Ok, I need help identifying this game: I played it on the PC in the early-mid 90's. It was a multiplayer car racing game which I believe you could play over a modem with someone else. It's theme was that of Deathrace 2000 (like the old movie), but that was not the name of the game, though I feel like it's close to something like that (and not death rally either). You could customize the weapons on your car, and I think some of the car itself. - I remember while driving you could drop little mines behind you to blow up the other players. The NPCs were also themed like characters from a Deathrace 2000 world. I remember that basically you would need to take out all of the other players to win maybe as you race around the track. Any help would be MUCH appreciated, I've been trying to figure this out for like 2 years now - haha.. =)
Old Games you remember playing but can't remember the name of.

(is the game top down like Death Rally? Or 3rd / 1st person?)
Quarantine 1 or 2? ( http://www.giantbomb.com/quarantine/3030-12283/images/ )
Interstate 76? ( http://www.giantbomb.com/interstate-76/3030-5279/images/ )
Death Drome? ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ss0fIEop1Y )
I believe it was a 1st person driving game (once you started driving), but had graphics (and feel) on par with what you shared here as "Death Drome". Definitely not Interstate 76 (though that was a fun game) as I think this game I played between 1990-1993. Thanks for responding - I need to figure this out! For some reason I really feel like the word "Death" is in the title..Doomgriever said:
Is it one of the MegaRace games then? It was released 1993 ( http://www.giantbomb.com/megarace/3030-18496/images/ )xmrmoox said:
I figured it out myself! It was Extermination, one of the earliest survival horror games for the PS2.auron200004 said:
OK so I'm currently searching for this NES game and still can't find/remember the name of it.
It's with a boy who is shooting balls and the more damage he takes the more power he has (like he would shoot one small ball first, then two balls, one football ball then two football ones) and it also change colors after taking damage. I also remember this game having roller coaster levels. The intro had a girl kidnapped by a giant hand in an amusement park and the player has to rescue her.

Re-posting my long lost pc game, please help! It's driving me insane!
Hope you guys can help me out with a very tricky 90s pc game (windows 95). Its been on my mind for the last several years. I could be wrong in some aspects but I believe its a first person survival/adventure maybe horror game. I remember big sewers, almost like a nuclear plant or something. Lots of grey walls/concrete and you could climb up ladders. There were big monsters/creatures/robots/dunno around that you had to run away from or avoid (I think) as I don't remember guns.
Your a legend if you get this as I've done many searches to no avail frustratingly.
Thanks heaps!

There's a game I used to play on Windows, old pc game..I think it was a CD and not an online game. A Full screen game once cd popped in. It was a single player, first erson view where you were avoid these cops or police men. I remember it was your player moving around a maze and there were two types of cops, a white "elite" looking one and a normal one.
Can Any1 remember it or seen it before?

Alright, I've been looking for years to find some really old games and I've had no luck. However, I know they exist because my sister's found one of them before (then lost the name, doy).
I'll just write whatever I remember-- hopefully it'll be enough!
These are all from really early 2000s, game #1 might be late '90s.
Game #1
It's a PC disk game.
The title has to be something with the word Taxi or Crazy in it, even though it's not a driving game. The scene is that this taxi driver takes you to an apartment complex, and every floor is a mini-game. Either there's like 30 or 100 floors, I don't remember.
I can recall the CD rom cover-- it's an oval-ish brown headed guy as the driver and you're in the passenger seat with a weird font for the title.
A few specific mini-game/levels:
-A grocery store with food you can place in your basket. There's also a cat standing on the produce that you can click and it'll meow, or you drag it over something and it thumps on the ground. I think you can try to feed it a fish but the cashier says no. When you're done there's a checkout, and if you try to "buy" the cat the cashier will specifically say, "You can't buy that cat!" I only remember because I did it so much oops.
-A wrecking ball level with furniture like a couch and a stuffed bunny plushie where you can destroy the items into pieces and rearrange them into something new. When you remade it there was a sucky "shhoooop" sound effect. The background was this weird old playground with a tire.
-A game of Solitaire or something similar and when you won this weird dancing person bounced around your screen.
Those are the only ones I remember. The screen where you chose the level was rows and columns of numbers 1-?? and you click the "floor" level to play.
Game #2
It's an old flash game, I think from original Shockwave.
You are a chihuahua with a sombrero and you platform to eat burritos, tacos, etc.
Game #3
I can barely remember this one, but it's in my head somewhere. I think it's a PC disk game?
There are bears and a log level where you have to do something with fish. I really can't write much else, I have no idea how to describe it but I know how the art looks specifically. It's very pixely and realistically colored.
Thanks. :')

Okay, there was this game I used to play in the early 2000's on the PC, I think the game was older than that though. I remember starting out on a ship on the sea and I think there was another ship and they had my wife or some girl and her face was in sort of like a blury vision in the shape of a circle draining away. I then remember being in a town next to the ocean it kind of looked like an assassins creed city except really dumbed down and kind of tropical. You could swim in the water but there were sharks going around in circles in different areas, I remember that you could avoid them pretty easily and I swam across to another area which then led up to a cliff. Up on the cliff was this weird building with floating objects orbiting around in and outside of the building. It was kind of a myserious game and I think it was an adventure/Puzzle game. There were guards that would try to kill you in the town if you attacked them or anything else and I can kind of remember a light jungle behind the town. I know you had like a cutlass or some sort of sword as a weapon and I think the whole game was based on rescuing your wife from the guys that had kidnapped her at the start on the ship. This has been bothering me for a while now and i really NEED to know what this game was. It was actually a really good game and playing it would be really nostalgic and I look forward to it if anyone can help me. Thank you.
Well, I'm not an expert in this game series since I never played them, but with that description it might be a game from the "Monkey Island" series, so you might want to look into it. Again, I don't know for sure.xProdius said:
Please help, if you know the name of this game!!
It is a Windows 95/98 PC game and the genre was action/adventure.
I remember that the character is a woman that, during the introduction, gets locked inside this abandoned building. When you go to the doors, they are locked, so you must find another way out and the adventure starts. You start off in the dining room area and there is a bowl on the table that you must go up to and look in. There appears to be tomato soup in the bowl and you see a ripple. You must then go upstairs to a bedroom and use a strategy to open one of the drawers to get a piece of paper, which goes into the bowl of tomato soup for a code.
I also remember that in a small room off to the side of the dining room, there is a large beer keg. When you turn to another wall, there is this wall of spikes that makes the character jump. There is a dead person there.
Then, the character navigates to this coded box at a doorway and you must use a strategy to get the numbers to stop and line up, opening the box's door and then there's a deceased human's hand with a ring on the finger that the character must remove.
The character goes down this stairway and about half way down, this gigantic metal ball comes rolling out of no where and the character runs for her life down the stairs and the gigantic ball blocks the entrance you came from. You are now in a room where there are deceased people.
There is this scene in the game where the character walks through this corridor of knights in armour and then one is possessed and tries to knock you down into this huge cylinder hole. If you fail to press the left and right keys, on command, and you get knocked into the hole, you can climb out and repeat the process to knock the knight in.
I also remember that there is this room with a non-functioning water fountain and there is a small room to the side where the character must use strategy in the astrology portion of the game.
If you know the name of this game, please let me know.

So..you had these 5 or 4 clowns and they would make a sound...You had to click them in order.In the back you had a box and by clicking the clowns,you made some sounds that look like some sort of incantation and an angel comes out of the box.
If you click the wrong order of clowns,they would transform by saying : I...I feel a bit..(transformation sound) sad/bad.
And they'd get a Dog Head or a Monster-like head..please help :3!
