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

[Ogoid]

Im going crazy, please help me remember, it was a PC 3rd person shooter game, it was a girl in a black tight suit, she hada gun embedded into her hand (Metroid like) and looked kind of arcady, you could use a parachute that looked funny.

I don't recall the main character being female, so probably a long shot here, but... maybe MDK [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFvlAuX65K8]?

This is just total bullshit, i have been waiting here for weeks and no one has ever read my god damn comment or even thought about answering my fuckning question. all i am looking is for 2 flash games and thats it. the games are described below

The first game is basically a kid that stands behind a big person. The kid is only trying to do something harmful or harmless to the big guy inorder to go next in the line infront of a resturant or a cafeteria. the game gives the player many stuff and weapons to try out on the big guy such as nails, itching powder and such. all of those stuff and weapons usually backfire on the kid and harms him and not the big guy. the outro of the flash game had a cartoonish wooden plank with words on it.

The Second flash game is of basically a boring office day with workers just doing their work. the player can choose actions that can change the office into something fun like a disco night club, a paperplane fight and other funny things that can be turned into.

I understand your frustration, but if people haven't responded it's probably because (like me) they can't help you; the thread is already big enough without people posting just to say "sorry, I got nothing".

Hello guys,
I'm trying to remember the name of the game that I had when I was a child. Something about 99-20's
I think name is Gangsters but I can't find anything related with this title.
Basically game begins when some mob arrive to the town by ship to harbor. He has nothing and he needs to build his way as a mob. All characters are rounded(fat) and small. If you want to fight you need to bubble with body. Also you can buy a new mob suit to have more health and respect.
Also In the first level there are cops walking and if you want to kill them you need to do it in the shadow. This game plays from top view. Like RPG or something like that.

Sorry these are my only memories about this game. Maybe somebody will recognize this game

 

[Juan Pyro]

I think you are actually referring to Gangsters 1 & 2. It sounds quit similar to what you're talking about. I used to play it myself.

The game I cannot name is an old 2D game where this alien had eyes for hands if I'm not mistaken. It wasn't a side scroller.
Anyone know which one it is? Probably from around 15 years ago or even before.

So I remember playing this game in 1996 for the PC (interactive fiction). You wake up and are in your cabin aboard a spaceship. It's a text driven game, early rpg, where you collect items to eventually (I think) escape whatever planet you've crashed into. I remember the game had some back talk if you typed inappropriate things.

It was not Planetfall, despite it sounding like this.

For more description. There is an image (static) on the top screen, and you type your commands below it. So if you looking at like a glass, an apple, and a ruler and type "pick up apple" it will put it in your inventory. Basically it was set in space and you were solving puzzles, etc. It's sad to admit that this game pops into my memory, and I can never remember the name.

I'm searching for an old game that i played in 2001 but I'm 100% sure it was developed in the 90s it was a 2D game the main character was small green looked like some kind of mutant because at the beginning of the first level in front of the character there was a rolling barrel with radioactive sign.The background as i remember was black the place looked like a jungle with a trees and the "green mutant" should jump over barrels ,traps,climbing the trees..When the game was launched before beginning to play before showing any menu there was again a black background and the screen was fulfilled with theese green small "mutants" that is all that I remember about the game.

 

[MaliceWonder]

I briefly remember parts of this game where you were a ninja or samurai dressed in white. I remember a specific scene of having to go up and down this river/waterfall on the sides and collecting these little blue lights that were items for what I believe were upgrades for your sword or something of that nature. That's all I can remember. I'm pretty positive it was ps1 or even prior to that. If you can help me. I'd greatly appreciate it.

Are you talking about Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee?

It probably isn't, but might this be a Space Quest game?

As a kid I remember playing some PC game, probably at school, so it had to have been mid 90's and early 2000's and educational.
What I vaguely remember is what looked like a boutique with the counter on the left side and a female animal character. I think the object was to pick out various articles of clothing and the price of the items had significance. Maybe it was having to pick articles that amounted to or did not surpass x-amount..it was a money game basically.
Other animal characters would come in..I think they chose articles of clothing and you were to add them up? Or find items yourself that matched their funds?
I googled and googled but have found nothing. I tried boolean and simple searches to using specific words and phrases and time spans. I don't remember it being a part of a larger game but it may have been. I looked through the House Series games by Edmark and it would probably be under Millie's Math House but the graphics are too simple and watching PlayThroughs didn't reveal anything familiar (as far as this game goes. I actually was looking for that series too but obviously I found it)

The graphics, as I recall, were more sophisticated than the House Series' graphics with shading and details. I don't recall much about the actual animation.

Any ideas?

Hello!

Here's what I remember:
The two protagonists are a man and a woman. The man is a typical superhero type but is rather stupid, his name ends with man but I don't remember the first part. The women is smart, like scientist smart.

There's a 2D Hot Air Balloon puzzle, increase hot air, reduce hot air. The screen was green, outline of a mountain and both you and the PC had Balloons.
There's a puzzle that involves a beam going into a mine/cave entrance, then the player tilting (2D so moreso angling) mirrors to get the beam to melt ice.

The game has somewhat a cartoony feel to it.
This would've been on Windows 95.


Other games around during this period
Decent
Detective Barbie in The Mystery of the Carnival Caper
Math Blaster

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Something like Gateway (1992) and Gateway II (1993)?

Hello guys,
I can't remember the name of a game I played almost 10 years ago. The game (or a level, I can't remember exactly) started in third person, with a scene where you are underwater, without an arm or a leg (I'm not sure about that though). Then, you emerge and it becomes a first person shooter and you start shooting enemies. That's all I can remember :/

 

[Oldskool]

Something that i also remembered is that it has somehow connection with Germany . is it developed in Germany or something i dont know..

So, I need some help from those of you who might have played Mac games back in the 1980's. Usually my brain remembers everything but I can't seem to remember the name of a game I used to play a lot when I was a kid. Despite Google searches with keywords, I'm coming up empty. This is what I remember about the game:

1. You started out in an office on an island where you could do a number of things including: watering your plant (which would wilt if you didn't take care of it), a computer, a newspaper, a safe (that I could never open).

2. I think the point of the game was to take over 5 businesses on the island. Each business made their own unique item.

3. You were in competition with another corporation. When you took over a business it had a sign above it that would say "Aloha Industries" but if the other corporation took over they had a bigger sign that would erect above the business.

Anyone help me here?

Hey yall , so I've been trying to find this game for years ,it's an old side scrolling pc game. It starts with a guy standing near a car and the first thing you have to do is jump on the car and then a fence that's all I remember really, also that was very hard to do at least for 6 year old me.

Hello everyone. I was searching for a game and stumbled upon this site. I can't for the life of me remember the name of this old Windows PC game. It was a point and click adventure type game. The game came on a disc bundled with hundreds of other games (I think). The main character was a guy who seemingly got locked out of his own apartment. I remember bits like getting a coin or something out of a payphone and a red brick wall with a window and a girl with her back towards the window on the upper floor. I also remember a travel agency in the game and a bum on a park bench or something. I remember there was a bar you could go into but if you ordered an expensive drink you'd lose the game because the guy didn't have any money. I think I remember if you ordered an iced milk the bartenders head would disappear. Sounds crazy but does anyone know? It was in the early 90s I believe. Thanks in advance.

BUMP please

Hi everyone
I played a game about ten years ago on ps1. I remember everything about it except the name xd
It's a third person game, you play as an alien and i think you can play as a human in campaign. You shoot like this blue things from a device on your hand that follow the enemy and you can summon all kinds of monsters. I remember a bat shooting green circles, a fast creature shooting a red ball from it's mouth, and a purple creature that spins and does damage with it's nails.Also you can play PvP on split screen, where one of you is the alien and the other is the human.
Thank you in advance

Hey everyone, first time user here. This is a complete long shot and I don't expect it to be answered. My girlfriend has been trying to figure out a game she played when she was younger but she hardly remembers many details. The only thing I have to go off of is that it was a pixelated floppy disk game she believes was about guessing stuff, and there were pink screens involved. Like I said it's a complete long shot but maybe if you have any suggestions I can bounce it to her and she if it unlocks more of her memory about the game. Thanks a bunch!

That is probably Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion.
