Multiplayer game that's still in development where one team defends a base and one team prepares and then breaches the base. Graphics are blocky and both team get different load-outs to choose from.
I've been looking for the thread but I can't seem to find it
Looking for an old ps2 game, I don't remember much, here goes:
- You played as a car
- You could talk to other cars
- There was a large open-world segment
- You could upgrade your car to have small things like wings or a boost
- You could find hidden areas, like one underwater and a rainbow one??
- There was a giant loop in the middle of one town
- The was like an island setting
I've been wondering for a while but this song is familiar, anyone know if there's a game with a similar song?

You might be thinking of [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cars_%28video_game%29]Cars[/url], a game based on the Pixar film. It seems to have some of the features you mentioned, such as an open world.

[QUOTE=FKop_Dragon;46227883]Game for sega, might have been the super nintendo. You're a knight or something and you travel the world trying to find four... map pieces or crystals or something, each time you use one you're transported to the next world and have to find the next. You buy troops along the way and battle occurs when you touch an enemy on the main map where you then go to a separate battle screen like Final Fantasy. Only thing I remember is you're not supposed to fight the ghosts if you only had peasants because they would die and bolster the enemies forces. The cover I think also had a dragon on it.[/QUOTE]
PS2. Heroes of Might & Magic: Quest for the Dragon Bone Staff I believe was the name of it.

[QUOTE=Jarokwa;46415472]This reminds me of a game I cannot recall the name of, it was an obviously Korean MMO and it was all about summoning demons and shit to be your pet, you start in some futuristic city and the first levelling zone is some valley or something, I also vaguely remember being able to acquire new demons by capturing them or whatever.[/QUOTE]
Eudemons?

Nope, thanks for the suggestion! Found it myself though. It was [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_Trip_Adventure]Road Trip Adventure[/url]
had all sorts of plug n play controllers once and there are two games on the ones that i cant find
one of them you were like a green blob coming out of a sewer and you had to move around and get more green stuff while avoiding enemies
the other was more like a platformer and had these enemies that were hands and they would grab you, there were more but i cant remember them
this was back in 2008 and i got them from walmart but i cant really remember a whole lot about them
EDIT: found the second one, kid chameleon

I got Kid Chameleon for my seventh birthday. More than twenty years later I showed it to my nephew and he was just as blown away as I was.
Anyway, the first one is probably [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ooze"]The Ooze[/URL].
I remember playing this SNES game on a PS2 emulation disk.
You play as Donald Duck and you have a gun. If you stand idle for sometime, Donald will aim his gun from left to right until you move him again.
This has been bugging me for a bit now. It was posted on Facepunch not too long ago. It was a free to play topdown zombie shooter with skill trees and such.
I have a slight oddball here. A flash game actually.
Many years ago, what i also think used to be on shockwave.com.
This sort of pixel'y, 2D platform / space exploration / puzzle thing. I think it was about some orange-haired dude, Leroy or something in that direction, and he had his dog with him in a not so big spaceship. And then he would travel from planet to planet, ... In our solar system i think, and go back and forth trying to solve puzzles, to disarm a huge bomb planted on earth.
I've been looking through the complete list of games on Shockwave, and something suggests it's been taken off their site entirely.
I'm going to ask this here again
There's this first/third-person medieval RPG that is sorta like TES (The graphic would be close to Morrowind). The name was 'Wings-something' and I remember there is a glider sort of contraption at the beginning of the game and you have to get certain item to make it work as a quest of some sort.
The game has a functioning day/night cycle and you have to eat food and rest to monitor your health (not sure). At night theres big fucking bear that roam around (again, not sure) so I usually hide in a house when I played as a kid. The inventory is a 3D rotating menu and there are items like meat and cheese that you can steal off shelves of other people's house (I think I got caught once stealing cheese from an inn). The NPCs are not protected so you can just kill them for their items.
I only played the demo which only last 7-day and after that you can still play the game but it prompts you to buy the game every 10 seconds.
Damn shit, i actually found it after i remembered the detail of the bomb disarming, which came to me while i actually wrote the post.

Lenny Loosejocks.[/B] The Leroy i remember was somewhat right, except it only occurs in one game. :v:

Waaaaay back from 2002. But yep, all the different games from shockwave are long gone...
Here's a game that came to me recently, but for the life of me I can't remember a lot of details about it. From what I recall, it was an old adventure game, maybe 1990s or 2000s. I only remember a bit about the intro, something to do about the antagonist going around with a freeze ray and freezing monsters into ice cubes. The protagonist winds up in his own bathroom and locks it, and the game starts there.
I think the first puzzle of the game was to get out of the bathroom through a window that was too high up to reach normally, and I remember that if you were foolish enough to go over and unlock the door it gave you a game over with the antagonist freezing you.
So, there is that particular old DOS game that was in top-down perspective, wherein the player was in a maze-like level wherein he has to get through dirt/various levels of stones using picks, explosives, and evil exploding clones of oneself. In the meanwhile, the player has to escape monsters that are spawned within the maze. In addition, player has to collect gold, which they may use to purchase upgrades/items in an item shop. It also had pvp hotseat play.

That's what the music reminded me of, at least.
[QUOTE=Orkel;42189567]Anyone remember this? It was an RTS game that came out probably between 1994-2004, the box came with a comic about the game that was quite gritty and bloody. The comic included pillboxes that rose up from the ground, and some kind of big alien birds that swooped down and ripped the heads off some sci-fi soldiers, with really detailed drawings. Units in the game included some kind of mechs, and the style overall was C&C-like 2D isometric maybe? I remember playing it with my childhood friend and have no idea whatsoever what it could have been. I remember calling the mechs "invalids", dunno why, maybe their in-game name was similar and it just catched on with us kids.[/QUOTE]
While I'm not sure about the comic, that sounds like Dark Colony.

I'm trying to remember this game for the PSP, pretty sure it was one of the earlier games, it was a top down RPG built mainly around physical combat
Okay doing a reverse of this. I remember seeing somebody looking for an RTS game where you controlled little colored blob people that you sent out across the world to pick up objects to use as weapons or tools to complete the campaign or fight others in the skirmish mode. I played it a lot as a kid, but couldn't remember the name of it at the time. Well, I found it. It's Gruntz.

There was this game I played aeons ago that was free on the internet, it was a download. I think there was even a thread here on FP. It was really very similar to Jazzpunk's style, and the first objective of the game was to poison this red-headed guy's drink at a party in this really high-end multistory building. After that, I remember walking along tight-ropes between areas, and at one point ended up near a furnace or something? It played more-or-less exactly with Jazzpunk's gameplay style, in that you move around like a floating camera in first person and interact with various objects, and you can jump. There wasn't any wanton swatting people with fly-swatters, or anything like that. Sorry for the bad details, I played it when I was a lot younger :v:
This was a game my aunt would play on the PS1 or PS2, it was a theme park manager game and in different worlds the loading screens had different characters according to each world. I remember two of them, a tiger and some kind of invertebrate (Bee? Worm?)

Them Park World?
Played it around year 2000 maybe? It's a pirate game of sorts in which you sail around the world doing pirate-y stuff. I distinctly remember sailing into a city where it then turned into some sort of top-down strategy game where you then saw the port and suddenly you had control of a buccaneer type of force and would have to take over the city. I remember playing it on a PC, windows 95/98.

Sounds like Sid Meier's Pirates!
1997 - 2001, there was a demo for an RTS on mac os 9 included in a MacAddict cd. It has a descriptiong similar to what the other guy here posted, you could only play 3 missions in the demo.
You have a base that is a big ass tank and you can deploy it and from there build units and stuff, it was better looking than the strategy game you posted so it's not the same.
Looking for it, please help.

It didn't have 3D graphics as far as I remember.
