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

[dragonh]

Can anyone help me remember this game where you start as some sort of archeologist as a main character, and then you walk a couple of paces, and then you find some people that are praying to some sort of statue, then they start running away from you.

I'll describe the cover of the game too:
Its got a picture of the archeologist's face (the picture covers half of the cover) and he is in a tomb, (I think) you can also see some goblins or something sneaking through the tomb.

EDIT: forgot to mention that this game is an rpg, probably made in 2000 - 2004 and the name starts with D (not sure but I think it does)

There is this game for the PS1 that I can remember very foggily in my head that I played when I was very young..

Like I said, it definitely was for ps1, and the game was adventure-style, and you ran around maps that were very geometrical, as were the characters/enemies, and killed things. Many things were made of triangles!

I'm sorry that I can't do better in the description.. but for those of you that played or know about that game, it shouldn't be too hard to try and guess what it may be!

Thank you SO much for even attempting to help me!

ps. I am searching for it on http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?t=30221 and http://www.psxa2z.com/thumbs/TN01.html. Many of you may find these very useful websites to jog the memory!

OH MY GOD I FOUND IT I AM GOING TO DIE! It's Floating Runner!!!!!!!!!!

It was some game were you inside a building,it was raaining,i had a shotgun and all I can remember is that I was trying to get passed a dining hall full of bad dudes and I couldn't because my double barrel had too less ammo and a slow reload and thats all i can remember

That's pretty vague but it sounds like a bit from Call of Cthulhu.

Mine was on the PS1.
It was a game similar to pokemon. Go out, catch monsters, make em fight each other. Except this had a good story and the monsters didn't suck(yes I went there).
It was all in 3d.
You could fuse the monsters you caught, making anything from pterodactyl turtles, to salamander cats
The story had something to do with your father leaving(i think) the village(which is located in a forest if I remember correctly) and you go out to search for him?
There is also a mysterious masked guy who kicks the crap outta you the first time you met him.
Man, I just can't remember the damn name!

i think your on about monster rancher, and if so then yeah that was a great game, until my disk crashed and i couldnt find another copy

YEEEEESSSS!!!!!
Thank you!
Jade Cacoon! That was it!
I just googled the name and saw the screen shots. It's exactly like I remember.
Thankyouthankyouthankyou!
Now I can go and order it. I miss it so much...

ok i only just saw that, and jade cocoon was also an amazing game, need to find some of these ps1 classics again, used to play them all the time

 

[Lullabye]

i think your on about monster rancher, and if so then yeah that was a great game, until my disk crashed and i couldnt find another copy

actually, I was talking about Jade Cacoon. Far superior to any monster Rancher game(not to say they were bad, just this was better in my opinion)
EDIT: Oh, nvmnd. you already saw....

Okay, I think this was on PS1.
You control a guy (that slightly reminds me of bomberman) from a birds perspective. You have a "base" which looks like a small chessboard. Somewhere around on the map, cubes are dropped from the sky, you can carry these with you back to your base and place them on the board. Once you have enough, you can activate it and get a fancy new weapon, the more cubes you "cash in" the bigger and better the weapons. Anything from grenades to big tanks. So you can spend a few cubes fast to get a small weapon early on, or try to save up for the bigger stuff.
Another enemy also has a base and will try to fight for the same cubes, it could be played by another player or a bot.
Anyone please know the name of the game?

Right, then, I've been going through the entire thread for people who I can answer and haven't been already, so this is going to be quite a long post.

There was an fps on, I believe, the PS1. It was a parody of the genre and had enemies like asses with legs. Anyone know what this is?

PO'ed: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PO%27ed

I'm trying to find an old platform PC game where you're a boy who rides a hoverboard and the evil mobs are robotic teddybears :/ that's all I remember

Cyril Cyberpunk.

In the mid 90's I played a sidescrolling beat-em up with mythological creatures, inspired by greek/roman/european mythos. You weilded a badass sword and the whole shebang. It was also pretty hard.

But there was a twist. Not only is it a sidescroller, but it has a Sim City/Civ section where you help restore the kingdoms and uncover dungeons and help the people clear the land and defend them from monsters (sometimes they kidnap people).

I cannot remember the name, at all, please, halp

Edit: It was for the Super Nintendo.

Actraiser: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actraiser

Does anyone remember an old top down RPG type game. All I can remember of it is that there was a tiny thumbnail of a girl called a Nymph lying on her front nude on grass. The other memory is that there was a crypt on the map that I traveled to to find Undead inside, then killed them.
The game was displayed in a top down view a lot like Heroes of Might and Magic III.

...Don't ask how I know this from that much information.

[UltimatheChosen]

I remember a JRPG on the SNES. I remember a bunch of animal/humanoid hybrid party members.

There were summoning spells, and the main character had a special command called "Guts". I have no idea what it did.

Anybody know this game?

 

[bloodshed113094]

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...

Twisted Metal

 

[bloodshed113094]

It was an old PS1 fighting game were you were like this animorph and it was like an anime style, but it was cool

 

[dragonh]

Evil Islands: Curse of the Lost Soul

 

[KaiRai]

I found the game!! Its called

Evil Islands: Curse of the Lost Soul

YUSS!!!!! I swear it was on PS1 too though! Oh well, it was a chipped game.

I actually love you for finding this game for me.

 

[Ducktard]

There was this game I played, it was on the Pc (Could have been an emulator though, I can't remember) Pixel, sidescrolled, you were this crocodile or aligator, and it had a red shirt (I think) And a caps. That's all I remember, and something about hot dogs... If anyone remembers the name of that game I would appreciate it, cause I really want to try it again

And there was this other game, it was... A kiddie game about a.. Playmo figure (I think) named Laura.. I know it's probably too childish for me now, but I want to see what it was! It was someting about a squirrel too...
