Okay, so I vaguely remember this game.. So It's an old computer game probably from the library or whatever.
You play as these three white guys (Not the race, literal white) and they have big round noses
I remember their personalities too, one was stupid one was mean and one was nice. They were trying to escape a boulder and I think they got trapped in a cave while running from it and you had to collect things to get them out. One was singing "She'll be coming round' the mountain" on a guitar, that's all I remember.. It's been stuck in my head for so long I wanna find it so bad :'( hopefully I gave a good description of my 8 or 9 year old memory.
Hmm... three white guys with big noses remind me of Jeff Smith's Bone; perhaps Bone: Out from Boneville [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHN9heLNVdo]?

Okay so:
It is a 2003-2007 FPS Windows PC game.
It had graphics that were something like CoD1/CoD2 but were not better than CoD4.
Kinda dark atmosphere,not totally dark but definitely not cartoony/funny/.
Combat was somewhat wave-based,but I am not 100% about that.
It is definitely obscure,its not something popular like CoD/MoH/Rainbow Six series.
I played the demo only,and i remember one unique thing:you could turn your enemies into Santas and Nutcracker soldiers via options or something.
I also remember that one map from the demo,it was pretty small,approx. 2 times smaller than Dust 2 on CS,i know there was a building with an open door and there was some food on the table there and you could eat it to regain a small amount of health.
I guess that the game was multiplayer-oriented but I played it offline so it probably has some kind of campaign.
It had old guns,nothing sci-fi or modern,no full-automatic guns IIRC.
Thanks in advance :*

Ok so there is this game me and my brother remember from when we were very young it was on some sort of early pc possible c64 or amiga, from what we can remember it was 2d from the side and you were some weird old guy that kept sneezing or making some sort of weird noises as you walked around this cave thing or maybe a dungeon and all we remember was walking up and down ramps, my brother seems to think that you had to collect lamps but I don't remember that. I know it's vague as hell but I've done so much searching and can't find it. Hopefully someone knows what the he'll I'm on about.

Holy sh*t man. I didn't think anyone would get that from my description, you are a god among men. Thank you very much, only watched 2 seconds to verify and I got goose bumps.

There was this game on the computer that I can't remember. I remember very little but I can remember only a few things of the game
1. the graphics were like the game recettear (can't think of a great example, but the graphics were anime-ish)

2. at the start of your choosing you can either have a elf, vampire, demon child, or a mecha knight as your companion

3. you move around like pokemon but fight in a 2d fighter with your main character fighting and your companion supporting in team-up skills or directly

4. I played the game around 2008 - 2010 but I think it was out much longer before

Can anyone remember of a game this vague?

I played this game on the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive when I was a kid. It was a platformer where you played as a witch(or something female anyway) and your main power was to pick up these different colored orbs which gave you different "weapons". I remember one level in which are on some sort tech ship. You were sort of on the side of the ship or something.

Hey guys, hoping for a title to a game that i dont know a whole lot about or if it is truley retro or just done in the style. It was a good while ago. And i actually only saw maybe a cut scene or maybe the intro on Youtube. I belive it was a detective or cop game with a more american anime style. I remember the main character wearing a trench coat i think But it did have cut scenes. The scene that i saw had a lot of blue going on as its main color. Not very vibrent in its color scheme. A lot of blue and darks. A very noir feel to it. This game just keeps poping up in my mind every so often and what i did see i was digging and it peaked my interest. And it waw so long ago i dont even think if i was logged into youtube it would even help. Thanks for your time.

I have a really vague PC CD-ROM game that has been driving me nuts for years. I don't remember much except that I played it in the 90s. Probably around 95-98. It had VGA graphics. At the onset you could choose, what I remember to be a companion sort of character. I can't remember all of them, but your choice seemed to affect the outcome of the adventure. There was one that was a "sexy devil girl". Being around 16 at the time, I chose her. The next screen was a green pasture of sorts (typical era graphics, and, this is where it gets ultra-fuzzy, I turned into a bucket. Or she turned me into a bucket. Or at least the bucket was on the screen against the landscape backdrop. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks for reading.

I remember playing this game sometime during 2001, thought I don't know when it released. It was a platform/ side-scrolling game where you had to shoot down some kind of amoeba or jelly using a gun, laser gun I presume. As far as I remember, each level had a building where you climb on to each floor from the ledges and clear out the targets. I hope anyone can help me. Thanks in advance.

Okay, So there is two for me. One when I was in elementry there was this math helping game where you would do multiplication and division tables. And every once and awhile you would get like a cool pattern for your tablet thing. The second one was another computer game where you can play up to two human players and two computer players and you are all different colors on a black background and you are lines trying to make the other players crash into you or your path that you left.

-Okay , The second one was tron . Still have no idea about the first

My first guess would be Alisia Dragoon [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIIRtWPYBtg]; the third stage takes place outside some weird biomechanical ship.

Otherwise, as Genesis platformers with female main characters go... perhaps Valis III [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dR90eu7i1Xg], or El Viento [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4F0THtN_og].

I've been trying to figure out the name of this game for years.

It's a pc game from the early 2000s. I don't remember the storyline exactly. But, it was a kids game that had pixies/fairies as friends for girls and something to do with stones. If any one knows the name of thise game please let me know! Thank you!
