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

[Batou667]

This one is going to be really vague but we'll see..

Only thing I really remember is that it's a 2d Top down game and that you're playing a caveman. And for the exact console I can't really say but I'm pretty sure it's either the Snes or the genesis but I could be wrong.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Chuck Rock was a caveman game, but that was side-on...

I'm reposting this in case anyone can please help me?

I have no idea what year it was but most likely early 2000s. It was a PC game that had robots/machines and you started out with a base. I think you had to mine metal but I can't remember. You could upgrade your robot machines to make them more powerful and go off to fight your enemies. If I remember correctly the enemies showed up as red dots and they had different types of machines including aircraft and boats for the water levels. Each building created a different machine/robot and each machine/robot took a different amount of time to be built. If anyone ever played the game Age of Empires it was similar to that except with robots/machines. I'm trying to give as many details as I can remember because this is really bugging me

Total Annihilation?

Ok guys I need help drastically, I have been killing myself of this for about 4 years. I have been searching for a game I used to love and play all the time roughly 10-12 years ago. I don't have much to go on. If my memories sever right the main character is a girl with brown hair and I believe her weapon was a boomerang, your party does grow as the game goes on. I do remember one section of the plot, you go to a village at some point and all the villagers are turned to stone, also I believe the last boss is some sort of big master computer or something along those lines. It has a Zelda RPG sorta feel with something like a Final Fantasy fighting style. I played this game on the PC but it may have been emulated so I don't know if it is for sure a PC game. I think the name may have ended in saga but I'm not sure on that. Any help you can give me on this would help me greatly. Thanks!

This is a long shot, but could it have been an emulated version of Shining Force 2? The party leader in that is a female with a boomerang weapon.

Or maybe Skies of Arcadia?

The petrified village bit doesn't ring a bell, but then again I never played wither of those two games to completion...

Ok I have two games that I just can't remember because I was a little young and them images are burned in my mind and are haunting me to know. They are both on the playstation 1 console

1. The first one was a Japanese art style kart racer with anime looking characters. I remember that there was an old man racer that if he built up enough speed his kart would turn into a plane for a short period of time and then crash.

2. The other game was a strange 3rd person platformer. It's walls and floors were multicolored patterns. The character memory is kinda blurry and I remember a short alien like creature with no hands(I think)a teardrop shaped body, and 2 big feet. He got flung to different parts of the map with mounted slingshots. I do not know the goal of the game I was young and did not understand it. I remember I died by a creature with propellers kinda like a helicopter that threw projectiles at me.

Any help finding these games would be greatly appreciated especially the second game, I want to know that one the most

The first one sounds like Street Racer.

The game I am trying to remember, is a believe an either 90 or early 2000 computer game. It was a little kid game. I was an adventure/ problem solving game. I remember you are walking through woods around night time and I believe there is an evil witch or something? But you are walking through the woods and you have a white gloved hand pointer finger, and you can do things like solve math problems or if you get to the swamp are you can grow plants. I remember you could see a tower in the background that looked like a witches hate. I know its not much to go on but I would really appreciate any help. So does any one possibly know the name of the computer game?

Jump Start 4th Grade: Haunted Island

I watched some videos on youtube just to make sure, but I was looking for the same game. She turns all the kids into monsters and you have to free them.

Sounds like you're looking for either Heretic or Hexen.

Spoiler: Heretic, click to view

Spoiler: Hexen, click to view

also there was a game I think that you were like a punk and you kill the police there was a subway station and you collect cash.

As far as your game is concerned, I think you're talking about NARC, but you don't shoot cops, you ARE a cop who can shoot drug dealers. I seriously doubt they would ever release a mainstream game where you kill cops

Oh wait, what am I thinking? You've got every Grand Theft Auto game that allows you to kill cops. And both San Andreas and GTAIV have subways.

Spoiler: NARC: click to view

 

[escapist3991]

Hey does anyone remember any of these pc games?they are from anywhere between 1993ish until 2002.Sorry they are so vague!

1. Black dark arena looking place where these dark like monster/alien looking guys fight each other vs. style like mortal combat etc. not the best graphics

2.Another vs. style game where every arena looks like a planet and everything has like a colour theme like the alien/person thing you fight is purple and so is the place you are fighting them at.

3.Weirdest game that I could never get to work!It was like a first person looking view where you are hovering around all over the place and landing atop hills or just flying over them and you were a fly?or looked like one?not really too sure.

4.A game where you click on something in main menu and it takes you whereyou make your own colony or land or something? looked really fancy and better graphics like you could go back to the main menu and it looked all regal and kind of like brown colours and chesspiece looking..super hard to remember exactly.


So vague but maybe someone will know what I mean?Thanks!

This is a terribly long shot; I feel like I'm the only one to have ever played this game..

It's set inside a computer, you play a little blue (?) guy who is the computers sort of antivirus software. You start on this grid of computer chips, with a virus starting to eat its way to the edge. If it makes it to the edge, you lose (obviously). And the only way to stop it was to pick the uneaten chips and solve a puzzle related to them, when you got the puzzle right, the chip became inedible to the virus. Once you'd surrounded the virus in solved chips, he'd die. There were multiple difficulties, and I think the hardest had several viruses all at once. I played this when I was about 8, so back in about 1997.
I've been wracking my brain (and Google) to find out what game this was, so any help would be appreciated.

Possibly Chip's Challenge?

Unfortunately not. I have Chip's Challenge. I vaguely remember when you did the puzzles, it took you to another screen, and when you passed or failed, it took you back to the virus infected area. I guess it was a motherboard kind of thing.

ITS CALLED MATH ACE! I finallyyyy found it

Hi! I'm looking for a mid 90s to early 2000s PC game. It was 2D, and I think it was in space, and you had to go around and catch the little white chickens on each level.
I'd appreciate any help!

--Found it! The chickens were purple and it was called Adventures with Chickens. I have tried to download a shareware version with no success and apparently the original CDs are full of Trojan horses and crap. Boo.

No, that one isn't it. The object of the game was catching the chickens I believe.

Hi i need help remembering a game i played on windows95, i got the game on a demo disc so could be difficult for anyone to remember.
Basically the object of the game was to send your army into neighbouring countries until you conquer every country.
Very vague description i know but as it was a long time ago im really having trouble remembering much about it (i was about 9 years old when i played it)

Thanks for taking the time to read my post.

Was it in the Civilization series?

 

[Wargus]

Hey, I'd really like to find this game:
I think it was very old, took place underwater. Yes, I recall precisely you were driving some underwater sub or something in first person, and you had to harvest some orange-red mineral things.. then you returned to the base and you dumped what you collected in some container which made a screeching sound I can remember to this day. And you had the ability to shoot missiles or stuff.. and if you shot the other collector subs you were arrested by two police submarines. Pretty original having police submarines.. I also recall some figure in the bottom right with a blury face giving me instructions, I think he always said "harvest forium" or something resembling the term. Also I remember if I went too deep the pressure would roflpwn me, and I had no clue what to do, since everywhere I went, nothing happened.
Also you could enter the base and.. well pretty much it, watch your sub.
And you could surface and see a nice island .
That's all I remember.

I just discovered that a game that I admire for being strange and interesting from when I was 4, playing on the playstation 1, was Bubsy 3D a game considered to be one of the worst games in history. Just shows that some games don't have to be perfect to leave a lasting impression.

 

[auron2112]

A game I probably played in the early 2000s, but it I think it was from the mid/late nineties. I think it was bundled as a demo with some kind of robocop game and a demo of Total Annihilation, but don't quote me on that. You were in something like a spaceship, it flew, and it was black I think, and angular, but it was first person. but you were underground I think. There was a bit you went through that said "no humans beyond this point" or something similar. You could collect powerups and stuff and when you died, you could respawn and find where you died before and pick up your powerups from the last time (which I thought was genius at the time). I also seem to recall everything being very brightly coloured, but again, don't quote me on that.
