Yo guys,

I'm trying to recall an old PC game (I think from the mid or late 90's).
It's a futuristic race game à la 'WipeOut' except in this game the tracks were kind of like tubes and you could drive on the sides of the road as well.
I'm not sure anymore if they were full or half tubes tho.
Also, it was sort of a combat shooter. Your vehicles had power-ups I think, like you could shoot off things and stuff like that.
I got the game off of an old CD-Rom with lots of PC Game demos.

It was a really straight-forward simple racing game.

Also, I'm not sure but I think on the start screen, there was a picture of an alien or an alien saying something like 'let's go or start' or something like that and I think the menu theme was a House beat... (<- really not sure about that part).

I've been trying to find it all day. No luck yet lol.

I'd appreciate your help! Thanks! ^^
Maybe MegaRace, at least that had something whit tubes.

Nope. I don't think the game was on any consoles, just a pc game. Also to note, the vehicles were like the ones in WipeOut/F-Zero. :)

I'm looking for a ps1 fighting game, each time you pressed one of the attack buttons (triangle, circle, square) the characters would say a word and do an attack, when you pressed the three buttons one after the other one in any order, they'd do a special move. I remember it being a large mountainous arena, and some of the characters I remember are:
- A girl that casted as her special move a huge green tornado that followed you around the arena.
- A knight that wielded two swords and casted purple waves as his special move.
- A girl that had ice powers and casted giant icicles as her special move.
- A guy with spiked hair that casted a kind of "kame hame ha" as his special move.

Cheers.
Thanks in advance.
:(
Still no luck :(

I'm not 100% sure I can help but since apparently nobody else has a clue I've got a half-idea in my mind.

This is very much a longshot because it doesn't match up completely with your gameplay description, and you fly around in an arena for this which I think you'd have probably remembered. But your character descriptions of "a girl casting a huge green tornado", "a guy with spiked hair casting a Kamehameha" and "a girl with ice powers" (was a guy in this but I guess the hair was kinda feminine) gave me huge flashbacks to the Psychic Force games.

Hey guys! I've been trying to find this game for a long time but I don't remember what game's that. It was a Ps2 game and the cover of the disc showed many mini sized cars with different features and parts, some with the propeller on the roof, a boat-type car, f1 car etc etc..All I remember was, it was a japanese car racing game, not the 'go fast and furious' type but the one whereby you're able to modify the car, you can put a propeller on the roof of the car and you can practically jump and fly in the air for a moment. And then the car can also drive underwater, OR you can even install a boat-ski like parts, which enable the car to float and glide smoothly on the water. There are more features than i can barely remember.. You can even transform your car to 'F1 racing' type of car. So after modifying your car as you wish, you can go to different towns, and then you'll need to race with other 11 cars..and the requirement is that you need to get to the top 3 ranking, in order for you to go on to the next map.. There were many maps....1 of it is the temple place. And I remember there was another map whereby you need to dive underwater and drive in it. And then you can change the colour of your car, install different honk sounds, as you explore more places and get more items. When you drive in the town and pass by other cars, you can honk them and they will stop. This game is solely about the car, and there is not a human sight to be seen. So if anybody has played before this game can you please tell me what game this is as I'm trying hard to find it.. Thank you guys. Oh and I think the game wass released in maybe year 2000s. When I played the game it was year 2004.. Sorry for the bad English but I've tried my best to explain. I'd appreciate it if you could help me out! Thanks!

Hey guys, I've been google searching for a particular older Point and Click adventure game I played back when I was in Middle School. I have not be able to find anything about it anywhere. Hopefully someone might be able to help me find it and keep me from thinking I'm insane and hallucinating the memories of this old game. It's going to be a tough one to find I feel.

The game in question I want to say was released between the mid 90's and the first half of 2001 because I played it at my middle school from '99-'01. It was a point and click style adventure/survival game with some FMV elements targeted at a Middle School student level. It's plot was somewhere along the lines of protecting the environment. It also supported a first person perspective. That's all I can remember at the moment, I'll put some more thought into it to see if I can remember more.

Oh my God YES!!! This was the series! Thank you so much, it was killing me not remembering the name of the title. I played that game almost every weekday back when I was in middle school!

Hey Guys,

Im looking for a point and click adventure, sans Day Of The Tentacle from the 90s that starts with the murder of a professor who's the father(?) of the main character in the story, who's hidden with some sort of headphone device, the game features all sorts of alien type creatures, it's cartoonish.

There was one game I vaguely remember... It was a first person DOS horror game, I believe. It took place in a mansion filled with monsters (a memorable one was an enormous spider that looked small when you originally saw it,but it was actually far away). One unique thing about the game is that if you took a major injury, such as losing a hand to piranhas, instead of getting a game over, you would have to continue the game without that hand.
Also, happy new year everyone!

im trying to remember a game that i watched my dad play on the original xbox i believe. The main character was an indian or aztec and he slashed other people with his sword. It was very gory and bloody. It took place around old mayan ruins and forests. Can anyone recall this game? It was around the 90's and/or beginning of 2000's.

Hi guys, i realllly need to figure this game out. It was a first person fighter/stealth game on PC. You pretty much had a sword and you were some sort of knight. There would be a time you would walk a round a castle, and in the castle you can find things to pick up/use such as other swords or maybe armor and also other things like apples or fruits. I think you also were able to cook food or something like that. but its not a main thing to cook that was maybe just one time in the game. it was very medeival looking. You pretty much had to sneak around the castle it wasnt full out fighting left and right. I just cant remember the main purpose of the game and what you try to acheive. the game was at earliest played during 2000 and not played after 2003. also i doubt before 2000. I dont know what else to say. try you best pleaaseeeeeeeeeeee

Hey, so I can remember this game that my older brother, cousin and I used to play all the time when I was younger, I can't remember what it's called. I wasn't very old at the time but i'll try my best to describe what I remember.

It was one of those basic games where you have to play as a character and destroy all of the evil things (they would change with different levels) until you get to the end of the level. One of the things I remember the most is that you had a choice of characters. I can't remember them all but I think there was around three males and three females. i can remember one of the female characters better than the others, she was a blonde witch who you could either attack with using her wand or this really weird move where she would turn in a circle and blow a kiss. Like most other games like this you had to destroy barrels and things to get money and food to region health, i remember that if you stole another character's food then that character would say something along the lines of 'how rude!' I also remember one of the bosses clearer than the rest, the top half of it was a woman and the bottom half was a black spider.

Anyway, that's all I can remember, I keep remembering the game but I can't remember the name, if anyone could help then i would be very grateful!

or

Thief II (2000)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVujw3SMqGQ

I need help finding 2 games. Both PC games from CD-ROMs from the 90's.
First game:
Very pixely sidescroller. You play as a green guy who goes up a mountain, then slides to the bottom. You have to fight enemies along the way, and at the top you slide down to the bottom. You have to climb up and slide down like 10 times to beat it. Also, the music kind of sounds like Verdis Quo by Daft Punk.
Second game:
Dont remember much; just that youre in a lab of some sort with a scientist man. he has a long head and glasses and looks kind of creepy. Theres almost always text at the bottom. Thanks!

I'cant remember a name of an old game, it was a driving game with small cars and you could shoot missiles at other cars. If you hit them, they were dead and out of race. I remember driving on a mountain (something with Tibet i guess). I played just a demo game so i don't remember much and i didn't have much options. It was from 90's.

I remember playing a game for the Original Xbox that they had a demo for at GameStop. You controlled a girl who had green hair, it was in third person in 3D, and I remember that she used magic and i think she was fighting a giant? It was around 2005 or so.
