Games you can't remember, but still miss - describe them.

[aktaner]

OK So Im trying to figure out what this game is called, I'm drawing a blank. All I can really remember is when you first start the game you are in bed and your "mom" is waking you up and telling you about going to school. When you leave and go to school you meet a girl there. After you talk to your teacher or something you head over to a castle or something, I think something about a princess... Eventually you go through a cave and fight with some ghosties that's underground. If you can help with this id really appreciate it. Thanks!!

Brain Lord maybe? But it was for snes and way old for now. I may be wrong anyway...

it was on the n64 and it was called quest or magic quest 64 or something like that. JRPG i think. you played a little boy, I remember the battle field formed an octagon around you and the monsters and you could cast magic.

if it has 4 types of magic(earth,wind,fire,and water)with 3 or 4 subsequent levels to them controlled by the c buttons then yea that's quest 64

There were several different Playstation / Playstation 1 games from -WAY- back then, that I can't fully remember what they are, but enjoyed quite a bit. Pretty sure they were on Demo Discs.

Edit: I need to learn how to do a strike through on this website.

There was another game that had you using a Dragon fighting another Dragon. They had a Sword and Shield each. After the fight, you could choose another creature from what looked like a factory esque Pod Room. But then the demo ended.

There's another game that I physically can not remember, but could probably recognise if shown. Lots of games like that, actually. Mainly on the Playstation / 1 line.

Edit: If we can add Arcade Games, I wanna add one. You used a Sword, and had to wave it / slash / (heh) guard through an enormous round sensor inorder to input anything into the game. It was a Japanese stylish game. You were slashing up demons, including a Giant Monster whose foot was either a boss or a miniboss, as well as a Ninja like Cat Demon. The Big Bad of the game was the sword that rivaled yours, forged from the depths of hell, Soul Stealer, and you had the sword Light Bringer. And you're trying to save your girlfriend. Or some female. Weird that I can remember so much about it and yet not know what it's called...

Edit: Searching through the thread has revealed the first game to be Tomba. His hair looked Purple in game, so I thought it was Blue, but the Box Art has him with Pink Hair. XD

I used to play a game that was arcade and for a console (can't remember which one). You had three characters to choose from. A short bearded man with an ax, a woman and a tall muscular guy. It was almost mythical. This was like 20 years ago and I can't remember much more than that. I do remember you could switch between the three for game play.

And one other i can't seem to remember much about , is a game i played about 9-10 years ago , on an arcade console , a big human-sized box with a big screen and levers and buttons - http://www.arcadesinc.com/images/MAME_Arcade_Essential_Cabinet.JPG - ( my english sucks i know ) , the only thing i can remember is that it was a 2D arcade fighting game similar to Street Fighter , and i remember a character named Victor , a big muscular guy with blonde spiked hair if i remember correctly , and i also remember another character as being a vampire...but that's all...

Please help and again , thanks in advance.

Arcade Machine? Street Fighter? Vampires? I'm almost positive, just from that information, you are looking for Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors.

Hi, I have been searching for a long long time a game for playstation 1. Its a platform game and your main character is an alien. That alien can use hypnosis to hypnotizes his enemy aliens. As fas as i can remember his race was captured by an enemy alien race and that race wants to make them somethink like fast food.
That alien looks like a zompie pretty much. When he uses hypnosis some yellow star-like things appear above his head and then they move fast to your target giving you full control of him. If u want you can play your target or make him explode.
That game become later available in nintendo a think. Man it was so long ago, if you can find its name I would be gracefull!!

 

[anatkas]

hohoho i got it, its Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee

Hey guys i'm looking for a ps1 game. At the beggining of the game there is a young boy trying to escape from school with his dog, when he gets away he goes to a field where his dog gets abducted. The young boy then goes to his treehouse which if i remember correctly is full of tech and a spaceship of sorts, he then goes to look for his dog but on arrival to the alien planet his spacecraft crashes inbetween two cliffs. The boy then jumps out of the craft and imediatly his craft falls away, he then goes on to fight strange shadow creatures which appear from the ground, there are also natives to the planet which look like taller versions of Watto from star wars phantom of the menace. If anyone can tell me it's name it would be greatly appreciated because it's driving me crazy that i can't think of it. if it helps the game had two discs to it.

The only one that comes to mind is Heart of Darkness

Video of gameplay if the name isn't ringing any bells

There was another game that has bugged me for like a decade. I just remember playing it on an emulator on my computer back in 2000, so it was probably for super nintendo or something. It was a final fantasy style game where you have a party and walk around fighting battles, except that your party was more customizable. At the beginning you could choose a starting character and depending on who you chose, the story was different. There was a thief and a knight...and other people, those are the only two I remember. Then as the game progressed you encountered other characters and chose whether or not to take them with you (I think there was a max of four in the party). The game's story had something to do with some sacred trees that you had to look for or something, thats all I remember about the plot. Also, your character had a bunch of stats like attack, defense, and luck. Sorry I can't give more detail. Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Sounds like Seikendensetsu 3.

hey guys i got a game ive been trying to think of for a long time i think i recall it being on the dreamcast. it was a game that i can best describe as a super smash bros kind of game, but you fought with your friends and there were different characters and there was one level where a metal thing came down and crusher whoever was stuck in it. i also remember a female character who had an umbrella and another character who had goofy/nerdy glasses (it might be the same character) i appreciate the help its been killing meee

I vaguely remember a game about some kind of magical space circus on the N64, where you went though all these weird worlds, like a sci-fi B movie one, and one on a giant cube that rotated.

Also some game where you where a robot who shot paint also on the N64.

Can't remember there names now though .

Gonna go out on a limb here and say that first one is Glover.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glover_(video_game)

The beginning area (that leads to all the others) has a bunch of circus-tent looking things.

[dptoferrors]

Not sure what it was called, But was a western themed arcade game I played all the time at a local restaurant. You could choose between different characters then would run along kind of like contra and snes type brawlers. I remember in one area of the game you had to like jump up on a bunch of herding cows and run on their backs.

I swear you're talking about Sunset Riders.

It was an old DOS game, and the character reminded me of that martian from Loony Tunes, and it had very catchy music. Something about collecting not exactly blocks, but different kinds of game pieces.

Game got lost on a computer crash or something, but I was too young to know the details, just that we never found the floppy disc with it ever again.
