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

[WithoutNick]

Hello guys,

for past few days I was looking for an old PC game I used to play around 2002/2004.
I'm not sure if it was demo or the actual full game. You were flying a tiny alien ship inside of a living room with a furniture, bookshelves and stuff and you were trying to shoot the enemy alien ships.. If I remember correctly, they were sort of cross shaped, but this might not be true. There also might have been more than just one room (more levels).

It was a 3D with a decent graphics for the time.. And you could also fly underneath the chairs, furniture, between the books and lots of other stuff. It was really sort of just for fun game.

Hoping for some clues. Any ideas?

I have so many games that I cannot remember the name of. One recent one I found was called "Food Fight" for the Atari, which I played on my TV as a kid. It took me years to figure it out.

Anyways, I'm back with another game description.
It is a 3D robot war game where you can fight other people online. It is not too old, but not recent.
The robots can be different colors and you end up selecting different parts/randomizing your robot to become very large, small, or statistically more capable of killing an opponent. I'm not sure about level up, but I do now you get one missile and possible one shield per round. Robots perform mostly short range attacks and jumps.
Ranking has stayed the same for a while bc the best bots are rigged. I believe the number 1 spot is a giant blue robot.

That is all the info I have.

Since I stumbled up on this thread I just have to give it a try. This game has "haunted" me for yeeeears, and I never even got to play it (which is probably why I want to so badly)

My friend had it and I'd watch her play. It was about a boy and his dog. They were at a very old farm and the dog goes missing, so you start by trying to find it (that's the only thing I'm sure off). Then you go on to rebuilding the farm and growing plants and stuff. That's all I remember, if it's even correct.
I have previously tried to find it myself, with no luck, but it did lead me to Harvest Moon. It might be a fault in my memory but I don't think it's that, I recall an ever so slightly darker feel to it, the farm was run down and ugly and the soil was bad and such.


Hoping for some closure at the least, haha

It would help if you remember if she played it on a specific console or a PC..also an estimation of released year/s would help a lot. On the other hand, I don't think that any of the Harvest Moon games could have such that dark feel..perhaps it was an indie pc game...

can somebody please help me figure out the name of an old game?
I can't remember if it was PC or PS1. PC i'm pretty sure.

it was like this ghost type town and there was these ghost children or something and you had to figure out clues. I remember there being this little girl jumping rope constantly and this kid with a missing eye or two. and I remember you can play TicTacToe with a kid and you have to figure out a combination on this gate. and I believe there was this huge evil lady with a key or heart that you had to get to in order to destroy to end the evilness to the town.
I dont remember much, I was so young. I only remember little details.
I also remember trying to talk to the children but most wouldn't answer.
maaaan, idk. it's really frustrating me.

Trying to remember the name of this game. Old Neo-Geo game that I used to play on Neo-Geo arcade (remember those?). It was a side-scrolling beat-em-up that was about as Japanese as a pack of Akitas fighting over sushi.

You played these guys who were fairly standard fighting good guys, but you could pick up power-ups that would transform you into a variety of different characters, including a Samurai sword master, a Ninja who moved everywhere by doing back flips (which 11 year old me thought was awesome) and even a Samurai Dog (which me now thinks is awesome). You fought enemy Ninjas, Samurai, Demons, who all seemed to come from some floating Japanese castle in the sky, and there was even one level that took place on the a galloping herd of horses (yes, awesome).

Anyway, I've had this game stuck in my head and I can't remember what it was called, anyone know?

Hi there, I registered here because I found this thread and maybe you can help me.

It was on PC, I played it with my sister at the same keyboard in 2 player mode. We played a blue and a red furry "tribble" like creature with a Christmas cap on their heads, they had guns like a machine gun, flamethrower, also a rocket launcher. And we were supposed to shoot at each other. It was 2D, cartoon like, jump and run like, no split screen, it was only one picture per map where you moved in. The enviroment was snowy because it was all christmas themed. The background music was no christmas song I think, there was a piano in it.

I like remembering it because it was a lot fun to play, the guns were crazy. With the flamethrower, you shot single flames which lied then on the ground and hurt you if you ran into them. The rocket launcher was more a cruise missile if I remember correctly. Also the little furry guys were so cute.

I don't remember much more which would help, I just know that I had it only in a trial version from a PC magazine. Also I don't remember the exact year I played it but it should have been around 2001-2004.

It's an Action Adventure game in PS1.
The game is in 2D.

I only able to remember the first part of the game.
The main character was in a village on "Green plains"?, then doing small missions to level up. After that he enters a dungeon, it's kinda hazy but the dungeon is like catacombs?.
Before i entered the dungeon, the character only has a red bar of health. Then when he entered the dungeon, there's a blue bar and he can use Fire? magic.

It has a very close similarity to Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain, but that's not it.

The second thing i remember, when you load the game there's this "patch message" like before you run Spyro year of the dragon there's this "PDX Paradox" message before you play the game. That was when i played it in the console.

-1990's, possible early 2000's
-PC, 3D
-you controlled a futuristic vehicle (maybe hovercraft) that could shoot missiles
-Initially, your vehicle would lose health if you spent too much time on the water
-Point of the game (as I recall) was to collect 3 diamonds from different points in the map (they were always random) and kill bees and destroy their beehives (which could drop one of the diamonds).
-Once you had the three diamonds, your vehicle would be able to float over the water and reach a destination tower

Need help finding a game about a monk and summoning.It's a PC game, not an MMO ,and it's not turn based ,my guess it was released around 2000, where you play some kind of monks ,somehow related to sound ,you have have a staff with a crystal in which you can trap different creatures and then you can summon them in battle .You can' choose classes and to level up you need to wait for a day to pass .The game is from a third person view , and you also have some stat leveling system.Also as far as i remember you start somewhere that resembles ancient Greece ,and at some point travel somewhere that looks like Northern country .
P.S.I am pretty sure it's not any game from the Elder scrolls series.

Hello guys, somebody asked about this game but I will ask again, please help.

There is a game which has been driving me mad lately because I can't figure out the name of it.

I think it came out around 1998-2002, but i'm not really sure. The game was played with a top down view, kind of like Pacman with walls and so on. There were different kinds of monster spawners which spawned werewolves, zombies, gremlins? and a sea monster. There were different kinds of weapons to pick up to kill the monsters. The pistol was good against the werewolf, salt? was good against the sea monster and there was a lamp which was good against the gremlins i think. And you could only carry one weapon at a time.

I'm not sure, but I think you completed a level by grabbing an item that would let you go to the next floor and the goal of the game was to get a high score or get to the highest level.

The sea monster kind of looked like this: http://vector.me/files/images/9/0/90746/scooby_doo_7.jpg

I played a RTS game when i was younger and i don't know the name ... the icon was a green mask ... like a spartan green wood mask ... if i remember right... the town hall was a castle with towers and you get gold from mines ... i remember that you have a end game cave ... and you can make giants with diapers and a big bat ... skeletons and a necromancer that starts a meteor rain ... or something like that ... to win you need to destroy the enemy castle ... so the necromancers were perfect for this thing ...

This one is gonna require a true RPG nerd expert, I think.

It's an RPG (or level-up-your-guy game) I played when I was a kid, so it's from like -94 or earlier. It has really blocky, pixely, old-school graphics, I'm talking almost Zelda 1 blocky, and it's in 2D of course. It's a classic Western fantasy setting. I don't even know for sure if it's a commercial release.

The detail which sticks out in my mind is a puzzle where a wizard (I think) asks you a question you must pass, and what you have to do is go to a library in a different part of the world and look up his name, and you'll find a book he's written with the answer in it.

If someone actually comes up with this one I'll be impressed...

Bump!
Come on gamers, you can do it...

I just HAVE to ask before I explode. I don't remember anything about the plot of the game I'm trying to remember. What I remember is. I think it was in the 90s. It was a top-down ??rpg??. It was definatelly 3d-ish. You start of near a river or a lumber mill and your teacher/master gives you a tutorial on how to do attacks, I remember you could do spinning attacks if you clicked and spun your mouse. Then after you're done you go off to some castle?? You get some sort of magic sword with ranged attacks then the villain comes. It was a guy in red armor and gray hair. You run off. Then I don't remember any of the following parts of the game except the part where I used to be stuck. You were fighting a demon of some kind above a lava pit and you could only hit him with your magic sword and I think it was only when he was recharing. The game definatelly had potions. I know this is kind of vague but I'm dying inside. I HAVE to know.

Bump, I really need to know!

 

[Schneid67]

There was this game that my dad had back in the mid-90s on our Apple computer. I don't remember too much about it, but I remember walking around a dark, futuristic looking city in the beginning and you could walk into the buildings and one of the buildings was a bar with a female alien dancing on a table? in it. I think there might have been flying cars above you in the city too? It was a first person view and I'm pretty sure it was point and click. Sorry I don't remember more about it. Anyone have any ideas?

Bump. I REALLY need to figure this out. Can anyone help?

Somehow reminds me the Sierra Cyberpunk:

Rise Of The Dragon (1991)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FKpkkQH6ZT4

except that it's not an alien girl it's a normal girl...anyway check it out.

Thanks, but this wasn't it. The game I'm thinking of was from later and had better graphics.

OK, then try:

The Space Bar (1997)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwoOEf7X-lQ

better graphics and there is a pink female alien dancer (and singer) in the bar

This isn't it either. Closer though

There is another possibility:

Angel Devoid - Face Of The Enemy (1996)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtpKqgE9sVY

everything matches your description: year, floating cars, dark futuristic, Macintosh, etc... except, (again) the "alien" dancer girl point.. there are actually 2 normal girls dancing on the bar..check it out, you got nothing to lose.

This was the closest yet, but still not it. The one I played didn't have that weird video in game thing they used to do in the 90s, but tone and atmosphere were closest with them. The one I played totally had those sort of blade runner vibes

I don't rightly care how you answer these questions but I'm in need of some game intel. There's two games I'd like to know the names of. The first is an old NES game I remember vague details like how the playable character was a kid with a baseball bat and if he consumed a special pill he turned into a green dragon for a short period of time. The other game is a bit newer but still very old as I only remember reading about it in a magazine I think it was either People Teen or Teen People I recall it spoke about the Manga Fruits Basket. What I do remember about the game was that it was an RPG you play as a male teen and he had a talking cat that supplied advice for him. I also remember vaguely that there were some steamy scenes like how this girl(I think she had blue hair) exposed her self to him the mag showed her back with seriously long blue hair going all the way down to her derriere I think it was for the Play Station if that helps any. There are other words I vaguely remember like Lunar or Blue Element I once tried doing a search for Luna of the Blue Element but nothing came up, so help would be appreciated.

The second one is probably one of the Lunar series, Lunar:Eternal blue is probably what youre looking for. But theres also Lunar:silver star story ( i like that one )

[hellsing99]

Not his :/

So i got a hard one

I played it in the 90s on windows 98.
It is like an military game where you randomly get a tank , jet or a buggy.
And sometimes you get an ultimate huge "tower" with guns and missiles.
All maps are as big as the screen and you can play it against a friend on the same keyboard.

Thanks in advance
Tschens

Maybe:

Incoming - The Final Conflict (1998)

I really hope you know the name of this game, I do not remember if it was snes or mega drive sorry.

 

[oreade]

Does someone remember the name of this game??

Console: Famicom.
Genre latformer.

Notable characters:
The Main character looks like Mario, with black pants and a white t-shirt if im not mistaken.

Notable gameplay mechanics:
In the first stage you run into a frog and when you kick it it spits like an egg wich gives a random ability, one looks like a kick uppercut. There's a stage with rising lava and i recall one boss that always killed me ... it was just a HEAD throwing orbs (blue orbs).

 

[JoakimRezek]

Hey I REALLY need help on this one. This might be like maybe 15 years ago on PC, might even be on the internet. It was a multiplayer co-op game where you could be different characters. A lot of different characters that also had different abilities, like fire, ice maybe lightning and stuff like that. I remember that the fire-guy had spiked haircut. (not dragon ball)
It might help saying it was a side-scroller 2D beat ´m up game. It was free. You could play with your friends online.

I found a picture with loads of cartoon characters where some of them really REALLY reminds me of this game.
