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

[TM1995]

I barely remember a game I used to play as a little kid...

It was in the late 90's or the beginning of the 00's. It's a computer game, where you collect resources. You can use different vehicles to collect different resources.. It is a dark, lava/dirt-ish theme. Hope for answers!

hey guys i also have two forttgoten games from my childhood..

- the first one is about a police car that can be transormed into an armor (like the robocop armor) and you can use diffrend kind of wappons..your opponents are machiness,such as huge spiders and stuff..also has a two player mode,where the one is the blue robocop and the other is the red..and you are playing in order to gain land and take over the oponents base..while doing that you can produce tanks,airplains and other machiness..the icon in desctop is a cop budge..i think that the game was called ''robocop'' but when i google it i can only find the classic robocop games...i used to play it in windows 98..


-the second game is the one i remember less.is about 4 different tribes.the blue,the red,the green and the yellow..the chief is the magician.every tribe's magician can use speciffic type of magic.the point of the game is to conquer the other villages and make them yours,while making magic battles..i remeber having the yellow wizard and doing some awesome lightning magic.the icon used to be an earth.i don't recall at all a name..also in '98..

if you know or you think you might know please tell me..i really want to play again these games..ty..^^

been bothering me for the longest time. I'm afraid i don't remember much.

old game from the mid-90s

possibly for early ps1, it was some console game i'm sure (not pc)

the game itself had simple graphics, i think it was a kind of driving/racing/3rd person shooter that could either be single player or 2 player. it was kinda like a classic arcade game, you always drove ahead and the levels looped back on themselves until you killed all the bad guys.

I remember live action scenes in between levels. these scenes were very sci-fi, but what i remember clearly is that there was a silhouette of two dudes watching these scenes from a couch (i guess they were supposed to be the target audience playing this sort of game). these guys would make smart-ass comments and joke around-crashing completely through the fourth wall and embedding itself in my memory forever.

that's all i can remember.
this thread looked like the best place to try for an answer.

Thanx in advance ^.^

I haven't actually played the game, but i saw its trailer like a hundred times, and i still want to play it! It featured some rabbit-like(or something the same size) white creature and it had another squirrel-like(or something the same size) creature cuffed to its arm with a long chain and it(the "rabbit" that is) just went around smashing computers with it(with a squirrel) in some science lab or something.Does anybody know what the hell am i talking about?

That's whiplash

I'm trying to find an old PC game. It was top-down, IIRC. Arena-style soccer, except you drove cars. Started with light little vehicles, and as you won you could work your way up to heavier and more heavily-armed vehicles. There were random 'tiles' on the arena floor that would accelerate or slow you, or one called 'vector-velocity' that just chucked you in a random direction. It might have been for Genesis instead of PC, but I don't think so.

This sounds like the game i've been looking for for a year now I played it on a friends 386 i'm guessing between 92 and 94 it was either on dos or win3.1 as you won matches you could upgrade your vehicle / car. you could also destroy the opposition players if you had a more heavily armoured car - i vaguely remeber one with teeth being able to eat the other team. My friend and i spent the whole night playing this game and drinking beer (possibly why i can't remeber the name) would love if someone could remember the name

cheers

Could this game be "Track Attack"?

Err...either we've gotten a sudden influx of new members or all those 'Anonymous Source' posts are by the same person/bot. :/ I mean...they -seem- like legitimate posts, but they're kinda creeping me out...they've all got this kind of 'super-excited cat' vibe coming off them. But maybe that's just me?

I have a feeling this thread is ranked high on a google search for "games you don't remember the name of" or something similar, and they're just people who came here to get a question answered without lurking first. Their netiquette is a bit weird for these forums, but nothing unusual for the internet at large.

New member here from a google search. I have a friend trying to find a mid 90s turn based RPG for the PC.

Here is what he has told me:
it was more like shining force if you played that
you have 5 or 6 guys on your team, kind of like Hero Academy
each char has movement points, you got to pick the race and class of your people at the start
and there was a race of tall bird guys that could fly
and i remember giving them bows and they could pwn from super far

it was kind of like oregon trail where your class changed your starting shit, so you could be a knight and would have lots of money, and for some reason i rembmer you could be a pirate

and i remember thinking the inventory screen was badass because you could put the armor on them (like diablo 2 but before that obviously)

Hello

There was a game I used to play back in the 90s, All I remember it was an adventure game.
You are a girl (long, dark blue hair) named Maya, you go to a place with a factory and there were some equipment shops and she has companions but you only control Maya, and there's a road you can't pass it unless you beat the blue tigers there.
I'm sorry for this stupid description but this is all I remember I was 6 years old back then.
Please I need to know its name

Thanks in advance

Septerra Core: Legacy of the Creator is not an adventure game, but otherwise seems to fit the description.

Seconding this. That sounds like Septerra Core right down to the name of the main character.

Sounds like it could be Shadow Hearts. I haven't played it in forever, come to think of it. I never finished it but I really liked it.
