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

[Doomgriever]

Hello, I need help finding a game I played years ago. I'm positive I played it from an old PC gamer CD, it was probably a demo. More than 10 years ago I think, since I'm positive it was a CD, not a DVD. Some kind of Sci-fi setting, because I remember euqipment like a blowtorch maybe, definitely not a fantasy setting. Top-down view like an rpg or rts, like starcraft. I think graphics were the same, 2D like graphics like starcraft/diablo etc. You controlled more than one character, maybe around 4. I don't remember the goal but I do remember yellow aliens. Yellow like monsters that I think were in some kind of glass containers. I think they looked like dinosaurs or maybe like xenomorphs from the alien movies. I remember after you clicked around they eventually attacked you, maybe I clicked the containers and they were released. It's so hard to describe because I remember so little.

So to vaguely summarize:
1. Genre: RPG (I think) with multiple characters
2. Platform: PC. 1990's maybe early 2000.
3. Visuals: 2D/3D like graphics with top down view(Starcraft/diablo).
4. Setting: Sci-fi, with equipment like a blow torch. (Not sure about this one, could have been a lasergun or something).
5. Enemies: Yellow monsters in glass containers, looked like dinosaurs/xenomorphs.
6. It was a demo on a PC gamer magazine CD.

That's it thanks in advance.

Perhaps one of the many XCOM games? ( http://image.gamespotcdn.net/gamespot/images/screenshots/9/199359/excom_screen006.jpg )

Okay Guys im looking for an Old Playstation 1 game I believe. Actually 2. I believe one was almost like a 3d frogger spin-off. Atleast I remember a frog looking protagonist. You had bosses that you had to fight and were very fun that you like jumped on top of thier heads. The other I remember you looked like an alien thing. You could pick up ammo for a gun that was like attached to your hand. You also fought bosses that were very weird. I rememebr one lookig vaguely like a giant mutated foot with a mouth. Extremelly fun though. Please help.

Hello, i am looking for an old game and i can't remember when i last played it. But it is for PC and i believe around 2003 ? The game is all about making mischief in a house for an old man. Going around and i believe making his life unbearing? You have a certain time to do so and must do it in a certain order. The layout is pretty much exactly like Bob the robber 2. But it isn't a flash game on a browser. Please Help i am dying in finding it O.O Have everything in my mind but can't describe it better.

i've been trying to remember a game i played on ps1 i believe in the late 90's. it starts off with a wizard riding a raft down like an aquaduct. he ends up entering a dungeon which is a puzzle. there are hay stacks in some rooms that he rests on and has dreams. the game could be on snes but i'm pretty sure it is on ps1. if i remember right he fights a dragon at the end of the game.

I'm looking for the name of a PC game from the mid 90's early 2000's. It was about this prince named Torran (maybe spelled differently). His parents were murdered by this evil guy who sends magic smoke and the maid saves him in time. Once he grows up he sets out on a adventure and travels across a whole bunch of realms. At the end of the game he is sentenced to this abyss and while hes floating he sees a door and enters through it. He then befriends a monster that turns out to be his mother and he kills the bad guy.

Some of the tasks i remember him doing are swinging from a vine attached to hid foot to retrieve something on the other side of a bog, jumping on boulders to get across a pit of lava, talking to a family that had a laugh track ( it was some type of TV show) crawling across talking grass, and trying to learn how to use a bow and a saw to make music.

Please help its been driving me bonkers.

I haven't been able to ID any games yet, but I'm still searching through the massive amount of comments! I'll find one. Here's the one that's bugging me.

I had downloaded a game onto my Windows XP/7 computer. The game was titled something clever that embodied the entire game: a vertical scrolling, steady paced, cave descender. The entire thing was in black, greys, and reds, from the walls to the enemies. The spiders and bats and other crazy leapfroggers would get bigger and better. You could kill the monsters by hitting them with a boomerang or rock while falling, and you could gain extra skills if you killed a certain amount. They would give you things like "Now you can break bigger rocks!" (Because you could punch through certain rocks)

I wish I could find it...

There was a turned based game for the psx where you get to choose a character. In one of the stories the character is fighting and is about to die, but then a mysterious character with red armor comes and saved him, Soon after he gets his own armor with powers later on.
Can't quite remember what the name of this game was

I thought about that but then I remembered that it was in realtime, not turn-based. But I'm gonna look into it more anyway, thanks.

Was it an rpg? if so did you have to input buttons during the characters attacks for them to have greater effect?

Does anyone remember the driving game for win95, where you chose the 'team' your cars were on. Like you could be in Zeus team which gave you a zeus car to race, and another team was like bees or something i think.

Hey everyone, I really want to know the name of this old game i used to play on pc. It was basically an mmorpg in that you can level up and gain new gear but also a moba in that you fight for your country. there were 3 or 4 different countries and you fought for terrain on the world map against neighboring countries. It used to be free to play but was discontinued. There were a few classes, archer/assassin, knight, and mage and the games occured when you entered a map against a bordering enemies attack. you could also go into a map that was not under attack in your own kingdoms rule and farm creeps as well. PLEASE help me out I've been dieing trying to figure this out

That is definitely The Immortal. However, it's not on the PS1.

Still trying to find my game:

Searching for an old PC game, presumably one that works on DOS:

- it is a simple strategy game; map layout and gameplay is similar to Shining Force
- dialogue is in Chinese
- all the characters are animals except for one, who is human and wields an axe
- some characters can use skill/magic
- has an anime art style
- I believe the first stage you start out with human, monkey, gorilla, fox, and you recruit a wolf at the end. You have an owl as your guidance.
