I have been trying to remember this game for years and for the life of me I can't. I've looked under listing of games and spent hours looking on the internet or places that sell old games. The game can only be on the NES SNES or Sega I know the main character is female and her color is split in half, one side has a bat wing and she was purple I think, the other side had (could be wrong) an angelic wing and was pink. The wings are on her hat by the way. If you keep shooting your energy the power and rate of fire begins to decrees. I also know the shop you could go to in game sold a white color, and maybe one other color. One of the first bosses you fight is just a big revolver that follows you around and shoots one of two different color energy shots. At a much later level in the beginning you can go left or right and depending on the path you pick a serpent type monster with a head on each end eats you, the rest of the level involves you traversing the inside of this (lets call it a dragon) till you exit the other end. I know later on one of the bosses you fight transforms into a werewolf. The last thing I remember is during the credits you could play as a few of the characters from the game, at least most of the bosses, including a male character that for the life of me I can't remember how he was important (ends up turning good I believe but the reasons are lost to me)

I need help finding this game. Last time i played it was about 11 years ago and ive been looking for about 5. But here is the details, it was a ps1 game that featured co-op. The game was 3d and it had you complete missions for more units but you eventually have a little bike with a smoke signal a tank and a two leg walker like thing. It was awesome but i only played it for about a day as it was my uncles.

ok this game is hard for me to explain bc i remember it vaguely but it was an old pc game i highly doubt it was really popular but i played it as a kid back in the 90s, i know theres like 5 pictures like scenes you go through its more of a point and click game but at one point you have to keep catapulting into a castle window if you dont aim right you obviously dont get in but once you do youre just in a bed room and you have this device and you can either shrink down or you have a magnifying glass i forget but you can see the fibers of a carpet and can click the bed pillow etc and see the fibers bc i guess your reasoning was to try and find something in it, which i dont remember,m you can also go through a forest and i believe one part had a space ship or something next was trees but you could point and click all the way to a collisium to fighht something but i forget that too, also you could go into a mine/cave that is all i can remember somebody PLEASE say they know what im talking ab ive been trying to remember this forever

Hello all. The game I need the name of was an arcade game in the mid 80's to 90's. It was similar to ring king in that you could move up down left and right. It had two buttons jab and hook/ko. You were in an asphalt court for a ring and your opponents surrounded you as you fought them one at a time. The only for I remember was a doctor that wore green scribe and a white face mask. When you knocked him down the mask covered his eyes. It's not: street fighter, pit fighter, mortal kombat, streets of rage, fatal fury, final fight, time killers, killer instinct, renegade, double dragon, ring king, I'm up for ideas.

Hi, need help identifying a game I have been searching for for years.

It is a side-scrolling platformer, played it on Windows 98/XP around year 2003. It has a very unique element, the main character can transform into different creatures at checkpoints, I remember one of them resembled a pink bunny that allows for jumping high. Its graphics were colourful and nicely done. It had different levels and platform climbing, but I probably just the transforming element is enough for someone who has played it.

Whoever identifies this can claim my soul.

Okay if anyone can help me out I will love you forever it anywhere from 10-20 years old cant remember what console but it was a RPG where the main character played an MMO and some sort of Virus or somthing hit the MMO and you actually played inside the Main characters MMO trying to destroy the virus and stuff it was a multi game series. It was single player. It was wierd but I believe the game started off by one of his Real life Friends dieing and he comes to find out it was somthing that happened inside the game and as it develops he finds like a super evil power inside the game or what not that is not supposed to be there.

I believe it was a seires where the title stayed the same and subsequet games stayed with teh story line but were titled like Degeneration / Outbreak stuff like that.

Are you thinking of Shining Tears?
Nope, thats not it. :/ It had to do with a rather common plot of a band of rebels/outlying nations trying to stop an evil empire from subverting the entire realm, etc etc. But it turns out in some weird twist that the main character, who had amnesia, turned out to be THE emperor. And so at the end, you can choose whether or not to be the emperor, or to stay with all your friends and stuff you made playing the game and whatnot. The game was a strategy game, turn based. And the characters fought with "ring" weapons, as in...all the weapons were rings. Just rings, anyone could equip any ring, but based on their soul, it would turn into different weapons. And the main characters ring always turned into a broadsword. I remember another character you get later on was a bard who had a rapier.
So far, no one has been able to find this, i've been spending several hours a day for the past three weeks trying to find this game to no avail, can anyone at all help me identify this? This is pretty much my last shot at finding this amazing game again, I won't repost this again. :/

I'l ltry to explain the combat system as best as i can, because that is what was so unqiue about thius game...
Instead of finding weapons, you found rings. The rings had diferent stats and attributes on them, even special affects liek vampiric, etc. You could put a ring on anyone, but whenever that person entered combat, it always turned into their soul weapon. The main character had a giant two handed broadsword, like almost cloud buster sword style. It was a turn based strategy tactics game, and I can't recall how many peopel could be in your party during combat at once, but I do remember there being like 20+ diferent playable characters you could recruit, each one with individual storylines and personalitys, and based on who you recruited, how, and how you treated them, affected the ending of the game. And I also remember that at the very end, you can choose to save one. (all of them, even the male characters start to fall for the hero by the end, and based on how you treated them, even when they find out you're really the villain ,they still like you, and at the very end, you get to choose one to save, and thats what chooses the ending you get, because they end up as the characters romantic interest and the rest of the story plays out based on the goals of the hero + their romantic partner. I believe it may have been over the course of two games and had to have your save file imported, but I am not 100% on that.
Try "Growlanser III: The Dual Darkness".
Thats it, thankyou! Although, I believ eit was only the first two I played, I didn't realize they had made a third one.

Okay... I have this one P.C. game I cant remember the name off. Your character wakes up in a laboratory (the character is a boy with blue hair.) You then walk to the next room where you fight a professor and his tank you then destroy that tank and escape from that laboratory and go to the outside world where there is a cut scene of a man (I cant't really remember sorry) I played this game like during the time of 2008-2010 sometime during that time) This game is the first part of the full series (the series consists of two parts.) On the second part the last battle is in space with this monster where you win and you are stuck in space for a while then you are rescued. Oh by the way the boy had a "blue power" meaning it was like a unleashed attack which was the color of blue.
Thanks for your help and please help me find it, I Googled it for hours still nothing so good luck and I hope you find it!

Try WarGames: Defcon 1. I only got to play it once with a friend and I loved it at the time, from what you said and what I remember that's the only thing I could find

I played a PvP strategy game years ago - I can't remember the name of it - and it's driving me crazy!
It was a turn based e-mail game - involving space marines, robots, and an insect race (I think). You were allotted points - bought your units (I think for the marines you could choose: grunt, medic, grenadier (w bouncing grenades), sniper, re-load base, and commander.
Any help would be appreciated!

I'm at the end of my rope here, I just spent a solid 3 hours in the dark recesses of the internet looking for clues, but so far I haven't found anything at all.

I'm looking for a game from the early 2000's I think, possibly 1999 - 2005, whenever AOL was still doing those free trial CD things.

It came as a demo on an AOL free trial cd, I remember the disc was black and red and came in a box.
The game itself was a sci-fi space game with 3D graphics, but it was sort of a top-down game. You flew this space ship out and around this planet, flying low, like you could see the ground and couldn't get past some walls. You'd collect items and minerals and stuff and go back to the garage and upgrade your ship. I don't remember what the objectives were exactly, but at the end of the demo there was a gate of some sort to the next world/planet/level whatever, that served as the end of the demo. I'll never forget, some of the enemies were these floating aliens as big as your ship, that hovered above the ground just like your ship did, and they had dinosaur-like roars. I also can remember these (blue?) crystals you'd shoot to get minerals from, and the metal garage area. The whole level was pretty big, and you had a minimap so you didn't get lost, but you had to explore an area to get it to show up on the map. I'm not 100% on this part, but I think it was snowy/icy or something. I remember it being pretty isolated, as in you were the only human in it, but I may be wrong.

If anyone knows this game, I'd be eternally grateful, and if not, well, I guess I'll continue my hopeless search.

Was it Quantum Space?
I stumbled across that in my witch-hunt. Try checking that out.

EDIT: Here, try this link. It's got a whole list of play-by-email games.

Happy to help, also the name of the game I was looking for is Dark Orbit.
Now to find the right version of it..

EDIT: It was a 2003 WildTangent game, and it DOES NOT exist anywhere anymore. It's been discontinued. At least I found out what it was called ): My hunt is over. Time elapsed: 7 hours

I remember this game i think it was played on the sega megadrive (Genesis) in the 90's. Description of it you were a little spaceship with baby angel wings where you would fight bosses, last boss with a big rainbow fish. That is all i can remember. If someone could remember would help a great deal as i have been searching for hours
