I'm not expecting anyone to know what I'm talking about let alone the name of the game but here it goes. This was a PC demo game(not sure it even became a real game). It was on a disk of a 1000 or so shareware games with blitz(not the football game the risk sort of game) back in the 90's. Basically you were like a mid evil soldier or something and you walk around throwing axes or something at opponents. Some times those opponents were these big gobs of green goo, so weird bbut so fun! I played this game on a flopy disk that's right a floppy! It got thrown out at some point years ago and I've been wanting to play the game ever since. Please help if you can!
That sound kinda like Ghost 'n Goblins. (Be aware, there were versions of this on many systems, including PC)
sorta close by my description that could have been the right game but it wasn't. The game I played you controlled a red soldier I think with a sword and I believe there were archers in the game too. I believe you worked with a team sometimes and tried to take over castles. You did not fight zombies and what not though. It was kind of like warcraft(before world of warcraft) without the ability to create anything I guess, without the orcs and goo instead, humans fight humans too.

I wish I could offer a better description but I was young when I played it so It's hard to remember. It was also more of a mid 90's game I believe not an 80's game but I could be wrong. I don't know how old the game was when I started playing it although I assumed in was new

Alright, I really need some help with this one. This was a kids game back in late 90's and or early 2000's. This game, you would adopt 1 or 2 cats and play with them, you could grab them by the scruffs of their necks and toss them around or pet them, comb them. And If you had 2 cats, one day, they would go in there little house and have sex (you don't see anything, nothing) but you get a message on the screen that says your female cat is prego. After a couple days you have a brand new kitten that have features of both parents. you could adopt from a few different types of cats like a calico, some orange cat, siamese cats, a couple others i do believe.

but the graphics of this game was really well done for the time. was very cartoony, you could buy toys for your cats and stuff too.

Please, i can't find this anywhere, I would love to get this for my daughter.


Oh yes, this is a pc game.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to remember the name of this computer game I used to play when I was a kid. It was out probably in the mid to late 90s but I can't be sure. You were this little wizard guy with a wand that looked like a lollipop and you had to kill giant spiders. There was one level I remember that had a really giant spider and when you killed it, it turned into lots of little spiders. Also, if you wanted to give up on a level at any point the little wizard said "run awaaay!" in a squeaky high pitched voice.

Thanks

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a PC game that had 3 factions based on a tiled map. You battled to take control of control points with a group of units you commanded with other people who had their own units and the units were very starcraft-esque. For example, on faction had tanks, artillery etc and another faction MAY have been zerg-like but I'm not entirely sure...

It was quite futuristic and sci-fi but had poor graphics but great gameplay.

If anyone could help, that would be great THANK YOU!

EDIT: The game was early 2000s I think and there was a system where you could vote for a leader (real player) for your faction regularly. I'm not sure about this but you could also pay to upgrade your units/having to replace or repair them? You could definitely level them up with the fighting I think. It was in third person, angled-down view, similar to Starcarft. Graphics actually quite similar to Starcraft.
Could it be a WH40k game?

Not really sure if i get how it's played, but here's a random suggestion Nexagon ( http://www.giantbomb.com/nexagon-deathmatch/3030-32319/images/ )

Hey there :), no sorry, it's not that game. The game has a much more space feel to it, the terrain battles are fought on is Earthly too. It wasn't turn based I don't think.

Thanks for trying though! (100% sure it wasn't any WH40K game either :()

Hey guys, I'm looking for this one game I played on a website. You were able to build 3d realistic looking robots made out of like random stuff and they would be put up against other robots players built. They basically just fight each other and you didn't really have to do anything. It was on this website. Thats all I really recall.

Hey. I search old arcade racing pc game which I played on 2000-2002. I dont remember name of that game. But I rememeber that there was highway driving with variuos cars which you choose from shop, all opened up cars was in front of shop. You start with one and then you get others by wining cash or something like that. I'm pretty sure that there was time or gas that you need to collect and it help you to go further. And one more thing that game was 3d.If you could remember similar game I would happy.

Okay - arcade game - played it in a ski lodge at mount lofty.
Around 1990, possibly earlier.
you were a space suited guy who could double / triple jump.
you got to choose between 4 or 5 planets at the start.
One was jungle themed with bees and a long necked dinosaur for a boss.
Another was egyption themed.
When you beat a world there was a spaceship level between words.
Side scrolling shooter with massive powerups - real hard.
Any ideas? I thought it was Xenon or similar but no joy, help me out

I remember it was a gameplay trailer, or more it felt like a technological demo, showing off an engine without any HUD (ammo, health etc). I think I saw it between years 2006-2007. It was a First Person Shooter set in some sandy town which felt like Egypt, Turkey or Iraq, the place where it was happening looked like this - http://bit.ly/1btublC ... you know this kind of a building structure, I also remember that there was a little sandstorm going through that place, enemies were all over the place - on roofs, on balconies, in alleys, enemies were also wearing this on head - http://bit.ly/1d1D1xO ... person which you controlled could lean over objects, was holding and shooting from a weapon which looked like FN-FAL - http://bit.ly/1cvMngh or HK21 - http://bit.ly/1hL3YaZ ... at least I think, and in a background was playing some kind of an orchestral Arabian/Turkish felt-like music. I don't even know if that game was released or cancelled, or if it was just some kind of a technological demo, and I also don't know for what platforms it was made for. Can't remember more.


I won't give up posting 'til someone knows a name of this game.

I remember this one game that I use to play on the Playstation One as a child. It was a 3rd person shooter/infiltration style of game (nothing to do with Metal Gear Solid) that occasionally involved picking up differently colored cards to open locked blast doors and such. It had a sort of..futuristic feel to it. I vaguely remember the first level. It started you off with your character flying in a helicopter,or rather,standing on the side of the helicopter while above a moving train. The cinematic involved the character jumping onto the train,and then ending with him in kind of a cool pose. The level would then start next to,I would guess,the railway tracks that the train was passing by. You then would have to go and beat up your first enemy in the game,beating the shit out of him and taking a..like..sort of blue+green-ish card off of him to open a blast door to continue the level. At the end of the level was a boss fight with some big guy that was hammering away at an anvil,he says something to your character and then runs at you with it. I actually remember my strategy involving racking up a huge amount of sub-machine gun ammo to finish him off quicker. I can barely remember anything in between the end and the beginning and the end of the first stage..
And that's about all I can offer. Any ideas on what it might be called?
I've remembered a bit of the starting screen,and I wanted to elaborate on it a bit and maybe that will help me find it.
It was a 180 degree view over some kind of futuristic city,and the large object in it was a blue dome-like structure that,I think,had square outline-ings throughout it. The options were also a shade of blue and were on the right hand side of the screen...
That's about all I managed to remember.

Edit 2: Some more information is that it was FREE TO PLAY and you didn't have to build building for units, the units entered strait into battle with you (and units came in groups of like 8 or 10, not individually. There were also no heroes.

Wow, that's getting closer! But still not it :( Thank you so much for trying though!

I'm trying to remember a game. It was a turn based strategy with a blue team, red team, yellow team and green team. It has graphics like Castle Crashers and played like Fat Princess. I think it was on the PSP, but I remember getting it for free, so it may have been free to play. It was online and you could play against 4 players. I think it had "Clan" or "Castle" in the name, but it might not have. Any help?
