Right this is annoying me at this point.
I remember seeing this music video playing on Scuzz ages ago but I can't rember the name of the band or song. I know the band was something on the lines of octoblast or chloroblast or something. They are english and the video features them playing around each other in a dark room. That's about it :/

DOS Games:
1st: You start as a little blue space man with a jetpack under a giant spaceship. There's a little gas pump to refuel the jetpack and you have to explore the planet. 2D Side scrolling. That's all I got for this one. Oh, and my dad called the game "Orion", though I haven't found a game like that. (Post a screen and I may recognize it)
2nd: You created a Dinosaur and had to explore the world, and survive being your dinosaur. If you picked a herbivore, you had to manage life, food, and water. If you picked a carnivore, you could eat other dinosaurs to replenish your food.
3rd: Outer Space exploration, you saw the view from your cockpit, and occasionally traded with aliens for better ship parts. I remember one of the aliens being a semi-anthropomorphic bee.
4th: You are a guy, and you have to kill another guy with some weapons, in a nondescript place. Okay, this one is a joke >.>
Music Video:
My job started playing some music during work hours, and for some reason I remember this music video from the late 80's early 90's. It was a pop song, and the video consisted of the 3(?) band members singing while being pushed around in a stroller (Their heads were edited over the babies.)

I've got one nobody's ever solved:
It came on a PC gaming magazine's cover disc here in the UK about the Win95-98 era. Hardware accelerated graphics. It played like Minecraft classic in space, on asteroids made of cubes, with crystals slowly growing over it. Was freeware.

Looked similar, but it was an early DOS/Windows game. The guy in this was too animated. The flying in the game I'm looking for was just his standing sprite, as far as I know. And the Ship you start at looked like an old grill (sphere on a tripod), and it was white. Directly under it was a gas pump.chuketek said:
My dad had the demo to this game on his computer back in the 90's. You were some kid with a gun that fired a lightning bolt that vaporised shadowy/goopy black enemies. The enemies cam in thick and fast and you more often than not had to fire the laser for a while before the room was cleared.

Genius! That's it, no wonder searching gunship & police in google wasn't turing up much!
eBay here I come!
Maybe someone can help me...
There's a song my dad used to listen to in the car all the time. It sounds like Elton John but Im not sure. I vagely remember the lyrics had sonething to do with selling balloons and floating away, and Jesus or something like that. Can someone tell me the name of the song?

It was... a few years back I picked up a little handheld from the same place I got my razors. Weird, right?
Anyways, it was a white clamshell. It had really low resolution, like super-low res dot-matrix graphics. The games were on these little white chips that were stored internally. Each chip had a different color sticker. So there was a little racing game, a tank game, and... two others. Anyways, it came in an unmarked white cardboard box. That's all I can say. I eventually gave it to a cousin who lives in Mexico. The internet cannot turn anything up, so I turn to you.

There was this one 2D castle building game that used a block grid. You had one heart piece that you had to defend and then you could build multiple walls or a single mega castle with turrets to repel enemy waves. I'd love to play it again.
