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

[Behnam.RK47]

I was remembering my childhood and then this one game got stuck in my head, his icon was a Blue Butterfly. I couldn't play since i got the Windows XP Update (Mistakes were made) i didn't know the Compatible Mode because i was a child...

- I played at around 2002-2003 (Bought a magazine with CD in my country that got this game, not sure if it was PC GAMER or not)

Some of the aspects of the game are:

- You start at a house that gets wrecked by some robot (wich is the boss of the stage)

- The first boss is a Robot Orange (or red) fish

- The second boss is a Robot Yellow Armadillo

- You can recruit soldiers

- It's a platform shooter game that has some Mechs

- You can recruit soldiers, robots and people

- there was WC cabins in game that you could save game by going in them

Please help, my childhood needs you guys!

Hello lads,
So, there's this game I played when I was young, would be amazing if anyone knows/remembers its name;
I remember at the beginning of the game, the character escapes from a restaurent/cafe or whatever building it is (From gangs or something?), then jumps into his motorcycle and starts running away and you take control of it. Then a bunch of other motorcycles start hunting you (There was also some guys with jetpack guys flying over you to shoot you), you shoot them with different weapons you get on your way. There was also helicopters which come from time to time to kill you. As I recall too, you could make stunts and stuff like using a jetpack that makes you fly for few seconds to gain a little advantage over bikes chasing you (A jetpack applied to the bike) to get more score, speaking about score, I forgot to mention that the game had no levels, it was a fun game where you had to survive the longest possible and make the best score possible and it was a 2d game (1995-2003?) I played on "Computer" (Yeah cause PC= Portable Computer :c ) with a "Nice" old rock song that fits with the action. HELP!! Lawl haf a great tiem!

Trying to find the name of a browser based (PC) game from the early 2000s or late 90s...

Can actually remember quite a bit... but the dang name. I know you started out with a small ship, and the objective was to defeat a bad guy (boss pirate/smuggler so to speak, who maybe killed your family or parents...) he was green, had black hair black goatee, he was "humanoid" basically, and had a big space ship with a lot of little minion spaceships.

You were human I think, had to fly between planets buying and selling and trading goods/resources, basically it was a thing were "x" was cheap on planet A and expensive on planet B so you bought it on A and then flew to B and sold it. Along the flight you would randomly get attached by bad guys in ships (see big bad guys minions - their ships looked a little like x-wings...) and shoot them (turn based fighting).

You then visit the "spaceport" and upgrade your ship, by increase cargo space upgrade guns and engines ETC. and you could also buy other ships.

Anyone have ANY CLUE what game this is?

 

[perkl]

Need help putting a name to this game. Commodore 64, side scroller. You were a guy inside a space station. Each screen had two levels (upper and lower), you could run to either direction freely. The space station had a map you could travel. There were something like six targets you had to locate at different parts of the station and shoot them. Gameplay was pretty simple: you could run, jump, duck and shoot. You only had one life but could take some hits before dying. I remember the game being very fluid to play and the music was action-y if repetitive.

 

[sageman]

Ok, I've been struggling to find this game, I hope you can help me.

Around TEN YEARS ago, I installed in my PC a platform game, 2D sidescrolling, probably retro-pixelated, it was very fun to play, quite fast run and jump. I don't remember how I got it, whether I downloaded it or bought the CD.
In each level, you (some walking creature) were supposed to collect candy (and maybe other things too), there were a lot of collectable items, a lot of candy of different kinds, candy bars and many others, so many it was a challenge to get them all, and probably that was the goal of the area (or maybe just colleting some particular ones and back to were you came from.) All this in a forest, in mountains and caves. There were some enemies you had to avoid or maybe get rid of somehow. I can't really recall if it was christmas/halloween themed or not, but the candy bar is a sure thing... probably.

As you can tell, I'm kind of lost here, and Google hasn't been of much help lately. Thanks a lot.

 

[Tawreos]

So this is my first time here. Hello.
SO, what I am desperately looking for (for the past 7 years) is a game that was featured in a demo disc a german one for THE PS1
IT is about a guy wearing red(my memory is murky, its been 12 years) it starts in a room with picture of a pentagram or maybe the five elements, and the guy goes through a door, a huge one I think.
He uses a staff, not a sword, I distinctly remember that.
Next, it was a sprite, so something like alundra maybe.
It is not alundra,

IT IS NOT a side scroller, it is (maybe) an adventure rpg

IF some of the details dont match, REMEMBER: I have only played the demo, I have not SEEN it for the last 12 years, and I was pretty young then.
Basically: red outfit, staff definitely, pentagram or five elements, huge door, sprite character, not side scroller, PS1

Please, if you can help me find it, I would be really grateful.

Sounds like Nightmare Creatures might be a possibility?

No... Its a sprite character like from alundra.
Think something between link to the past and alundra. The guy uses a bo staff.
But thank you anyways.

Everything in your description reminds me of LOOM, yet details are not a 100% match but the staff.

No, it's not Zool... I already checked it thanks to a previous post in this same forum, I should have warned I knew it wasn't Zool considering my description would evidently mislead to it. *sad-laugh apology*
No, the game I'm looking for was just like Zool but less colorful, in much darker/night "natural" outdoor ambientations and stuff. Thanks a lot for the suggestion anyway.

What is the PS one game with fuzzy creatures racing on obstacle like platform super colorful

 

[Saulkar]

Urgh, tried my damnedest to find it before asking for help, alas it has come to this. XD

It is a 3D game from the early 2000s where you built/designed/trained strange looking creatures to run (and I think, maybe long jump, possibly off a cliff(?!)) down a long, strait track and you tried to make them as fast as possible and travel the furthest. Urgh, I remember so little about the game despite watching the game grumps play it not too long ago. I want to find the animated version with audio taken from that episode, rargh!

 

[EclipseFTW]

This game was bugging me for a few years now, searched for it with no luck. Need help or I might go insane
It's around 2004's fps game with horror elements. Starts choosing character from 3-4 characters. Then you go outside through open tunnel,get attacked by something from above on the way.Then you come to something that looks like bridge,looks like evening, and you get attacked by bunch of spiders,quite scary.Also it had some fantasy weapons n explosives. I remember character having long hair,thats about it, never played it longer as my mum didnt allow it Game was around 800mb i think. Not sure if what I described was a demo of a game or the beginning itself. Please help :S

 

[shinryu]

I need help finding a rts pc game that I played as a kid. I remember playing it before/after we got age of empires 2. The game is like war craft and has only 4 factions in it 1. Humans 2. Undead 3. Seamen (merman) and I can't remember the 4th group. The gameplay always starts out with a King who builds everything at first like barracks and other units that can build and if he dies it's game over. Also each race/factions have a unique dragon, humans: golden dragon, merman: water dragon, undead: black dragon, and I obviously don't remember the 4th group cause I didn't play them much. The units/soldiers the more they kill the the cooler they look and the units appearance changes at certain kill count. For example the undead team's archery cavalry (they ride water buffaloes lol) starts to have more of a golden design to their armor and it has like 2-3 different look. You can play campaign with each of the race or duke it out in multiplayer. Lastly what I can remember is that each of the race has different skill set for the king. The one that stands or the most is the human king's overpowering skill to revive the dead of any race except their king. Pretty much if you played the humans it was possible to have all 4 dragons and last note only one dragon can be summon at a time.

Hello
So I'm looking for an old game maybe on windows 98 or XP, I can't remember.
It was like a dungeon game with maybe 100 floors and every 10(?) floors there was a boss. I can remember one of the boss was a giant spider, another was like a queen with a skull head. There were some codes composed of signs or pics (skulls, spiders, worm etc) which could be used to unlock floors. We could play a red or a blue or green wizard or dwarf and they had skills. I remember one of the skills was summoning a blue tornado, another was summoning some fire on the ground. To acces the next floor we had to enter in a black door. There were monsters that could be killed with the skills and we could earn jewels by moving on it. At the end of the game we could see lots of wizards or dwarves escaping the dungeon. The wizards could jump, climb ladders.
Sorry I don't have lots of informations, I'll reply if I can remember more. And also sorry for my bad english, I'm still learning it. Thank you

[dreamcarrier]

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR AN OLD GAME that I played on my computer for A LOOONG TIME!!!!

I remeber my dad buying a new computer in the early 2000's and it had a bunch of games already installed.
It had trials of games, you know the ones that you can only play like 5 times before they ask you to buy it.

The one im looking for is like a 3d game where you're in the sky/air. there are lots of pink clouds around and you could fall off if you missed a block.
The floor is made of blocks and you control this little pink blob looking thing, with the arrow keys. You have to make him jump on the blocks and it turns them into a gold color.
You have to turn all the blocks gold to complete the level. And i think you can make him land on blocks with cherries or cakes to power up and it has different effects on how many blocks you can change at a time.

That is all the game was, just a little pink thing that you controlled to turn all the blocks gold.
I remember a lot of pink, like it was for little girls. And blob had huge eyes! it didn't look anything like Kirby tho if anyone is wondering. and it looked 3dish.

HELP ME!!

 

[predawnchewtoy]

Help if you can.

When I was younger I had a old game. It came on a cd rom. I first played it win xp. The main point of the game was you played a talking frog I think and your nephews and nieces took a time machine and hid in different points in time. The times I remembers where during the maya's, Egypt, marko polo in the arctic, and during thanks giving with pilgrims. The game play was a point and click and you could talk to different people to get clues where to click to find the hiding kids. I tried to find it for hours and couldn't any help would be great thanks.

[Vorstols]

The main chars are: A blond guy. A girl named Alise (I think) Who doesnt trust the blond guy at the start, and has red hair. A beat up old black man (No racism)

One of the game parts: You are captured by a guy with orange hair. He sends his gaurds to get Yeti blood. When he hears screams, he sends the blond guy to get the yeti blood. He finds the gaurds scrathed and cut up. You at some point get a pickaxe to help you climb a wall. After you somehow (Forgot) got the yeti to sleep, you take some of its blood. You come out and give it to the guy with orange hair. The yeti wakes up and grabs him. The blond guy runs away with the girl.

 

[RedFox42]

Hey guys, I found this topic at Google, so I am kind of new here.
I am looking for a friend an old 2D good pixelated game of more than 10 years ago.
He told me the following details of the game thad he played 10 years ago:

- The main character was kind of a red weasel or fox like Sonic with a yellow belly.
- It was a 2D good pixelated! side scrolling PC cd game.
- It had a kind of blue sky background.
- There were colorful levels.
- There were kind of (exploding) barrels where you could jump in and at the right timing jumping out again or something.
- It was around the time of 2000.

He loved this game and would like to find it again. I hope there's someone that knows this game descriptions. Thank you in advance.
