AA game is apparently so unremarkable there is no evidence of its existence on Metacritic, Eurogamer, or Gamewise.

Thanks for your help!

Helluu there, I'm here to ask u guys if you know an old game that was: multiplayer with levels and you had to fight some creatures to get the level. You were riding on some monsters and travelling around the world and stuff. It was on Miniclip but now it's not anymore and I don't remember the name.. Please, I really need it. Also there was a monster feline you were riding and its attack was fire breathing and using the front paws (i only remember this one). Please mates :<

Good evening fine people. I was hoping for a little help as I am looking for a game. It was an older pc title from mid to late 90's. Fantasy setting, overhead view when you were in a map and after you finish a map it was a staticish town view where you could hire mercenaries and equipment for yourself and mercenaries (armor as ludicrous as crystal armor even). You had a hero that carried with you from map to map and there was a story line of sorts though I don't remember it. I recall using goofy magic missile spells that were multicolored as well. Thank you if anyone has any hints!

Looking for a old pc game. You are playing as a robot with multiple weapons: lasers, rockets and miniguns. You can jump in and out of several type of mechs: Flying mechs, Ground based mechs and so on. There are several element of base building and sometimes AIs control other mechs too.

Neither strife nor Orcs & Elves is the game I am looking for.The game I am looking for is real 3D game and has no sci-fi style in it(I think its engine is UDK or id tech 2),such as heretic 2 and American McGee's ALICE
Thanks for your replying!
By the way&#65292;one monster will spitfire in the game.Its hands have something like mouth&#65292;and it is so ugly that I can't forget

What C64 80-90's game was this? You have to search walking streets for motorcycle parts, character is from a german(?) cartoon, heavy rocker, you can mosh by pressing joystick button and pull stick back.

Hi, I I'm looking for an old game that I played with windows 98. There was a green character with blue mantle with an helmet that rotates over himself and he had to rescue his friends. It was a platform game. I remember that in the first level there where waves and in a forest environment at night.
the character was like this sketch --> http://pocho2.altervista.org/IMG_6133.JPG

"The Adventures of Lomax" (1996), aka. "Lomax" (if you're in Europe).

Hiya. New to the thread. I've got one that's been making me scream in frustration cause I can't find it. So here goes.

I can only remember vague details. It was on PC, very late 90s or early 00s. I think it was a sort of puzzle, minigame collection type thing set in a sort of hotel. As far as I remember, you completed all the games on one floor to move to the next (my memory is a bit foggy on this).

There is one bit I remember clearly though... in between floors there was this elevator, and there were these two bellhop dudes that looked like sock puppets (I think they were sock puppets... they might have been something else). While you were in the elevator they'd say stuff to pass the time - the one I remember was a hideous dad joke, "why was six scared of seven... cause seven eight nine."

That's all I can remember about this game, and I probably got a lot of those details wrong too. Maybe someone'll know.
