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

[kendrahall]

I remember playing this game when I was younger, possibly on a n64 or PS1
I thought it was mario but every mario game i've gone through is not the one i'm thinking of
It's 3D, big adventure game. I don't remember there being really any levels or anything like that
Anyways the main parts I remember, is a part when your in a castle, a giant robot type thing chasing you
And a area where you have to walk around water on some kind of border or something like that..
I believe you could swim in it but you couldnt get to where you needed to go if you ended up in the water you had to swim back to the place you came out of and try and walk around again
I know it's a super vague description but does anyone have any ideas?

Its not Super Mario 64 (I have that game)

Ok I dont know if this has ever been answered but its been racking my brain for years now and I cant seem to find it. Its a PS1 game which 1-2 players start out on a character selection screen but I can only remember 1 character, he was some sort of cowboy that half of him was a skeleton. once in the game you had to navigate through narrow corridors which you had to bust down secret spots in the walls to find enemies (zombies or just humans idk for sure) then once you found the one path to the boss you killed him and it sent you to the next level. You also had special abilities that helped your character defeat the enemies. does anybody know what game this is?

Okay this drives me crazy for a long time now.
The game I'm remembering was a car related SNES game. Unlike most of the car games back then, it wasn't driving races on tracks, it was more like a stock car pit fighting thing.
You could choose between like 10-15 different characters, all with their specifications (concerning weapons, health and stuff). I'm not quite sure what the goal was, but I think you had to bump enemy cars off the edge of the "map". Or destroy them somehow.

The characters were mostly not-human, if I remember correctly, but I know I found them hilariously funny back then when I was like 8yo. So maybe they had funny quotes or appearance, I don't really know...
I checked all the lists of car related SNES games I could find, without results. A friend of mine told me you could obtain a trophy in one of the SSB games, that would resemble a character of said game, but I couldn't find anything.

As I said, I checked a lot of lists, so I know it's not Battle Cars. And all the other car games I found where racing simulations, whereas my game isn't a simulation at all.
So maybe someone remembers it, since it's obviously quite unknown. Please, I want to know the name of that game. Maybe it's not even funny anymore, but I just need clarity.

Oh yeah, and I remember another car game, where you could choose between 4 cars (a big, but slow truck, a little red racing care, a yellow one I think and a blue one? However, that's not the one I'm looking for either )

I have been looking for an old PC game I really don't remember much but it had many different levels and i mostly remember the level where you fight a lot of spiders and with an axe I think but the spiders get bigger and start multiplying I also think at some point he's in a castle but I'm not sure hopefully someone knows I have been looking for this game for years

I used to play a game that had little circle people who fought. You could use a nuke, darts, and many other things. You could have fought in levels like space, a swamp and one called dynasty. It was on addicting games.

Does anyone remember playing a game where you were a ranger in charge of a wildlife park in Africa? I used to play it on one a school computer in Grade 6, can't for the life of me remember the name. It was point and click Oregon Trail style, you had to make decisions about where to go on the map and try to get to animals before poachers could find them, as well as tracking injured animals and tranquilising them so they could get medical attention. The game had a very strong ecological vibe to it. Like Jurassic Park but without dinosaurs.

(And no, it was not Sim Safari or Wildlife Tycoon).

It seems to be:

Yes! That's the game for sure. We never used to refer to it by name in class, it was just "The Africa Game." Thanks for tracking it down, I had spent ages looking and turned up nothing.

I remember playing this game when I was younger,think it was 2009.
It's PC,RPG game i think.

I remember that i was a dragon (green or blue),and i was flying around,attacking some little castles and some monsters that i found.I think there was several dragons,and they had some powers.
I'm sorry i cant remember more because i played it for only 2 hours.
it was very beautiful graphics,and i really liked controlling the dragon in 3rd person view.

This drives me crazy for a long time,and i would be really grateful if someone find me that game.

Alright guys!

So I've been having the WORST time trying to find this game, simply because I don't remember too much of it. It was from probably the late 90's.. Early 2000's is a stretch. I believe the computer we had was some sort of Mac. the game had a mad scientist who sort of was Albert Einstein-esque.. The graphics were good from what I remember, I believe 2D. Very cartoonish. Possibly educational. Part of the game was that you had to sort of maze your way through a bunch of germs without hitting the germs. I apologise for the crappy description, but any help would be amazing! Thanks.

So I got to repost this since it got burried last time

We are talking about a shmup game, possibly in late 90s. I had played it on my PC, but im unaware if it had released on other platforms.

There is the earth at the center of the screen and your ship can only move around it.

Your purpose is to defend earth by shooting incoming projectiles. If the projectiles scored a hit on the planet, it would loose a chunk.

There were also AI ships that I think tried to shoot your ship directly instead of earth.

The Graphics were full 3D from an isometric perspective and in the menu there was a battle going on between AI ships in the background. I think this game recieved a sequel that went full 3D space combat.

I found a similar game called "galactic protector", but its 2D and much older.

bumpy Mcbumps!!!

Don't suppose anyone is still watching this Thread, but if you are. Im looking for a game in which you play as a yellow guy, who looks like a runner bean toy or a giant pill with legs. But yellow. And you can play a whole range of levels, in which you collect stuff. Its a side scroller from 2000's. I also remember you being able to edit or make your own levels which was kinda cool. Because you could add items like water/cars/helicopter looking things. So yeah, if anyone has ANY idea what game this is, please help.

 

[adamisapsycho]

This one has been killing me for years now. A cartridge-base game (NES or SNES), with two modes- side-scroll spaceship shooter and a character based side scroll platformer. You started with two characters, male and female with pretty much identical moves and on the end of any level you had to release a person from prison to unlock them as playable characters. I remember there was a swordswoman, a guy (ninja) with a whip, tiny guy and a gorilla. You had to find a key and a cage to free them. Level design varied from caves, japanese castle to a modern-day city.

 

[risingsun247]

I see people are still posting in here so I figure I'll give this a try - not sure its the right spot though...

I've been trying to figure out the name of a game that was mentioned on the escapist podcast a while back; However I don't think I can go through the 300hrs worth of podcast to find it.

Platform: DS/3DS (unsure)

Multiplayer - I think local wifi only

Indie/Small Developer - we're talking like ARTEMIS small

You play as an agency/company and there is a system of espionage where you can hire agents, or pay off the other players agents to become double agents and give misinformation to your rivals. So the basic premise is espionage/corporate espionage.

Asymmetric gameplay for everyone - IE people cannot see whose double agents are whose

Any help would be amazing

This might be "I of the Dragon"

 

[bellcross1]

Looking for a game:
Its a PC game, played a demo of it somewhere ~2002. Its a... strategy game I think. You can build buildings AoE style but is japanese themed - hero units or mercs were samurai which gain levels. The map had a unique style in that every "player" had his own square area, once you got to the edge of your area you would move on the "world" screen and from there enter other's areas. I'm not sure if you could build entire armies like in other rts games, I wasn't into such games at the same time but I did like this one. Also, I'm not sure about the depth of "building" in the game, like if you can/have to build everything from scratch or if you're given buildings at the start but you then just upgrade them and manage them along with your samurais. Sorry if its too vague

I AM GOING CRAZY TRYING TO FIND THIS GAME.. I use to play it probably around 2004.. I don't know when it would have been from.. The case and the CD itself was orange.-

When the game loaded you be in like a motel/taxi service.. there would be a brown desk with a bell sitting on it. When you rang the bell a animal (I believe it was either a fox or kangaroo) would appear and ask you what would you like to do. There was station beside the desk with pamphlets you could choose a pamphlet and go do an activity. I know one of the activity were to drive around the city, which had like a car wash and there was a hot air balloon and you had to drive around finding things.. you could see in side the car and you'd flip down the visor for a check list. I know other mini game thing you could play was that you were driving a taxi and popping balloons to gain like practice or something..

I know this is very very vague..

but anyone knows this game? or think they know what I am talking about.. I would be so happy to figure it out.
