I have a game I can't remember the name. It was a 2d side scroller shooter. It had a guy in a green shirt and I'm pretty sure you were killing aliens in it. The first level I think had a lot of cars right behind you crashed or left there. Im also pretty sure the main character was black with a mustache. Please help me.
Yes, I think this might be the game I was talking about. Anyone got a clue?

I need help with a pc game that i played around 2003-4 but the game might be a little older and it could have been made for consoles too.
It was a FPS an you had a jetpack but you were flying quite slowly. Maybe it only allowed you to rise up and then you would soar around.
You started in a village without this jet pack I believe. I think one had various futuristic weapons as far as I remember but you went through middle age villages as well.
I may be making this up but I think one of the weapons had a trumpet opening and was able to shoot multiple enemies simultaneously.
One level took place in a town in a mountain area. Later there was a level in an area where one was surrounded by a big wall and there were tall towers where one had to shoot monsters/enemies.
Quite a weird game :) but it made an impression on me.

Any ideas?

Ok, so there is another game that im also looking for.
Based on "mcopo" post on emforums which is on the same quest

New challenge for you guys! Much appreciated if someone helped me!
Okay, the game was simple:
- Windows 3.1/95 game;
- could be played either against the AI or against a human player;
- two characters - a dog and a postman. You could choose one of both;
- the scenario is some house front yard, divided in square spaces;
- postman must deliver the letter to the house (by reaching the frontdoor);
- dog must... well, bite the postman;
- players take turns rolling the dice to see how many spaces they will move. Kinda like a board. Yup, it's preety much a boardgame;
- player win 1 point after each victory. Getting 10 points rewards you with a character's (yours) showoff. But the game didn't end after this (it never ends!);
- the "board" had some holes on it, but I don't remember how they interfered in the game;
- the game had a 16 bit version and a 32 bit one. They were separated executables.

That's it! It was a preety simple game, but still fun! And the cheerful art style added up to that! I attached an image of it from a cd magazine (the cd is long gone - that's why i'm posting here). If you guys need a better quality image, please tell!
Oh, and by the way, the magazine states that the name of the game is simply "Postman", with the subtitle "cachorro x carteiro" (dog x postman). But I couldn't find ANYTHING on google, so it must be wrong.

Can anyone help? I remember a top-down racing game, I think on the PS1, which showed the whole track on-screen and you drove a small car/truck with maybe three others competing against you. All tracks were desert based from memory. Loved the game, just can't remember the name. Quite quick, there were crossovers etc and the detail was tiny - no close-ups! I think the music was country-style. Any ideas? Thanks!

It was more of an off-road game, the racing was similar on all tracks, think there were a few bumps and jumps, there were no weapons involved (certainly wasn't a mario kart type game) and probably never was one of the 'big' titles...

Can anybody help me find a mmorpg i played i think somewhere between 2010 -2013 where the graphics were high quality? I remember starting somewhere by a square leveled town and one of the starting quests was to bring a flower or plant like from a mountain somewhere by the town and to get there you needed to climb some branches or plant thing pressing e. Another thing i remember is that traveling was made from a travel master and a flying horse would do a tour of the city before leaving and then disappearing in a portal .

Hi, I might sound a little vague but, here I go.

This game was a NES game, not sure if a famycom hack or what. Known facts: this was a game completely in japanese. All kenjis all over the menus. The main character was a little dragon alike character (all white) and you should think in... Shy ghosts from super mario bros meets kirby. (But, it was white). The game mecanics was to defeat enemies, with a tail hit (similar to the one that the blue dragon in Islander games gave). The enemies dropped something (not sure if coins, white orbs or what). LAter on, with those orbs, the Character was able to BUY skills. One of the skills i'm positively sure it was the flying skill. While using this skill, the character simply moved its little tiny wings and moved in an horizontal straight line. Also, while doing this, he plucked its tiny tongue out of its mouth, as if it were a :p smiley.

There was food (japanese food) all over the screen, and i'm 100% sure, the game is not "Chery cherub".

The game was more like an rpg game, the difficulty was insane and this game is driving me nuts! please help!
Any help with this one? thanks! extra info, this game used password, yes, in japanese
bump
second bump

Hello guys! I found this forum when I was searching old games and I have a few I want you to help me ^.^ I played these games through 1995-2000 years

?1.-This one I remember it was like a red little elf and with a sleeping hat (?) That character needed to move things in different stages moving things like yellow circle things and everything to make your way to the end of it. It was like a puzzle game that, if you get stuck, you can start again until you finish. Another thing that I remember is that it must not eat venomous mushrooms because it turn like green or like sick and dies saying "oh oh!", haha. Very simple game and with white background.

?2.-This game was for learning english things and I remember it was like a cartoon with raccoons that always guide you. I had a demo version of a doctor at the start that shows rythms of some words, and then, it return you to the game searching things, making rythms and collecting gems in different places of the game. Itw as a clicking with mouse game and that's all I remember. Those raccoons appear in many educational games.

?3.- This other game was like a copy of pac-man, I remember it had many others of the same series. It could fly with the wind, and everything, it was a 2D game better than pac-man with stages and the music was like midi of other games. One of those I remember of the songs where "Dr. Wily Stage 1 of Megaman 2", and many other songs of the 80's and 90's english songs, only that there were MIDI, haha. At the end there was a speaking like a scary voice speaking to the pac-man (I'll call it like that, hehe) that looks like there was a continue game of it, but... well, I don't remember more.

?4.-This last one was like an Arkanoid game, maybe the game was named like that but I don't find it anywhere. I remember that, when you hit the ball with electricity, the ball goes quickly, and, when you ball was touched with acid, the ball vanish every block on the way. Also, I remember that in some level, UFO's appear and you can hit them, haha. It was a very coloful game.

Well, hope you can help me with those ones that are very important for me.

P.S. Sorry for my poor english... hehe

Hello everyone , i need help with a game,i was searching this game for 2 years and didnt find it :(
It is a top down perspective shooter(and a bit of rpg because it has upgrades like eye,arms,legs implants and weapons)
Its very similar to alien shooter,but it isn't the ALIEN SHOOTER.
I know at the start of the game you could 1 out of 4 characters and going to missions with an airship(or something similar) to some kind of laboratories with mutants/zombies and cyborgs.
I remember just 2 of the characters(1 was some kind of agent with sunglasses and a shotgun,and the other was a topless guy with a katana)
I have really no idea on what year range this game can be, i can just aproximate the years,i think this game was made between 2000 and 2007, i know it doesn't help too much...but thats all i know ,i thank you all in advance for searching and helping , and as always have a nice day :D

FORGOT TO MENTION , ITS FOR WINDOWS.

Hello everyone!
Like many people on here, I made this account since I can't seem to remember the title to an old pc game I used to love.
Some details I remember are:
late 90s pc game
traveled through different periods solving puzzles
One puzzle in particular that I remember is: needed to dial 'DYNAMITE' in Morse code to finish task, the hint was transmitted through the radio
Another one would be, trying to get a specific amount of water in 1 beaker (there were 3 of different sizes)
Last one, I vaguely remember, had something to do with bowling...
If anyone remembers anything like this, that would help a lot! thanks in advance!
Connections: It's A Mind Game

http://www.adventurepoint.co.uk/#/connections/4525386699

and is not bowling, is other game more similar to golf but is not golf either...

I really could use some help with finding a game. When I was a little kid, i played this game for hours with my father. Since then we tried several times to retrieve te game but we couldn't find it.

Here are the things we remember from the game:
In the game you were a ship, shooting other ships down and collecting new cannonballs etc. I believe the logo was an purple owl looking at you. My father says he knows for sure the title was 'Shipwreck' or 'Shipwrecked'. But since we can't find anything I'm not sure about that. We played this game on windows ME/95. We played the game for the last time probably around 2005.

I hope this helps and perhaps one of you can help us out. This massive forum looks like people knowing their games so that's why I would like to give it a try.

Thanks in advance!

I have two games I cannot remember well. They were both Jrpgs, one was for Psone and the other for Ps2 I believe.

1st one: All I can remember is when the game started you where a purple dragon inside a crystal, which breaks and then you pass out or something. Then a bit later you're a human. The fighting was turn based.

2nd game: The only thing I remember for this one is that the game had a cool mechanic in which you could make monsters to fight in your team from some puppet looking things. The fighting was also turn based and you could move a certain amount of blocks kind of similar to Agarest War.

Sorry for such little info please help :/

I have a few games which I have never been able to figure out their names, but I can only think of one right now.

I played this game when I was 3 or 4 years old, so realize this may be innacurate :) . I played it on an old school computer (it was no later than 1991 I think) and I believe the game had 5-10 floppy disks. I have always wanted to say it is called Dragon's Lair, but every internet search I've used has always turned up games that never look similar.

Anyways, I remember you start off in shack or small farm type building, and outside is your pet pig (I wish I could remember his name! lol) I don't remember how you move around the world, but I believe it's an isometric view which is stationary. I think I remember a large river south east of where your farm is and I remember eventually entering a cave, which I believe had a dragon in it, and after entering you needed to climb a rope or get a rope to proceed. That's all I can remember, someone help! This has been bothering me for 20 years :)

One of the other games I wish I could remember more about was more recent than NES but definitely older than SNES (I remember most SNES games I've played, I have a pretty good memory) All I know is it was a JRPG. I know that isn't helpful, but it wasn't any Final Fantasy, Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, or Phantasy Star. It wasn't Shining Force (and it wasn't a tactical rpg), but this thread just made me think of that game and how amazing it was...
I'm quoting myself in hopes someone will know what game this is, since it's been a few days :)

tomba??

Overboard! [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overboard!] and was also released under the name Shipwreckers!

Developed and published by Psygnosis whose logo was a purple owl.

This game was on the original xbox and was a fighting game. It was with really small cartoon like characters. A few of the places you could fight are on the back of a truck with a cop chasing you, another place you could fight is Christmas orientated. I remember there being sort of like a narrator that started and finished the game and I remember there being bright colours
Sounds like Kung Fu Chaos [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kung_Fu_Chaos].

SOLVED NOW
I've got a game I WAS looking for:

It's on Computer (can't tell you which, mac,pc,commodore; though i'm fairly certain it was some form of windows as i'm pretty sure it had internet explorer on it). also fairly certain it was installed and i didn't have to go through DOS or anything.

Figure before '98 possibly even before '95

You had an overworld (which was nearly top down) and you would go into areas/dungeons, with red flag poles next to each one. When you beat it, the flag outside would change from red to green.

You may have even gotten something in each area to progress to the next place.

Pretty sure main character was a boy with blond hair and possibly some blue clothing.

It'd be amazing if anyone knew what the heck I'm talking about.

SOLVED: By a stroke of luck looking through screenshots on google, I saw floppy's of commander keen. after staring for about a minute, I youtube'd it and that's what I was looking for. Better yet It's now on steam.
