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

Hi guys,

I remember playing a platformer in PSX, i think the main character is this smal boy that jumps ard and at some point there are eggs following him around, the can hatch in to all sorts of animals which aids us through the game..I really miss this game but forgot the title..

You're not thinking of Billy Hatcher on the Gamecube?

Okay so I used to play this game where I was this green creature thing and he would put his hands above his head and he could control other creatures. i remember him saying things like "hey" "wait" "follow me" in like a scratchy voice. i remember playing it on my windows 2000 pc way back when. he could control other creatures and make them do things like open doors for him and stuff like that. i also remember he would make a grunting sound when he was angry. i played it all the time but i cannot think of what it was called.

Oddworld: Abe's Odyssey.

Hey everybody. I'm in the need for some help. Sorry for the extremely vague description. Here goes.

Well, it was a PS2 game, and you played as a young boy (I think) who had a clawed glove (or something similar) on one of his hands, and I think it was stuck, as in it wouldn't come off. Now, I lightly remember something happening to his village or likewise, which started the adventure. I'm pretty sure it was third person, over the shoulder and had the serious style cartoon graphics. Thanks for your help, and I hope to hear from someone soon.

Haven? Could also have been Vexx.

YES! YES! Thank you! It was Vexx! Thank you so much! I've been looking for this game for ages. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The game I am looking for is an old pc game around 98/2000. I am pretty sure it was part of some sort of game pack disc. The goal was to cover each map with your color before the computer did using weapons like cannons and bombs I think. I remember one map was a donut shape. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Is that Risk, the board game?

No the weapons sort of shot blobs of color/paint on the map and you had to spread your color over the entire map to win. You had to keep putting more weapons to continue spreading your color because the other colors would try to overtake yours.

Hi i played a game a long time ago it was about some guy who aliens made take pictures of models and he had a blob of a substance that dissolved their clothes so he could take photos

This is a VERY OLD Game, that I doubt anyone will remember. But I will try as best as possible to describe it.

The System: Macintosh, IBM or DOS?

The Physical Game: Square "floppy" plastic Disk/Diskette? (http://quaedam.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/floppy8.gif?w=141&h=141)

The Game: Simple 8 Bit game in which you create your own "Dungeon Mazes" on a step by step level. Gameplay included creating small 'rooms' with keys in them that you had to unlock to get to the ultimate key. I think there were other things you could place together to make it difficult to solve. The game allowed you to play premade dungeon mazes (I think?) and the ones you personally created could be played out by your friends using your same computer.

All I remember is I played this game in the 90's, and its was nothing but text/8 bit graphics as thats all the technology the Diskette provided.

So I'm looking for a pretty old game.. I want to say at least 10-15 years old.. It takes place in space, so that should narrow it down some.. You can fly around in a spaceship, sort of like in Sinistar, while you're flying around you can find other ships, and sometimes the aliens you find may outright attack you, or may be in distress or give you something to do in space.. It's not Master of Orion, but the art style is similar.

There are two games that I have been looking for FOREVER. I can't remember the title of either of them, so maybe someone here can help...

First one I played in the mid 90's, maybe around 1995-1996 (could have been for computer or DOS possibly). It was a 2D game where you played as a humanoid ant that moved dominoes around on different platforms to solve puzzles, trying to knock them all down in one push. There were special dominoes with random abilities, like splitting in two when hit, or reversing the direction of the knock down.

The second one was a computer game (again maybe DOS) that I played around 1998-2000 (no idea if it was older than that). It was on a board similar to chess/checkers, but your pieces were an element (air water ground or fire) and you started with 3-5 pieces in one corner. It was a 2-4 player game, and you had to win by eliminating your opponent's pieces. I remember if you moved once with a large elemental you would leave behind a small one, and small ones could be combined into big ones. You could also move your large elemental 2 squares, but leave no small one behind.

Any help would be appreciated!

In elementary school there was a program that was installed on the school computers. I remember one feature was that you could make cards, and to make the border, you could "stamp" little objects such as a smiley face or a flower. Anther feature was a game type thing where you could switch/mix and match the head, body, and feet of different characters. People will probably think I'm crazy, but I've been dying to remember the name of this educational computer program. I first used the program in kindergarten, so I figure the game came out at least in 1998?

 

[jjohnnyr]

ok i got another game im trying to remember andthis is really vague but original enough to narrow it down i think.
Its a shooter were you used balls as ammo, and it was for PC, think it was the 90s but could be later.
thats the only thing i remember...


and another i posted not long ago that i didnt get an answer to.
Its 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

Thanks in advance^^

Oh yeah! Also, the game was more focused around actually exploring than any sort of strategy.

I remember playing a first-person point-and-click adventure game that had no color. It started off in a space ship; you would click on levers and doors to progress to that area. It wasn't a room escape or anything, there was no particular goal in mind. You just explored. You could go into mouse holes, kitchen sinks, really anything that looked like an opening could lead anywhere. Oh, and the game had no color, and I believe the spaceship was parked in a fish nebula. That is, the nebula was a giant fish. I appreciate any help finding the name of this game.

Any clue what system it was for? Or what era of PC you played it in?

PC/Mac game. Had to be before 1990, due to the dot-matrix printer look of the graphics. I keep thinking it was a LucasArts or Sierra game, but a search through a list of their games wasn't fruitful. I may have played it on an old Apple II.

That sounds like Cosmic Osmo.

Hey Guys!

I dont remember a game that I used to play when I was child. It was around '98 or maybe 2000.
I only play with the demo version of the game. You could choose from different caracters (an ALIEN, MONKEY, KENGUROO, and I remeber to a woman or something).
In the first level you had to climb on a big building to reach the helicopter on the top. You had to race.
You could throw things to each other while you was climbing.
Thats all I remember. Thank you if you can help me!

that is the exact game that I am looking for too..
it is not Crazy Climber , it is not Rampage

but I remember one more thing about it: it doesn't only have climbing stages
it also has a stage where you have to knock out other characters from a 3D platform , a kind of ring
the game had a championship feel to it

I hope some1 here will know this game because it is making me crazy that
I do not remember anything about it and I can't find any information about it
I really hope some1 knows whhat it is

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eW1DAZbOuTk
I think its that

 

[hushus46]

Guys, i dont know what to say really

I have this game in mind, finding it again will bring tears to my eyes!
I played this game everyday when i was 8 or 9 (I'm 16 now)

Basically:
Its a PC game
Windows 98 or most likely xp
I dont think it was famous or really that known, my uncle gave it to me on like a burned (not literally) disk
So basically from what I remember
it had a japanese theme to it i think, i might be wrong
I think you started in some dojo
It was a 3d first person btw
you had blonde her i think?
i feel like the game starts with an s
i think you shot fireballs or something
you would ride this huge pink thing or some really weird creature to different islands where there were different types of monsters
im pretty sure there were like potions, and a shop
also im pretty sure u had to buy the game to save, i probably had a demo
It's not a point and click though, its like a shooter in a way
Please help me, i knw it is a vague memory but pleaseee!

Today I dreamed about this game that I played about 10 years ago:
It was a DOS game, 1st person shooter and you play inside an armored car. Each level was an arena and I think the objective was simply to kill all the other vehicles. I think it was possible to go outside your own vehicle but you were a lot more vulnerable this way, although it was necessary to pass some levels.

I think it is from middle 90s since I bought it in a PC magazine in early 2000s but it was already a bit old. It came in a CD and the graphics remember me doom or descent. I have in my mind that the name of the game was necro something.

cheers!

After just finish posting this I manage to find the name of the game: Necrodome!
