Found this useful wiki page, helped me find the game I was looking for anyway. (it's called Battle Realms)[url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_video_games[/url]
I used to have this CD of DOS/win98 games that had a ton of shitty little games like Carmen Sandiego and one where you were a bug spray can shooting down bees and Twinsen's Oddysey and some others. Would give anything to go back and grab a copy.
[QUOTE=Recurracy;37841128]It was a RTS game like Command and Conquer, but had much weirder units, probably alien or something so I guess it was futuristic. I think one level was in a forest-kind of setting. I think it was for Windows 95/98.
This is all I remember but I'd like to find it so bad again. I got it for free in a cereal box, but I just can't remember what it was. It sure wasn't the old Warhammer RTS game, I found that again a week ago.[/QUOTE]
uhh video game prizes in cereal boxes?
what the fuck why didn't i ever get this?!
I remember I got some Kellogs video game in a cereal box once, you played as the Kellogs tiger and The coco pops monkey thing in a game like Super Mario. It was actually really fun and quite challenging, no idea what it was called.
FUCK YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

this game was so fucking awesome
There was this game I loved to play but I could never remember it's name. It was like a JRPG version of Psychonauts where you had this weird bunny like thing and the first person's dreams you went into was this blond girl and her level was made out of gold and you fought money bags.

Fuck,I used to play that game.
i also remember this game that was flintstones-themed, and it was about healthy habits or whatever
whenever you picked an unhealthy food, it made fart noises.
There was this one older game for the mac, it was a maze type game. The cursor would change depending on what your character was supposed to be, it was a horse at one point I remember. I forget what the game was called.
Some game that was on the PS1 Demo disc that was purple and like had a bunch of cubes that you had to make your way through. It was like virtual reality and was a test of your puzzle sovle abilities... Idk....
Also Ps1 and some game where you would set traps for people to kill them. it was japenese esque.... idk.... thats all i remember
There was a game for PC, I can't remember anything about it but- it MAY have been included with a book,and everything was reddish and there were spaceships and robots.

I remember something very similar!
Like you said, it was a C&C type rts but in the far future where you had 3-4 races of aliens and one human race to choose from. The game was kinda dark and I remember this one feature where you typed in the name of a planet and the game put you in a random map.

Dark Reign, surprisingly made by the people who made the Trainz series. They should have continued doing this series, would have been pretty beast.

First sentence of the gameplay section: [QUOTE]The gameplay is that of a sci-fi real-time strategy, similar to that of Command & Conquer. [/QUOTE]
I once got Age of Empires in a Nutri-grain box, got me addicted to strategy ever since.
There was this one racing game on the N64 where the main point was supposedly to beat your opponents to the finish line; but to anyone playing it for longer than five minutes it was [i]clearly[/i] to bank off of raised corners to get your car to flip seventy times in the air and instantly explode when it inevitably landed upside-down. There was even a "stunt" map based around this, which looked like something you'd get if you plopped the Jigsaw Killer inside Tron. The game also crumpled your car model in certain areas if you crashed the right ways, which was pretty neat tech-wise at the time, and every level had hidden Mountain Dew cans which could unlock more cars if collected.
Yeah, Mountain Dew cans. Even back then I saw that as pretty sad advertising scheme.
There was this PS1 game that I remember I rented from the library and it was like werewolves and vampires and ghosts were all actually aliens and you were an FBI agent or something like that. It was very reminiscent of X Files. I cant remember if it was an fps or tps.

IDK if it was dark reign since there were only two sides for both DR and DR2 if I recall correctly
DR2 was one of my favorite RTSes of all time. it still is. it was so good
I remember a similar RTS that had graphics not unlike Warzone 2100 - but you couldn't build your own units. that's the best description i can give. I remember one of the maps in the demo was snowy, another map was like on Mars or something

First one sounds like Kurushi.

Second one sounds like Silent Bomber to me, but I have no idea. Silent Bomber was an amazing game nonetheless and everyone should play it.

Could be COMPLETELY wrong. But both were good games and for PS1.
on the other side of this was me being raised on quake and half-life
the love of gore never ended

Hey, don't call people out on their spelling/grammatical errors when you're just as bad, if not, worse.
Look at the title of the thread, it hardly makes sense, and
"Anyway's"
I have two games to share with you guys.
One is an RTS game like Command and conquer where you could build giant-robot parts. Once you built the parts, you had these giant mechs that could easily destroy the enemy base.
The other one is a really old game about this clown who goes hunting. It's so frickin gory. The clown could get mauled by bears and have his face ripped off or he could get strangled to death by the hanging vines.
DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NAMES OF THESE GAMES?
A C64 game, side-scroller.. you were a dude running through, I believe, meadows and forests. You had a bow&arrow, and there were monsters. Fucking scary monsters. Huge scorpions, giant mosquitos, and the like. It was pretty gory. If the mosquito got you, it would suck you dry, the character growing thinner and thinner until the mosquito let him go and he crumpled onto the ground like just a bag of clothes.
I never figured out how to defeat the mosquito.

Nope, that's not it sadly.
Also I don't know if I remember right but I think you could see the units avatar (face, whatever) when you selected him (like in dota or something). Oh and the game as in 3D (I think, my memory is pretty faint).
[QUOTE=Mastahamma;37833528]Here goes nothing
It was some kind of fantasy RTS, it was in 3D, I remember that you could only build certain buildings inside your castle walls and other things like farms only outside. Also, I remember troop formations having bonuses like a wedge formation having a damage bonus, or archers having a rather large damage bonus when firing down hill, I also remember being able to build some sort of effigy from straw, setting it on fire and then getting some kind of badass unit. I also believe the game had the word "Battle" in the name. Any ideas?[/QUOTE]
Warrior Kings: Battles
There was this robocop looking side scroller game we played on the computer (Windows 98?) where you could power up your attack as you progressed through the levels and shoot yellow bullets and what not. I think it was 8bit graphics? or something that looks like it belonged on the NES

There was this one older Lost in Space game I remember I rented at the library, I kept checking it out and renewing it for like three months, I don't know why it enraptured me so much.
