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

[FriedChicken97]

There is this game that I've been trying to think of the name of for a while now, but I just can't seem to find it. The game isn't old or anything as I have only just played it within the last decade and I have absolutely no idea what console(s) it is associated with. First of all, I think it has a Japanese name (I'm not totally sure on this, though). Secondly, it is a four-player game, in which you fight the other players (I could be wrong with this though and you have to fight NPCs) whilst completing certain mini-games (my memory is too vague to give even a short description but I think one of the mini-games involves fighting on a boat of some sort). Help with this would be much appreciated as I have a terrible memory and it has been bugging me for ages![/quote]

You didn't mention which console/pc this was out on, but it sounds kind of like Power Stone 2?

Nah sorry, I think it was either Xbox or Ps2 idk, I have a really bad memory, but I seem to remember one of the lines the director said (because the game was kind of set in a movie studio sort of thing) was 'And.. that's a wrap' or something like that every time you completed a minigame. This is all I can remember and I am getting really frustrated because I can't find a single thing about it on the internet.

^Help would be really appreciated!^

Probably Fuzion Frenzy, a launch title for the Xbox. At 10:00 in this video might be the boat fight you were talking about.

Maybe it's Bleach Blade Battlers 2nd. The game was all in Japanese, four-players, PS2 game.

I've one like this and it's been bothering me for a couple of years.
It was a PC game, that I played on my father's computer that was running Windows 95. Must've been around...'96 or so?
It's...hard to describe. You'd pick a vehicle (basically a lookalike of a car, a motorcycle, or a tank...thing, only they looked like something out of Tron), then drive around a 3D landscape and shoot at other vehicles. It was played in first person perspective, and the first level was called 'Badlands'. As you can probably take from that, it was essentially a giant wasteland, and you'd drive around shooting enemies. I can't remember if I ever beat the first stage.
I had another game like this too that'd bothered me for a while, but I actually found out that one's name- it was Terminal Velocity, another PC game from around the same time.
But the one with the Badlands and the cars...I really don't remember it's name at all.

Okay they game I'm looking for is an old PC game from mid 90s to early 2ooos. You were an alien (I believe green, my dad thinks red). I don't remember much about the actual game, you were walking around and trying to avoid bugs or animals I believe. But during the bonus levels you were falling through outer space and you tried to aim for the coins or jewels and catch them while you fell. I've been searching for this for years, if anyone has any ideas I would love to know. Thanks!

I remember playing an old side-scrolling platformer/shooter on either DOS or Windows 3.1. The first level was in a couple of office buildings and in the second you had to jump from tree to tree in a forest. I think most of the enemies were monsters/aliens. The third-level boss was a big floating head, and the fourth-level boss was a big humanoid frog or something like that. That's where the gameplay ended because I'm pretty sure it was a demo or shareware version. That's all I remember now, maybe more will come to me later.

Edit: I found it: it's called "Bio Menace."

I got a couple of games that i just cant seem to remember, any help would be greatly appreciated.
so here goes, sorry if its a little vague
First game is a vertical shooter space invader style where you are playing in one screen at a time, you play as a flying dog with big ears and a horn and shoot towards enemies i think one enemy is a bee and theres some kind of boss later on, also i think i remember enemies dropping powerups in form of potions or elixirs.
btw think its from around the 2000s mayby before dont know and its a pc game.

The second game is a dig dug like game where you play as a criminal or fugitive and i think theres police monsters or people that are the enemies, and think you drop rocks on them by digging up to it but can kill yourself if you stand under it, pretty sure its a pc game and also i think its around the 2000s mayby early 90s.
sorry cant remember more

and another one im pretty sure no one knows about is a game with a top down veiw on a maze kind of look, it has something to do with mice, trapping them, killing them dont know...
My mind keep saying mousetrap, but thats not it i think.
It was on a disc with more games, another game on the cd was a game where you drove a monster truck(not looking for this, just a refrence if anyone had the same CD) if that helps.
also PC

Thanks in advance^^

My guess would be Kung Fu Chaos. Might be wrong though as I've never actually played it.

Here is a tough one for you

Back in say, 1984/85, played this game at school in New Zealand.

Basically you were trapped on an island of some sort and you had to survive. It was top down view only, same screen all the time, and you could move your guy around to cut down a tree, catch fish, light fire etc.

Idea was to survive I guess, eat enough fish, chop down the tree to light a fire or build a raft to the little island on the screen that had more resources, and sleep in your cave.

Good luck

THANK YOU SO MUCH RAPTOR IS THE GAME!!!!

 

[Ellie Butts]

this is driving me nuts but i remember this one game i had on the pc where the main character is a bug, i think a woodlouse? and you can roll into a ball and hit other bugs and stuff. i can barely remember what the goals of the game were but i think you had to collect coloured keys? and they opened doors or cages or something that lead you to different areas.

i vividly remember the title screen though there was some branches and the bug you played as was standing in the middle of the screen

man this is so vague....

 

[SurroundedByBoshtets]

I've been going crazy for the past two weeks trying to remember this game I played with my brother when we were kids, ugh.
I can see it in my head, but I can barely describe it ;__;

I think it was first person and you had to travel to places like Venice (at least I think it was, I only remember having to go everywhere by gondola) and collect these things????? maybe???
There was a scene where you have to pour water on a statue of a goddess(i think?)
uh there was a dude helping you maybe, he had an accent, maybe British?
uhm.
OH I THINK YOU TRAVELLED BACK IN TIME?????
I can remember a bit about one part where it was like you're in the mountains, maybe the Himalayas?
it's snowy and you're on the side of a mountain on a small path and there's Buddhist statues everywhere.

I can't remember if it was a game I played on the computer or on a console.
Had to have been late 90s, early 00s

The third game might be the game Rats!, which was all about getting rid of all the rats that were breeding in the maze, with gas, poison, bombs, gender-change, etc =P
I think I might remember the second game too, but what it was about, how it played and what it's called slips my mind..

Thanks dude, you were spot on! I'm a bit disappointed now that I found out it isn't backwards compatible with the Xbox 360, especially after all that time I spent searching the Internet!

Need help identifying a game

It was a multiplayer game i think on PS1 where you you were tanks either blue or red and each team had these pylon tower type things and i think they zapped you? the game was set in a grey maze type environment. Its really bugging me what the game was. Any help or a point in the right direction would be appreciated!

Kung Fu Chaos.

It was a really good game actually, I think Microsoft have missed a trick by not releasing a HD XBLA version for 360, it'd sell like hot cakes.

edit: Damn, ninja'd (no pun intended)

The maze bit makes me think of Battle Rigs.

The zapping Pylons sounds like Command and Conquer or Red Alert.
