Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

[Coldie]

Righto. I have one. FPS game, about 2002 I would guess. Could be earlier.

Mixing tactical and FPS gameplay. 3 teams in Multiplayer, two sides battle it out, whilst the third is a giant monster. Had a fairly sized map, and if my memory serves right if you were playing either of the two sides you could build stuff, in my memory the creatures were a bit froglike.

Can't for the love of me remember what its called, saw Papo & Yo ad on steam, that big thing reminded me of this game, cant say why though.

Sounds like Giants: Citizen Kabuto.

Hey everyone.

I am looking for an old DOS game where you played as a witch.
I can't remember much about it, but it was an adventure game. You needed to go through several locations, collect items, etc. I also remember that there was a constant melancolic music going in the background.
The graphics were much like Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis or Gabriel Knight 1, so there was a scene where you could move the character around and you saw her from a fixed perspective, but not from up above.

I think that the story involved the protagonist losing her mother somehow who was also a witch.

Update: I've found it. It was Plague of the Moon.

Registered just for this. ((Or not, guess I had an account o.0))
Pain in my rear trying to google this game because of what I can remember. It's an old ish (pre-3d I'm sure) arcade style fps. You stand in place and click the edges of the screen to "rotate" your view (it actually just changes the background). But it's a "hunting" game. I use that word loosely as it's more like shooting fish in a barrel. The only animals I remember shooting were prairie dogs in a field (that'd be a massacre after a while, unlim ammo sitting on a table) and live pigeons in a park. I'm pretty sure the pigeons were shot at with a pistol, which always seemed odd to me as a kid. There may have been ducks and deer as well, but I really don't remember them.

Google searches for these either come up with pages and pages of how live pigeon shooting is bad, or Prairie Dog Hunt Pro, which this is not.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can remember this one

Hello there!

I hope anyone can help me find out the name of this old PC games...

The first one was a game where your character must combine words and images. I don't remember exactly how he/she do that... But it's, as far as I can remember, something Mario-like: the character jump in the word and then must walk the level searching for the icon to that word... If he don't combine correctly, let's say combine the word pen with the icon of a cup, then a monster appears and start to follow your character... If you have the pink cream (ice-cream, maybe?) you can press a key to drop it over the monster in order to kill him (the monster)... This is everything I remember from the game right now...
EDIT: Game found by Jarl, it's Word Rescue (http://www.dosgamesarchive.com/download/word-rescue/)

The second one is carmagedon-like, but the name was something like carnagedom... You control a vehicle (car, bus, etc.) armed with some weapons and must destroy the computer controlled vehicle. After each level, you earn some money to upgrade your vehicle and buy better weapons... Haven't managed to find any picture of the game so far... And I am not sure about the game name...


Can anyone help me? =D

Thank you very much for everyone help!

Best regards,

Miguel

P.S.: I am not a native english speaker... Please, forgive me my errors... You'r welcome to help me identify the errors, so I learn how to write better... =]

The hub was kinda bowl shaped, but not a true bowl. Let me explain. When you appear in this hub you're standing on a grassy path and need to walk the curved path "down" to the center of the hub. You can't walk around the "edge" of the "bowl" because it doesn't exist, off to the sides of you is nothing but air. When you walk down the path and hit the center of the "hub" at your immediate left begins the display of the different worlds and they continue around your front and end off to your right. I believe there are 5 different worlds. I remember one of the worlds was an "earth" (as in dirt) world, one was ice (or water), and I think there was even a shadow (or air) one. Each world type was represented in this hub as a castle or gateway of some kind. I also believe when you defeated a world you gained the power of that world, but can't be sure of that.

This sounds a lot like the mission hub from Sacrifice.

-first level was in space
-i kind of remember you had 3 colors of powerups (blue, red, purple)
-it could be played in a window
-i think i played it on windows 98(could be wrong since it was my father´s computer and i dont really recall the SO version)

 

[Yotora]

Hmm, i wonder if you guys could help me ^^
I've been thinking of a game where you drive a car - you could customise it with weapons (I believe) and customise the wheels etc.
You drove around a race track shooting other racers.
It's kind of like a mash-up of rollcage and demolition derby? That's the best way I could describe it!
I probably played it back when settlers 4 came out (2001-ish)
But it's been racking my brain for the past years xD

 

[sietod]

Trying to recall a game from my childhood, so 90's-early 00.

It's a point and click adventure.

I remember this really hard puzzle with mirrors that you had to turn to get the beam to line up correctly.

The 'hero' wore a red suit, I believe, with white spiked hair.

It seems like the 'villain' was a bug of some sort.

Help if you can.

Hello I hope you could help me. Thats an old pc game. Kind of logical game. SImilar to Supaflex, but not the same. You were a boy instead of the round ball in Supaflex. You had to find key to open a door. the were bricks. With bricks you could dry water. There were 4 types of skates: for ice, water, roller blade and for fire. If somebody remembers it would be great thanks

Hello everyone! i'm looking for a old game was on the PlayStation One and can't remember its name but it was an action-rpg game or i think rpg game.... its a game starts with entering an building of an company that builds robots (i think) and you can choose an female cop who dresses red suite or a male cop who dresses blue suite and one of them uses swords and the other uses guns and you have to get to the top building (which i don't remember the object to get there but i think its has to do something with an Master AI controlling the building) and when you clear up few levels on the 3rd floor you find a girl which you found out that she is an Cyborg girl that she tuned into that after she died from an accident.... and that all what i remember so please help me!!! (sorry for the poor english)

 

[DementedSaint]

This one may be a hard one. I am looking for a ps1 game that I'm sure was on one of the old ps1 demo discs but I've searched endlessly through all the ps1 demo discs. It's an overhead action/rpg game where you play a small warrior and you go around killing monsters and collecting essences or something. MediEvil reminded me of this game, and it's somewhat similar as far as mechanics go but the 3D is completely different. I remember specifically killing blobs, but there were a ton of other monsters. Battle is not turn based or anything, it's real time. There is only one playable character and that's all I can remember. I really hope someone knows what I'm talking about, also I checked all the "famous" ones and it fell short on a google search. Thanks a bunch!

Hi everyone,
I'm new here and it's my first post.
I'm sorry about my english, because i'm italian.
I'm searching an old point and click adventure game that i played long time ago.
I can remember that this game was in first person view, was similar a cartoon and the history takes place in an hotel.
In this hotel there was a strange elevator, and you can move for a lot of floor.
There were a pool with an octopus inside, some big mouses that you need to feed with some cheese and a lot of riddles and funny monsters.
In this game there were also some gardens, and you need to bring some objects to open and explore new areas.
I really love that game but i don't know what's his title.
I always played that game on my PC.
Can anyone help me?? Please...

Bye bye

That's probably Chip's Challenge.

I've got three I can't remember. One of them was a game that I saw my friend play about a decade ago, where one of the bosses was a giant dragon, which he fought after talking to an older looking man of Asian descent. It was for the PS2 or Xbox, if memory serves correctly. I remember that he kept failing it, and eventually he was given the option to skip over the battle entirely. A lot of shooting. I thought it was a True Crime game for a long while, but I'm not so sure now. There was another game he played shortly after that one, he said it was a Bruce Lee game, but it didn't look like the other one I saw (which had some really crappy gameplay). He may have been referring to the fact that it was a fighting game that reminded him of Bruce Lee. It looked better than the one I know of, and had a third person perspective.

The next one is a game I never played, but I saw a Youtube video of it. This was around the time L.A. Noire was about to be released, and I was looking for some gameplay vids, but all I ended up finding was a game that clearly wasn't L.A. Noire, but it looked interesting so I watched anyways. It was a detective game, I believe, and one part had the player character beating someone up for information. All I can remember about the game aside from that is that the song "Stranger in Moscow" by Michael Jackson was playing on the radio. Anyone know the names of any of these? Any info is greatly appreciated.

3. Maybe Heavy Rain for PS3?

No, it was more interactive than Heavy Rain. It kind of played like a GTA game, it looked like.

As for the other two, I do believe it was God Hand, so thanks to Shav69. As for the second, any progress on it? It might be that True Crime game, but I haven't seen any gameplay vids where they failed, so I'm not entirely sure on that.

I'm having a hard time remembering the name of a fighting game I used to play when I was little. I think it's a pretty generic 2D fighter and I think it was released sometime around the early 90's. Another thing I remember is that your character had one move where you could rip off the head of your enemy and after the fight ends some kind of green guy/goblin/thing enters the arena and start dragging the body of your enemy outside the arena.

 

[BlueWolf-007]

I need help finding a game. I played it when i was young in 1997 or so. It was on a windows 95 desktop, and involved you piloting a space ship and flying through a space base on pluto. You whent throughout the base gathering powerups and other things. I don't know if all this was right but i know most of it is. Please help. Thanks.

 

[AkiRose13]

Alright, I really need help with this one.

At my daycare, we had an arcade room filled with all kinds of stuff from pool tables to old consoles. One of the more popular games was fun, and I liked it, but I can't remember anything about it but one of the bosses. It was a giant mushroom that changed color from beige to reddish brown as you damaged it, and I think it threw stuff at you, some of which was helpful.. And it was timed. If you didn't kill the boss within a certain amount of time, he ran away. And I may be confusing this boss with another, but I think he exploded when he died? I can't remember. Any ideas?
