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

[JF2000]

I've got one, I played it in early-mid 2000s. It was in prehistoric time, and there were lots of dinosaurs (the main theme was dinosaurs, in fact) and you would have to collect eggs and purple energy crystals to hatch them inside a volcano base. There were tons of little mini games where you would find the eggs or energy crystals, and there was always this T-rex that would chase you down and would act like a timer. One mini games was crossing a tar pit stepping on fossils and shells. Please help if you can! Thanks!

Also, I think it was on Mac, but I'm not sure.

Dinosaur Adventure 3D (1999 Version)

Thanks a lot, that's it!

ok evryon, now i have been looking for this game a few years now and i just cant seem to find it. i remember allot about it, yet the name alludes me.

here we go
you play as a rather fat dragon walking on it's to feet, it can shoot fire out of it's mouth but it can not do it verry far.
the game takes place in a tower and is a level based game where you have to reach a ladder in the upper corner of the world in order to progress in the game.

now i am not shure about the name of this game but i do remember a large number being in it like 2000,3000 or 7000
as for the year it was made i think it was between 1990 and 2003(kind of a big gap i know)

Thank you in advance

What system did you play this on? Was it 2D?
Did the dragon have wings? Could it fly?

i played in on the pc and it was a 2d game. no it could not fly tho you could jump. not shure on the wings part

so this has been an idle one for a while, and i still have not found it.
fir sine additional info: i only played a demo of this game and could only get to floor 25 i think
it had all the normal things in it like spikes and stationary cannons, and poisones water

Hi guys!

I really need some help right now its been on my mind for a long time, wondering whats the name of "THAT" game.

Here's the things i can only remember.

Played it on PC
2D fighting/arcade/scrolling(left to right) game
1 or 2 players
fights people/zombies/vampires/robots from the future
can get stronger when buying foods at the local restaurants
lifts tires/barrels/people and throw them

and lastly the cover of the game is kinda like a picture of bunch of people with their eyes covered with black " X " marks.

That's all i can remember so far.
Thank you in advance!

BUUUUUMP!

I have been looking for this game for a while. It was early 90s i believe and it was a turn based game. The concept was that you had to take your guy through life and earn the most possible. You start with education, high school, college, doctorate etc, then get a job (fast food server, doctor etc.) and get an apartment and fill it with items you earn. It was week based and over the weekend it told you what you had done. It had a comical twist to it. The weekend items always said something like"this weekend you mainly watched mould grow in your fridge!" Any thoughts?

So, I am looking for a game which was something like this:

It was a 2D fighting game for the NES. You were a little guy/kid which could fight with his hands. You would encounter other 'enemies' and have to fight them and of course win. You then after a while would encounter a boss which you had to fight too.

During the stage you could get weapons (or you could buy them between the stages, or both, not sure anymore).

The weapons I remember were something like:
A bat/stick
Nunchucks
Things like that. I don't remember guns, swords I am not sure about.

I also think you could improve things about your character's abilities. (Fighting combos too I think).

It looks like Bad Street Brawler, but that isn't it. But the idea of the game is similar!

Thanks for the help.

Here's the description,hope someone can help.It should be a playstation game(it's in a disc form).It is an adventure game.The main character is a magician with yellow hair.He gains new magic power from a witch after you pass certain levels.They enemies are human and weird creatures.And there are 2 bosses that are mosquitoes.The main character attacks by punching them and the enemies would fly away and leave behind eyeballs bouncing around.The first level is in the jungle with many purple fruits like grapes everywhere.And the second one is about music.There are super giant men holding spikes like drum sticks.There are water droplets in all levels.They are in the air just like coins in super mario.each level has several stages.Anyone knows the name?Thank you.

This is Rayman.


Now one for me that I've asked about elsewhere without luck, but I don't have much to go on.

It was a 3D platformer on PC, I don't know the release date but I was running it on a 233Mhz Intel system with 4MB 3DFX chip. I only played a demo of it, but it was set on a beach, I think at sunset. That's all I can remember, unfortunately.

Thanks alot!!I have been looking for this for more than 10 years!



I have another one.It's also a playstation game.The main character is an animal with black and white hair.It's like a rodent or raccoon or something.It can be in several formsarachute/jumpping/digging.the game has many levels and it eventually leads to the space.There are many golden stars in each level.That's all I can remember.Hope someone can help.

Hey
So, i played it around 2005, game was like 3mb in size, you just had to progress as far as possible to get a highest score. Here is the hand-drawn picture of it https://scontent-b-fra.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/10421626_524336007713010_4435313648061337226_n.jpg?oh=f044293f71286b0b0e2b7df08c92d3cd&oe=54A79FE2

Just shoot some rope to the platform and it throws you in air, the lower you are, the higher you will be thrown, both you and rope are bouncing off the walls. It's game over if you fall. With time there will be less cubes in platform, till 1 is left. Background was sky-blue with patches of clouds

P.S. I played on Mac

My forgotten game is an old ps2 game. It was a RPG turn based strategy game. What you did was ride on a horse fighting creatures and recruiting people for your squad like thing. When you were riding on your horse it wasn't 1st person it was super zoomed out and when you ran into an enemy it would zoom into a mini square-like battlefield. Then you would take turns moving your characters around and attacking. I think you made money by killing enemies and then spent it on buying new people for your squad. I remember you could buy archers and orcs. It was a medieval time game. That's pretty much all I remember.
Thanks for the help!

It isn't one of the Kessen games is it?

I've been searching for this game for a while now. It doesn't help that I was fairly young at the time. All I remember is that to start the game I had to select robo on my cousins computer in Italy... the game is a 2D scrolling world (you can go back and forth within one level so not forced to continue on) about (i think) a robot. that when you pressed space-bar would stretch and grab on to something or just keep stretching. You could jump into a funny looking car that could move on its own at the end of level 1 which was a world that went up and down alot (like Hills I assume) but quite simple level. Other levels had items you could pick up that would heal or make you immune for a while and I believe one would kill you on the spot. the game had a scrolling world level selector. there are more than 40 levels at least.

I remember playing this and Commander Keen IV (recently found the game) and a tetris game that I think was called block out. probably 1993-1996, the computer wasn't quite running windows 3.1 yet I think

I remember an old game i once played back at my cousins, i was very young, and I think it was either ps2 or gamecube, you played as some sort of cyborg maybe? you could kill people and machines and pick up parts of them to integrate into yourself i believe, i remember picking up a lot of hearts. also most everything I remember about it was gloomy or darkish.

Hi guys, sorry for my bad english but i'm actually looking for a game that i played with my dad when i was a kid, all i can remember is that it was a very old PC Adventure game with First Person View, the year was around 1997-1999 i think, there were a lot of puzzles and locations, one of those was set in a place with a lot of stones that resembles stonehenge and the clearest detail i can remember is that the simbol of Yin and Yang (or something very similar) was on the cover of the CD, i know it is not much but i was like 4-5y old so please have mercy

This sounds a lot like Stonekeep to me.

I have one too It's a old windows game. I seem to recall it being on CD but i'm not terribly sure. You played up to two players with sunglass wearing fellows with triangle shaped heads. It was similar to bust a move but the levels had objects you had to match up bust a move style (I recall one level in specific having office supplies) The music was very smooth jazz sounding and I remember it being very poignant. You launched your items to match off the tops of your character's head and I recall the controls being difficult for my younger self. Thanks!

[Colress]

HELP, PLEASE! I cannot for the life of me remember or find the name of a certain DOS game I played as a kid, I only remember that it was a puzzle-based game taking place in some creepy location, featured a cloaked villain, and the levels repeated themselves and that one point toward the end was always some weird thing blocking a door that you needed to go through; the one that stands out in memory is a giant stuffy nose. Anyone remember this?

No it's nothing like dungeons, fights etc. there were only puzzles as far as i can remember and you could move the camera freely not like in the game you said.

Bump!

ok, i played this game when i was a kid, it's like godzilla, you shoot fire out of your mouth and destroy the army that are attacking you. I remember the crosshair being an atom symbol, and on the loading screen there was an eyeball. also i remember the executable file being monster.exe. Can anyone remember what the game was called?

The stretchy move is exactly what James Pond does.

The "Robo" you're talking about launching could be short for Robocod, which was the name of the sequel (early 90's).

It was a 2D sidescroller, but I only played it on Gameboy and the level design you describe doesn't sound right. But it did have the car you described, so I'm fairly sure that's what you're looking for.
