[QUOTE=Voideye;42592870]Dinosaur Adventure 3D? [video=youtube;Z6zW9cMCL8o]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6zW9cMCL8o[/video][/QUOTE] Holy mother of fuck thank you. I played this game non-stop in school when I was a kid.
I'm also looking for a dinosaur "game" of sorts. It would have been around 1998-2002 when I played it. It was more like an information game, where you read and listen about the different types of dinosaurs. I was really young, and I remember the music was creepy to me, and the game scared me in a way. Extra information like the picture on the CD case and the name feel like they are on the tip of my tongue, I just can't seem to remember. EDIT: I guess the game I was looking for was also called Dinosaur Adventure, but it was released before Dinosaur Adventure 3D and was less popular. This brings back a ton of memories.. I wonder if I can find somewhere to download this. [IMG]http://homeoftheunderdogs.net/games/d/dinosaurad/dinosaurad.jpg[/IMG]
I'm trying to remember a game I played when I was super young (Sometime before 2002.) It was on PC was a sort of adventure/puzzle game, perhaps a series. The most specific detail I remember is that there were two animal characters and at the start you had to play hide and seek outside of a house in a forest. I also remember one puzzle where you were in a spooky dark living room with a captain's portrait above a fireplace. There was lighting and hourglasses and you had to fuck around with letters. Here is a very loose depiction of where you played hide and seek [img]http://i.imgur.com/ADexBgt.png[/img]
I'm trying to remember a game from the mid 2000's I think. it was a puzzle game set in the wild west(the kind where you pick up items and you can merge them together to create items to solve the puzzles), you started out on this farmhouse and the horse travel was powered by carrots. I remember the landscape being quite expansive too, and it used a map system to travel everywhere.
Over the past few years I've been on & off looking for an old RTS/Tower Defence type of game, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of it, and no matter what I search in google that is even vaguely related yeilds no results. Here's what I remember: Each map would have these static unit factories that you could capture, and they would then send units against the enemy, but you couldn't directly control the units nor build any of the factories yourself. You could, and would, built various kinds of turrets and it was a major part of the game, some maps would require you to make a long line of turrets to advance if you didn't start with any kind of unit factory. There was also special abilities kind of things where you could cause meteor strikes and bombings runs and stuff like that. Also I remember the resource factories/refineries or whatever would be this big hexagon-type structure with a giant turning gear on top. The graphics looked a lot like this: [IMG]http://img.gawkerassets.com/img/18ogxijwij43ujpg/original.jpg[/IMG]
It was an old RTS set in the roman empire. Your goal was to build a city. You could make roads, bathouses and aqueducts. Every now and then, citizens would die of disease wich was illustrated with an image portraying a skull i think. I can't remember if there was actual war in the game, but i have no memory of soldiers or anything like that.
Pretty vague one here, but I remember a fairly old title many, many years ago.. The only thing I can remember about it was that there was one portion where you were in a car or vehicle of some sort, the setting was either a jungle or forest from what I remember, and you were avoiding hazards. It had a fairly cinematic feel to it, along with a player death scene where you could crash into a log, or tree I think. May have also even been a pit, or cliff you could drive off of as well and get another death sequence.
I remember playing a game at my friends house ages ago. It was a strategic game, Red Alert style, but where one of the teams were farmers/hillbilles, and you could train pigs to attack with. I remember the style of it to be pretty cartoony, but I have no idea what year it's from.

Well this is a longshot, the game is from maybe 2000plusish. It was a strategy game set in asia, decent graphics. You could also domesticate horses, possibly other animals. Make ricefarms etc. Don't remember a lot of the combat. The demo had a level with pink trees, that's all I remember.
[QUOTE=Nanamil;43276553]mmh maybe Pax Romana ? Was it a game from before or after 2005 ?[/QUOTE] No, that's not it. It was made before 2005, possily before 2000.

I believe it had a one word name as well. and one of the shops in town you could slide out the second floor on a zipline once you bought the zipline handle, and then you'd end up in a stable or something.

[QUOTE=RedNick27;43298081]Might be Battle Realms.[/QUOTE] It most definitely is. I just played it.
When I was in elementary school, for a few months, there was some game console set up, all I remember is that the controller was something like the one for the Atari 2600(one joystick, one or two buttons). For all I know, it could have actually been a 2600. The school had like 4 games for it, and one of them was some space shooter, from a top down perspective. The player could move in all 4 directions, and there was some really basic background music loop that would change depending on whether the ship was moving vertically or horizontally. I also remember it was very pixelated, but I don't think the colors were as basic as what was on the 2600. There were also enemy space station things that you had to destroy, the shape of them vaguely resembled this [img]http://i.imgur.com/NuLNEX6.png[/img] You had to align yourself with the gaps in it, and shoot the shiny core in the middle of it to destroy it.
Some sort of platformer with a fox and a bear, with the only enemies I can remember being were robots.
An RTS with similar graphics that remind me of starcraft 1, there were like bio-domes or someshit and robots, and there was a voice that was very metalic and it basicly sounded like someone talking down a copper pipe or someshit
I wanted to remember a pretty obscure game that is a Hack n Slash ala Devil May Cry, it has a few years and its only for the pc, i think tho im not enterily sure it had "22" in its title, i also remember it was done by some japanese studio.
What I remember: - It's a really old game. Probably like from 1995-1998. - Platform Windows - The game was pretty much a war ship simulator. You could use F1, F2, F3, F4, F5 etc to switch positions on the ship. F1 was the captains' seat, where you could drive the boat in first person. F2 was the left gunner F3 was the right gunner F4 was the cannoneer etc. You had a map, and could see on which islands enemies were located, and then you had to 'drive the boat' over there, and light them up with the available weaponry. Can't remember what it's called, at all.

[QUOTE=Satane]I saw it on kickstarter or something similar, wasn't that long ago. It was a space combat game where people would team up and take different roles inside a spaceship. One would be an engineer, captain etc. There was a video where they walked around the ship in first person.[/QUOTE] Pretty sure you're talking about Pulsar: Lost Colony. I backed it.

Okay, this is a long shot. I doubt anyone will get this but it's worth a shot. It was some old PC game on a CD, don't remember when I played it. It was this platformer game where there were a group of kids and a dog named Io. It took place in space or something... and the kids were in like elementary school. The antagonist had something to do with ice, I think. This has been bothering me for a while now. There was a piece of music in it that I distinctly remember but I'm not sure how to convey it through a forum post.

reviving this because its driving me crazy it's a ps2 or xbox original game where the first mission is on something like a spaceship, for whatever reason (i think its blowing up and shit) you need to make your way through it and strap yourself onto some part of the wall. the wall puts you in a spacesuit and you're put into a pod and sent down to some rusty mars looking planet. then i think aliens come and all this shit goes down, i never got further than that mission but i remember it.
