Ok i tried my research on a game that has been feeding on my insides for the last hour. Here are all the details i ca. remember, hope they help.
Top-down view.
Arcade creator simulation-type game.
The game starts in the 70s (beginning of the age of arcading).
Was for Xbox360.
The games you build in your arcade were rated on how many stars it had. More stars, more money you make from it.
You could have soda machines.
From 2011-2013ish..?

Thanks for any help,
Super
Bumping, been 5 threads. Plz been searching for a week. Sorry if it's too new for this thread :(

Hey does anyone remember this game?
You are controlling a team (probably a swat or navy seals like team) and you are in the sewers. If you lose all your members you have to restart. Then you have to command them where to go, and you can switch between members.
I think it was Ps1, and it was only singleplayer.
Maybe

X Squad (2000)

for the PS2

Ok so this is a game that my dad says he used to play when he was a kid. He said that during the game, you run away from the cops by driving a motorcycle. And that you through stuff at the cop to slow him down. He says he doesn't remember the system and as a birthday present for my dad, i want to buy him this game again. Need help finding out this game's name, thanks.

should be any of the Road Rash series..

for example for the Genesis/Megadrive version

Road Rash (1991)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdhrDE5L7ds

or Road Rash II, Road Rash III for the Genesis too. But there are many other possible versions for other consoles like PSX, Sega CD, N64, etc..choose the one you like.

You're right..this is not the place for that kind of stuff. You should try to look for a patch at the official developer/publisher site of the game (if any!) otherwise, there's always the risk of virus on the patch.

There was this PS1 game that I really cant remember, played it with my friend once.
It was this sort of wolf/dog that wields a sword, it started off in a castle (I think).
But once you past the castle you can explore the area
It was like zelda thing game

hope you can help me out
It keeps bugging me for not remembering it

Okay so a couple years ago, when my MAC still worked, i had this random game on it, that was on the apple store for MAC, where you played this person and you had like this zoo type thing, with squirrels, rabbits, and cats, and you had to feed them certain types of fruit and then they would grow and then baby squirrels, rabbits, and cats would hatch from eggs. But there were also dinosaurs that would eat your little critters, and I cant remember the name of this game, i think it had the word Zoo in it, Im not sure. but i cannot find it any where or remember the name, if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

You might be talking about Okami. It was a PS2 title, but everything else fits.

Hello everybody!
I've been trying to remember/find a very nostalgic game I used to play with my friends in early 90s. I believe it was a DOS game where you play as a red bouncing ball with a smiley face. The major mode of game play was puzzle solving, each level was a giant jumping puzzle where you needed to carefully plan out your route with meticulous timing. The ultimate goal of a level was to navigate you from the starting point to the exit (which is a platform that opens like an inner tube when close). Each stage had different themes with it, for example the first set of stages were based on candies, chocolates, and toffees. These themes extended to the collectables and the enemies as well. The second set of stages were based on circus and toys. I distinctively remember an accordion, cymbal, and drum enemy in these levels. The game required a lot of trial and error to complete a level, memorizing the pattern of jumps and matching the timing of each was the most challenging component of the game play. There were disappearing green platforms if the ball bounces too much, some tilted according to the direction you've bounced to (and will not change back, you could technically lock yourself in between a leaning platform and the wall), some were like trampolines which the ball would bounce much higher than normal, spiked platforms... It was a good looking game, the backgrounds were dark to emphasize the platforms, the ball, collectables, and the enemies. To clarify it was a 2D platform/puzzle game with relatively small sprites but with great details to make them look 3D.

I've been trying to search for this game for years now, but I can't remember the name and internet search did not yield any results. If this game rings bell to any of you, please let me know. Thank you!

Hello Everyone
I hope someone can help me.
I'm looking for the name of a game - I had it on CD 1995 .
There were different guns and machines, the higher you go in the levels, the more ammunition you got and the more advanced your gun/machine. There were 9 levels and I beat the 'beast' once up to level 9. I loved to play the game with my son [btw I'm female! :) ] I am so looking to play that game again. You had to fight off this 'machine' [gun] that was also getting more advance with more guns and features the higher you moved in the levels. I think on the cd label it had the word 'arcade' too.
Hope to hear from you soon!
Thanks!!

Sorry but I can't get the picture of your game, was it a first person shooter like Halo?, or a side-scrolling game like Mario Bros.? what was the 'thing' you controlled in the game, a human? a spaceship? or just a gun? I have the feeling that you're talking about a first person shooter, could be DOOM, or Duke Nukem 3D, etc..but they are kind of mature games. What were the enemies in the game, aliens? monsters? robots? sorry but you have to specify these points.

A shot in the dark, but maybe Descent? Having "Arcade" in the name of the CD makes me think it was one of those shareware collections. The image of having to destroy a machine that shoots at you at the end of every level makes me think of the reactors in Descent, and the shareware version of Descent was almost as common on those discs as Doom.

yeah, sounds good Descent. The 'machines' could've been the spaceships and the 'beast' the reactor..but must have been a shareware/compilation/demos CD because Descent has 30 levels.

Okay so this is a massive shot in the dark. I played this kid in the 90's where you played this point n click game where you played as a child who was trying to capture this like golden beetle or insect in order to enter and win this best insect contest. At one point you were kidnapped I think and at another point you had to deal with chickens. It was a little bit dark at times but I loved the game and would like to play it again. I think the CD was green or something.
