Hello - I'm also searching for one particular game, since years now:

It came on a huge Demo CD, that also had Larry 7, Albion, MDK, Descent and Extreme Assault demo's on it, so it's probably around that time (win 95 / 98):

It's a 2d (space?) shooter, where you controll a ship and can fly around with it, completing different targets. But the first levels (I dont know the rest, had only a demo version after all) were located in a jungle, and in a desert, if I recall correctly. I dont know if it's going into space later.

It was rather good looking for the time, and the level design was built in different layers (so that the ship was covered by tree tops, etc - and secrets/updates were hidden that way. I always tought it was called 'firefight' or something similar, but searches for that term always turned up empty.

I would really love to find / play that one again!

Hello
I just remembered some old game. It was 2D and you was somekind miner.You have pickaxe and shovel and maybe something else also. you was moving around and try kill all monsters (like Professor Fizzwizzle style, just better graphic). you needed to mine a block with pickaxe (it was a trap for monster) and wait he come your way and stuck in that missing block you mined, then you come to him and bury that hole with monster in it, thats the way killing them. And i also remember there was really annoying music in the background. I hope anyone know it.it was like 5-7 years ago or more.

So, there was this one game I used to play on pc. It also was an Xbox game ( I think). Anyway. You were able to build your own robot/ mech using money you won in battles. There were three chassis for the mechs: a hover one, a walker, and a tracked base. The point of the game was to improve your mech while going through a huge story. Some of the things I remember are there was a mission where you had to blow up a wall, and you had to place a cockpit and engine on your mech. It was weight based, so as long as you had the part and enough load capacity you could put it on your mech. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This was around 2003-2007. Sorry for the huge span, but I got it as a gift and don't know when it came out.
Sounds like one of the Front Mission games. Front Mission: Online came out 2005 ( http://squarefaction.ru/files/game/90/gallery/99cf518a813f44a07467d13309dc91bc.jpg )

anyone remember an older FPS, may have been on ps2, that had a noticeable constant red color to everything with intentional scan lines. kind of like what the terminator would see.
Killer 7? ( http://dofuss.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/k7-fps.jpg )

Heya, 9 or 10 years ago I played this game, where one controlled a marble and had to go through all these puzzles. The music and level backgrounds were always really nice, and extra levels appeared for Easter and Xmas and such, with music, level backgrounds, and sometimes extra puzzle components, all to match whatever holiday the set of levels was for.

I can't remember it much, (I was diddy at the time! xD) but sometimes I had to move the marble onto these pressure plates to toggle these yellow and black striped door things to get to the exit. I don't think it was possible to die, but some levels I found really hard, and I was never able to finish the game. It was a 2D game, just looking flat down onto the puzzle, with lots of bright colours. I think it had moveable blocks too, and I know each level was a tricky puzzle. It was REALLY addictive xD.

I don't remember much more than that, but if anyone knows what the game is called I'd be SO happy, cause I've been wanting to regain it for a few years now, and I just started searching but I've tried most search terms I can think of now and still haven't found it! :/
Please could someone help me find this game?

It was for computer and my parents said they found it for free download on the internet, and to say again it was completely 2D, and one looked straight down onto a completely flat puzzle.

I'll try to make a picture of what I remember of one of the puzzles and of the menu (I'll wait till I remember more for the menu though), but I'll describe them for now:

This one puzzle - I think it was puzzle 23? Had a blue background that I think was starry, and on one side there was a rainbow coloured waterfall with very basic animation. There were two pressure-plates toggling four yellow-and-black striped moving walls (They looked like doors to me, cause they moved on a hinge at one end). I think the static walls were completely yellow but I'm not 100% sure. I think the goal was a kind of hole or something that one had to get through the doors to get to. It had music that reminded me of being by a waterfall.

The menu had a blueish background, possibly starry again. I think it had the marble in it somewhere, but it might not had done. I think the menu buttons were a different shade of blue, with either white or gold lettering on them. I don't remember more than that atm though.
No buttons for the menu, just yellow text. Still don't remember anything else though. Please Please Please help me find this game, I made an account here just to find it! Just so people don't have to look back in the topic to know, it's not Marble blast or Marble Madness. :)

May be a stretch, but, was it Oxyd or Sansarom? :)

There was an old fighting game, 2D, I can only remember 2 things:

It had an rodeo arena with a row of bulls running around in the background where the fight takes place.
And one of the characters was a guy with skinny blue jeans, a black leather jacket, and long black hair, I think he wore a cap too. Oh and another character was a bald old man with a fu manchu moustache, the sterotypical sensei. I don't remember on what platform it was on, sorry.

Anticipated thank you.

I'm sorry, i can't seem to find the original post, but someone had described a space shooter game where your "ship" was basically an asterisk. Been dusting off some games *cough, cough* :) and i found a game called Survivor.

Hello everyone! Can anyone help me with this game?
You can choose either between a wizard in blue robes with a staff and a viking with a 2 handed axe. Both of them have beards and are dwarf looking, hower I don't think they are dwarves. It's a platform game and you see your character from the side something like the old sonic games. Your enemies in one of the levels are skeletons I can remember. I remember playing the game somewhere between 1998 and 2005. Not sure when it came out though! I think the game could be played by two players - one plays with the wizard, and the other one - with the warrior.
If anyone knows anything, please help!
Was it like the Dark Alliance games? Or maybe older, like Darkstone?
No it was not Dark Alliance or Darkstone :/ The game I am looking for is a 2D Sidescroller game. Thanks though.
King Of Dragons? ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDGRUrtgKb4&t=23s )

(if not, was it 2D pixel graphics, or 3D? (Also, PC or Console?))
It's not King of Dragons either :/ It was a 2D game with pixel grafics, which I played on a PC.
Heroes of Might and Magic? Exile: Wicked Phenomenon perhaps? I'm still looking... :)
It's not that either :/ It was a 2D Sidescroller game

I think it I found it on a demo disc, but it was for the PC. Its based in the future, you're a women delivering packages or items and travel the planet visiting different cities, landscapes. There was a bar you could enter, you had a space ship and you had to find parts. Seems kind spacy. It is a old game, It was around the same time of G-Nome and Star Wars: Dark Forces came out. There was allot of dialogue between characters, a good story. I don't remember much.

Hey there i'm looking for a game i use to play around 10-12 years ago, was an rts game on the pc with the game play involving underground and the sky as well being on land. You build a base, units and harvest resources. I remember you had to harvest something like lava to build parts together for a big robot you would make to help fight in the missions. I cant remember the name of it for the life of me any help would be appreciated.
