Hello, please help me find this game!
I playd it in around 2008. It was about a black cop, it was pretty realistic, it was like gta but only with cop, you could arrest people, taze them, there were cops that could start fight you but you can show ur officer badge, i think you were a detective or undercover.... You could cuff people, it was 3rd person.
please help me find out what game is this!

Could be NARC too

Maybe true crime new york

A game I am SUPER nostalgic for, but can't recall the name of and it bother me to this day, was an old PC game, early 80s or 90s, about space exploration. It was a RPG with real video synced in, and I'm pretty sure the aliens were muppets of some sort. I can remember seeing video of them spliced in with a stagnant background. The aliens would some times speak in another language, but it would be translated for you. You had to traverse space, make deals, find things for people, and probably stop wars or save planets. I spent HOURS on this game and wish I could remember the name of it. If anyone knows what I'm talking about, please help!

A couple of people have suggested Wing Commander or Star Control. Neither of those look like what I remember.

Glad i found this thread. I have been trying to remember a game I used to play back in the Nineties. It was a space mining game. The basic screen was just a bunch of different planets that you produced ore from. Just a screen filled with different planets. Some were bigger than others. (i.e. more productive I can't remember much else. Anyway, if anyone could jog my memory I would be really appreciative.

I found this post and I am trying to remember this game as well. It's possible I even still have it on a floppy disk somewhere. I would really like to play it again and it's been driving me mad. Please help.
It was mostly text based. There may have been minor pictures using ASCII. There was no visible movement.
You had to manually type in the coordinates you wanted to travel too, so you needed to keep track of where you found each planet or you could never get back to it to get what you had mined. I also feel like there was a limited amount of movements you could make, either fuel limitations, or time limitations.

I've been looking for this game a while, but I can't find. I hope you could help me with that.

I was playing that game 15 years ago, so I'm not sure about everything about it. It was vertical space shooter. Probably it was possible to play two players on one screen. The beginning's background was blue, overall it looked a bit like TwinBee, I think it had bells and clouds, but not entirely sure.
For sure, in the end the ship was landing on red planet, which was about to blown up or something and there was a guy to control in side-scrolling-jumping-platformer way.

Thanks in advance for any answers.

there's a game i used to play i think it's on ps1 or ps2, you had to build weapons or stuff with blocks that you had to go out and collect. I just can't remember what it was called, can anyone help please?

Anyone know this game? There was a game I played in like the mid-90s a couple times at the arcade. It was a Tengen video game. You played as an airplane that shot other planes, flying objects and machines on the ground. You collect power ups and such. Often there would be waves of ships that would fly in in circular patterns, shooting at you. At the end of the first level, there was a boss that consisted of two spider-like crawling machines with four legs. Anyone have any ideas?

I believe it was Tengen because the console had the Tengen logo on the top.

I looked at a list of Tengen video games, and the only airplane shmup is "Afterburner."

No, unfortunately, that is not it.

Hi everybody, need help tracking a game down, its been doing my head in for years . 90s game, it wasnt a point and click adventure game but it was in that style, set in an eastern european factory/power plant. I thought it might be flashback for a while cos it has a similar look. I can remember going to either a bar or a canteen where the workers were and on the TV there was a football (soccer) match being played and you could talk to a man who commented on the game. Im sure one of the teams were Red Star Belgrade. The bar in flashback looks similar but there is no TV with a football match on. From what i can remember it wasnt a straight 2D game like flashback. And also i dont think it was the first game in in the series. Im sure it had a 2 or 3 after the name.

 

[cedde123]

i played a game for about nine years ago, where you started in a room with, i believe a fireplace, and then you could choose party members. up to four i think. you could choose a dragon, an mage half orc etc. i cant really remember how you played but i think you clicked which way you wanted to go, and then it moved. then there could be monsters on your way, and i think you took turns to kill each other. they could drop armor but you could only wear it if you were the specific class the armor was meat to. Hope you can help!!!

Oh i remember it was first person and not super good graphics

 

[Vishonov]

Ok, I've been looking for this game's name for years now.

It was I think from like the mid to late eighties, could be a little older but not more than early nineties (it was at least twenty years ago)

You were able to build an army but you couldn't control it (it was just sent to fight).

There were two sides in the game - one was green I think and the other was grey or something along those lines.


There were helicopters and zeppelins, as well as some kind of flak cannon you could use with the arrow keys.


Oh, and it was like side-scrolling.

The background of the game was pitch black and the soldiers looked like this - http://newyorkcliche.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/throwing-trash-basketball.gif

It could be by the late Psygnosis.

That I believe would be Armor Alley? Such a good game!

You sir are a genius! THANKS

Hi

I'm looking for a old game I played before and found this forum !
I hope you can help, this is what I remember :

You play a "wizard" with a blue robe I think. You can throw yellow or red little balls.
There is a scene where you have to hide in a box on a conveyor belt to go somewhere.
At a moment you have a flying "dinosaur" friend that can take you to other islands.
I also remember a scene where you stand on the back of a turtle in the sea to go to a cave.

I can't remember anything else, or am not sure it is that game.

Thanks for your help !

Hey everyone, hope you can help me out on this one!

I played this game about 10 years ago, on Playstation 2 I believe. The most vivid things I remember from the game is that every main character had some sort of special vambrace, and the main characters vambrace had a sword that extended from the gem on it! The second character you ended up meeting up with was a girl with a wolf. The beginning of the game started out with the protagonist in his village and then some giant monster smashes its head through the village walls, and after the battle, you begin the game.

Sorry if that is a little vague >.< the most I could remember, but it was a pretty fun game!

Legend of legaia on ps1

I remember playing this game years ago... I'm thinking it was around the era of PS2, Xbox 1, but this game was on PC (Possibly consoles too). It's a... 3D Space/future game that... Might've been freeroaming. I think you played as a robot that could hack other robots... You could take vehicles but also hack the NPCs, taking control over them... There were "cop" robots, tiny robots, big slow robots, all that stuff, and they all had abilities to get through missions, I assume... It's not super realistic, I remember the concept being really fun, and I really wanna play it again... Please help?

The only thing that sounds vaguely familiar is Metal Arms, but that's not it...

What is the name of this old interactive game where you play as a ghost?
You wake up dead in this town and there you encounter a library ghost, a flame ghost girl in a church, a water ghost with missing eyes in the school and the ghost of the motorcyclists in the hospital. Please help me find it again because id love to play it. I think it was on a gaming website.

 

[browniealamode86]

So I was looking for a really old game. I don't remember much, but I remember it was like tanks. You joined a server, chose which creature you wanted to use (each had it's own power) and you would find an opponent and battle. The point was to shoot the opponent, or if you shot the landscape, it would break off, just like in tanks. The creatures looked similar to neopets/pokemon. Any ideas?

Can somebody help me? I need to remember the name of a game I played a little more than 10 years ago. I was very young at the time.

You control a medieval army and fight agains the army of evil. The armies have diferent unitis, each one with different characteristics. You didint have to gater resources, the amount of soldiers of each team was set before the battle started. You control soldiers and a wizard, and your enemy controls zombies and ghosts and evil stuff. I remember that it had a pannel like starcraft, where your generals would talk abought the next mission. You could give diferent answers, and ask them diferent questions and if you took too long to say something they wold say something like "I dont have all day long!" and be rude to you. In the tutorial they could say "that is not what I told you to do!". Please help, I just NEED to play that again...

Thanks!

It could also be one of the Myth games.

They were originally made by Bungie too.

Can someone help me figure out what this game is? It's an old game on an old Computer where your playing as a little man and you have to jump on squares but there's some missing, and I think you have to dodge boulders and things flying at you, please let me know if you find out! Thank you

Jumpman?

What is the name of this old interactive game where you play as a ghost?

I played that one until the end, it was on Newgrounds, search their adventure session and you will surely find it, very good story for a flash game.

Can someone please help me with my game? gonna repost what i already said.

I also in need of help, i looking for a PC game, top down (bird's eye view) Squad Commander game, it was very "indie" by today's standards, you controlled a bunch of rather funky/cartoonish soldiers in WW2, there were diferent classes for you to use, each time a new soldier class was introduced, you would get a bootcamp scenario for each one. i distinctevely remember officers and scuba troopers, i think there were vehicles too, but they were the side size as normal troops (to fit the cartoonish look).

The soldiers looked kinda like this:

http://www.mediacircus.net/chickenrun2.jpg

The game is probably made in late 90's/early 2000, i belive it was made by a european developer (dont ask me why i think that).

Gonna also mentioned that it had VERY VERY buggy controls, your soldiers were very unresponsive to your movement orders.

Looking for two games:

1. Some sort of game set in outer space, with pretty graphics. Lots of purple on the box cover, it was a 90s PC game. Box/Cd cover thing shows a guy on smoe sort of space motorcycle/snowmobile looking thing (wearing red). You do something in the game to get crystals, big purple crystals, which you then bring back and I think turn in for a reward. Might've been called something with galaxy or space or discovery or quest or something.

2. Some sort of game where you set up elaborate traps (using objects to connect/map a trap on the screen) to get your opponent, think it was a cat or something, something between animals. Very cartoonish style violence, basically the theme was to set things up to get your foe in various ways. Took a lot of thinking/etc to puzzle out how some of the complex traps worked.
