[QUOTE=Spektugalo;50352510]Maybe Sid Meier's Pirates (or the remake)? Or Piraten: Herrscher der Karibik? Seems to be a Port Royale based game, there are some gameplay videos on youtube.[/QUOTE] The second suggestion was it, thanks man I greatly appreciate it.
Okay, one game i recall playing on school computers in 1st to 3rd grade, but i can't imagine it being too popular. So basically you play in a top down perspective, as a guy with a gun, running around collecting like 5 bunnies scattered arround the map, which would then propell you to the next map. Eventually you'd progress to other worlds, with different themes and enemies, and if you lost all your lives you had to start all over. I recall you could find a plethora of guns, and fondly recall a flamethrower i liked to use. The first few stages were jungle and dinosaur themed. I think it might have had 16 bit graphics, but im really not sure about that.
There was an RC racing game on PS2. One of the vehicles was called Skull Duggery, I remember the cars turning into boats when going in water. But it's so long ago I forgot what else it had. Anyone remember it?

There was a 2d vertical space shooter with Giger-inspired graphics in it, but I fucking can't remember what it was. I remember beating it when i was young
I have remembered a game I played when I was young, around 2000. It was for Windows 2000, a fps. You were some kind of armored guy like in HALO, but for the first level you had to help some bigheaded martians, like the Mars Attacks martian but shorter in heigth. The game was most probably a demo, I never beat it, some of the enemies were like worms that shot fireballs or asteroids from their mouth, they burrowed after attacking and appeared somewhere else. And in the second level, you had an stealth section in which you had to hide as a bush so other aliens with rifles wouldn't notice you. It really looked like HALO, but I can't find any refernce about this on google.

Some wild west gunplay heavy 3D game on the original XBox. I think it was firstperson, and the game started off with you in prison, and you needed to duck under an obstacle to continue, but the default control scheme didn't have a duck button bound. Remember almost nothing past that, was at a relative's house and I played it for ten minutes. The world map was styled after old western rolled up yellowed paper maps. He showed me the last level, and I think it was at a train depot or something? Remember it being kinda shitty graphics-wise, but it was og xbox so that doesn't help, probably. It was 10 years ago, and I remember the game box looking kinda old, so it could've been anywhere from '03 to '06.
I remember two lego games that used to be on their website that I have been dying to play again. One game was a 3D platformer thingy where you wanted to get into a studio (I think) and generally was pretty impressive during a time where webgames didn't really use unity or the search. ANother one was a MMO thing? You collected cards to deck out your little minifigure dude, and it had a great music creator game. The first tutorial quests involved honey and combining things to get further. Would love to play again. Edit: Sadly, I don't think they exist anymore.
This thread makes me weep for all that we lost when Bonus.com went away.
This is a long shot but here goes It's an old point and click game, I don't remember whether it was on playstation or PC. All I remember is it looked creepy as hell when I was a kid but I don't think it was an horror game, more like creepy comedy of sort. There was a driving minigame where you're running over cows. At some point you stop in some sort of small shithole of a town cause I think you just run out of gas I remember one of the puzzles involved grabbing a coin out of a toilet
Been stumped for years on this one It's a Spongebob game for the Wii (i think). It had the standard multiple playable characters and such. The best hint I can give is that one or more levels took place in either a deep trench or underground. There is green acid everywhere and you stand on red platforms that float on it. The stage music was significantly more memorable than the rest. I cannot remember its plot. Fuck it's a longshot with this one but... Worth a try.
I cant think of the name of this game that was in alpha or some early beta. You're in an apartment and it's basically you walking around the apartment listening to a phone call of a man saying he has your family kidnapped and you need to murder people to save their lives. You end up ordering a prostitute over the phone to come to the apartment and you're supposed to murder her but the demo cuts over before that happens. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

Been trying to remember this one for a while now, but it plays like Soldier Heroes of ww2 but it takes place in the future after a plague nearly wiped out humanity. I think you were a group of mercs and you could attack bases controlled by people that were like slavers or something, you could liberate slaves and they would join you. It was out in the early to mid 2000's.

It was a motorbike game that had an open world type mode where you could go to different areas and complete stunt challenges. You could also race a helicopter at one point, I think.
It was a FPS Vietnam war game where the protagonist was black (you notice this when he carries one his buddies), the last level started with you inside a plane and then landing on a base and there was a part where someome got killed and the guy with glasses goes crazy.

I'm looking for a fantasy/medieval themed strategy for the PC from the beginning of the 90s. It had graphics comparable to Master of Magic: [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPykHcgWONA[/URL] You couldn't order your units to kill monsters, you could only put a bounty on them. You could construct and upgrade buildings. There were guilds (maybe a rogue guild) and each could have 4 units. There was a campaign and a world map. It's not Majesty or Knights and Merchants. ***UPDATE*** It was Stronghold (1993).
So my eldest sibling remembers playing a game on the pc (I'm assuming around 2000-2003?) Where you are a kid on a skateboard riding through a street, her description was mostly vague but she says that some old man can be seen in a window watching you or something. I have no idea what it is but it sounds fucking creepy.
Sega megadrive/genesis game with an overhead-ish view of a big field/cliffside. Pretty sure you could either play as or were fighting orcs and goblins. Only thing I remember is a big door and character portraits at the bottom of the screen.

Years ago on the Original Xbox (Year or so after Halo 2 came out) I played this Sci Fi FPS that the most memorable weird dome bug-eyed cockpit gunships that I can't forget, one mission had you riding in one, shooting at ones chasing you, Had a good few vehicles you could use in the campaign, and I think had multiplayer with large maps and vehicles. Everything looks super unreal tournament-y, but I'm sure wasn't apart of the series. Main character didn't wear a helmet and had stealthy looking armor on. The enemy you fought was practically super heavy armor sci-fi soldiers. I hope this is enough I just recently remembered the gunships and for the life of me can't find what game it was apart of.

I doubt anyone remembers/knows this, but what the hell. An old buddy of mine (we don't talk anymore, else I'd ask him) used to play this browser game. It was like a turn based RPG sorta thing, but instead of having skills, you'd have pickup lines. You'd create your guy, go and make a lobby, and play 1v1 against people trying to pickup this AI controlled girl. Don't remember much else other than the graphics/aesthetic was pretty terrible, and it was a free browser-based game.
Managed to remember another game I don't recall the title of. I'm pretty sure it was a computer game, and I can't quite remember the genre of the game, I think it was 3D with pre-rendered backgrounds, and I believe the camera angle was fixed. I want to say point and click, but I don't think that's a safe bet. I don't actually remember a whole lot of the game because I never got very far, but the parts I do remember is that pretty much very close to the start of the game, you're in this one area, and while you're walking through it, there was a puddle of water, or oil, and if you walk over it, you'd get a cutscene of you slipping and falling down on your head. Afterward, you'd get back up rubbing your head. If you did it a second time though, you'd slip like before, but you'd crack your head and die. Not too long after this portion, you'd also encounter a woman who ambushes you and demands that you turn around slowly and disarm. You actually needed to figure out how to disarm, because I remember if you fail to disarm, she shoots you, and if you try to shoot her, she shoots you before you can manage it. That's about all I can remember from it.
i remember playing a racing game (i think) where you could smash your car so much that the only thing left would be a single fucking wheel :v: i remember a level with chickens and a ramp, but that might be another game i also remember the menu having a dodge viper on it but I'm not sure i played it on the pc
