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

Alright, I've been googling like crazy and nothing's turned up. You're my only hope left, Escapees!
- I used to play a demo of this game with my brother.
- The protagonist was a male human, who woke up on a snowy alien planet, but he's in a bed. (perhaps with amnesia?)
- He has a headache when he wakes up and vocalizes that.
- There is a brown alien there. He calls him a strange name and likes to say that name, as he says it every other damn line of dialogue.
- The alien trains you at the beginning of the game, it's in a snowy village. I think there were three trials, but I only remember two.
- One trial is shooting pots with a laser gun. The other I remember is having to take some fruit that the alien places somewhere, but you cannot be seen.
- The fruit was placed near what I thought to be a port-a-potty as a kid.
- I NEVER got past the sneaking bit. I always got caught and the alien would say the weird name and set you back to the beginning.
- There was a stargate-esque ring in the village, the advert when closing the demo said how you would visit all kinds of planets with that ring. I'm not sure if it was a stargate game, but I don't think so.
- This is a PC game from pretty way back. I'm not sure, but I think it's over 10 years old.
That's pretty much all I remember. If anybody knows what the heck I'm talking about, I would be much obliged.

I was searching many time for this game:
You start as robot at a city you can destroy flying cars kill people i think too and smash things on the floor like phone stands and etc you can even hold flying car and throw it and as you keep making those crimes police coming to attack you...
As you kill more of them stronger flying robots are coming and at the end you get to kill the boss you also gain money and can buy more weapons and if you die you start all over oh and i forgot there are people that you fly near them and press enter to make mission...I remember i passed the first city to other city after killing the boss (giant robot) and then i died there always.. anyway i remember all of this game expect its name -_- so i will thank so much for who will find the name for me.
BTW its 2D and it was realased maybe between 2000-2005...
Thanks from advance!!!

I got two.
One is a mainly point and click adventure game (educational maybe considering that I played this during computer class) that is about you going through the amazon river. you have to stock on food and water, and you can visit many people, mainly amazonian tribes. i remember one part where there is a scumbag person who will steal your stuff, and one of my classmates found a way to not let the guy steal from you. My guess that this game came before 2007.
the other game is a racing game based around the stone age/cavemen with cartoon graphics and places like ancient china, Egypt, and maybe rome. You could select cars with different levels of things like speed. I remember playing this in elementary school and I saw it once on an apple ad of sorts.
If any one of you know the name I will greatly appreciate it.
Edit: I now know that the second game is Cro Mag Rally, released in 1998. Downloaded it on my Ipad. Ahhh, all those great memories of playing in Crete, Great Wall and Desert.

I'm so glad I found this place. This game has been in my mind for years, but I have no idea what it's called. I believe I played it on an Apple IIe, but I could be wrong about that. It was displayed in green screen. The avatar was a squat human icon. I think you wandered through a castle or a dungeon, there were thick walls on either side. You were given a sword and a shield, I think. And monsters randomly appeared - the only one I can remember is a griffin. The game has to be older than, say, 1990 or so. I can't remember much more than that, but I played it all the time as a kid. I will be so grateful if this rings a bell for someone else!
My childhood memory's probably a bit muddy, but if anyone thinks they can recognize this game I'd be very grateful 
I played it around pre 2002. I think..
It was a Sci-fi future theme, first-person-perspective game.
The Player's goal was to pilot a space train/truck to the next port while avoiding and fighting off various police ships.
Your ship was locked to a set of rails, there were walls to either side of you and you were always moving forward. You had to decide which direction to go when forks in the track came up.
You were attacked by various police vehicles that would fly onto your screen, which you could destroy by aiming and firing lazers with your mouse.
The most common enemy was a police robot drone shaped like a lollipop with a square head and flashing police lights on top.
The next enemy up from that was a police ship shaped like a semi-circle with two cockpits on the flat side.
The most dangerous enemy was a large dark-yellow ship called a 'Scorpion'.
You only ever saw profile pictures of characters in the game. I think your character had a trucker cap.
The game had a lot of CDs, and came in a multidisk jewel case.
Any help greatly appreciated, I've been looking for a long time.

Appreciate your expertise on this forum and apologies if this has already been addressed...but looking for the name of a NES game I vaguely remember from the 80s. You had the choice of a dozen or so different characters with different weapons to fight your way through multiple overhead view boards (shooter like Commando or Gunsmoke). If a character died they were no longer available for subsequent boards. Seems like the game maybe advanced through time starting with cavemen and ending up with futuristic enemies? Maybe it even had the word 'time' in the title? I think you just had to get characters from the bottom to the top of the screen--I don't remember it scrolling. Anyway popped in my mind today and can't remember the finer details...thanks!
If it was for early Nintendo then it might have been Final Fantasy I. It didn't look anything like it's later games that were released in the U.S.Dimitur Gospodinov said:Hey guys looking for an old RPG i played 7-8years ago... good graphics it was some fantazy rpg u had 3 characterss that can be switched in game a warrior a mage and a female elfish assassin ... i also remember the final boss was a kickass dragon ... pls help
Hey I played a game on pc around 2005 and can?t remember the name of it. The game was sort of a bird?s eye view strategy where you would start off with a castle and from there you could build different structures that could recruit particular units. Some of these units were wizard, rogues, worriers and you could build temples that gave you units as well. It was set in a fictional land with like dragons and giant wolves and stuff. From memory what made this game stand out from others was the fact that once you recruited a unit you no longer had control of them like a wizard for example might spend his time at a library researching new spells and you?d have to wait for him to go out and fight something. Also as an incentive for your units to go out and kill something or explore somewhere you could place bounty on enemy ai players or set a reward for exploring a certain area.
Like I said before I can?t remember the name of this game and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi. Please help me find name of the game.
1) I play it in 1993 on 8bit NES.
2) You can play alone or with friend (game for 1/2 players);
3) Title screen: red car and 2 people with racing helmets and with machine guns;
4) It is side-scroller, but not like "contra/mario", where are floors, but like in "double dragon", where you move up/down and right;
5) Players walk and shoot;
6) Sometimes during mission players sit in car and one of players can drive it until hit wall or land mine, after car is crashed, you continue on foot.
7) maybe some levels are look like "contra 2 level", but instead on walking up, you stay in cover (behind brick wall) and shoot up. [not sure, if it is the same game)

I am looking for a game that I used to play A LONG time ago, and I will try to explain it as well as I can:
Firstly, it's a 2D shooter game, you could play vs. computers or multiplayer (or both). When creating the maps or choosing from already existing maps, one could choose what kind of weapons should be in the game, and there were TONS and TONS of weapons, ranging from little guns to nuclear explosives. One could also alter the amount of blood. The environment could be blown away, as well. You could choose from a lot of different characters like worms, master chief (look-alike) and a lot of other stuff, as well as changing the colour of the character. I remember it being very hard to aim, and everyone also had a grapple hook.
Thanks in advance!

That sounds a lot like Gain Ground to me, except I don't believe there was a NES version.Jeffmal said:
