I remember once reading a review (I have no idea WHEN it was) of a jet flight simulator. While I'm usually not into this kind of games THIS one (according to the review) had nonlinear champaign and "kinda" rpg elements in which you had multiple pilots.
Those pilots could also eject over enemy terrain get captured and tortured (and that gave you proper icon in the main base).

Sadly it's a game I never played...
I can't find the exact magazine in which I read the review, but this game has been kinda stalking me for like 2 years. I have NO IDEA what was it's name or was it's flying part even good. But at the time I was reading the article it fired me up so much that I instantly wanted to buy it... only I was young and didn't have the money.

So yeah long story short. A 8/10 game that I would probably very like and yet never played it... ehhh...
Uhhh, now im pulling this one out of my google behind, but Chuck Yeager's Air Combat?
I checked and sadly it's not it. But nice try though.
I think the game I mentioned was closer to 2000-2004 (maybe bit older or younger). The sad thing is that normally I would just looks through EACH single copy of that magazine I have but I lost my older part of the collection somewhere (I think my mom threw it out back when I lived with my parents).
I guess I'll never have the chance to play that game :(.

pc game, 2003~, set in space, cartoon/anime art style, asteroids style combat, rpg elements with your ship, maybe some resource gathering, short name with one/two words. I can't remember anything else about it.

EDIT: I remembered something else, it had pretty sharp graphics (2D) and had boss battles.

Some game that was for the N64 or the Gamecube.
You played a massive orange giant and you had to make the people living at the base of your hill happy, I remember there were things you could do to piss them off. One such way sticks out in my mind, where you slide down the hill directly through the village destroying pleanty of things in the process.

Nothing comes to mind...
I see it like this:
If a game was worth remembering then i do, and if it wasn't then i erase it from my memory.
Simple as that

EDIT: Here's a link to a YT vid of the level http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-J6KXRqIPg

So yeah we all have that game that we loved to play but we forgot it's name. I had a game that was driving cars with guns on them to kill other cars with guns on them. It came on 2 CDs one blue and one orange, it was released in 1990-2003. It was awesome but i can't remember it's name. So post that game you forgot and try to figure out the names of other people's game to help them out. ;)
i think you mean megarace 2

A Sega Genesis platformer where you played as a red dot. And a Sega CD game where you played as a basketball trying to launch yourself off your opponent into your hoop.
Adventure?

i remember playing a game as a kid(1991-1996), it was a 3d shooter, all i can really remember was that the character you played as had an asian accent, and when you used certain things, he'd say, "thats why they call me mr fix it"
Shadow Warrior?

I'll throw an easy one out there.

Can anyone tell me absolutely what ALL of the Commander Keen games were, and where I may find them?

I KNOW that the Steam complete pack doesn't have them all.
There's a site called "Best Old Games" just google it, it should have all 6. (And 7/3.5, but I disregard that as a Keen game, because it sucked harder balls than Mirror's Edge).

I remember this game on the original Play Station, where you were underground, you were an ant, and there were these big bugs, who were bullying you. I don't remember the exact details, but it was something along those lines. Any ideas?
Unfortunately, I can't I.D. the one you are looking for, unless there is the slim chance you are thinking of the "Bug's Life" game. :/

However, I give you this...


...for helping me. I always did have a place on my hard-drive for #7, though it wasn't great.

It is A Bug's Life, and I actually saw someone post about it a while ago in my n64/WoW topic, and I didn't think about it being A Bug's Life at all. Also, no problem, it's my pleasure to help out a fellow Keen-lover.

I know that game! I still have it.
It's either Jet Rider or Jet Rider 2. It was so bad... the controls were epically awful, I lost all the time.
