Im looking for a PC game from the late or midd 90s, not sure.
I cant seem to remember the name of it or the plot that good. (was watching my cusin play it).
But it was with a baby that was going to some milk factory, you had to make sure that the baby came "safe" through diffrent stages. Through the living room, make sure it didnt go into dangerous traps, through the kitchen and backyard and so on. Can also remember a sound you often could hear, sounded like a dumpster closing or opening when you went from one room to the next.

hope it rings a bell in someones mind :D

Hello guys, the game that I'm trying to remember is and old PC game.
It was a car game, and the caracters are like Stasky and Hutch age style. Blackpower hairs and black souls style.
U put guns on your cars to complete the missions, and is allmoust an sandbox game. Your missions are in desert highways and are almoust the same, to kill some banddit car.
U could get out of the car too, and try to damage the enemies with a pistol, like that game Driver.

There is a game on the original Playstation that takes part on this arctic/antarctic facility...
Around the beginning of the game, you have this little floating robot for an ally but it eventually gets destroyed in some way. The enemies that you face are regular people, but I think there was some kind of disease or something around because they could change into these weird forms that had rough black hair, red eyes and grey skin. The indoor portions were in a research facility of some sort, and the outdoor portions were covered in snow. There was hand-to-hand combat and I believe that you had weaponry of some kind (laser/conventional firearms).

I also remember a room that had a giant gap in the floor you couldn't jump across, you had to solve some kind of puzzle to make it over to the other side. I'm also recalling wall terminals that you could use for various things.

It's one of the few games that I can remember playing, but can't for the life of me remember it's name.
Probably wasn't even all that good, but it's annoying to be able to recall exactly what it looked like and nothing else.

Sounds like Overblood. I never played this game, but you start out freezing and have to find a way to keep warm. You quickly team up with a small robot you name 'Pipo', and in this video at 2:30 might be the gap you couldn't jump that you described.

I've just spent the whole night trying to figure out a demo of a game I played in my childhood. For some reason I've been getting flashbacks to it lately, and not knowing the name is driving me mad. My vague memory of it involves a camp in a desert-like environment. It was an action-adventure game (if I remember correctly), with some RPG elements (perhaps). For some reason I'm reminded of Morrowind (even though it's definitely not Morrowind). I think it could be played from a first person perspective. The game came on a European PC game magazine demo disc, probably in the early 2000's. I remember it being PC Gamer, but it could have easily been another magazine. My memory of the game involves going around the nomad style camp area talking to various people. Once you left the camp (into a desert, I think), the demo ends.

This seems to be a rather old thread, but these dream-like flashbacks have really been bugging me the whole week. If anyone reads this and remembers any game vaguely similar to what I've just described, I'd be very grateful to hear about it.
I have the same memory of a game just like that, i can add a bit more if it's actually the same game. I remember that you could walk around through a desert like scenario and you had a home, you started at a house with a woman laying on a bed sleeping, if you attacked her a witch would appear and she would easily kill you. Also, the main character was a bit of barbarian like, he had long dark hair. But the part of being similar to Morrowind and being a demo from an european magazine I'm almost certain it's the same game. I can't remember the name of the magazine, I thought it would be pcgamer or something like that but can't find it.

Ah yes, that's it!
Thanks for that. I was thinking it might have been called something else or I grossly forgot what C-12 looked like.
Good to know it wasn't some mid '90s feverdream.

Hey people,

I used to play a PSOne Game where you were (inline) skating and could put bombs to kill the other players, the characters looked like animes and the arena was huge that means you could run (skate) away from other players or chase them

Sorry for my bad English but its very important to me to find this game!
Im unsure about this one but could it be "Silent Bomber"?

There is a game I really can't find.
It's a space type game, not sure what genre but from what I can remember it went like this.
You could play as Human or 4 other alien races, don't remember they're names but one was huge red aliens who loved war and battle but were not advanced, one race was yellow who were really advanced, the last I remember is a purple race, and you could play as a pirate and steal from other ships, transport stuff between planets, be a soldier, and also when you do stuff for the different races you get medals.
Also there were 3 different robot alien races who have control of some planets and sometimes several other cpu players would gather to try and free those planets, and when you destroy one of these alien robots you get some kind of coloured energy ball which you can trade for stuff, either money or go to the soldier/pirate/trader etc space station and get special stuff.
You could also do strategy battles on different planets or choose not to play those kinds of missions.
There are 2 games like this and i'm looking for the second one cause that's the one I liked best but I just can't remember any name from the game, Terran keeps popping into my head but didn't find anything about the game i'm looking for.
Oh one last thing, it was 2D like when you fly aorund in space but 3D when you do strategy fights on planets, and in space you see everything from above, also you could visit different planets either inhabited and get missions from the race that lives on the planet or a non inhabited planet and drop probes around to see if you find anything of value, lastly you could travel around only as far as the engine let's you, the better the engine the more parsecs you could travel.

Hi all,
I remember playing a game perhaps in the 8-bit era or something very close (no more than 16-bit), which is basically a platformer where main character is a little girl inside a robot (color redish and strong humanoid shape), the robot has a certain energy, after its finished its useless and then the girl should walk around on her own but she has so few energy that even weak enemies could kill her. I think the environment was something like a strange planet but as the graphics were very simple it has the aspect of first Super Mario games (SMB2 or so). Anyone know what game could this be? thanks for any clue =).

Hey The old game I'm looking for I forget the name I think it was called, Enomorph, Emomorph or xenomorph or something.

Its an ancient pc game like 15+ years old I guess, I remember the box art it was of a muscular man with a bare chest and long hair I think was blonde (but it was faded with no colour but you could tell)

He had a green transforming arm with little darthmaul head looking spikes comming out of it, he had a green glowing outline around him but that wasnt like his power was just box art and the background was completely black.

The game had the gameplay layout like baldurs gate or planescape torment, NOT the same gameplay or that thaco stuff or anything or strength+1 ect but the same look from above.

You pressed spacebar to punch and you could learn spells and stuff you started with a like blue fireball spell and an iron skin spell.

The main character wore an orange tunic and really nothing else and when you killed stuff it just popped into a pile of bones.

On the very first level/island you are doing a quest for this giant spider god thing but its like in your mind its not like anywhere to be seen, when you do all this trecking about you summon a giant green octopus out of the sea and that takes you to the main game/continant you play on.

This is about as much info as I can give If anyone played this please tell me and where i could get it and the name.

Hi. I'm sorry if this one's been asked already, but I'm thinking about an arcade game I used to play (once at an amusement park, the other at a mall) about ten years ago where a player assumes the role of either a blue or red character, competing in a variety of mini-games. I distinctly remember joking that the characters resembled Mega Man, and one could play multiplayer to compete with each other.

Sorry if that's not a lot to go on. Either way, thanks.

The game you're looking for is called Metal Fatigue.

Found this through copious internet searching, and I can only hope someone's played the same obscure game I have.

This is a game I played back in the early-mid '90s on an old Compaq (the system was Windows 95, possibly earlier). It was a simple adventure game with very basic graphics and no sense of perspective.

The MC was some manner of jungle explorer. The game starts out with him and a woman, who gets bit by a spider pretty quickly. The point of the game is to collect items in order to heal her. I recall having to cross a river at some point, but the main plot point I remember is the cannibals! I can't remember if you were doomed to be captured or if 5-year-old me was just doomed to failure, but the jungle explorer gets captured by cannibals and has to escape his cage before being thrown in the pot (old school racism at its best). If you're successful at collecting the items and getting back to the woman in time, the game ends with you saving her life and a helicopter appearing to take her to a hospital.

I *believe* the game came with the system (my family didn't have an internet connection, so it wasn't downloaded, and I know it wasn't bought). I played it around 1995/1996.

Hopefully someone has encountered this game!
This was definately Hugo 3, Jungle of Doom!

I NEED HELP!
Okay so when I was a younger kid I played a game on the pc where there were red balls falling and you had to shoot them with this stringy thing by clicking the space bar. When you hit the balls with the string they would get smaller and eventually get "killed." I think you we're a little guy and you used the arrow keys to move around shooting these red balls. Please tell me someone knows what I'm talking about.

old game my cousin lent me, it was probably inside a videogame magazine from italy, con cd-rom, played it on pentium 166, turn based rpg with isometric visual very similar to final fantasy tactics, more western than jap-rpg but still with square based grid, you impersonated some guy (probably a prince) on a journey, followed by a girl and a weapon master or something similar and maybe other friends, the game was almost only about subsequent battles, very similar to battle for wesnoth in this. I took my nickname from what I thought it was the game's title(and the main character's name): Drorian about 12 years ago but in all these years I haven't been able to find out anything about this game.
You think it could've been an italian only developer? I don't even remember if the game was in english...
Bump.. please I really need to find out where my nickname comes from :p

I can add the main character had a big sword, and he gained some special skill for every mission (battle), those were attack skills that for example damaged all the tiles in two lines convergent in a cross on the map, very unusual range (along all the map!) for this kind of games..
