Your description is very vague, but it could be Diddy Kong Racing for the N64. It has these 3 types of vehicles.

Spy Hunter comes to mind but I'm not entirely sure that's correct.

I have no idea about the OP's.

Mine is some game, I swear i know the name. It was some game, i only remember using the multiplayer, it wa son the old PS1. You took control over some sort of car/war machine and tried to kill the other guy... Thererwas something like a leveling system like Defcon 1/2/3/4 or something like that...
I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Twisted Metal.

There was always this fighting game I could never remember... It was on the N64, it's graphics were ok but the game played great. It had a metal soundtrack and I remember something about "Ultra Combos".

Yeah i know it's very vague... But it was a long time ago. It's not Diddy kong racing tho. It's older and top down view... And you don't get to choose car boat or plane. It just happens..... Sorry it's so vague. I was very young.

OK, this is going to be a really hard one, and it has been bugging me for basically my entire adult life. I have googled furiously for hours and hours on end to no avail, so here goes....

The time frame is somewhere around 1990-1993. I remember having this big bulky joystick of a controller that had 4 large colored buttons on it and a joystick, it looked kinda like a big fat remote with big buttons and the joystick at the top.

The games I remember are two. One is a Disney game in which I remember catching falling Acorns with Chip and Dale, maybe with tea cups. I also remember solving some kind of puzzle involving a car, maybe goofy/mickey's car broke down and when you solve this car puzzle you fix it. And I do mean a literal "puzzle" like with sliding pieces or whatever. Maybe there were also ghosts involved.

The other game I had for this "system" was a Sesame Street game in which I remember Oscar the Grouch and like catching things, presumably trash in trash cans. Both of these games seemed like compilation games which a handful of "mini" games within.

Now I know this is very vague, but I remember the chip and dale part and the controller most clearly out of everything. The system was very weird, I don't think it was an atari or an NES but something else. The worlds "Disney Interactive" kind of stand out.

uhhh, ring any bells?? I'm very desperate hence the hail mary post here.

This was a PS1 game I can't remember the name. In this game I can remember a big floating alien head in the middle of the stage and you were in a ship I believe, you had to pick up lasers and place them in a certain spot to kill the floating head that is all I remember, sorry if this isn't much to help with.

Hi everyone. I have a problem that has been bugging me for , i think years now...
I'm trying to remember the name of a game i played at least 10 years ago...
I can only give you a small description of what i remember , so here it is :

The game was a 2D arcade shooter that was taking place on another world , strange planet filled with zombies or something , you could choose between 2 characters , one was a red guy , i think a cyborg or something wich had 2 guns and his melee attack was something like a sword if i remember correctly , and the other was a blue human with no helmet who had only one big gun , and in the first level i remember there were trees designed with skulls or something at the top and in front of them there were many waterfalls that led to subterranean paths...oh and you could shoot up,down,left,right and diagonally...

Please help and thank you in advance.

I remember enjoying this game when I played it, I think it was called Project No. 3 or something and i'm pretty sure Susan Adrent has the protagonist as her avatar. Don't remember much about it aside from that I liked the gameplay and bosses. Except for the final one.

Yea, I can barely remember this game but it was like a god game. an old pc game. but it was 3d though. you had like all kind of diffrent coloured groups of midgets that you gotta control, one does building, one does resourcing etc,i cant remember but there were hundreds of them as you could like grab them and put them somewhere else. i can remember islands on diffrent worlds you gotta capture. when you start the game it has a really slow game play, but when your diffrent colour groups of midgets grow so does the speed of the game. it was fun game,played when i was like 8 years old(now 17)
And sorry for my bad language, i am dutch ;)
Sounds like it might be Baldies

It was investigation game for PC as far as I remember. It's a older game.. I remember that you begin as a female in some little town, And you are waiting for some guy in a park... Then you have to investigate the murder in one of the apartment you can go trough that little town (Jump the walls and stuff). I remember that i found a blonde wig. And trough the game you are playing with some guy too. It swiches characters trough the story. I remember that main chick was black haired. (Game is 3D)
Sounds like Broken Sword or the sequel.

I remember a game were you run around with a massive sword and i also recall a couple of pistols as well. And after a couple of level sequels you would have to face a boss. The things you were slaying included; Random variations of monsters and men in strange outfits.

Hi folks,

I'm not sure if this really fits into the theme of the thread, but here is one for you.

It was a side-scrolling space shooter a la Galaga or Einhander, advancing from left to right. On the internet, flash-based, from roughly a few years ago. There were decent graphics, although they did look a little bit too generic. You caught powerups from defeated ships in the typical manner. Short, easy, fun.

The two major defining characteristics were that the powerups you could get were color-themed. You could continue to upgrade red, which was spread weapons, blue which was kind of like glowy electric orbs/shielding, and green was laser-y. If you got a different color powerup you had to start over with the basic weapon in that color. There was also a vague kind of dragon theme in the title art and ship architecture.

Any takers?
