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

[Pariah Dog]

Does anyone remember this game?

It was about 3 kinds of huge robots fighting. You had the blue ones which were more known for katanas, the red ones usually wielding axes and the grayish robots who often used fist weapons. You could build your own robot by selecting it's body, legs (not sure about the head) and selecting what weapons and/or shields it used.

As you were fighting other robots, parts of the enemy could fall off. Some sort of vehicle could then pick it up and take it to your base to reseach it so you could use it for your own robots.

While searching for this game, i often came across similar games, but all of them were 1v1. This game isn't a 1v1 arena game. Just to make things clear

There were also less important tanks involved, one tank was named "nemesis" i think. Those would kind of EMP the robots if I remember correctly.

I played this game on the computer and I'm guessing its year or release should be in the 90's.

I hope someone can give me the name of the game, thanks.

This is a really nice thread. Thanks to all from who created it to them who are replying. I was looking for an old game, its a dual player war game with birds eye view. Each player gets a big meletary strong hold and with it, thry get couple of zips, probably 8, tanks probably 4, helicopters probably 4 and misile silo trucks probably 4. both the player has to destroy each others. Thanks in advance......

Ooh I have one. I used to own an old Windows 98 Desktop back in the early 2000s. I used to always beg my mom and dad for cheap bargain bin PC games which were usually not very good. One I remember vividly had an industrial theme to it. Each of the levels involved factories, smokestacks, power plants, just industrial areas. And it had a real gloomy look to it; red skies, not the best graphics but it was in 3D. The problem is I can't remember if it was a platformer or a driving game. You weren't racing against anyone, you were trying to collect things. I think I just had a demo version of it, because it was part of a cheapie bargain bin game I bought that tried to get you to pay more money and buy the full versions of these games online.

I think you were driving around, trying to collect things. One memory I have is driving through this area of factories and then out into this area where everything was red and orange. It had the look of Hell to it, and I drove up a hill to get something. It had several levels. I think it was about 2003 when I had the game.

Hello everyone,
I am a newbie and my sole purpose in registering on this forum was to find out the name of a game that i played years ago. It's literally eating away at me and i must figure it out. It was for the Playstation 2. Unfortunately, i don't have MUCH information on the game, ill do my best tho.
There was an arcade 1v1 mode where could choose a character and fight other characters. Some characters included a girl with a red skirt that had a yo-yo with Blades in it. Another character was male and had a missile launcher on one of his legs. The intro to the game was so awesome and introduced most of the characters you could play as, it was so epic. Kind of like Tekken. Then there was a "story" mode where you play as a male (or female?) and start off in a giant castle i think. You move from room to room picking up items (potions, weapons, elixirs etc; sometimes from enemies). The enemies were never human. Enemies were mostly weird creatures some on two legs some on four some on tentacles hahaa. You increased in level as you progressed through the castle or whatever and i think maybe you could play with 1 other person (not sure tho). I apologize, as i know this is still very vague. Anything helps thanks for reading!
Also, I'd be more than glad to answer any questions. Thanks again!

Ergheiz. It's a fighting game by Square, loosely spun off Final Fantasy 7 but set in our world.

Here's a tough one, it may have already been answered in the last 500 pages or so.
I think it was Windows 98 (Definitely in the region of post-year 2000)

You played top-down as a car or vehicle in a grey landscape. There were pipes over sludgey water and giant domes, one of them having a hole you could fall through and get inside. Pretty sure you could jump around, too. I think you can to get this odd larva thing, putting it in a diablo-style inventory that was all hexagonal in shape. I think the bigger cars had bigger inventories. Pretty sure there were weapons you could get, too.

It's awkward because I can remember screenshots in my head, and such like that, but the name never really stuck around.

...I think there was a weird insect shopkeeper or something, too.

If you try and figure it out, thanks!

There are two games I'm having trouble remembering...

The first I remember playing on commodore 64 featured a very bland, mostly black rendering of a forest with some trees. Scattered around were potions, mostly red, and shaped like beakers (triangle shaped). There were also keys you had to pick up and I remember most of them were either yellow or blue, at least on the first level they were.

The second game is another early 90s game. I think you were a mad scientist of some sort and you mixed these different chemicals together to play monsters. It also had simple graphics: a black background with the monsters taking up most of the screen. The monsters also looked a bit mix-and-match with the potions giving predictable results.

Thanks in advance!

There is One Game That i wanted to know and i cant remember..

ITs an RPG game based on Car Racing Game...
Its not a Real Car.. but more like a Toy Car that you can upgrade with better part.. and using batery to move it on.... it is like a Tamiya 4wd Car (you can google it for better picture).

Its an open world like pokemon where you can talk to people and race them.. its really remind me of Dash! Yankuro but in a video game..

I believe it was on Old platformer like NES or SNES and definitly made by japanese...

Thx in advance..

I believe the first game you are talking about is Gauntlet: Dark Legacy.

Hello everybody! I am looking for a game that I don`t really know if is it famous or not... I tried to find it in all the ways I could possibly try. Anyway, here it goes:

I used to play this game in the early 90s in my PC. It is an arcade in which the main character runs right and left only. This main character was a man with mustache holding a machine gun and the starts in a destroyed city where cars are in flames, people are dead and there are lots of creatures to kill. One of the creature I remember pretty well was a pinky one that crawls slowly and try to bite you. In tghe first level you enter in a corporative building filled with creatures and dead bodies. The second level (I am not so sure) everything hapens in a jungle and you can clib all the trees there.

That`s all I remember about it. Hope someone knows!

Thanks

Still looking for it

Just found this site today trying to find a game. It was an old PC game...either Windows 94 era or DOS even. Spaceship RTS type game. You'd have a home planet and would play against AI. You could upgrade your ships shields and get stronger bombs ect. Also there were many other planets in the galaxy that you could take over as your own or something to that degree. I believe you mined for supplies on these planets too? Planets ranged in sizes I think, also, and the bigger they were the more resources you'd get from them. Hopefully someone recognizes this as I loved it back then.

Hello guys!

I really hope you can help me... I've searched for some time now and found nothing.

I remember playing a 2d game, where you had to manage a small group of (i think) dwarves.
It played a bit like the game Diggles, but its way older.
You had to keep the dwarves motivated, dig around, build houses and taverns etc. for them. I think the goal was to find some treasures which were hidden in some kind of old "temples". When you entered one of those you had to choose how many of your guys you would take. Inside you had to solve some easy to hard puzzles. Some of them weren't even solvable if you took not enough guys with you.

I am not sure but i think the dwarves had white hair and beards.

I really hope someone remebers that game. I remember, that i loved to play it, but i was just to young to solve the harder puzzles.

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.

dude, probably not, but i've played Death Rally, sounds almost the same.

I've played Death Rally too, but it's not the one i'm looking for..
