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

[Prav8]

Hey peeps, I hope you can help me.

I'm looking for a free roaming/ driving pc game. It was a real open world game. It must have been out before 2008. I only had a demo. The other vehicles and buses were super slow and their suspension were loose so they seemed sort of funny. As if they can barely drive. Probably there were no drivers inside. You could even get behind them and tow them. lol There were hot air balloons in the air. You could locate secret areas, like some kind of gate. which would make you teleport. I think there was also nitro boosting. It'd be cool to know its name cause it was part of my childhood.

ok, this is an arcade game from the late 80s or early 90s. I believe you could choose from multiple characters to play as: a lady, a big guy with an ax (viking maybe), maybe some skeleton dude. I am not 100% sure about playing as the skeleton character, but I know there were skeletons in the game. It wasn't laid out as a traditional left to right scroller. It was an adventure game. I can't remember much else about it, except that I spent all my allowance playing it as a kid at the arcade.

Hello
I am looking for help in finding a quite old game (I remember seing it on as a shareware/demo on a CD attached to some PC magazine in 1996/97. The game, as far as I remember, basically was a simulator of a stone-age man. It offered quite interesting possibilities such as open world, crafting weapons from flint (spears and axes), you could also fight with volves, bears and other early humans. You could also interact with the latter. As I'm reading that now, I realise this might be not enough info, but I was just a kid back then. Maybe anyone here remembers
Appreciate any help

Did anyone ever work this out?? Been trying to find this game since my brother revenge destroyed it as kids. The only other thing I remember was collecting periwinkle...

That's Golden Axe. This is probably why remember skeletons being playable:

Oh, never mind.
But the above is a good example of why old games tend to be hard to identify. It's difficult to remember details right, after a decade or two.

You didn't say what kind of game it was (3D or 2D, etc), but it sounds quite similar to UnReal World: http://www.unrealworld.fi/.

Hi, everyone.
I'm searhing a game for NES or Sega megadrive, don't actually remember. It is a platformer, you can play for a different characters as a teenager, gorilla, some futuristic dude, so on. Also, you can pick up a different unique SHINY weapons for your characters, remember, that you can find slingshot for teenager, bunch of bananas for gorilla or a blaster for a futuristic dude. Setting was a bit of serious, and I clearly remember only one level ? it was an easter island with stone idols. We stuck with brother on that level.
Hope, you can help me.
Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Im searching for this old game I played probably 15 to 20 years ago..
It had characters who could turn themselves into marbles and they had to try and stay on an platform that was moving and wiggeling.
You could also try to push the other players from the board and every character had its own special ability.
I tought one character was named wiegely squeegely or something and his ability was that he could stick to the board for a split second.

Hope someone knows what im talking about, been searching a long time already haha

Did you happen to own a Sidewinder controller? If so, the game was probably Manic Marbles (1996), it was included on the CD.

Hello!

In my search for this game im looking for i stumbled upon this thread and you guys might be able to help me. This game was made ~2000, its a sci-fi, 3d PC game where you play as green aliens. The graphics where pretty much big polygons. I remember this game was pegi 13 and that the builders name where engineers and the basic troop was a creature who crawled on two arms with a long tail dragging behind with a spike at the end, they where also completely green. The camera was zoomed out quiet far but i think you could zoom.

I only remember the first parts of the game due to how hard it was for me as a kid. Been looking for this game forever!

To anyone who finds it, thanks alot!

Hello everyone iam not a native speaker but i'll try my best

I played this game between 1995 and 2000 maybe for Win95 or 98, it was a game for children. This Game (I think) didn't have a Protagonist it was only a mouse but iam not sure and you clicked only at things. This Game was build in Scene's so if you clicked on the left side you arrived another scene. I can remember 4 scenes

The first scene which i remember include a red wall and a egg with a face which sits on the wall maybe humpty dumpty and when you click it he falls down and broke a little bit

another one was a bar with a jukebox which plays music? and on the bartable was 2 glass of cola both of them have a straw and if you click the straw they spoke

the other one was a stage with a microphone and a stool, the microphone told jokes or sung something

the last one was a crossroad there was a lot of things but i remember that there was a barbershop because of a red/white spirale and it was daily.

I hope these informations are helpful

Hi, I'm sorry if it was already here, but 700 pages is too much

I'm looking for a game from 80's - 90's. I'm pretty sure I got it with a graphic card (no idea what was it).
It was on PC.

Basically you were controlling robot with two guns in front of you and your purpose was to kill all the little guys (humans). It was a demo, co I have no idea how it ends. All I remember there were some noises like from helicopter or plane and scenery was an evening. You could see everything from a birds view.

Please, it's haunting me for so long

I suspect your game may be Konami Wai Wai World [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RzmN7gYr9Gc] for the NES.

Ok, so my sister and I had a computer game when we were young in late 90's early 2000's, played the game on widows 98 and xp. It was a game about a little purple monster named Rave, and in the game you ran around a scientists mansion and solved word games/puzzles and math games/puzzles and with each game/puzzle completed you received clues. If you made it to the end of the game you would enter the scientists lab and use the clues you found to free or create creatures, possibly, memories are vague. I loved that game and would like to see if I can find it. Does anyone else remember this game. I've been told it is a math blasters game, any ideas?

Hi all,

I'm looking for a game which I played in my yough, which is about 20 years ago. It's about a Rambo kind of guy with lots of muscles. He had to make it's way up to an elevator by shooting all kinds of monsters and rescuing woman. When you finished a level you would see a full screen image of him standing in an elevator going to the next level. You could shoot all kinds of different weapons which you had to find ammo for. In my mind it was a pretty hard game to play, but I was 8 years old back then so I could be wrong haha. The game was rendered in 2d but it had this 3d style, modern back in the day.

So:

- muscular rambo like guy
- rescuing woman
- going with a elevator to the next level
- Killing mutant like monsters.

Hopefully someone knows this game, it's killing me that I can't remember it and I want to play it again.

Thanks guys!
