Ive been scouring the internet using keywords i remember from the game but no dice, i remember drips and drabs ill list what i can, help would be extremely appreciated

Playstation 1

Futuristic, there was advanced technology, space travel and the like


Vehicle based game, you drove a tank/car that was a light vehicle to start with, though you unlocked two more and could transform at will - the heavy tank was given in mission 2 or 3 and it could drive through water safely

Third person, i can remember looking down on my buggy dying in afore mentioned water - but i cant remember how the gunnery worked for the life of me

Scientists were civilians with lightbulbs above their head and you could save them or get them from buildings at objectives, you then dropped the scientists at these repair/upgrade stations for stuff, it was how you unlocked the heavy tank

Stargates, each planet/area was linked to the next (or multiple) with a stargate, the first few were little and slightly larger than your tank, but there was a huge one later on that lead into enemy space

Aliens, i think - pretty sure the enemy was aliens and it was an invasion or something and you are trying to get back to earth to save it but ive searched with and without and still no dice

There are actually two PSX games I'm trying to remember names for:

The first game takes place solely on a train. At least I think so. The objective is to save the train and the hostages, and at one point you jump to ANOTHER train.

The second game is about human organs, and the high demand. Cops cannot use organ-harming weaponry, and the plot of the game comes from someone who actually harms a human organ.

The game I can't seem to remember involved....Chickens as the main enemies? It was on PS1. It wasn't chicken run. I barely remember it but it was really good from what i remember.

ALMOST FORGOTTEN PS1 GEMS BY ME:
Musashi
Intelligent Qube
The Bombing Islands
Legend of Dragoon
How about Turkeys? That would be South Park for PS1.
Nahhh, not south park I remember that one. I'm pretty sure it was really obscure.

don't even know if this forum is still active or if I'm posting in the correct place but I have been racking my mind for years about this game.I don't remember a whole lot but it was 1995 or 96.it was surely for PlayStation and it was all live action not cut scenes. If you hit the buttons at the correct time and correct order the game would progress. the whole game if played perfectly could be finished in about half an hour. What I barely remember was driving around on a motorcycle in a crazy suit that reminded me of a cricket. I don't remember the plot or much else but I hope someone might be able to help me out.

I have had this game on my mind that I can't remember the name for. It's an old PC game where you are a prince or something and you had to save the land from the dark forces. You would go to a level and had to build up your defenses and then destroy the dark forces and you would use your serfs to mine ores and cut trees down and such. I'm pretty certain it was from the 90's, but I just can't remember the name.. any ideas would be more than welcome!

Sorry for my english. I never found this game;

There were two wizard -one of them was in purple or blue costume- and we're trying to finish each level by getting keys on clouds or castles. It was platform view game and also I remember switches in the game whichs are moving up/down ladders or moving left/right clouds.

I asked on many forums but nobody knows it.

Hello! I wonder does someone know what game Im willing to know, I played it between 1998-2004 so yeah its a bit gap. The game was like: "I am a guy in a spaceship and I kill aliens or similar things and...." Only thing I remember is in the spaceship there was these like chambers or pods or whatever where were aliens "sleeping", you could see them trough the glass of them and there was all nice scifi "computers" etc everywhere and like buttons that had blue glow around them.
The game might be a demo.. I think it didn't have a long name and if I remember right in the main menu was a space and a ship were hovering there. AND i think it was from 3rd person view mode. I hope someone knows that game, thanks already! OH, and it's for PC

Hello! I am searching a game i played ages ago. Its a playstation1 game, got a yellow cover (at least in germany) and 2 discs and you start playing the game as a redheaded women (not thaaaat sure about the gender though). Your first major objectiv was slaying a dragon. After that you saw a few texts explaining what happend after that and you got to play the child/some ofter descendant (still redheaded). You had to obtain the sword which slayed the dragon and one of the bossfights was a pirat who was throwing bombs all the time. Everything was of course in third person. Thank you very very much.

Was it Dragon Valor by any chance?

First game sounds like Covert Ops: Nuclear Dawn

As for the second one, no bloody idea. Any more details that you can add? Did you play a cop on foot? Was it an FPS or a top down shooter or anything in between?

I'm looking for an old JRPG.
I played this game so long ago I only remember fragments but the atmosphere and style of the game has kept me thinking about it all these years. It might not actually be as great as I see it in my head right now but I'd love to play it again.

The graphics were around the same era as Final Fantasy 6. (Probably early-mid 90s).
It was an action rpg (kind of like Zelda) You had a morphing weapon; if you run attack turns into a spear and you stab. If you were standing still it was a sword.

The story starts with a cutscene where something dramatic happens in a dark castle corridor (don't remember exactly what it was) afterwards you find yourself waking up on a bed in a quaint town (here is where you choose your name and you were always a guy).

Then everyone turns into stone and you have to save them. (This is probably the most iconic memory I have of this game).

Inside dungeons/towns are very Zelda like (perspective, controls, fighting mechanics) but the way you travel is similar to Final Fantasy's where there's a pixelated map and your sprite is moving around different main locations I don't think there were any surprise encounters though.

I'd be REALLY REEALLLY surprised and happy if someone can get this!
sounds like Terranigma.

It's one of a three games in a loose trilogy, with Soul Blazer being the first and Illusion of Gaia being the second. I won't say details but yeah everyone but you gets turned to stone and it's up to you to set things right by ascending towers and conquering them, unlocking more dungeons as you go.

My forgotten game is an old ps2 game. It was a RPG turn based strategy game. What you did was ride on a horse fighting creatures and recruiting people for your squad like thing. When you were riding on your horse it wasn't 1st person it was super zoomed out and when you ran into an enemy it would zoom into a mini square-like battlefield. Then you would take turns moving your characters around and attacking. I think you made money by killing enemies and then spent it on buying new people for your squad. I remember you could buy archers and orcs. It was a medieval time game. That's pretty much all I remember.
Thanks for the help!
Also, you had a certain amount of time to find treasure. You could spend a few days to build siege weapons to take a castle, or even take a day or two to dig for treasure on the block that your main avatar was standing on.
sounds like Heroes of Might & Magic: Quest For The Dragonbone Staff

You rode around on a horse on the overworld map and combat took place on grid fields, akin to chess or checkers.
