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

[Roman78]

Okay, so. First time posting here, so let's start this off with a game that has been bugging me for awhile. It's a classic point-and-click adventure game on the PC from the late 90s-early 2000s. I've only played a single level that was included in the demo, and you're on a plane going on some sort of vacation. You start in some cargo-looking area of the plane with a gorilla in a giant cage. I remember one key specific scene where you crumble up a piece of paper and throw it at the gorilla to provoke it for some reason or another. The last bit I remember is at the end of the demo, you manage to jump out of the plane and go through some dialogue while skydiving, and you have the option of pulling the cord for the parachute or ignoring it while the main character screams "PULL THE DAMN CORD!" before eventually ending up on some random, remote island.


I believe the name of the game has to do with the name of the main character, but I'm not for sure.

Sound like Agapito's Crazy Adventure a.k.a. Island Adventure

Hi everyone. I have been searching this thread and found a similar post to a game I am looking for, but the answer given by another person was "Populous" which is not the game I am looking for. Does anyone know what I am looking for here:

- Online Multiplayer Game
- Was available as a free to play online demo but purchase to include more features.
- Had to be within the last 4-9 years since graphics were pretty decent.
- The free demo came with one race which resembled Indians. Pay version had some sort of beasts and maybe a 3rd race.
- Each round started off with both teams controlling units in 3rd person.
- I believe I remember having to attack (hit) either a gold mine or something to gain money/gold for our team. The money was then used to upgrade the units (armor/attack) and unlock new ones. I believe there was some ranged unit and a tank unit.
- Each time you die, you had to wait a limited amount of time before you can spawn again with a new unit.
- There were defensive structures you can either buy or build.
- It was a WASD game with mouse clicking to attack.

The image that keeps popping into my head is seeing my Indian unit swinging his axe at either structures or other players to gain resources and then being upgraded as the round went on. Its even possible that I had to return to base to drop off these resources. If I died, I had to respawn but could pick a different unit if they were available. Each round was a good 30minutes to an hour and your name was displayed with score (I believe)

Thank you much!

Looking for an older pc rts game where in you start off by making a character(picking age/sex/religion/style/starting skills) Then you pick a place in town to build a house. You can get a job working in shops that produce goods and eventually build your own. At some point your forced to get married and have kids so when you starting char dies the family goes on. One of the cooler features of the game lets you assume a government position(i always piked executioner). Lots of RPG elements.

Hey, I'm trying to remember a game i played during the world cup of Korea/Japan in 2002. I had a demo version of it. It was a 2D game and it had quite nice cartoon/anime-like graphics. It was something like space impact. You could be a red demon(and other characters I can't remember) and you could play multiplayer on the same pc. You were shooting monsters, you could take upgrades and have more powerful bullets and things like that. I remember it was "promoting" or sponsoring/sponsored by the world cup because it said something about Korea/Japan World Cup.

I have another one. A game on NES or SNES, i was playing it around 1995-96. You looked like megaman but i looked and couldn't find it. In one level. there were some fountains you could jump there and could step on the water. As the water was rising and falling, you were too. There was a boss that was throwing some black bombs or tires from his mouth(?) not sure. The stage was moving like you were running along the boss. You were on the left and the boss on the right. You were shooting something at him, megaman style, but not sure exactly. Help please

Another game on ps1 or pc. You were a soldier, killing other soldier. There was a flamethrower with 3 levels of it? Red Green and Blue as the strongest fire?
Can't remember much.

BUMP

any thoughts? it's driving me crazy!!

My first thought on this one was Alien 3 on the SNES - but this wasn't ported to the PSX or the PC. Emulators, perhaps?

Was this a side-scroller Gryzor/Contra/Probotector style thing or a top down/Isometric view Commando/Time Soldiers style affair?

I remember playing this game in arcade.

-the playable classes are knight, archer, (a woman and a wizard.. not sure with these two).
-the camera angle is like whats on "Sonic 3D" but changes sometimes to side. (3rd person view aka Musashi)
-dungeon crawler/platformer type of game.
-i remember fighting skeletons on 1st stage (J-turn like path, and i fight a witch at the end, not sure though)
-after that mini boss^ , i fight a dragon at the castle walls (the dragon will stay on right or left side and breath fire then tries to catch you to the other side)
-the next stage is a snowy mountain, there are 2 paths. (1st path will take you to fight another dragon, the 2nd path is a long way where you will fight a one-eyed green monster like a tree trunk with tentacles and shoots acid upwards and tries to ram you)
-i also remember a lava stage and another dragon boss.
-i remember a knight boss in a room with mirrors (i think this boss is hard, it teleports behind you then attacks you)

please post a picture or link with your answer. thank you xD

If the player select was in a pub then it sounds like Light Bringer to me but I could be wrong. Did the Knight use a freaky chain weapon? If so then it may be an earlier game I have on my Mame setup.

I think in the US Lightbringer went by the name Dungeon Magic or Dungeon Quest.....something like that.

EDIT: Dungeon Magic was the US name. Images here:

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a 90's PC game. It was about a post-apocalyptic world where racing buggies was hugely popular, and some post-world government made it illegal for some reason, but people still race in secret clubs. The graphics were relatively solid, for the time, and the physics was pretty good too. I remember the demo track being a dried up dam.

I cannot for the life of me think of this game's title. Can anyone help?

Could be Powerslide ( http://www.giantbomb.com/powerslide/3030-16728/images/ )

I think it was a PS2 game (might be PS1), not sure if exclusive. You had some kind of electric skateboard (i think) and you could take down helicopters with it and stuff. It had some kind of mission with a black car. Sounds really vague, but this is all i know.

The game I described above is Savage, but there is a new one out now. Savage 2. Excited to try it out!

There was a game for the original playstation I used to play at a friends house a long time ago and it was a game where u would be a robot and it could build things like bridges and u shoot at other robots and try to destroy the other player and their base and each robot had special abilities unique to itself. this is all I can remember because it probably came out between 1995-1997.

I haven't played the game myself, but one "Electric Skateboard" game i know of is Airblade (PS2) ( http://cdn4.spong.com/screen-shot/a/i/airblade52399/_-AirBlade-PS2-_.jpg )

(For PS1 there is Streak Hoverboard Racing, but i have no memories of taking down helicopters in it.)

No, thats not Dungeon Magic, but thanks to the link you gave me. I found it on the results.
Its GATE OF DOOM.

I'm looking for two really old games on the computer.

- One was where you were a green dragon, I think you were a prince or something and you had a magic wand and you had to try and get past problems by making things interact with each other like there was one part with a bunch of bees that had something to do with jam I think.

- The other was where you were a chipmunk or something and you took a hot air balloon to some kind of fair and then you broke it so you have to complete a bunch of tasks to get all the things you need to fix it and go back home.

Sorry my descriptions are really vague and terrible but if anybody knows what these games are I'd really appreciate it if you could let me know.

Hello. I am looking for 3 games. They aren't very old, 2000-2010 maybe.
First one is 2d shooter, I don't think it was sidescrooler.
-the game was in some kind of spaceship, with many colourful switches and forcefield-doors.
-game has badass avatars
-the baddies taked the ship or something
-hero has a jetpack
-it has a very cool guns, like bazookas and laser pistols i think. I couldn't remember a lot of details.

Second is Rpg adventure I think. You start as a noob, killing slimes or something, it has magic stuff. From story i think heros mother or something gets killed. I think it's point and click game, but i can be wrong. There was a lot of gore I think, and I think the name of the game is the same as name of hero.

The third game is some kind of simulation/strategy. There's an island, and some survivors, you command them and they do tasks. The people could get babies, they later can go to school, and i think they can get proffesion(fisher, medic or something). It got some sequels.

Ok, so there was this game i used to play as a kid with a rollerblading dog. It was a PC game and you had to find objects in a series of bizarre levels. And there were music puzzles between each level.
I can't really remember anymore than that. Hopefully someone else apart from me has played this, i'm starting to think i made it up.

Blazing Dragons perhaps?
