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

[frellan]

There was a 2D point and click adventure game about dinosaurs that I use to play back in the 90's. You played as a photographer/reporter and had to go around a dinosaur themed park to take photos. There is a shop that you go into at the park which you can buy a fossil, torchlight, pick and grappling hook. Later in the game you use the grappling hook to get up a cliff and find a cave which contains a time machine that takes you back in time. The game had different ways you could die, such as dinosaur bones at the park which you click on and they end up falling on you and crushing you when you touch them. The name of the main character may be Peabody.

Pls help me!

Hi, I don't really know if it's been already asked or not but I guess like 90% of the people coming here and seeing 385 pages... I got lazy.
I used to play a game like 6years ago but I don't know at all if it was already old or not, here are the specs:
1: PC game that you had to install (Really light about 20-30Mo)
2: Isometric View (From above)
3: only 1map in the whole game.
4: You're some kind of war ship fighting an invasion of... I'd say aliens
5: You move with zqsd keys and aim + shoot with mouse.
6: Really basic graphics
7: The more you kill enemies the greater weapons you get ( first you have a gun then an automatic then shootgun then flamethrower then lazer...
8: I remember the floor of the map started green and it was getting all red with the blood of the enemies you were killing so in the end since there was only 1map it was like all bloody.
Been looking for this for long... Thanks in advance for the help ^^

That could be Crimsonland.

Yessssss ! Thank you ! xD
I'll playyy xD

I used to play this game years back in which you were a round little monster and you had to go and save other round monsters.There were many different levels in that. I cant describe the game properly cuz the memory of it is too vague in my mind but i used to love playing it! So if anyone can help me out i will be very very very very very grateful! PLEASE!(this game was for PC's)The monster somewhat looked like this i guess (http://www.dreamstime.com/royalty-free-stock-photo-3d-funny-fluffy-creature-image27654045)


And there was this 1 more online game which was kind of like a tower defense but instead you just had a barricade infront of a castle with a princess or someone in it and you had to protect the castle from monster/bad people(dont remember ) and you could buy different kinds of guns and could hire other gunner by the gold you get from killing the bad guys. If anyone can help me find out the names of these to game or even one of them i would be damn grateful of you till i die :'), Been hunting for these game for ages and i finally found a forum

No this wasnt it...it had good graphics and you could move the little guy anywhere you wanted. As far as i remember after you save other furry monster they follow you and you have to take them to the safe zone and some other type of monsters would try to stop you from saving them i guess
But anyways thanks for trying to find out the game and helping

Just made this account 'cause I'm going crazy trying to find out the name of this game. Please, help me!
It's a platform game, almost sure it's 2D. The character (can't remember if it's a person, animal, alien or whatever) had to walk through the scenario collecting these little monsters, aliens, creatures or whatever they were. Then, as long as you were collecting them, they walk behind you in line, until you take them to this determined space, and let them there and go for the others. The stage ended when you collected all the creatures of it. This makes any sense? Hahaha.
Come on, someone's gotta played this!!

Oh, and sorry for the terrible english, I'm brazilian.

Oddworld: Abe's Oddyssey?

Nooo. It's a childish game, colorful and with cute characters and places. Anyone??

I remember enjoying this game quite a bit back when I was around 6 or 7, it's either an turn based or real time strategy game from around the early/mid 2000s. I'm learning toward saying it was turn based, because I think I remember it having grid-based movement
It was a free game on GameTap, back when it had tons of free games.

I'd like to revisit it now that I actually have a mind for strategy, but I can't rediscover the game, and all I remember of it is your troops are in squad of around 1-9 units.

Particularly I remember one of my units being able to summon Treants into the front line of the squad.
If you've ever played Yu-Gi-Oh Falsebound Kingdom the squads work similar to that, with each squad appearing on the map as a single unit, then the rest appear out of nowhere for the battles.

Off that, anyone have ideas as to what this game is?

Bump

I used to play a motocross videogame back in 1998-2000 where you could hit fellow bikers with your legs and bare hands, they could slip on banana peels and fall on wet/full of water holes and then they would get up and continue the race. I remember multiple stages of the game: Egypt and France. It had a red biker on the cover and the menu had a steel-metalish look. It's not Motocross Madness or MTX or any of those games. I can't remember the name but this was such a cool game. Hope you guys can find me the name

Nope, not that one. You're controlling the motorbiker in a 3rd person view in my game.

( That was a 3rd person view aswell, the player is the bike that is visible. ( The "control panel" is just a HUD, not a first person view ))

Did you play this on PC?

Hi I'm going crazy looking for this game I remember very strongly yet can't find any evidence that it exists. I think it came out in the early 2000s but I'm not entirely sure, I think you could play it over IP so it might be older than 2000. It was a freeware game (I think) which makes it hard to find.

It's this 2d side scrolling beat em up game for the PC that borrows a lot from double dragon (similar looking sprite graphics, multiplayer support, floor covered with usable knives an bottles etc) what made it unique was the wide array of playable characters. Not just one character that kicks and one who punches (it had that too) but also a guy with sword and armor, an archer and several mages. Probably one of the most memorable parts was that if one character played the ice mage and another played the fire mage they could be combined (I think you just ran into each other at full speed) into an overpowered double mage. You could also cheat to play as any of the enemies, or the last boss for that matter which made the whole thing a joke (it was quite hard if you didn't cheat tho).

I hope I've given enough to go on for someone to recognize what I'm talking about despite the fact that it was a freeware game. Freeware or not I remember it being popular so I don't get why it's so hard to find. Anyway thanks for the help.

The driver is visible but no the handles and else. And yes, I played this on the PC.

I am looking for an Old pc game. Maybe not too old. It came out round 2005 or so. Maybe later.

It is a game where you play as a turret. Was called earth defense or something. In this game you play a turret and you shoot objects but the objects fall according to techno ore trance music . I really can not remember this game. My mother got it for me a long time ago and unfortunatley she is passed but the game was on my old computer. Now i just can not for the life of me remember what it was. Global defense force or after earth force or global something . can any one please help ?

In this game you can choose certain stages. And each stage has that same music. It has the colorfull objects. i think you start with a normal chain gun. you can also get combo shots , theres a tesla gun and a rocket gun too. It sits right in the middle and you look at a room. Each of the stages has its own music. When you choose a stage it looks like your being transported to a room. And every now an then there is a boss that attacks or you have to look for him in these rooms.

I've got one more I can't recall. I haven't seen this thing since I was very young, but it was an arcade game. I want to say Sega, but don't quote me there. This was one of those big cabinets you climbed into to fly a space fighter through a series of worlds blasting other ships with lasers and homing missiles. I think it was called Space something, but I always loved the simulator nature of it. As you flew around, the whole cabinet would rotate and tilt to match your moves. Hopefully somebody can remind me of this one. It's been too long.

Sounds like one of the arcade versions Galaxy Force or Galaxy Force II:

Okay, I literally just got an account to ask about two games I can't find names for.

The second game was for the PC, and was 2D. It was about this girl with brown hair who like went into this imaginary world of hers where her bully also turned into snake. There were like four different worlds. I think all of the worlds were like pizza world or dessert world, things like that. The monsters she had to defeat were food, like some were pieces of cheese (I don't really know for sure). At one point in the game, there's a series of slides at a playground and you have to pick the right one for a puzzle.

That's all I really know and I would LOVE to find out those names!

Does anybody think they can figure out what the second game is? I would love to find it out. I'd definitely buy it again. I remember playing it all the time. And I think there was also a mini-game with one of the characters on the disc too. The mini-game also talked about a sequel (that I never got).
