I had a CD with about 250 demoversions. It said the games were from 1994, but they were just from the general time era. I think the game I am looking for was called something like "the island" or "the isle". YOu would buy your stuff, and then sail to an island. There you had to gather ressources and prepare to defeat a certain number of armies. You could buy soldiers and the soldiers would fight each other in a set of rows. At the beginning of each row you could place cannons. I really only remember it barely, does anybody of you know which game it is?

I used to play a game that I think was on either the Sega Dreamcast or the Playstation 1. It was a multiplayer game where you could go against your friends and I think NPCs. I'm not entirely sure if it was in 3rd person or 1st person, but you could run around as some army guy and while at your base, you could spawn teammates and control them with the different buttons on the controller. Also you could spam the square button to make your guy keep saying "Defend here! Stand your ground! Defend this area!". I think Triangle was used to make your soldiers attack whatever you're pointing at. Anyways, every base was a big green cube-looking thing with a bunch of weapons, ammo, and health packs. You would have to go around the map taking down the enemy flag and raising yours. The two maps that I remember were one in the middle of a city at sunset in a big square area that had a bunch of containers and a big flagpole in the middle, and the four bases were put on all four sides of the square in the middle, also there were subways that wrapped around underground. The other was during night on a street in a destroyed city with big walls separating the bases, with the buildings and alleyways as the only way to get around them, and the flag was on top of a building in the middle.

I used to play a game on PC. It was kind of a shooting style with cartoon graphics. It was very cool, you could play singleplayer too. There was some characters that i remember: a witch that uses a broom and shoot some balls, and a barbarian that used an axe. There were different kinds of stages, including pvp, pve. I cant remember the name, think it doesnt exist anymore.

I've read a few and got nothing.

Got a new one though. It's a psone game where you choose the class you want to play then battle on a warzone. The thing I remember best is that the motorcycle had no health but was fast and laid mines or something. That's about all I can remember.

I'm trying to find a game that was a platforming shooter kind of thing. It was on the PS1 in the early 2000s. It had 2 characters, a blue and a green guy. They had popper type things that were their weapons and from what I can remember in the opening cut scene a lot of posters fell out of the sky. This isn't much to work on but hopefully someone knows what it is.
I think it might be brave fencer musashi. Maybe not.

Ok, I've stumped myself trying to remember this game:

It was a Playsatation one fighting game. With 3D Character graphics but a 2D play field. I recall there being a story mode and of course a two player fighting mode. The key aspects of game play were the characters would float around the level and only be restricted by the height of the selected map. The game had a very japanese-anime look, the only two or three selectable characters I can remember are:

A cyborg like machine/man with cannons for arms, his attacks involved shooting missiles ect from them.

A young women that would use cards as a form of attack and explain: "Did I really win" after winning a fight.

Sorry for the vagueness, this is all i can recall.

Nothing rings a bell, but look at images or videos of maybe Destrega or Ergheiz or Dragonball GT. Or google a list of PS1 fighting games...
Thanks for the reply, unfortunately neither of those are the game, but it does play like Dragonball. Thanks for the response.

I remember a game, well, a demo, that I had on my old computer, where you were a woman space marine who killed aliens. But the coolest thing about that game, was the fact that you were running down a tube, and if you pressed A or D, then you would go around the pipe, so you could be upside down. It was something Betty.

Another game I can think of, which is another demo, was like a space battle simulator...thing, where there was a space station that you and a few others had to defend. The thing that was cool about this particular game, was that it was the first one I played that actually used the third dimension. None of this "Up is up, down is down, suck it" kind of Hollywood thinking.

I remember a top-down view game. It was kind of a gory game, where you had to go trough levels killing monsters and at the end of the level, defeating bosses. As i mentioned it was a top-down game. It had i believe 4 characters: a guy with a hammer, a knight, a mage and some kind of dragonish lizard in armor (i'm not sure about the last one). They all could fire a missle projectiles for the cost of mana or something, and had a melee attack. They could also jump. The controls were CTRL for missle projectile, ALT for melee attack, and X i believe for jump. I also can remember a ready room or something, where you could select the stage. At the middle of the room there was a pentagram symbol, and there were teleport entrances at stages in south-west, south-east, north-west and north-east of the room. At the north, there were stairs and where a skull popped up and told you something if you wanted to go near those stairs. You could also collect usable one-time items in the game like dynamyte, shields and etc. I can also remember collecting grey and yellowish crosses which gave you mana and health.I also can remember the first stage's boss: a giant rat or something (lol). But really, I would wish to play this game again if someone knows how it's called.

I have one game that i can not find title for a few years. It was one of the best arcade games that i ever played in my life.

You play as a bald guy with red pants in a Turkish style. you at first fire one little ball at your enemies and later you upgrade your weapon to two balls and than three. The last upgrade is a homming three balls. It is adventure game and in one level you fught with medusa in some mine and you drive a mine vagon. The last level is a fight with a wizzard that shoots something like stars. The first wizzard shoots only once and than you come to real one that shoots many times. After every level you see yourself laying on the tons of gold and treasures. The main item you use in the game are ladders that you can put anywhere and you can climb to see what is up and there are many things if you know where to look. One of the best games ever. Solving this would bring joy to everyone on this forum i believe.

iT IS ARCADE GAME I PLAYED IN `90S

I've been trying to find these two games for the last several hours. First one is a 2d top down pc game I believe wins 98. Where your character collects materials to "craft" them into weapons like leather strap plus rock equals dagger and you can change out the materials to make better weapons. You could also been in walk, crouch or laying down mode as you explored. You could also tell your guy to attack the arms legs body or head. - Evil Islands: Curse of the Lost Soul - z3tzilla answered this one.

The second game we had to access through dos and you had your main character which we didnt use but he gained allies in a mythical land and I remember having a pegasus and a fairy and a couple other creatures. Each board was kinda like a maze that there was not a lot of space to move and pretty much a linear path for your creatures to go along and fight other monsters. But your creatures gained experience and leveled. I believe you were a demi god or a prince and you were fighting against other gods minions like greek mythology type gods and creatures.

Okay, just saying, best thread on the internet.
So, back probably around ten or so years ago I'd go to my cousin's house to play his N64 goddamn near every day because he had so many more games and wouldn't let me borrow them. There is one that sticks out in my mind a lot. I remember you usually play as some sort of vehicle, which is also and animal or something. Each animal, vehicle, thingy could do different things, like I think I remember there was like a turtle tank, a hippo that did something, some animal was a dragster, and probably an metric asston more. I don't remember much more about the game other than in one level you have to use the turtle tank to shoot invisible tiles to see where a path is to get across a chasm. Also there was a level with penguins I think..
Help?

EDIT: I just found it! It was Space Station Silicon Valley

Hello fellas,

I've got one that's nagging at me whenever I think about it.

The game I played is described as follows:
- Played it in 2002 - PC
- Sci-fi/futuristic genre
- First-person perspective, shooter/war
- You play as a pilot of a hovering craft (notice I wrote hovering, this isn't a space-flight simulator - it was on the ground, on earth I don't know) with two other wingmen (AI). In the first mission, you get deployed to some sort of mining facility, that is under attack.
- in this game, you have the ability to get out/in of your hovercraft.


That's about all I remember. It would be great if anyone recognizes what I described.

- Px
Sounds very much like Battlezone (the 1998 version) or its sequel. Great games by the way!

heya :D

Can't bloody remember this to save my life and have been searching for hours online with no luck. I could have _swore_ it was a sequel to pool of radiance, but after seeing the pool of radiance 2, that definitely isn't it. It was a first person RPG-ish game, kinda like the elder scrolls series.

Only thing I really remember well is the intro screen looks a lot like pool of radiance 2, it had a skeleton enemy, and the room I remember had a phosphorescent glow to it.

Anyhow, I really thought it was a remake from the gold-box era of SSI games / sequel.

Any ideas? This is driving me nuts!

I loved this game but I can't remember the name of it...

Was a flash game that featured a handful of cars, including a buggy, a Mini Cooper and a monster car. The point of the game was to survive and destroy your opponents by knocking them off the map or by destroying their vehicles. It also had a lot of maps including San Andreas Fault, some sort of Minefield, an ice flow map, a map called Hamburger, a map with pyramids on it and a map called Halloween. There were three versions, the demo like one, one a full version you paid for, and an online full version that always stopped working at the Halloween map.
