Not Bad Dudes Vs. Dragon Ninja, as it was the fifth level that was on the train.


Many games have moving-platform levels. I think Double Dragon had a level on top of a train?

Perhaps Mega Man 5? Charge Man's level was on top of a train, but I can't remember it moving.



Skip to about 3:10 for the moving train part.
Thanks, but it wasn't Mega Man. I didn't play Bad Dudes.
It had a well known protagonist, such as Bruce Lee ( or so I thought as a kid :d). It might have been a hack.
I have been searching for a picture/video to refresh my memory..but no such luck.

Hey guys! I've been looking for a game I vaguely remember playing many years ago. It was a 2D, turn-based game in which - if I remember correctly - both you and the (AI) opponent had a spaceship somewhere in field of asteroids/planetoids, and took shots at each other with different weapons, that had to curve around the asteroids/planetoids to reach their targets. I'm pretty sure the asteroids/planetoids were destructible, and each of the ships was stationed on one. I think you could determine the angle and power of your shots. I played it on the pc, but I don't remember where I found it in the first place. Hope you guys have any ideas! :) Cheers.

In 2005 I played a shooter pc game. It could be from 2005, 2004, 2003. I don't know.
You enter in a cemetery and after you is a cameraman. You have to kill zombies and when you do this, the TV audience is growing.
In the right bottom, is the reaction of the public who watch the show.
If anyone knows the name, please tell me.
I can't find it.
Thank you!
There was a PC game called The Devil Inside. It was about an ex-cop starring in a reality TV show as a demon hunter, killing zombies and demons. However, it wasn't a shooter, more like an adventure game, but, who knows, maybe that's the one...
Thank you very much!!!

Hello, I hope this thread is still going because I have a game which has bothered me for quite a while now.
It's a PC demo game where I think it comes with either windows 98 or 95 and I've played it in 1999. You play as a flying neon green dog with long red ears and a small horn on it's head from where it shoots down like wasps and insects, there's like a landscape background and it's sorta like a Space Invaders type of game where you use the mouse to move the dog left and right and click it to shoot insect and also there is a queen bee boss. Please and thanks.
Hopefully your skills are awesome as I know! :)

I realy want to know the name of this PC game. It was about a small boy with green hair (I thought named Co) and he started on the pirate ship of Peter Pan, passing this level you went up the beanstalk and so on. (also a level about the mermaid where he had to hold his breath underwater, snowwhite etc.) you had to collect some stuff on the road and fight wolfs and stuff. The graphics were realy low. He was wearing a purple shirt and white pants in my memories)

Hopefully someone can help me :)

Hey guys, i've got this game in my head from childhood and i'm hoping you can help me remember it.

All i know is that you play on an alien world... it's 3rd person view but i think you can choose 1st person as well. You're a race of aliens i believe and the planet is attacked by someone. You can either control a tank (or something resembling one) and drive around defending your base or attacking one.. waves of enemies appear and you can see them on your radar on a corner somewhere. You can also fly a ship where you also defend your base..you can also protect a convoy if i remember correctly.

I think the AI or the one that gives you your objective speaks in an alien language..but you can read the subtitle of course. It's a fairly open world... but of course you can't go really far away from your objectives and that's basically all i can remember..you can only control a tank or a ship and fly around shooting at enemies. It's a fairly old PC game from years ago.. no wonder i'm having trouble finding it..might not have been that popular at all. Any ideas?

This is a game ive been trying to find back for a while, i loved it as a kid and really want to play it again

think is i remember its name, or at least how i said it, not so sure it it was right: Tyrrearian or something along those lines

it was a top-down scrolling shoot em up akin to today's bullet hell shooters but it had a mechanics that i have never seen used in any other of the same genre, basically your ship had 3 stats while flying your mission: Energy, Shield and armor. Shield regenerates but armor doesn't but the shield would only regenerate when your energy bar was full, firing your guns would deplete the bar but it would recharge

Before you start the mission you can buy different ships, weapons or improvements from cash that you get from killing enemies and beating levels, you have a primary and a secondary weapon system, shields, generator (this was used to improve your energy recharge rate) and some other that i forgot

I had this games Demo version which came on a disk containing other demos including one called seek and destroy which was a top down helicopter shooter but it wasn't linear

also when you beat all the levels you get a carrot ship which can fire bananas

alright i need help trying to figure a game out me and my brother have been stumped forever because when we played the game we were 9 it's a game that is like a board game and you have monsters to battle with and first to take out the general or main boss wins u start out with basic monsters however u can combine them to get dragons and unicorns which can fly over mountains or u get the shitty blob which can't kill anything it was on the playstation and if anyone can help that would be awesome because its been bugging me for a while. and if you need to compare it to a game it's like fire emblem on the gameboy advance.

Hi, I'm trying to find the name of this old game.

It is similar to Zelda I think in terms of game style. This is what I remember from the game:

You start in a small cave next to a town by coming out of some chamber or time travel device thing. You fight with a single hero that uses a sword. The sword can be upgraded into a wind, fire, ice, lightning sword. Each type can be upgraded 3x I think so you can charge and fire more powerful attacks. The first thing you do is leave north of town to fight gorilla and slime looking monsters. You have to find a sleeping man in a cave and get some potion to wake him up and power up the windmill to open up another cave. The first boss in that cave is a witch looking thing that teleports around and attacks you with bats.

Can anyone tell me what was the name of this game? It was 2D also.
Crystalis! I love that game! One of my favorite games of all time!
Yep that it Thanks Dude!

I remember going on lycos.com or netscape.com online and playing this single player game around the early 2000's, like 2001-2005 where there are little red people. The background i believe was black and i think there was a green flag somehow involved. I remember that you could destroy the red people maybe by clicking on them and could also dig into the ground ( i think it was brown) the same way. I think the goal was to get as many people as possible to the flag without destroying all the people but i can't remember. I think its some sort of outer space game. I've been looking for it for a couple of years but think they stopped making it or sponsoring it. Not knowing the name is killing me and I want to play because it can be addicting, so if anyone knows it, it would be very much appreciated. Thank you!
Some kind of online Lemmings?

Alright, so way back round 2000-2003, i think, there was a side scrolling platform game with two dwarfs or vikings or something. Pretty certain they were dwarfs though. But i cant for the life of me remember what it was called. I do however remember it came from a pc magazine as a free demo cant remember which one though.

So not terribly much to go on but if anybody can help it would be great.
Lost Vikings?

Anyone remember this game? It was a side scroller on the Super Nintendo. The only thing I remember about it is that there were crates with a picture of a blacksmithing anvil on them

Hi!
I played a game long ago with a purple-blue slime (or a drop) what started in a village (i think...) before it was going in a journey in forest, jungle, snowy terrain, there that slime was running in right side and were a lot of creatures (animals), it was fighting with some bosses and when he was going back in the village saw it was on fire (the village) and started to search some survivor (i think...) and when he knew, was going to search who did that.


That is what i remember.It was 2D and was not a big game with a lot of GB was a simple game like Terraria...


So if someone know the name of the game plz tell me. =/

Well, hello!
I used to play this one game in the kids zone in the library and as I was too young I never got the name but I think that not even escapistmagazine could ever help me with this one.
The game was like this: the whole screen was a big puzzle (I think the first one was an image of penguins in the snow fooling around) cut into many small shuffled squares and you had to reorganize it to go through each level, and to help you out you had these creatures (that had no legs, only arms and tails and would float around), each one of them with its own function, I remember there was this one called the finder, and you would give it one of the squares and it would be roaming around holding it untill it would find its right place. And you would have to feed them to keep them from getting tired, I think. And there were also "bad" creatures that would be trying to keep you from solving the puzzles, by hurting your "good" creatures, or, if I recall correctly, shuffling the puzzle even more, and damaging the pieces so that you couldn't move them temporarily.

Well, and that's about it...thanks for your help anyway :)
