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

HELP!
I've been trying to remember this PC game for years, but the more I try to recall, the more it fades...
I think I was playing it a good 15yrs ago.
It was set in space, on a planet? You were a woman, possibly carrying out missions. Birds eye view, flying a spaceship/plane around a grid, much like grand theft auto. The play was interrupted by dialogue screens between characters. I remember there being an accident, and the woman character was now half robot.
That's all I've got...

Any help!

Hey Guys,
Im looking for a really vintage yet nostalgic game. Its a safari hunting game.

You'd get interviewed by a curator and then you get to pick a male or female guide. Then you fly over from america to Africa to hunt some game. Mostly the Big 5 are available. You'd spend a total of 2-3 days there and then return. If you shoot more game than you are permitted then you get sent to jail. Its really not 3D and very cheap graphics but it was sooooo addictive.

Name tags should run : Big 5, hunting game,
THis ran on my Windows 98 box at the time.

alright so i need some help remembering the title of this game for xbox. Its a hack-n-slash game. You are a demon hunter wearing dragoon type armor and you fly around breaking objects and killing literally thousands of these monsters per level. You could find new weapons which were mostly swords but sometimes axes and lances and i believe you could level up the weapons but not entirely sure. Also the only other character was a voice that spoke to you about the threat you had to cleanse in the area. I recall a bunch of bamboo forests that you chopped down and hidden spirits that would come from objects that you broke which resulted in a higher grade rating at the end of the level. I could have sworn the name was similar to okami but i just cant seem to figure it out.

Not sure about all of that, but perhaps you're looking for Otogi: Myth of Demons?

I have been trying to remember the name of this game for years, I'm hoping someone can help me out. It was a PC game, either for Windows 95 or 98, more than likely 98. It was a game about music and the main character was a Penguin who guided you through many little games that all involved learning the melody to a song or the words (to something like There Saints go Marching In and other sort of well known folk songs). It all took place in his apartment. The one part that really sticks out to me is one game where you essentially made your own techno song. You had many different backing beats to choose from varying in tempo etc, then could pick from many samples of instruments and what not, and a few vocal samples, one of which was "I know you gunna dig dis". And then loop it over and over.

This has been driving me mad for a long while now, especially since I heard the "I know you gunna dig dis" sample in a song on my satellite radio not that long ago. If anyone has any suggestions that would be amazing!!

Okay so back in the 2000's I used to play a game on the pc. I remember you had to move through these buildings by unlocking doors and going through them. The object was to find parts and things to build a rocket or something like that. I think you were dressed in like a lab coat or something like that. There was also another person in a lab coat that you were either trying to get the parts before him or build tge rocket before him. At the end you also raced the rockets I think....thats all I remember please help if you know anything. thanks

Thats it! I couldnt, for the life of me, remember what the name was. Thank you very much for your help

edit: Escapegoat thank you very much for your help with otogi: myth of demons

I have two.

1: It's a sidescroller shooter, can't remember what system it was on. You're a musclebound mercenary kinda guy, who wears a bandanna. I remember specifically one level being on a train, and I remember it had some ludicrous boss fights, one of which was an alien mother ship type deal. I think the environment is destructible, though I could be remembering that last part wrong? Also it had two-player co-op, because I remember playing it with my older brother around ten years ago.

2. Game for the SNES, you can play as Godzilla and King Kong and some other giant monsters, and you're destroying a city while also fighting each other.

I'm not too sure what number 1 is, but number 2 sounds like one of the "Rampage" games

Ah, that's definitely it. I forgot you played as the off-brand King Kong and Godzilla. Thanks so much!

Okay so I have tough one. So I remember that this game was in third-person, a shooter, and can be played multi-player locally. (As in from the same pc). It took place in the future. The intro video included one or two "humans" in a red ball sort of thing, sort of like in the Matrix. They would drop onto a conveyor belt, there would be a tube where the umbilical chord would go, and would go down the conveyor belt getting body armor and would get branded on the back of their head in the end. I'm pretty sure this game was from the 90's, but might also be very early 2000's. Also, I might be mistaken, but the game might have been included with a 'Rage 3d series' ATI graphic card. PLEASE HELP!!! Thank you!

Hi. I have a big question for you
I used to play funny game on my mac when I was young. It was about two ogres (green and blue I suppose), there were plenty levels (in 2D) where they had to walk around um... platforms or sth like that. The most important thing that I remember is that they couldn't touch some dogs that were walking and disturbing them passing the level XD. I am searching for loooong years and I'll REALLY appreciate your help! Thank you :3
Oh, um, and sorry for mistakes, I'm still learning English ^^'

Hi
between 92 and 95 I'm not sure when exactly I played a game at a friend on his pc
It's simple! black background and a geometric 3D shape that run horizontally straight in the middle (I guess in yellow) so u need to quickly turn the shape to enter it in the correct similar shapes that run faster later on...

thanks in advance for any info
have a nice day!

Hi,
I'm trying to find the name of a game where there were these little creatures which could have been little miners. They seemed to be underground and they all moved pretty much in the same direction. From memory, the way was blocked and if you clicked them to move to a certain blocked part of the landscape, they would then start digging or something. Also, I remember that sometimes things would explode. I think the idea of the game (or at least some levels) was to get as many of the little creatures as possible out of the enclosed area. If you sent them in the wrong direction, they'd end up in dead ends or fall off or explode or something. Sorry, my memory is fuzzy but I can sort of picture it quite well just can't remember the details. Haven't been able to find anything on the net.
Thanks everyone!

I'm having troubles remembering a game my cousin used to play on the PlayStation. I can only remember a few scenes of the beginning...
it was about some alien-like creatures landing on the street at night. people were gathered around the hole to see what was going on, when it started attaking them and they ran away. anyway, the protagonist of this game is a young girl (early teenager years?) visiting her father at his work (scientis I guess). she caresses a white lab mouse, but it bites her. can't remember what happened next but she starts to evolve in an alien-like thing herself and kills the people around her. the game starts with you moving her around in the ruins and ashes of the lab. (I think...) her healthbar usually raised when she ate remains of the victims or so... I don't know too much about it anymore, been about 13 years since then.

There was this one game I played, or saw my brother playing, on a computer in like 1995, it was a side-scrolling game with a black background that had you walk around a school, taking pictures of ghosts to kill them.

No idea what it was called, no idea in the slightest.

There was a game where you were in a school taking photos of robots to kill them, collecting evidence to figure out which robot had done...something. The character you played looked like a private eye with a camera. It's called Midnight Rescue. It doesn't involve ghosts, but is this the game you're thinking of?
