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

[Jae Sern]

Hi thanks but it is not Rampage.

It is a vertical scrolling game where you control the dinosaur/Godzilla-like character.
This is a coin op game if I'm not mistaken is from the mid to late 80s.

The first button is to shoot laser beams and the second button makes the dinosaur blow fire (which can repel certain enemy fire).

Help anybody?

So nobody can help me get my game huh.... I know it is a hard game to know the name of :c

 

[arnalover23]

Can someone literally help me with the game I am trying to find?!

 

[Aetherion]

Anyone knows the title of this game? I played it on NES before, but I think it's maybe ported from some other system.

In the game, we're controlling like a command tank with a spinning radar. We can summon our troops such as tanks, infantries, and choppers to attack enemies. The command tank that we controlled can absorb enemy troops and add it to the stocks of troops that we can summon.

Thanks in advance.

Hi, I really hope someone can help me with this game. I remember one of my parent's friend's daughter coming over and playing this game with me when I was around 5/6 so I don't remember all that much since it was her's.

It could have been on the N64 but I do remember it having a 3d kind of effect, much like ocarina of time for example but it was definitely not from the zelda series (I couldn't tell you how many times I've played OoT over the years so I know it couldn't have been that). I also remember there being some fighting sequence, like a tutorial for button combinations and there was a part when the character was surrounded by white lines, like he did magic or something. The best way I can describe the white lines is basically like a transmutation circle but surrounding the character. It was probably a strategy type game but I honestly have no idea.

I hope that makes sense to anyone, I wish I could explain more but my family moved and lost contact with the other girls family.

Thanks to anyone that knows!

Hi guys! I know it's a long shot to find game but I thought to ask here in the hope that maybe someone will know it.. I'm looking for a game I played on the internet a few years ago. It's a platform game in which you are a cube and I think you use your shadow. In the end you realize that it was just a made up realllity or a way to deal with your lost.. ( during the game you meet another cube and you loss her). Anyway it was very emotional ending! Hope to hear someone know the name or at least played this awsome game. Thanks in advance!

Hi all.

I'm looking for a Commadore 64 games that I don't remember much of. The game is like:

1) A platform game. You would view it from the side.
2) Takes place in a forest. I think it had a dark/black background, and brown terrain.
3) I remember bats that you had to avoid. I don't think you could kill the monsters, but just avoid them.
4) I also remember something about starting in the forrest, maybe a house? and then continuing into the forest which would present the levels.
5) I also think there were spiders, but I am not sure.
6) The game was played with a joystick.

Sorry, it is not much, but I hope that someone could provide some hints . I have been looking for the game for like 10 years.

Best regards
Morten Gryning

It's definitely a Dig Dug / Digger / Boulder Dash game or clone.

Original Boulder Dash looks sort of like a brown "Zoombini" ( http://www.c64x.se/games/gfx/boulderdash_cover.jpg )
Gameplay ( http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7hvRQBlNq5E/UIZ7WdJ37cI/AAAAAAAAASQ/CBygWfTB04Q/s640/boulder-dash-20090621014028597-2900991.jpg )

But there are countless clones and versions out there.

Platform / Year / 2D/3D / Gameplay?

Random guess: Commander Keen? ( http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/2009/7/1/1246454949648/Keen-4-005.jpg )

Hey, guys! I have two games that I'm wondering about.

This first game is a bit easy to guess since I'm sure it's very known but I just don't know what it is. I remember playing this when arcadepod had a gameboy color emulator straight from the website. I know I had to tame monsters and carry them on my team. I face other monsters and then some of them I think asks to join me. I can either say yes or no. I remember that I can fuse two monsters together as well. I remember this part from the story as well. My Uncle or Grandfather was sick and I had to go find a antidote for his sickness. That's about all I remember.

Now this game is a bit hard. I don't remember much, and I REALLY want to play this one again. Hopefully you guys have any insight. This was a PC game and I bought it at one of the local 99 cent stores in New York. It was 3Dish. The object of the game is that you had a group of people with powers (hopefully) and equipment on this planet in space (I think.) Had a really futuristic theme to it. I think I remember it was an overhead game. I also remember some of the boses being really bigger than my characters. It had some terrian and some objectives. I remember the music being really futuristic. I remember the group I controlled had I guess the same suit on but different colors. Hopefully you guys can give me some insight on this game.

1#: Dragon Warrior Monsters? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragon_Warrior_Monsters )


2#: what year did you play it?

 

[HappyFaceSmiles]

Hey I'm new to these forums so I'm not sure If I'm posting this correctly and am sorry if I'm not. If I am posting this incorrectly could you guys please show me the correct place where I should post? Anyways, I'm trying to remember the name of the old videogame that I use to play. It was an old 3D adventure castle game. I'm not exactly sure when this game came out but I use to play it around 1997-2001 (to give an idea of when it came out). I can basically remember the beginning of the game. When you started the game it gave you an option of choosing through a variety of items (You could only choose a limited amount (I think because of a money system)). So when you began it started inside a castle like place where you had 3 or 4 paths. Only one of the paths took you somewhere. The path lead to a door which had a guard dressed in armor that was patrolling the area whom you had to get passed using the weapons you picked. Once you got passed him it lead you into this main area type place where there was a tower you could enter to the right. In this tower there was three floors and and elevator that took you up them. The thing that I remember the most is on the third floor there was a book (of inventions I) that if you read and closed a monster would pop out from behind you. The monster looked somewhat like a redead(from Oot)/mummy type corpse that would attack you until you died. Here's a diagram I drew of how that place looked http://imgur.com/J1TWOXY (might not be exact its been a while) and the tower where the monster came out of. Also, I played this game back when I used to live in Turkey, not sure if that will make a difference. If you have any idea please post it I've been trying to remember the name of this game for literally two years!

Again sorry If I posted this incorrectly!

 

[SnowmanGameNo1Knows]

K so I've been trying to find this for years and I found this thread and I doubt it'll help but here goes.

It's an old game for windows 95 or 98 or something. It worked without a disk and it came on a used computer so it might have been downloaded from the internet, but we didn't have internet. It was a Christmas themed platformer and you played as a snowman and shot snowballs at enemies. The first level was random snowiness with snowman bad guys. Another level was inside a pyramid or something and there was a yellow snowman I don't think you could kill. Another level was in a city at night and you'd ride elevators to the tops of buildings. Another level was on a jungle island. halp

[SnowmanGameNo1Knows]

I don't know if I responded to this post correctly but this is in response to Gablum on page 82 about a super old snomwman game for pc from the early 90s.

I know exactly what game you are talking about. The only additional thing that I can remember is that the last level has a beach or island background and when you beat the game the snowman starts moving diagonally around the screen bouncing off the walls and changing color.

If anyone knows the name of this game or has any other info please help!!!
