I'm trying to remember an old Star Trek game. Basically you wandered around the ship trying to solve a mystery (the exact nature of which I don't remember). I do remember that you type in complete sentences and the game had a pretty robust dialogue tree. I'm not sure if this is enough information, but someone has to remember this game.

I'm 99% sure its Star Trek. I remember speaking to Wharf on the bridge. I'm pretty sure I'm not crazy, but looking at lists of Star Trek games hasn't helped me. I think from its from the early 90s. Set in the Next Generation universe, though I'm not sure if it takes place on the Enterprise or not. I wish I could remember more details, this is eating me up.

My memory of this is just so faint because I was so young, but it was an fps possibly with lasers, possibly set on the moon, released mid-early 90s, Doom time I guess. Worth a shot.

Worth a shot. By any chance was it... Rebel Moon Rising? Google that name, especially image search. It's ultra-obscure, and I'm surprised even I remember it, given that I only played a demo of it for about five minutes, many, many years ago.

Actually I found it, and it wasn't any of those. But by searching for rise of the triad I somehow stumbled upon Star Wars: Dark Forces! from 1995. Badass! Thanks for the help.

PC game, I THINK it was a point-and-click adventure game. Maybe with mini games. I think you played as an Olympic ring. It had to do with the Olympics anyway. It's driving me crazy.

I don't think this is worthy of a new thread so I may as well ask here: There was a game on the PS1 that was not entirely dissimilar to Pokemon, you kinda hunted and trained these animals then bred them together to make new combinations. I only played a demo of it, and this was few years ago now, but I'd love to try and pick it up now. Any idea what I'm talking about? It wasn't a digimon game... EDIT: Or any Monster Rancer iteration, as far as I'm aware (though those games were great!)

shen posted:2.) I just remembered another game, it was a sidescrolling beat'em up for the SNES for 1-2 players where you were both robots and could pick different parts to have in your robot. I remember not having the pneumatic legs or whatever that let me jump far, and this causing my death when there was a chasm we had to jump over. It is possible the game was for NES but I am pretty sure I played it on the Super. Late as hell, but The Ninja Warriors.

Sorry if there's another thread for this, I looked and couldn't find it. I'm trying to remember a scrolling fighter game from the late 80s / early 90s and I'm pretty sure it was both a coin-op and Genesis game. It was in the style of Streets of Rage or Final Fight and it had a level that took place on a blimp or a flying ship of some kind (I think the last level?)

I'm trying to remember a game where you had to destroy another persons base as one of a Helicopter, Tank or a Jeep which all had different stats. It was from a topdown view and on the PC, I wish I could remember more.

When I was 7 or 8 years old (1992-1993) I was over a friend's house and played a really fun console game. I can't remember what system it was on, but it wasn't Nintendo. Might have been an uncommon system like neogeo or 3DO. It was really Japanese, colorful, good happy music. You're in the clouds flying around and there's like colorful balls or birds or robots or some poo poo. What game is this?

I first posted this in the Ask/Tell thread small questions thread and it was pointed out to me that there already is a thread here for my specific question. I hope one of you can help because this has been driving me crazy.quote:I'm trying to remember the name of a free/independant multiplayer game that was posted on these forums a few years back and that a lot of people played. I've searched google for over an hour now and it's like this game never existed. e; Also, for some reason I keep thinking the name of the game was 'Harmonics', or some variation thereof.

I've been wondering about this game for almost as long as I can remember. The game was a sidescrolling 2d platformer, it was very much alike Commander Keen but I think it predated it. I played it in the early nintees, but I think it was way older than that. All I remember is that you could enter doors that led to (the next level?), that it had green algee things that could kill you growing out from the walls, and that it had jetpacks which you could pickup and they had limited fuel so you couldn't use them for very long periods of time. I don't know if you had some sort of weapon other than that, but I am fairly sure it did. Sorry for the rather unspecific description, if you can figure this out I'll have a big load of my mind.

I just remembered one of my favorite games from yeeeeears ago that I'd love to play again now. I'm sorry, I remember next to nothing about it, but here goes: It's about offroad racing, and it was from the fairly early days of 3D being really popular. I remember one of the big things from it is that the cars are deformable, that if you wreck hard enough or [what I used to love to do] drop your car off a cliff, you could tweak the suspension / break off wheels / etc and the cars would drive around all retarded. One of the cars, my favorite, looked exactly like the Bandito from San Andreas: Heeeeeelp! e. AHAHAHA 5 goddamn seconds in Gamefaqs and I find it: 1nsane!

I asked this in the last thread and wasnt able to solve the mystery. I played the demo of this game on a PC Gamer demo CD in the mid-90s. I swear the name was something like 'Dark Something' I always thought it was Dark Sun, but I dont think it is. Graphically it was similar to later Kings Quest games, really nicely detailed sprites. I dont remember much about music or sound though. You controlled your character(who was a prince maybe?) with the numberpad/arrow keys, and you would have switch between 'Search/Interact' and 'Combat' modes with a key. Different key combos would yield different attacks. It took place in a fantasy/desert setting too. I cant for the life of me figure out what this is called. Ive always wanted to play the full game though. Maybe it never became anything more than a demo?

I have one, I played a WWII turn based strategy game sometime between 96-98. It was a PC game, where you moved various troops artillery, armor around a 2d map. I remember you could be just about any country, Germans attacking Russia, American, ect. I can’t for the life of me remember the name, anyone have any idea?

Was it played on hexagons -- and called Steel Panthers? Great games! SSI also made a bunch of other WWII games, like Panzer Commander.

There was a first person shooter for the PS2 or Xbox where you hardly ever had a gun, and when you picked one up from a dead guy it would have only like five or six bullets in it that you had to conserve. I know it's really vague but it's been driving my friend and I crazy trying to think of what it was called.

What was the name of that game on computer where you were some sort of polygonal tank and you shot green bullets at other polygonal tanks? They had a couple of different tanks you could choose to be but they all looked the same and only differed in speed, armor, something else...

I played this one when I was pretty young, so I admit I may not remember it all too clearly, but one time I rented an NES game that was primarily an indoor platformer (like that dragon-slaying labyrinth game where you pick a member of some sorta family in a treehouse, including their pink pet monster that monsters wouldn't attack), but when you came to a boss fight you'd start flying and it'd become kinduva side-scrolling shooter. Wish I could think of better details than this, but as far as I can remember it was entirely indoors, most of the ground/walls/ceilings were tan, and the bosses were generally shades of grey. I remember one of them being an angel (and another a death's head angel) and it being a real son of a bitch. Any ideas?
