That Game you can't Remember

[Zigot66]

An SNES Fighting game where you play (in the single player anyway) as either a regular guy, or a guy who looks kinda similar, but with a robot body. You a street fighter, a hoverboarding robot in a jungle and a whole slew of other strange characters (I think one of them is like a jester and juggles, he bounces the balls off of you as an attack).

I can't remember what it was called because even when I did have it, the label was damaged so you couldn't see it. I would love to track this game down, but without a name, it's pretty well impossible (you try searching through every fighting game to come out on the SNES).


EDIT: Also a PC game, i think it was called "Fury" or something like that, it was a flight/fighter simulator and you were shooting down these alien ships. I only had the demo and I can't seem to find anything about it, so it may never have been finished (that or I just got the name wrong).

EDIT (again): Also an SNES RPG that I want to call "Dragon Scale" but I know it's not, the plot had something to do with climbing a really tall tower and some plot point about your dad. If you can't tell yet, many of my memories have become quite muddled, so I might end up adding some more to this.

Microsoft Fury 3 (or just "Fury3") by Terminal Reality, released in Aug 1995. There's also a nearly identical game by the same developer, Terminal Velocity, released in May 1995. These games are a mix of Descent and Magic Carpet, both are pretty fun, although I doubt they aged well.

THAT'S IT!!!

I wonder if I could get it to run on a newer computer...

EDIT: Also, thanks.

A Sega Genesis platformer where you played as a red dot.

Cool Spot, awesome game, was based on a 7up mascot oddly enough

I used to own a Rush game for my N64 but I cannot remember which one it is. The two definite things I remember about it are Mountain Dew power-ups and an unlockable taxi.

It was a gladiator game on PS2, you played an upstart slave, bought your own weapons and armor, and could also scavenge them from fights, and It even had animal battles. I loved It but after I rented It I could never track It down again. Plus It was cool because It had choices, and oppurtunities, not every plot point was handed to you.

Perhaps it was Colosseum: Road to Freedom? I always meant to check out that game and Shadow of Rome (another PS2 gladiator game), but never had the chance...

Skip Colosseum: RtF. It's a very below average game. Arguably the worst one I've ever played.

Top down racing game from around 1997 (possibly), basicly it was top down you could see the entire track and you could upgrade your cars tyres, engine and pitstop. Was pretty awesome because of the upgrade system and the tracks were pretty sweet. I seem to remember the name Nitro anyways played it at a friends house way back then and always wanted to get a copy. Would be awesome if anyone knew where to get it.

interstate 76: Nitro?

There was a game I used play for the PS2... it was about supersoldiers who rebelled against their creators (Yeah, I know, not a hugely original story, but whatever). You could play as like, 4 or 5 different characters, and the ending changed depending on things like how many civilians you killed during the course of the game. The end boss fight (at least the one I played) had you facing off some government guy in a mech suit. I really want to play this game again.

State of Emergency?

Hahaha thanks it was interstate '76. Ahhh good times.

So yeah we all have that game that we loved to play but we forgot it's name. I had a game that was driving cars with guns on them to kill other cars with guns on them. It came on 2 CDs one blue and one orange, it was released in 1990-2003. It was awesome but i can't remember it's name. So post that game you forgot and try to figure out the names of other people's game to help them out.

that kinda sounds like carmageddon.

I don't think I really have one of those games, plenty of movies, but not so much games... I have a tendency to remember titles really well. except this one game... but I think that was the originaly gauntlet, top down rpg, four players, sega genesis, that was flipping AWESOME!

I remember once reading a review (I have no idea WHEN it was) of a jet flight simulator. While I'm usually not into this kind of games THIS one (according to the review) had nonlinear champaign and "kinda" rpg elements in which you had multiple pilots.
Those pilots could also eject over enemy terrain get captured and tortured (and that gave you proper icon in the main base).

Sadly it's a game I never played...
I can't find the exact magazine in which I read the review, but this game has been kinda stalking me for like 2 years. I have NO IDEA what was it's name or was it's flying part even good. But at the time I was reading the article it fired me up so much that I instantly wanted to buy it... only I was young and didn't have the money.

So yeah long story short. A 8/10 game that I would probably very like and yet never played it... ehhh...

Uhhh, now im pulling this one out of my google behind, but Chuck Yeager's Air Combat?

Interstate 76? Interstate 82? Two discs is throwing me, I have I76 somewhere I can't remember how many discs that had. If you pressed the G button did your partner read poems over the CB radio?

I haven't forgotten any of the games I liked, the crap games tend to blur together. As do all the Breakout/Arkanoid clones I've ever played.

Hahaha yeah it's Interstate '76. Thanks!

Srry for double post

No it wasn't that, it didn't contain shooting of any type it was pure racing, fixed camera so you could see the full track, overtime tyres and body degraded if you crashed (hence need for faster pitcrew upgrades and more durable tyres).

FOUND IT!!!

Nitro by 3do and I found a download!

Sounds kinda like Illusion of Gaia, tower of babel, your dads an explorer? loved that game

It was a good game, but I know that's not it, I actually have Illusion of Gaia.

No, it wasn't that. As I remember, the game looked kind of like Gears of War... but with more colors.

 

[_Cake_]

it was ffor the ps1 and you could play as a puppet, who could transform into other animal, once he killed tehm. Or a girl who hated the taste of pumpins, And she had giant rings for weapons

Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure?

That's the only game I can think of for the ps1 where u play as puppets. Is it a rpg?

 

[Misterian]

It was a PC game around 2000ish.

You played as a cop trying to arrest members of a gang called 'wildcats' I think...

Near the end the game went all trippy and some stuff about warlocks.

I know that game! Urban Chaos!

I used to have it on the PS1.

Anyway, the closet game I can barely remember was a sort of JRPG for the PS1.

I can't remember the title, but you could pick 1 of several characters to star as, one of them's a robot that crashes to an earth-like planet from an alien spaceship.

Game: Involved hatching and levelling up dragons by battling. (RPGish kind pokémon-ish)
Era: 2000 (I played it late 2000 around September)
Platform: Dreamcast

Thats all I remember... any ideas?

Dinosaur?
Like the little movie game they made for the Dreamcast...if I get this right I deserve some sort of reward...

Thats threads of fate he is asking about, 100% sure, i cant be wrong.
Its not actually about a conventional puppet, its just a guy...that appeared normal, but was originally a pup...well there is wikipedia for that.
Rue was the name of the puppet guy and the girl that hated pumpins was Mint
