It's not a Crash Bandicoot game, is it? (Can't recall offhand if that franchise had any 2D games...)RedFox42 said:

Hey all
I remember this game from at least 15 years ago. It was on the PC and involved a talking tiger, Monkey pig etc. who were explorers and travelled to various countries such as Peru, Norway, China where you heard a song from that country about its culture, played games. such as in China you dressed up a dragon and lunched fireworks from it. wrecking my head that I can't remember it, loved it when i was a kid.

Reading back through the oooold posts - came across this.TriggerGO said:
Is it possible you're thinking of Phantasy Star Universe's story mode, mate? The main character, Ethan, is riding his hoverboard to meet his sister, Lumia (he's just got off work and is late) so they can watch a speech by the Divine Maiden. He's lightly hit by a hovercar; a girl gets out of this car and heals his wound and he continues on, finding out when he meets with his sister that the girl who healed him, Mirei, is in fact the Maiden herself. It's watching the speech that the colony is attacked by beings called SEED. While trying to run, Lumia is trapped behind some rubble and Ethan has to find a way to free her, which is where the gameplay actually starts if I remember correctly.
I adored that game. It also had an online mode, but the PC servers have long since shut down.

'nother old post, this, and this game IS fairly obscure.Tazzm Fyrflaym said:
This is Fresco Wizard! GameHouse released it through RealArcade and it had very high requirements for graphics usage at the time, so not too many computers could play it without lag. I loved this one - used to play it for hours on end. It's still available, costs $10.
Ok, so this one's been on my mind for a while. Never played it so no idea what console but I remember watching a walkthrough on youtube. It was old, probably around early 2000's maybe in 1990's... maybe. Anyway it was a zombie FPS with some horror aspects, but I don't think it was too based on horror, and there were multiple stories that I'm pretty sure intertwined. The only one I can really remember is the one where you're a soldier and you either landed or crashed a helicopter near a highschool and you had to make your way through or something similar and you had a M4 and some pistol as your weapons. All the cutscenes were in a comic book panel-to-panel style. Fairly certain another story had a couple that had to escape a town or maybe you had to get to the girl's house to rescue her? not certain on they're objective but there was a couple and you played as the guy im pretty sure but I could be wrong.
Sorry for super vague description but I hope you guys can help.

Definitely not Resident Evil series. I'm pretty sure it was a stand alone title
Most dungeon crawlers didn't have an overworld...zervo said:I've spent more than enough time searching now.. this is my last resort. (cut my life into pieces)
Alright, this was a game during the 90's on pc (windows 95?) The game/application looked basic.. I remember it having a party setup like the eye of the beholder/lands of lore, with similar combat but much simpler grahpics. It had an overworld with top down view, and once you entered a sewer maybe? it became first person dungeon crawling. i can't remember much else.. any help would be appreciated. I need to know i'm not crazy.
And it was fantasy, not scifi? Does Abandoned Places 2 sound familiar?
Hello . New here.
Got this on my mind for some time. Played this game in 2003/2004. I suspect the game is older as is made part of a "multigame cd" (which i can't remember the name) with some titles like "hundry snake 2". This one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0eAkQzmiU4
As the game itself, I remind that it was a level based shoot'em up. We would start with 3 space ships that could fire as we pressed space. They would dispose on a circle, on the screen, and could be rotated with arrow keys. Asteroids and other space artifacts like meteors would spawn in middle and would expand as the level went by. I'm almost sure it made reference to NASA and presented some (fake i think) astronauts in the main menu, but can be my mind playing tricks. The space ships were all unique. One was reddish.
Draw a quick sketch from what I have in memory. : http://imgur.com/IpcCV82

- 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 a racing game either on ps2 or ps1 that i used to play, it was a car racing game, between races you could drive thru the city and go into houses and talk to the cars that lived there. you could do side missions and well like mini games and stuff. one mini mission i remember was to go into a haunted house and avoid the "ghost cars" ive wanted to find this game again for a long time, someone please help!
Not exactly a "find the name" - but a "place the scene to the name".
I rememember either watching my sister find this (less likely), or coming across it myself (more likely). It's, iirc, a primarily black and yellow area that contains a bunch of fleshy pod-type things containing unhatched, non-friendly aliens. I seem to remember the portion of the area that wasn't fleshy was primarily black and yellow, somewhat metallic. The pods may have been partially metallic themselves. They were at the far left of the area which you could go to, just basically a wall of alien "eggs" I suppose you'd call them. I am faaaaairly sure this was an area in The Daedalus Encounter as I seem to remember Ari mentioning something about needing to get out of there before the aliens hatch out (maybe? Don't recall exactly what she said, but it WAS her speaking.) They never hatch out as long as you're there, as far as I remember. (This part I am not sure of and it's highly likely I just imagined it - you can come back after they hatch out and see the ends of the pods "exploded" open, the hatchlings no longer there.)
I do not, however, remember seeing the "inside-of-a-machine" HUD style the game is known for, but I was never much for noticing that kind of thing as a wee bub.
Am I confusing this with another game from round the same time period, or was it in fact The Daedalus Encounter?
